80's British Heavy Metal #1
As it's become apparent, my favorite genre is metal, by far, and as a cohort of that, British 80's.

I particularly like Motorhead, Iron Maiden (still kicking), and Judas Priest (Rob Halford still does tons of features), and I'm currently checking out some new (old) bands. What are some of SL's favorite bands/songs/albums/live sessions?

Edit: Tigers of Pan Tang also kick some serious ass
It's often the outcasts, the iconoclasts ... those who have the least to lose because they
don't have much in the first place, who feel the new currents and ride them the farthest.

You like Black Sabbath/Ozzy, right?

Also, RIP Lemmy. Sad

I'm ok with Sabbath, not too keen on everyone calling them "the best metal band of all time", though.

And yeah, losing Lemmy was really hard for my stepdad and I. I donated to the campaign to get a statue of him in front of The Rainbow, though, so that felt pretty good.

They aren't the best, but they are one of them.

My Stepdad loves pretty much all of the ones mentioned in this thread. I'm not so well educated with 80s stuff or music in general but maybe I should borrow a few CDs?

You should just use Pandora or Amazon Prime.

Not exactly British, but what about Dio?

Illegal, immoral, and unethical.

Spoiler:
Do it anyways.
