Could be here for hours. Not gonna be :) so at this time I'll lay out the songs that quite possibly mean the most to me for different reasons:
Yngwie Malmsteen - Rising Force. I remember putting this record on for the first time thinking...my fave guitarist and one of my fave vocalists...please don't let this be sh!t...! It wasn't. Remains one of my top 5 songs of all time. Yngwie's solo is quintessential neoclassical metal.
Dio- Stand Up And Shout. Powerful, anthemic, inspirational and Vinnie Appice's fills proved to be a huge influence on my pathetic attempts to play drums.
Royal Hunt - absolutely spoilt for choice so I'm gonna cheat and nominate two. Day is Dawning for its solemn, touching beauty and Lies for the killer riff and killer John West scream.
UFO - Love To Love and We Belong To The Night
Scorpions - again spoil for choice. Might plump for Alien Nation.
Heart - Alone. Can still bring me to tears.
Gotta stop here. I'll be here all night!
