Djezez... That manowar photo was hard on the eye...

Kiss unplugged and unmasked, I've forgot about that. And Ace Frehley? I thought his solo career was considered a joke? I must update my Kiss knowledge, I see.

Never heard of Stryper, your favorite. (What a surprise..)

Will check out the rest later. Nice job.

Stryper is a Christian hard rock band.
Great song, but once I have listened to it, it gets stuck in my head forever.

Wilhelm said...

Plenty of goodies here, Torbjørn. Kudos. I'd forgotten all about Tigertailz. And I agree with Anders re the manowar video....why not Heart Of Steel rather than this one?

Wilhelm said...

..."There's olove like the love of your first love" :-) ABSOLUTELY brutal lyrics

Torbjørn said...

Now you're stuck with that song in your head forever.

Btw, Tigertailz is not much to remember. An regarding manowar song, defender used to be my favorite.

Plenty of crappy videos out there. The white lion video looked like some bloke made it for his girlfriend.
