I wanted to recapture part of my youth and I was absolutely overwhelmed by this re-issue. The production on the first release of this album was rubbish but the songs came through extremely well. This is how it should have sounded first time around. Unbelievable sound! Sheer genius, oh man it's good. It is an essential cd suitable for ALL metal fans, of it's time yes, but it outshines all the other releases of the era, with more exiting riffs than The Scorpions and suchlike put together, and the recordings historical significance should not be ignored. this album should be in every rock fans collection. The Friday Rock Show session have just got to be heard!
I don't know about the rest of the group but Kevin (Jimmy) Riddles is definitely English. I used to work with him at the Music House in Lewisham probably about 30 years ago, and I'm sure he'd be insulted to be called American. Brilliant CD brings back loads of memories. Keith(Boz)Boswell
