"Strap It on" and Priest's "Love Bites"

[thraxhead]

Anyone notice when this song fades out that the middle lead break to Judas Priest's "Love Bites" is, albeit barely, audible? And, since it's a song about the old school, this would be a fitting tribute.

Wasn't too hot on the song at first, but now I'm a' digging it. Up the anthrax.

I thought I was the only one who thought that. Most of the posters here probably don't remember Love Bites (but they probably owned the Def Leppard song of the same name)

I've heard Love Bites before, but I don't remember what it sounds like. The only version that runs through my head is Nevermore's cover of the JP one.

When you feel safe, when you feel warm, that's when I rise, that's when I call......

In the dead of night....Love bites.....Love bites


I love that frickin' song, too bad Priest didn't play it when they were touring with Anthrax.

True, the version on the ...Live album kicks ass.

But they played "Heading Out to the Highway" (almost pissed my pants) and "Desert Plains," so that rocked. Why I am admitting to liking Point of Entry songs...I am not sure.

This has already been discussed a million times before, but "Love Bites" is one of those songs that took on a new meaning when Halford came out of the closet.

GODDAMN "Defenders of the Faith" is a GREAT GREAT GREAT metal album!!!

I never really liked Priest either but the solo in Strap it On is definitely has old school flavours.
