🎼14 April 1980. The day Heavy⚡️Metal came from England 🤟
This rock genre already existed for 10 years, but these 2 bands had their say in... spreading the disease!😳😈
🎸Iron Maiden release their eponymous debut album with an incredible #4 in UK Charts on the first week! It's their only album to feature #DennisStratton as #guitarist, soon replaced by #AdrianSmith.
🎸Judas Priest, who were a little older, release their sixth studio album British Steel (some say their absolute masterpiece!), acquiring the nickname of "Metal Gods" after one of the songs, a "status" then reversed on their #vocalist phenomenon and frontman #RobHalford (still today referred within the scene as Metal God).
Needless to say I love every single track from these 2 albums 😉 so in the Chat Room👇 I will just post the 2 opening tracks: if you have any favorite song from Iron Maiden and British Steel... help yourself and post them 😃

📀 Piece Of Mind
#HeavyMetal
40 years ago Iron Maiden from London, #UK released their 4th album (my very first Maiden and possibly my first Heavy Metal ❤️🔥, in the picture☝️my original MC in #VeniceRocksRoom).
Piece Of Mind was the first #IronMaiden album to feature Nicko McBrain on drums and contains standards such as "Where Eagles Dare", "Flight of Icarus", "The Trooper".
Like its 1982 predecessor, Piece Of Mind was a critical and commercial success: after 👉 The Number Of The Beast Iron Maiden were accused to be satanic, the band was getting tired of that and decided to include a joke phrase before the song "Still Life" that could only be understood playing the record backwards, the purpose was of course to raise more controversies and have a laugh.
Still today my favorite!
