Missed Dimeola when he did the Elegant Gypsy tour, was really pissed 

Saw Nugent in the 70's live a few times, awesome show, Derek St.Holmes is a beast on rhythm. My issue with Hendrix is similar to Page, really sloppy live and another thing with Hendrix live was tune for fucking guitar man seriously. Could be the drugs but that is even worse, IMHO when I pay good money to see a show you are on my dime, be professional or get the fuck off the stage, it is not much to ask. As for Hendrix roadies one of them was Meatloaf I hope he wasn't the guitar tech shite. Meatloaf also did vocals on some early Nugent material.   

Metallica - "72 Seasons"
Jag Panzer - "The Hallowed"
Polution - "Overheated"
Overdrivers - "She's on Her Period"
The Wild! - "GxDxWxB"

where we stand on most subjects.It’s more a case of, we need the fresh blood draw up Conversations so we can rehash the same old style opinions. The old goat, you’re good self, and I all more or less know where we stand on most subjects.

You guys consider Mountain too?I really liked their early work.

Gentle Giant - The Power And The Glory
Al Di Meola - Elegant Gypsy

Pitch Black Forecast - As The World Burns

I no longer have one.
Used to Noise, Roadrunner, Nuclear Blast, Century Media and Earache back in the early 2000s.  Some of those were defunct at that stage (Noise) or turned to shit (Roadrunner) but back catalogue was generally awesome.
But these days the labels are all totally erratic so I don't bother.

Budgie from Wales - way too good to ever be forgotten.
Songs like :
Nude disintegrating parachutist woman
Hot as a docker's armpit
In the grip of a tyrefitter's hand
Crash course in brain surgery
Some might know their Breadfan covered by others.
 
 

Great act. I believe he worked for Joe Meek, as did also Richie Blackmore. I don't know if Richie ever sessioned for Arhur Brown, but he was definitely in with Screaming Lord Such. Joe Meek was a bit of a character. His attitude was somewhere in the area of "anything goes". There can be no reasonable doubt that he made a lasting impression on Richie Blackmore.
Anyway --
Tony Iommi once said that he never cared much for Hendrix and the "psych" part of the fuzz guitar tree of evolution. He was into Hank Marvin, except he liked distortion. In my opinion, you can "kind of " hear that there is some DNA from the Shadows in Black Sabbath's guitar sound. Tony's riffing seem to follow the Hank Marvin logic in choice of meandering notes on the scale. 
I mean ... if Black Sabbath had gone for a more twangy surf guitar sound, it would pretty much be Shadows, right? A lot more small diddely-doo meanderings on the fretboard ... but if you're able to imagine a surf guitar doing the "Iron Man" riff, you whould be able to turn that on its head and imagine Kip Tyler working with Black Sabbath style guitar sound:
 
Let me be a little clearer on Hank Marvin vs. Tony Iommi. Compare these two songs:
Work a little with me. Try to "filter" away the fuzz.

Bolt Thrower - Realm of Chaos (1989)
 

New here to the forums nice to meet ya'll

Conversations are two way streets. Start one or add to another and this place can be as bustling as any other.
The reason it's slow now is because like any family we've been together long enough to hate each other and only talk when spoken to. None of us know how to start a conversation by ourselves any more. We rely on newbies for us all to get along nicely. Not all new topics work, some flop, but even doom metal has it's place here, well it did have 12 months ago.
And welcome Vitharr
 

MXR Dime Distortion, Joyo Ultimate drive
this pedals have a not big price, but sounds very good

I've been looking for interesting metalhead forums on the Internet for a long time, but most of them are abandoned. What about this? by the way, I'm from Russia (Krasnodar), it would be interesting to talk to those from another country 🙂

In the early 70's there were not many people into metal even in big cities, we would congregate in record stores and at gigs , you would know practically everyone by name because it was the same people every time. When I saw Mercyful Fate -Melissa there was less than a 100 people in a bar in Toronto,  we did not even have cellphones or PCs so everything was by word of mouth but it was a tight knit community and not as divisive as it is now. Imagine being a musician and trying to find people to jam with, all my fellow musicians were about 10-25km from each other 

Motorhead - "Kiss of Death"

The Jester Race- In Flames 

Some more:
  New Human (Reissue) by Death   This has been in my wishlist for ages but not sure if I actually listened to this mix before. The bass is a lot more prominent and better than the original CD...which I assume I still have in the garage. Fun fact, Human was the first CD I ever bought, back in 1992 with some of the money I was supposed to spend on textbooks for Uni.       New Dusk | Subside by Inverloch   I've had Distance Collapsed for years and never realised there was an earlier release. Still not been able to stump up $18 for the old diSEMBOWELMENT album, so this is better value at $6.

Overkill - Taking Over (1987)
 

One last one for Bandcamp Friday. 
  New Tales Between Reality and Madness by Void Of Sleep   I think I have some nice variety in the collection today, rounded out by this Italian purveyors of a cosmic amalgam of stoned out, progressive sludge rock.  

Sadus - Swallowed in Black (1990)
 

Crypticus - Dedicated to the Impure, Denver CO 2005
 
Crypticus - The Barrens, 2013
