The BEATLES (Official Thread)
I saw the movie at the theatre (Yelllow Submarine too) as a 12 year old kid at the time, and I bet I teared up a bit. And at the time, I probably thought this was the end of Rock and Roll as we knew it.- Catfish

Top 50 Classic Heavy Metal Albums
Doc Wu's right. List is subjective. I guess most on the list has at least some level of claim of being "early-metal". Def Leopard is the one I would say has the least cred in that category. To me they are much more in the Glam/AOR genre . Don't get me wrong... Love the band, but pigeon... -

Review Styx- Pieces of Eight (1978) **** 1/2
I really wouldn't really call Styx the equivalency of Yes. Especially when you consider the shit they made the last 1/2 of their career, while Yes remained consistent. Nor was Styx remotely Prog post 1978 either. And even taking the best 3 of each band. CTTE, Yes Album, Fragile versus...- Catfish
