I forgot that you did a NWOBHM feature and really want to read this now, which pages is it on? If I look it will take me an eternity to plough through the thousands of pages in your journal.
Based on what I know of your music tastes, I could never imagine you digging Praying Mantis. |
Page 32 is where it all begins with Praying Mantis, Angelwitch and Trespass
Page 61 has Raven, Cloven Hoof and Venom (yeah)
Page 144 has Tank, Saxon and Wolf
Page 183 has Sweet Savage, Girlschool and
Page 184 has Diamond Head
Still to come in the final part: Tygers of Pan-Tang, Samson and Mama's Boys.
Let me know what you think when you get to read the articles; I'd definitely be interested in your opinion.
