Operation: Mindcrime is one of the most prolific rock operas ever recorded. And over the last 38 years, Geoff Tate has managed to follow that masterpiece up with parts 2 and 3. Both, up to the task. Both, brilliant in their own right. Operation: Mindcrime 3, has just been released. Geoff Tate was kind enough to indulge me on my fandom. We talk the current album, the continuation of the story, the change in point of view, as well as a bit more into what inspires Geoff Tate, in the music he makes. So sit back, relax, enjoy.
