After releasing the remixed and remastered versions of their first seven studio records, BLIND GUARDIAN recently started the pre-order for their next and final three re-issues, “The Forgotten Tales”, “Tokyo Tales” and “Live” on 2CD digipack and 2LP / 3LP gatefold vinyl format, in a variety of limited edition colours. The three re-issues will be out on April 12. Today, the band revealed a new history episode for their re-issue of “The Forgotten Tales”.

Watch the clip here:

“We felt the time is right for another re-release battle. Get yourself prepared for the ‘Tokyo Tales’, ‘The Forgotten Tales’ and the ‘Live’ album releases on Friday by watching this educating 20 minutes talk. Find out why these forgotten tales are worth remembering and how Frederik has turned into the first officially confirmed time traveler in Man’s history.
All good things must come to an end, so it is more than obvious that we had to complete this circle with the release of the three missing albums of our Virgin era. It is great to have this series accomplished in such a great way. I have totally fallen in love with ‘The Forgotten Tales’, again. What a marvelous album”,  comments Hansi Kürsch.
