Lari.Lahtela@edu.stadia.fi (Lari) received May 27, 2004 Great site, Michael! I came across donignacio.com when I was searching for Saxon reviews - there's about a billion heavy metal review sites, but I just couldn't find any decent quality Saxon reviews. Anyway, I have just read all the Saxon reviews and the writing is just, well, butt-whomping! Good stuff, keep up the good work. Those reviews are sure to prove helpful - I'm relatively new to Saxon and own three of their CDs (mostly their later material), so getting well thought out (???) opinions on their old stuff was good.... okay, want me to be honest? Screw well thought out, I just found the reviews funny! And I'm from Finland, by the way. So you have an international following! I'll be sure to come back and check other reviews when I have more time. Make love, not peace! Don Ignacio responds: Thanks, Lari! gmonssen@gmail.com (georg) received April 22, 2005 I am an American whose entire family (except my parents and brother) lives in Germany. When I was 12 years old (about 20 years ago) my father took us to Deustchland to visit our brethren. I bought a Saxon album (strong arm of the law) based solely on the cover art. I loved it! Saxon was never known in the USA but I was still able to get my hands on a copy of Denim and Leather which I also loved. Although they are probably the cheeseiest band in the world, I still thought they rocked when I was 12 years old, and would stilkl listen to them for a goof today if i could find their CD's anywhere. if you know where I could get a copy of Strong Arm, please drop me a line, I lostbroke all my lp's years ago. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Georg Adam |
