22. Stallions Of The Highway (Live At Donington 1980)Saxon’s self-titled debut, widely regarded as the first LP to be released by a New Wave Of British Heavy Metal band, was first released in 1979 on the French Carrere label. Originally forming in Barnsley, South Yorkshire as Son Of A Bitch, the quintet of Biff Byford on vocals, Graham Oliver and Paul Quinn on lead guitars, Steve Dawson on bass and Pete Gill on drums, upon being signed, the band swiftly changed their name to Saxon (which their label thought would be more palatable to US audiences). Produced by John Verity at Livingstone Studios, the album starts with the progressively flavoured suite of ‚Rainbow Theme’/’Frozen Rainbow‘. The rest of the album is suffused with a punky energy, and features the classics ‚Stallions Of The Highway‘, ‚Still Fit To Boogie‘ and ‚Militia Guard‘.
Bonus material:
The original album is now supplemented by pre-album demos, recorded when they were still called Son Of A Bitch, their first BBC session, recorded in 1980 for Tommy Vance’s Radio 1 Friday Rock Show, plus live tracks from the inaugural Donington Monsters Of Rock show, 1980. It also features rare and previously unseen photos courtesy of the band’s personal archives as well as extensive liner notes by Classic Rock and Metal Hammer journalist Jerry Ewing, written in co-operation with lead singer Biff Byford.--

Wheels Of Steel is crammed with classics, from set opener ‚Motorcycle Man‘, through the singles ‚Suzi Hold On‘, ‚747 (Strangers In The Night)‘ and title track (both of which cracked the UK To 20), finishing off with ‚Machine Gun‘.

Bonus material:
Strong Arm Of The Law now includes the complete 1982 Kid Jensen B15 session, recorded live in the studio for BBC Radio 1, new mixes taken from the original 24 track tapes of ‘To Hell And Back Again’, ’20,000 Feet’ and ‘Heavy Metal Thunder’, remixed at Abbey Road Studios by Pete Mew. It also features two previously unreleased songs in ‘Mandy’ (an early working version of ‘Sixth Form Girls’, plus the jokey, off-the-cuff ‘Mule Train’. It also features rare memorabilia and extensive liner notes by Classic Rock and Metal Hammer writer Jerry Ewing, written in co-operation with lead singer Biff Byford.--
Sieht auch so aus, dass die ReIssues in das NicePrice-Segment (< 10 EUR) fallen werden, siehe z.B.: [url]http://www.amazon.de/Saxon-Remaster-2009/dp/B001Q2RXIS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1232633960&sr=1-1 [url]http://www.amazon.de/Strong-Arm-Law-Remaster-Saxon/dp/B001Q2RXJ2/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1232633960&sr=1-2 [url]http://www.amazon.de/Wheels-Steel-Remaster-2009-Saxon/dp/B001Q2RXJC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1232633960&sr=1-3

Sehr löblich. Muss in Sachen Saxon sowieso deutlich nachlegen. Eigentlich war Power & The Glory immer mein Favorit, aber die alten Sachen haben im nachhinein deutlich mehr Reiz. Nach Crusader ging bei mir irgendwie nicht mehr viel.

Nach Crusader ging auch bei Saxon nicht mehr viel, also keine Bange

Ich werde da vermutlich aufstocken, da ich die ersten paar Scheiben hauptsächlich auf Vinyl habe.

Immer diese elenden Puristen.;-) Saxon haben mit „Solid Ball Of Rock“ (1991) und vor allem „Unleash The Beast“ (1997) in ihren späteren Jahren noch Alben veröffentlicht, die euch Golden Oldies gehörig die Ohren durchpusten würden, wenn ihr sie denn mal hören würdet.

Die war wirklich nicht schlecht.

Bleibense Mensch. [/FONT][/I][/COLOR][/FONT]Ich bin kein strenger Purist. Daher schrieb ich ja, es ging nicht mehr viel. Ein bißchen was schon noch, aber streng genommen hab ich die Band eigentlich nur bis etwa Rock the Nations gehört bzw. höre dies immer noch. Mein Bruder hat sich durchaus mehrere 90er-Jahre-Werke zugelegt, aber keins davon hat mich gepackt.
Lasst uns doch nochmal den TZ-Metall Gedanken aufgreifen…evtl. Themen- oder Bandbezogen, wie auch immer. Wäre doch die beste Möglichkeit solche Dinge aufzuklären, oder ?

Führ den Gedanken mal weiter aus. Meinst du einer stellt bspw. mal ’ne Kompi zu den frühen Saxon zusammen und ein anderer zu den späten?
--
Das Alben- und Singles-Archiv[/URL] des Rolling Stone Forums[/COLOR] Skraggy's Gamer TagsSo oder ähnlich, muss ja nicht nur um Saxon gehen…jeder hat halt andere Vorlieben. Vielleicht sollte sich da jeder seine eigenen Gedanken machen.
Ich muss jedenfalls jetzt erstmal mit den Doggies nach Draussen, melde mich später nochmal. Bin jedenfalls gespannt, wie Ihr so darüber denkt.
