who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten an opening slot for Ozzy or Priest or Maiden. Saw them in a theater in 85 live up to the name and Sharp

Okay, back in the day I loved "Thunder In the East". LOVED IT. Then, "Lightning Strikes" was released in '86, and I heard "Let It Go" on the radio. I was so disappointed. To me, it was another great Metal band going Pop. Then I bought "Lightning Strikes" on a gamble, and BROTHER DID IT EVER PAY OFF!!! These two albums are two of my favorite albums of any era, from any band. Fresh-sounding, progressive, melodic, ROCKING Heavy Metal!!
