It was 1987 and four albums were doing seriously heavy rotation:

Def Leppard - Hysteria
Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet
Guns n' Roses - Appetite For Destruction
Whitesnake - s/t (aka Whitesnake '87).

It seemed that wherever I went there was always one of those albums playing. And that was pretty much all I listened to until I heard 'Harvester of Sorrow' on the radio just after '..And Justice For All' was released. From there, I fully immersed myself in metal although, admittedly, with the exception of Metallica and Megadeth it was at the lighter sounding end of the metal scale.
