Wheels voted for as Saxons difintive album.
I may be living in the past, but I don't think you could argue with the choice!

Others included:
AC/DC - Back in Black
Motorhead - Ace of Spades
Judas Priest - British Steel
Metallica - Justice for All
Rainbow - Rising

 

[Redman]

Wheels, Back in Black, Ace of Spades, British Steel... all from 1980(?)

 

[Paxoman]

Wheels, Back in Black, Ace of Spades, British Steel... all from 1980(?)

That's exactly what I was thinking! Those albums are 25+ years old!

 

[Redman]

Yeah, those all I mentioned are from the same year, 1980. Must have been good year, hah. They're all great albums. Not necessarely my favourites of those bands, but classics anyway.

 

[Mad Dan McCafferty]

I'd have to argue with the Metallica choice, Ride The Lightning I'd go for ! and for AC/DC - Highway To Hell

I'd have to argue with the Metallica choice, Ride The Lightning I'd go for !

Definately agree with you there mate!

As for 'DC yeah, either Powerage or Highway to Hell for me..

 

[WILKS]

I think Master Of Puppets is Metallica's best.Does anyone know what the full list was?

 

[Redman]

Like I said, those albums are not really my favourites from those bands, but I think that Back in Black was the best choise from AC/DC. I prefer Highway to Hell myself, but Back in Black is excellent as well and it has more hit songs, you know... British Steel is not my favourite album of Judas Priest either, but it has only good songs so its pretty whole album.

Don't think And Justice for All is really a classic album at all... Not like these other albums. Might have sold more copies than most of those other albums, but still don't think its a classic. Its not even that old

I think Black Album would be the classic Metallica album. Many people hate it, but I think it has great songs. They're just hit songs so you get bored to them faster, but they're great.

 

[valanx]

Id Say 'British Steel' was the best of the lot though...

*Albums from 1980 i mean!

( in fact I hate such polls )

besides this..

I agree here! What was the second option? I myself voted Unleash the Beast

And I still like them, alot more than whats released by younger bands nowadays.. I listened to that Total Rock programm and in my opinion its not my taste what I hear there.. A few I liked..
