Saxon
Along with Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, Saxon was one of the key bands in the early-1980s scene known as the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Using the hard-rock template laid out by Deep Purple and Black Sabbath but playing a faster, louder, and more theatrically bombastic version of it, Saxon's sound would influence a plethora of metal bands--from Megadeth and Bathory to Metallica and the Darkness--for decades to come.

    One of the great Heavy Metal groups that was played nightly by the late Joe Anthony in San Antonio. May they both Rock On forever. My favorite songs by them are "Dallas 1 P.M.", "Broken Heroes", "Northern Lady" and let's not forget "Wheels Of Steel".
