What do you reccomend from them for someone that is starting to like them? And where would I buy them from?
Saxon Reccomendations
- Thread starter Anthrax0507
- Start date
If your local store doesn't have any,try www.amazon.com.Get 'Wheels of Steel' as a starter,then maybe 'Unleash the Beast' or 'Metalhead'.If you ain't got their latest 'Lionheart',its a must.This gives you a taste of the old and later Saxon.There are many others,but these are a few to start.
I recommend you:
a. buy what you can, then perhaps invite some mates round to fill in the gaps in the discography.
b. set up a nice big stack of Turbosound Floodlight or Nexo Alpha, fat enough to part your hair
c. then, crack open a few drinkies and sit back for a day or so and absorb the booze and the Saxon story.
d. Come back and tell us what a fucking cool weekend you have had.
I would (and do!!!) My neighbours love it (probably)

lionheart and unleash the beast -for how good they are now
heavy metal thunder and all their pre 1984 albums- for their old stuff
destiny-to see how crap they were

Everything that's been made between years 1980 and 1983 are worth listening.
I have a problem... Saxon - Rock Legends DVD.. Can't find any decent information concerning that DVD. I belive it's a live DVD... does it have some extras? Like promo videos or something... And which year was this live concert performed? And... yeah, is it good? Because it's very cheap in one Net store, only 6 + shipment ~8,5...

i have the rock legends dvd, highly recommended, you wont care its not in 5.1 when u see the show they put on , frozen rainbow is a hilite
for the newbie, pick up the saxon chronicles boxset
for the newbie, pick up the saxon chronicles boxset
Don't even have 5.1 
And not going to get one.. Anyway, what can I say? It's the best music DVD I've seen so far.. I only have 10 though. Live Vengeance '82 by Priest comes quite close though, but that Saxon concert was so full of atmosphere, you know... lovely. I also have this Chronicles 2DVD, but didn't like it really, only loved those promo videos, tv performances, interviews and three videos from that concert in Denmark. But that Wacken concert... I didn't like it really 
Hey, what's this Live in Nottingham DVD? I saw it in the same Net store, but can't find any information about it... or I can, but it seems to be the same as Rock Legends. So confusing! They also have "Saxon DVD". I wonder what that is, uh... They should provide better information about the products they sell in that store, grr!
EDIT: hah! It seems that they've accidently been selling 3 same DVDs with 3 different prices and names.
