Fair Warning or RATT Invasion Of Your Privacy. When I saw Stephen Pearcy in Santa Rosa a month ago I was wearing a Ratt Invasion tee. When I met Peary he said to me "nice shirt." Very cool CATT. I love RATT!

If it's the one with the girl/album cover...I wore mine all the time in high school. (still have it) Doubt they would allow it these days.

I'm beginning to get the feeling you don't believe in separating hard rock from metal, lol.

 

They belong with each other, I agree.

I hesitated with Killers, but I think metal is a branch of hard rock .. And TK listed Blackout in his original post, so I figured . . .

 

If metal is excluded here, I'm gonna give this some more thought

I was going to mention this one, but I thought I would get stoned for it.

I've never understood the distinction, to be honest. Is there really a cognizable difference between Hell's Bells and Run to the HIlls? Between Unchained and You've Got Another Thing Coming?

Since I'm an artist, I had to mention this. The cover art for Fair Warning was borrowed from a painting called The Maze by the Canadian artist William Kurelek. The image was cropped and modified so the band wouldn't get sued.

I think that speed is the issue for me. Maiden had a punk feel to them early on, whereas AC/DC was more bluesy. That what separates metal from hard rock, for me anyway.

 

Also, lyrical themes.

 

From that era..

 

Metal - Accept, Maiden , Priest

 

Hard Rock- Van Halen, AC/DC, Ratt/Motley/ leopard

The funny thing is when I first heard Balls to the Wall, I thought it was a new AC/DC song, even that title is AC/DCish.
