Three Heavy Metal Compilation Albums from 1980 | New Wave of British Heavy Metal

[@musicisajourney]

Excellent opening line! You could go on like that in a Faulty Towers fashion. I actually watched this last night but didn't have time to comment. I love how those early eighties compilations get heavy metal... er, confused? Billy Squire, was it? Northern Vinyl Guy talked about a mid-eighties comp that included something from Rush's Power Windows - one of their least heavy albums! - as well as a few other contestable choices. But it was an exciting time and I think it's very cool that there are some excellent tracks included by bands who never got a record cut. That's like those compilation albums of sixties garage and psychedelic rock that have that one track that screams HEAVY METAL IS COMING! I've been on my toes waiting for another music-based video from you, Nick. Later, I will check out your The Cult live video. And I think Electric has moved up the list to become my next purchase. I found a used copy in great condition in the Amazon Market Place and another in an online flea market. One is a 2005 remaster, so I'm a bit worried about the loudness war effect. The other is a 1997 remaster, same year as the Rush remasters I bought. I wonder if the album is on the Dynamic Range index web site. Then I can see which copy has the better sound quality.

Thanks as always Peter I used to start my older photo channel videos with anagrams of during the meanwhilst until I ran out of them :-)

OK, I’m one of the 17. I want you to know that in 1980 while you were listing to music, I was working in the coal mines of Acapulco 25 hours a day so that I could put food on the table for my 12 hungry children and my 3 wives. Yes, I know, I’ll get my coat now.
