A new one-dollar ebook tells the story 30 years on of the making of the 1983 SAXON album "Power & The Glory". New Wave Of British Heavy Metal pillars SAXON were on the verge of parody after four records of rockscrabble, meat and potatoes biker rock. IRON MAIDEN had clearly outstripped them and indeed by '83, many previous NWOBHM hopefuls were dying a death. But then "Power & The Glory" screamed out of the Carrere Records release schedule and SAXON were all of a sudden as heavy as SAVAGE and as drunkenly exciting as GRIM REAPER. "Come hear the tale of how that headbanged and heavenly state of affairs happened, how electricity was mainlined into this then-tiring band, and how 'Power & The Glory' became the best SAXON album ever," says author Martin Popoff. Popoff crafting a flagship addition to his "Ye Olde Metal" series of 30 short ebooks, including a dozen never-before-seen live photos of SAXON from the era talks to four members of the band, namely bassist Steve Dawson, guitarist Paul Quinn, leader of the pack Biff Byford and, in the author's opinion, nuclear weapon on board this aircraft carrier of metal, new drummer Nigel Glockler. "Ye Olde Metal: Saxons Power & The Glory" is available as a short ebook in PDF, mobi and ePub formats from Zunior, and ePub format from iTunes.
