Long Gone Day – Mad Season
I remember that summer. I haven’t lost my way so much as taken a different path.

I mean, it’s a speed metal song about Vikings ferchrissakes!
Longboats have been sighted the evidence of war has begun
Many Nordic fighting men their swords and shields all gleam in the sun
Call to arms defend yourselves get ready to stand and fight for your lives
Judgement day has come around so be prepared don’t run stand your groundApril 12, 2010 at 1:40 pm #41778Thin Lizzy – Emerald
I always wondered why James Hetfield and Steve Harris would rave about Thin Lizzy, having only ever heard “The Boys are Back in Town”. So I finally checked them out, and the studio album “Jailbreak” and the live album “Live and Dangerous” have become mainstays on my playlist ever since. They’re great, I love Phil Lynott’s vocals, the twin lead guitars, and their drummer is excellent (without ever becoming showy or overpowering).
Here’s a live version of the song Emerald, which is where I could first hear the influence on early Maiden. Sound quality ain’t great, but it gives a good feel.
