Saxon (Official Thread)

[METALPRIEST]

I have both Wheels of Steel and Power and The Glory on vinyl. Suzie Hold On is on Wheels of Steel only. If you have a version of Power and The Glory with Suzie you might have some rarity?

Turns out it's the '83 version/ remake of the song that was only on the U.S. and Canadian versions of the album.

Here it is here, but this clip doesn't show The Power And The Glory cover...but Wheels Of Steel.

Anyway, this is what is on my old copy. Great updated version for that time. It was in place of Midas Touch

I've searched some more and yeah, you're correct.
Think the Weels of Steel version of Suzie is better.

^^I saw a mint copy of Hair of the Dog last weekend Tony, for $10.

I also saw a very nice assortment of Saxon vinyl, first time so far since I've been frequenting 2nd hand shops. I might get either Crusader or Wheels of Steel...haven't made up my mind yet. If I saw Unleash the Beast I would pay $40+ for it without hesitation, but I doubt I'll ever see that recording here.

LG, Hair Of The Dog, bring it over!!

Unleash The Beast, you want vinyl or cd? CD I can get for you for about 15 Euro's plus shipping costs. Can't find the vinyl version yet.

Unleash The Beast was released on vinyl limited to 333 copies. It was few years ago, so now only hope someone sells it on eBay.

I did not know that about the vinyl Unleash version.

^^Yeah I have the CD already Tony, but thanks for the thought.

And Nolo is right the only hope is ebay now and I think it would be very expensive to get a copy and you never know if the quality is going to be good so it's a risk.

I just picked up a bunch of 80's Saxon on vinyl. Haven't gotten around to REALLY looking it over ( cleaning em up, playin' em etc. ) but they appear to be in ex shape. I will probably be able to replace a couple of sub-par platters.

I'm really happy to have picked up another copy of Power and the Glory
My original copy has a bit of a battered cover, the vinyl is fine though.

It would be nice to own that...maybe we can have a bidding war, Nolob

Just kidding, good luck obtaining a copy my friend.

That album is on my wish list to buy on CD, not seen a vinyl version around.
