    Great response there James. Some awesome songs you picked out like Burn, fantastic. With Seventh Son and Headless Cross all the songs are so good it's hard to single out one song from them but yeah the title songs are certainly strong.

    Nice picks James, great response to Tom's thread! I love Ride the lightning, but there are a couple of tracks I love just a little more. 7th son is probably my least 80's Maiden album, but the title track is a good one. Arise is amazing, Dead embryonic cells is my favourite from that album though. Wolverine blues is great, I need to check out the whole album. I recently picked up Symbolic on CD, fantastic album but I haven't heard it in a while. Nile is a band I need to check out at some point. I've heard great things about that Immortal album, gotta give it a listen. Cheers man 😊🤘🏻

    Hi James!!!! cool list and honourable mentions too.... You can easily pick Accept's "Restless...." or "Balls..." both are masterpieces, also Deep Purple "Burn" or "Stormbringer" too. So cool to see Dokken's "Breaking...." that's an awesome and catchy tune. I think my favorite song from Maiden's SSoaSS is "infinte Dreams". Great Sabbath with T. Martin, btw are you going to get the boxset? cheers and be well

    I agree Escape on Ride the Lightning is excellent and the title track is my favourite too. I'd go for The Clairvoyant on Seventh Son but I like the title track too and agree that Infinite Dreams is excellent, my favourite Maiden album. Could also go with Caught Somewhere in Time. Can't argue with Arise, great album. Could also have Beneath the Remains. Probably go for Hollowman on Wolverine Blues, cracking album. I'd add Souls of Black by Testament, Slowly We Rot by Obituary and In Search of Sanity by Onslaught off the top of my head.

    A year or two ago, Seventh Son was one of my picks for Mike's thread. The one with the worst songs on the album, hahaha. My favorite would be Only The Good Die Young. I've never actually heard that Purple album, in fact I've never really heard any of their albums really. Quickly listened to the title track... James, I need that album! Haha. That track alone convinced me to pick it up next time I see it. Appreciate you jumping on the thread, though my wallet will disagree soon!

    • @mrboulder9714
      @mrboulder9714  3 месяца назад +1

    Accept Balls to the Wall what an exceptional album and title track one of the best opening riffs ever , that album is loaded with great songs Love Child is also one of my favorites, Wish Udo and Wolf stayed together, Dokken Breaking the Chains love the title track and though I own the album it is kind of lackluster like you put it but damn that title track is phenomenal, the follow up albums is where Dokken put it all together with Tooth and Nail , Under Lock and Key and Back for the Attack is where it’s at , RATT and Dokken my two favorite bands besides Blizzard of Ozz with the original members Randy Rhoads , Ozzy Osbourne, Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake rip they are number one in my book and always will be , also on that Dokken album it’s in the American issue I believe on side B Paris is Burning the live version is excellent starts off with with blistering George Lynch solo , cheers Mr Boulder and Of Concrete Gods killer stuff 🤘🏻

All are the best songs on the album of the same name

    I agree 100% on Balls to the Wall. I love the song, but with out it the album is a 5/10. I'm not the biggest Accept fan. Some of the lyrics are just sexual cringe to me. But Wolf's then wife wrote the lyrics I think. I'm not a fan of sex in lyrics, it just feels like a pop/rock music thing. I feel like this is metal and we can do better lol. Part of the thing I liked about metal more then rock was I hate the sex, drugs, and Rock and Roll attitude. So when a metal band writes lyrics like "screw the girl who's next to you.", it just lowers the bar.

    First album that comes t o mind is Slayer - Repentless. Great track on a mediocre album. I'll say South of Heaven. Great track on a 6/10 album. Judas Priest - Ram it Down, great track on a shit 2/10 album. I'm going to say Motorhead - Ace of Spades. Now this is a great record, and I'm sick of this song, but based on how many people cover it you'd think that it was the only song Motorhead ever wrote. Same could be said about Black Sabbath - Paranoid. Dio- Last in Line. Favorite Dio album, favorite Dio song. Dio- Killing the Dragon. I love this track and I think after Dream Evil this album is the closest thing he did to his classic era. Dio-Holy Diver. Dio-Sacred Heart. Lets face it, Dio always names his albums after the best song.
