Budgie??? NWOBHM????

[Ferg]

No. I don't think Motorhead are. NWOBHM broke in '78 I reckon. I should know....I was there!

[Ferg]

Saxon definately!

[Ferg]

I actually think Diamond Head or Vardis were my favourites.

I was never a big Maiden fan..saw them a few times with DiAnno though. And saw Samson with 'Bruce Bruce'....

Judas Priest are up there for me. Although early Def Leppard before they went big hairy was great.

Honourable mention to Whitesnake for awesome song titles - "Rough & Ready", "Slide It In", etc.

I'd suggest, though, that like Budgie Priest weren't really NWOBHM.....

bands of all time

Definately!
But this is specifically a NWOBHM thread and Priest were too early for that.
