calvino Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Listening to the 2022 Record Store release of Judas Priest's - Hero, Hero. Sounds fantasic. Tunes from Rocka Rolla and Sad Wings --- I never owned Rocka Rolla -- can't say I even listen to it all the way through (probably have, but forgot) - anyway right out the box Judas Priest were writing killer tunes. Was at my mother in law's house this weekend for Mom's day --- she has this crazy antenna TV system, which has music video stations from the each decade ----happen to catch the Rock Rolla's video for the first time --- it took me a second to realize that was Judas Priest ---- Rob's hair threw me for loop --- then I heard him sing. And of course my kid just turned down the record.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Those are really the only two Judas Priest albums I ever listen to. That video is from The Old Grey Whistle Test show. I have always liked Winter/Deep Freeze/Winter Retreat. I guess they do no own the masters to those first two albums. I think I got Sad Wings of Destiny when I was a teenager in the early 1980s.

calvino Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Yeah definitely from The Old Grey Whistle -- need to search out the full video - did not realize that they were on it. Listening to "Run of the Mill" now --- great, great tune. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Just received a used copy of Somewhere in Time on vinyl --- this was the last tape I bought from Iron Maiden before I went off to Grateful Dead land - I did buy a knock off tape of Seventh Sign at a flea market when it was it released ---- anyway it's been a long while since I listened to it - I forgot that "Deja-Vu" is a kick ass tune.

Analogman Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Oddly enough - I have been re-watching all those great documentaries they have on Youtube. I think they must film everything when they go on tour. That was actually the last Iron Maiden album I bought also. I don't think l have heard it since 1987 or so.

Albert Tatlock Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Changing of the guard with Paranoid played. Made me laugh anyway. https://www.tiktok.com/@about.london/video/7532839159791160598 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The icing on the cake for the Changing of the Guard would have been for the colour guard to do a bit of headbanging in bearskins for a few seconds, but I suppose they need to keep some rules of protocol.

calvino Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 O crap - sorry I forgot that. Where you rooting for Spain - just curious. I still get all mixed up when it comes to the UK -- it bugs my English friends in my village to no end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No - womens football is not such a big thing for me to be too fixated, plus the English women always seemed to be coming from behind in the knockout games so it was nice to see them come through each time. It is a strange thing. For rugby I would be supporting 'anyone but the English' in the majority of situations (definitely in the 6 Nations), though if they get to the later rounds of the World Cup then it would depend specifically on who they were playing and how they were playing (they have had a boring style for some decades). I might also switch allegiance during a game if they went far behind - the British support for the underdog kicking in then. For football (though I don't follow it like I do rugby) I would tend to support England only because in my lifetime (until the last 10 years) Wales have never got their act together so England would be the only default for European and World cups. Sometimes if the team is full of overpaid twats and they are playing a 'minnow' I would turn against them, but as I live in England it is kind of nice when there is a feel good factor if they are progressing in the latter stages of an event. Scotland on the other hand I always want to see loose in football because of Joe Jordan's handball in the 70s in a World Cup qualifier. So, in summary, complicated - like our entwined history. This is great though :- 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
