[Heeplist] Saxon & Heep US tour

[Knut Svendsen]

I saw them live with Motörhead in 2015. They are good live. Wheels of Steel (1980), Strong arm of the law and Denim and Leather are the most popular albums. They were part of the NWOBH and are thus closer to bands like Motörhead and Iron Maiden than bands like Purple and Heep. The biggest hits are Strong arm of the law, Dallas 1pm, And the bands played on andDenim and leather, at least in the UK I believe.

As far as I know, I've never heard one of their songs on a US radio station. So the last few days I've been on Amazon Music I listen to denim and leather and then the greatest hits.  So far it sounds like, just run of the mill's metal with no magic like Heep provides.
