ALL CHRISTIAN METAL BANDS
More music madness next weekend
Motorhead are much missed. I recall travelling back from a poker tournament, and a grandfather, father and son were travelling back from a Motorhead gig on my train.
Do you think Slash & Robbie yearn for the bright lights of Stoke? Strangely, they probably do.
This got me looking at corners of my record collection that I haven't played in years. Including the original (Clovers) version of Love Potion No 9, and "Heat of the Moment" by Asia. Plus the madness of shockabilly/psychobilly that was King Kurt (and the Meteors)
When I first moved into North Essex from London, the local Vicar in a village in the middle of nowhere was John Pantry. Christian Music legend.
