Blasts from the past...

The 80s thread reminded me that I like to take the occasional spin around YouTube, looking for classic 80s type metal vids from some of the lesser-known and remembered bands of the age. Here are a few of them for starters. Feel free to post your own!

hey Steele Breeze. I play in on a worship team at Calvary Chapel Pacific Coast in Westminster CA with him every once in a while. Kenny Goorabian the guitar player.

Nice!

He was definitely one of the most rippin' players on a pop song in those days! I like to put that tune on in the man cave and shred over it like he does toward the end of the tune...


BTW... tell him that anonymous doods out here in "flyover country" still listen to his stuff and enjoy it after three decades!

Dood... that's awesome. I was trying to find a Rail vid to post. But I was looking for "Fantasy". Now I see one on this site...

And very cool on the Villain video. A total representation of the time for sure!

some good vids in here, didn't know killer dwarfs , or saraya

side question, what amps they using in the saraya vid?

keep em coming, always nice to discover stuff

gosh dang...watching these videos from Saraya, Saxon, Stone Fury, etc. make me miss the days when MTV would show that stuff and next week the bands would be playing live in your city. I think I saw FastWay five or six times in one year, as they got lucky and opened up for Iron Maiden and several other touring bands at the time.

Is that Emma thompson on the bronz vid ?

Does anyone remember a video of a band that had a black Barracuda/Challenger driving through the desert? Late 80s I think. I remember liking the song but have no idea who the band was.

I grew-up and lived in MT and WY all of my 43 year life, so I rarely got to see these "B-scale" bands up there. But I still miss seeing thir videos on TV. I used to live for Headbanger's Ball back in the day!
