That cat’s got some voice. I watched it all, a little heavy for me, but good metal for sure. Kept having Kiss flashbacks from the ‘80’s with the makeup and boots though.
I didn't get into Death and Black Metal until my late 30's. The more you listen to the better it gets
These vids are bitter sweet for me for a couple of reasons. My buddy and I wanted to go to the Blizzard concert but our parents wouldn't allow us to. We were 12 at the time. Rhoads left us a couple of months after that Edmonton show. He was a dominant figure in my now close to 40 year guitar and music journey.

Yeah that is a bummer. I remember when the first Ozzy tape came out. I bought that one right away. Still have it in the basement I think; yes I said tape.

He was in mine too. It's a shame we never got to hear more from him.

Shit lots of concerts from Wacken



I always was a Cooper fan, I know he’s not metal but he has the look….


That “Talk Talk” song by The Music Machine on the second page really surprised me. It’s on Cooper’s “Flush the Fashion” album and Cooper didn’t change it one bit. I never knew he did covers.

I don't remember where or when I got the Iron Maiden album. I did go to the concert in 1987 but don't remember buying the album.
Keep good care of it. That's definitely a great collectible for the right person. Wish I would've kept my Def Leppard Pyromania tour baseball shirt I spent $5 for. $12 for the ticket in '83.

Scorpions first album 1972. Michael Schenker on lead guitar. Starts out slow but Michael gets going.

M. Schenker has been around. Really like this from UFO. I used to have some MSG stuff.
This is a great thread, I leave it up and listen to the songs a lot, I always liked heavy music.

Here’s a stupid question for ya…
Look at the second doctor doctor video from like 4:15 to 4:20. That Eddie Van H I see? It’s his hair and sure looks like him…
Matter of fact it sure looks like him on the right looking at the preview. RIP Ed, throat cancer from smoking wasn’t it?

The more I think about it the more I'm pretty sure I didn't buy that album at that concert. Number of the Beast came out well before the Somewhere On Tour 86/87. I think that yellow sticker was a promotional item they sold for something like $1. I just stuck it on that album. Bits and pieces of my memory are coming back and that's starting to be what I remember. It was over 30 years ago.

Yes...I believe NOB came out in '81 or '82 and then they did their first massive world tour in '83 with the World Piece Tour. My first Maiden show! This is a tune I've always thought was under represented...

That is a good one. I always liked his voice, it seemed like he could sing opera if he wanted to. It just seems real smooth to me despite being sung basically wide open, you know?
