I'm so glad my father raised me with THIS and not the modern shitty music. Saxon are the fucking best, I'm gonna see them live this October and it will be the highlight of my live.
I remember they came to "El teatrito" in Buenos Aires, I had them at 2 metters from me. They got in, Biff said "what a small venue", but they rocked their asses off. Totally loved that last show in here.
Saw them 1979 Dixieland show bar Colwyn bay North wales Graham Oliver Steve Dawson, guitar and bass guitar wheels of steel tour met the guys awsome band , shame the pier succumbed to t he sea and was never re built, still got the tour scarf 40 plus years later
That's original founding member, Paul Quinn (now bald). He was balding since the band started really, but wore a wig (yeah, I know...they're the real Spinal Tap btw), from about 1983-84 and to 1997/98. He then dropped it, since it looked strange on a man apporaching 50, and they weren't trying to qonquor the american music market anymore either, where looks matters.
One of my all-time favorite bands on vinyl, but when you watch them live you know why they never made it big in America...they are a complete dud live with no show, or treats, or production value, or anything. Great songs but zero vision or marketing gimmicks or charisma or anything. You compare them to Judas Priest or Iron Maiden and you can realize there’s a huge difference in presentation.
I think Saxon sound exceptionally good playing live. Better than Maiden. They don't invest much in that old "monster" show stuff as Maiden or Alice does, but... neither Zepp nor Beatles ever did big shows with weird costumes, stage machinery and all that shit. For Jimmy Page it's enough to wear a t-shirt and a simple pair of jeans. When people come for the music, there's no need to play that heavy metal theater. They are neither Maiden nor Manowar.
Disagree. I've seen 'em on... at least 10 occasions, and they're ALWAYS entertaining. A frontman like Biff isn't a dime a dozen. Bruce is. Priest had ups & downs. Not my favourite band, but ALWAYS entertaining live!
I don't think that it's the lights, maybe he had a trouble with the strings, tune or something like that,he really change the guitar, and because they haves two guitars we can't hear when he stops to play the blue guitar to change for the purple. Both of them are bealty guitars....
The crowd is DEAD! But than all my bands I love are... Gene Simmons said it best OUR MUSIC is gone... I mean FOO FIGHTERS are good ( don’t own any albums ) but I seriously can’t think of a album I’ve bought with 1990 or above on it. The 70’s & 80’s were the best EVER for metal. Dan McCafferty said it best in 2013 singing for NAZARETH... Were going to do a song( crowd cheers) off our new album ( crowd moans ) naw just kidding this is 78’s EXPECT NO MERCY ( crowd goes crazy :)
Great live version and something I noticed about a certain era of camera-persons that for some reason thought it's cool to NOT show the soloist and pan around the stage to everyone else. Hey if you do camera work for pro bands...don't do this for fucks sake! Couldn't believe this person did it twice in one song #Moron
@@grahamtaylor8912 i will...i lsitened some new songs like Battalion of steel and another and i like them..i don't like so much the other guitarist..scarrat ..really worse than great Oliver

que tal estuvo el show?
Biff is such a good live singer!
Is that a pfp of Fifth Angel I see?! They are awesome🤘
A few years ago I was driving a fast car through the Welsh mountains in the dark, flipped the stations, this came on, floored it.
Sound as good live as in the studio...just shows he can sing
I remember they came to "El teatrito" in Buenos Aires, I had them at 2 metters from me. They got in, Biff said "what a small venue", but they rocked their asses off. Totally loved that last show in here.
Saw Firehouse at Twin River Casino RI up close to stage. These guys are pros in every sense of the word. Real cool to deal with. They rocked!!!!
Great song,great band. Saxon FOREVER. 🤟🎸

Magia y potencia!!!! Que Maravilla!!!
Perfect snare sound. Tight and punchy but has depth to it. Sort of like alex van halen's snare sound. I love it!
Saxon is like the British version of Andi Deris era Helloween. I love it!!
Questo brano ha fatto un casino nella mia adolescenza....

Super KAPELA***zajebisty kawałek:)))***
Quinny looks a bit like Nigel Tufnel here! Great version of 747!!
Bless him, he must have hated the fact he was losing his hair. I did feel sorry for him mind.

It should be a criminal offence to play this at low volume!
Pmpl at your comment....very very true..play it load very load
anyone know what model of Lag guitar the lead guitarist (paul quinn?) is using?
I want this full concert, anyone knows where I can find it?
WOW!. Is that Dave Mustain with the purple guitar????
;-)
No,then it was new guitarist Doug Scarratt
That's original founding member, Paul Quinn (now bald). He was balding since the band started really, but wore a wig (yeah, I know...they're the real Spinal Tap btw), from about 1983-84 and to 1997/98. He then dropped it, since it looked strange on a man apporaching 50, and they weren't trying to qonquor the american music market anymore either, where looks matters.
oh sry man...I was in it,that you mean Doug...but no,you means Paul...Both are great guitarists ! very underratted

They're better than Judas Priest, just. But nowhere near Maiden, obviously.
They probably didn't have good management.

Great band, mad intro.
Who's the guitarist with the huge ginger hair?
Doug Scarrat
@@PUHCsi Thanks👍
Does guitarrist change of guitar? cause' at fist is blue, and he ends up with a purple guitar
+gear dave think it is just the play of light on it , purple can appear blue
I don't think that it's the lights, maybe he had a trouble with the strings, tune or something like that,he really change the guitar, and because they haves two guitars we can't hear when he stops to play the blue guitar to change for the purple. Both of them are bealty guitars....
+Dôrg Andrade correct!
is that actually quinns hair? whoa
Is that a wig Paul is sporting?
Is Quinn wearing a wig ????
Yes
Rufus D Tonebug that's kinda funny huh everyone knows he's bald and he comes out with a wig Haha
ya,,,
notice Quinny changes guitar mid song, string issues I suppose!
at 1:40 ;)

Да вот тоже это не понравилось 😠

andrea tozzi .... Yes the blue/purple guitar player... he looks so different in 80's, 90's and 00's 😃
Most of it is. Not the wig, tho.
I didn’t realise that Biff was American!
great to the boys back together after their drug bust and ensuing prison terms. jimmy, ralph, steven sticks and rudy

weak crowd...yeah..but..the daylight doesnt help! in the night is better of course! :P
Paul with that woman's wig HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
WTH!! What a weak crowds?! They always got the weak crowds
Love Saxon but still think that Steve Dawson was a better bass player
the earth is flat
o grupo não é bom. só salvou uma música que acabou conhecida de tanto jaba.mas esta unica é passável.
Rex Narua vc é doente. Vai se fuder.
whoi are bassist and the other guitarist??' biff can sing live as he sounds ins tudio..unbelivable..one of my favourite band all time.
