Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and for your "Two's Up"' theory: definitely sounds feasible (of course the band is turning the idea of the game into a sexual metaphor per usual). Peace out. ✌🏼😉

Thanks, Marc. Funny thing is when I first did this video it kind of flopped and a few of my subscribers voiced their concern that I wasn't going to be doing more in depth videos anymore. I was just trying something different and Saxon has so many albums that it seemed like a practical and fun way to tackle 'em all. Jump one year later and the video has actually become one of my more popular videos, so maybe my approach wasn't wrong for people outside my subscriber pool. My old NWOBHM video series was similarly a slow burn and now it's popular, so in the future I might do more in that series: in which case I'll do a more in depth review of Saxon's early albums. Not that I make videos just for the clicks, but it takes time to edit them and make them as good as possible, so obviously I don't want to put in the work if no one is watching. Anyway, thanks again for watching and for commenting. It's always appreciated.

​@@EddyCannistraciAbsolutely, Eddy. No worries, and I fully understand. It's smart to try it this way anyhow. I mean, most people don't have a strong enough of an attention span, attention to detail, or genuine interest to be that into it. Shame. But I know this, as long as you're involved, it will always be entertaining, intelligent and humorous. Give me the choice of a lame, humorless host doing a longer, detailed show vs. someone like you doing a shorter, less informational one, you know which way I'm going! Because, look, I already know a ton about most of these great bands and artists, so tuning in for the entertainment value is, really, the most important factor for me. So, for me, you're one of the good hosts, Eddy. And I always look forward to your shows! Keep rockin'... Marc

Cheers!!! 🥃🥃🥃🥃😎😉

@@MetalHeart8787 Agree and just subscribed to your channel. Will check out your videos (curious to watch your review of the FOTW VHS)…!!

@@anundyingfire Real fans > Wikipedia. Thanks for dropping that knowledge. 👍🏼

Thank you as always, brother!

Thanks as always, Rich, and yeah: definitely throw Flick of the Switch in the mix if you haven't listened to that album in awhile: one of the band's rawest and most primal efforts!

Glad you enjoyed it, man, and likewise I have fond memories of being that age and cranking Fly on the Wall! You'd win a shoutout, but alas, that's not what was in my Amazon box. You came closer than some others though. 😉👍🏼

@@EddyCannistraci Haha! Well, I tried. You can't win if you don't play, right?

1 out of 2 ain't bad. 😉

Thanks, TJ. Appreciate it.

@@MichaelTaylor-rz4wm Thanks. Yeah, at some point I want to do a video about Sunflower and Surf’s Up…!!

Thanks, Michael. Appreciate it.

It's next level post-modernism to do a cut-away joke to Family Guy, but sorry, Mark: you guessed wrong.😜

No reason to apologize. I value other opinions. Thanks for commenting.

Thanks so much, Ralph: your praise means a lot to me (as you know). I'm also glad you found it funny, especially since I know you don't like these albums as much as me (although I recall you liking "Playing With Girls", which is a Rock N Roll Card essential 😉). Looking forward to watching your Flick of the Switch review....!!!

Thanks so much and despite growing to loving Fly's "hot mess" production, I would also love to hear a remix as well (just listen to how great the title track sounds in that live soundboard video). And re: the Amazon box: great guess but unfortunately I have not upgraded my old digital rips of those Tony Martin era Sabbath albums. Maybe sometime in the future...!! 🤔

@@EddyCannistraci I saw this tour at Nassau Coliseum in NY with Yngwie. It was incredible! I still wish I had my concert shirt.😔

@@buyaka2944 Wow! I wish I could’ve seen that tour. From the clips I’ve seen it was one of their strongest…!!

Right on, brother. Thanks for watching and for weighing in.

Thank you as always, brother. Proud to wave the banner!!

Yeah, after making the video, I was a little bummed I forgot to talk about "Chase the Ace": it's literally the only song from the era I didn't discuss! It's definitely one of Angus's strongest solos ever...!!!

Thank you, man! I shall wave that flag high!!

Ha! Love it. Thank you, brother. As a guitarist I think you'd appreciate the albums: great licks and solos throughout.

@@EddyCannistraci I'm literally watching the Fly on the Wall video that you linked --sounds killer

@@CVGuitar Proves I know things...!! 😉

Your comment is both visceral and lyrical and it totally captures the brilliance of Fly on the Wall...!!!

Hell yeah! It totally captures that time! Love your comment!

I dig it too.

Fair enough. Always glad to get different opinions. You should check out that live clip of "Fly on the Wall" I have a link to in the description. You'll hear, at least with FOTW, Brian's voice was still in great shape: it's the production on that album that makes it sound less impactful as his Flick vocals.

Right on and I agree (as you know 😉)! Thanks for watching and for commenting! 🤘🏼

@@EddyCannistraci Love your vids dude!

Right on! Same here! ⚡🤘🏼

@@EddyCannistraci Yeah! If you check out my last album you will notice that love very much... ;) Here´s the first single: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIjWoYWJaMqhgJo

Same here, brother, and right on! ⚡🤘🏼

Agree 1000%

@@eppuee5413 If you paid attention to my video, you would’ve heard the following: 1.) they actually had more than 7 weeks. 2.) Brian was writing just the verses and with help from Bon’s two songwriting partners (the Young Brothers) and the producer from HTH, Mutt Lange, who had also helped Bon with lyrics. 3.) Bon was writing in an AC/DC style and Brian, with the above-mentioned help, was intentionally copying that style. 4.) Bon had far less time than Brian to pen BIB lyrics: only 3 days after his first and only rehearsal session for the album and then he tragically died.

@@EddyCannistraci sorry that I Hurt your rules and one write to e-mail but I try to find out something I was whit my mates girl friend seven weeks and they said you did'nt come an other person sorry O

@@eppuee5413 No worries. I like when people comment and give their opinions (even when they differ from mine).

Thanks for watching and for the thoughtful comment. I actually don't hate Carnival of Souls as much as it sounded (not the Gene songs anyway). If they took the best from Psycho Circus and the best from Carnival, they've had a really good 90s KISS album (I forget if I said that or not in the video).

Wow your top 3 are also my top 3!! Cheers man!

@@dubuqueblues69 Great albums and great minds! 😉

I'm not talking about MTV grunge. Late 80s underground grunge in the vein of Green River and Mudhoney and even Bleach era Nirvana. Melvins were definitely part of that scene and helped define the sound.

@@EddyCannistraci They weren't part of any grunge. They don't even have songs about hating your parents

@@murray9807 Again: you're expressing a bias based on the mainstream grunge of the 90s (and bands like Alice In Chains and Soundgarden didn't just write songs about "'hating their parents."). I'm talking about the genre's musical evolution in the late 80s. Buzz himself cites the impact and influence they had on grunge. The man was a mentor to Kurt Cobain.

@@EddyCannistraci They're Sludge

Yeah, it's really funny that I don't think a guy who only had three days after their first rehearsal for the album -- and went on a tragic bender within those three days -- penned the lyrics for an entire album (a feat he never was able to do on their prior albums). Oh, and save for one odd Angus quote that's subject to different interpretations, there's no proof whatsoever that Bon wrote any lyrics on the album. Watch my other videos on the subject to learn more.

Wow. Sister doesn't even make your peak era: tough customer! 😅Seriously though, I love hearing all these opinions and I love when people are true to what they love, which clearly you are. Cheers.

@@EddyCannistraci Sister did not get me that much, but I agree some of the songs rocks, white cross, etc, but not my cup of tea

"The Great Good Place" (it's on the album Working With God).

Agree 100%. 😉👍🏼

Thanks so much. It's greatly appreciated. Fink actually came after me in the comments section and it led me to re-read his book and dive even deeper into the subject. And this resulted in three more videos. When you get the chance, you should give 'em a watch... kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5-ki4mKZaaEj5osi=qplVcGl90wMiPC-b

@@EddyCannistraci Thanks Eddy! Funny I just said to my boy “man can’t find anything good on tv”. Off I go! Ty again! Wish I had seen Bon live. My first knowledge of them was looking at the LP cover of Highway to Hell in an old department store. Thought it looked super cool. Put it behind my back and said “Mom can u buy me a record?” “Sure which one ?” She looked at the cover;) “Put it back.”😂. I eventually got a hold of an 8 Track;)

@@W.Frates Hope you enjoy the other videos. Still have that Highway To Hell 8 track? That'd be awesome to have.
