Reminds me of this for some reason... Proof that adapting to a new system may take some time. -
I came here expecting the Misfits.

I've been watching a lot of these recently. Really puts things in a different perspective when people argue whether this or that guy from this or that rock band is the best drummer.

Wanda Jackson - Hot Dog! That Made Him Mad.

I'm usually not a fan of roasted maple but this is just too darn gorgeous. Congrats!

Accept - Dogs on Leads

Black Sabbath - Disturbing the Priest (from an underrated album, IMHO).
-
Judas Priest - Love Bites (this must be like Double Jeopardy, right?)

English not being my native language, LOTS of them, although I got a whole lot better after living here for a while. Things would get a little crazy when we would cover songs and I had to figure out the words - before the days of internet, and without anyone who natively spoke English to help, if they weren't printed on the sleeve, I was left to figure out what I could and extraoplate the rest. Which was embarassing, but, I had to sing something... I remember reading a John Lennon biography in 1990 and the author was saying that in the early days, when Lennon could not understand the lyrics of a song they were covering, he would just make up his own (sometimes completely absurd). That was then end of my complex. The things I sang (and mumbled) on stage from that point on, man... lol Oddly enough, maybe because Diary of a Madman was the very first album I ever bought and it had the lyrics printed on the sleeve, I developed a knack for understanding Ozzy's lyrics. I was fluent in Ozzy before I was fluent in English.

Huge fan. The irony is that I am not typically a fan of "prog" music (there are exceptions) but there's something about their music that just gets me on an emotional level. I have never paid much attention to how clever their music is, although I guess it is - and they are terrific musicians. But that's the last thing I would think about when I am listening to them. But if I sit here and think about it, yeah, these are some rather sophisticated tunes.

And speaking ofg Lenny going digital... Lenny Kravitz - Fly Away

Back on topic - The Sisters of Mercy, Walk Away.

I actually had the link ready to post but I figured it'd be more interesting to hear what you guys would come up with. Hadn't heard this one in a few years. He was an inspiration back when I started recording and I was really into retro, analaog stuff. And then he transitionned to digital right when I did...

Chris Cornell - Follow My Way

They are indeed! I go through phases every now and then when I like to rewatch all those Maiden shows and docs, these included. They're among my favorite musical documentaries. Fascinating to see how Harris kept those detailed diaries, too. Back when I got into heavy metal, in the little twon where I lived, Behind the Iron Curtain and Video Pieces were pretty much the only metal music VHS you could rent. Then Live After Death came out. I guess that made the visual aspect of the band very important for us, even though I never got to see them.

Marillion - Cinderella Search
-
Cinderella - Nobody's Fool. I always though it was a bit sad that they were put into that hair band category - they were essentially a terrific bluesy, rock and roll band. Lots of talent.

And I'm pretty sure I liked that post!
