Saxon - The Eagle Has Landed (live '83)

[driffter1976]

The equal of anything off 'Piece of Mind,' if not better.

[666imfernal]

son de los buenos y q chuchas  metal por sienpre ja ja jaaaaaa

[villajedi]

AWESOME!!! SAW THEM WITH FASTWAY AND IRON MAIDEN ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS EVER!!!

[TheMicstur]

@villajedi Damn that was probably one kick ass show dude

[michaels2boys]

@TheMicstur / I saw this tour when they opened for Maiden in Seattle. AWESOME!

[soozkatt]

@villajedi

Was it in Long Beach about summer of 1982? Wow I was there too and it was an amazing concert!!!

[edgroove7]

'ey up then, there's a great big bloody moth comin' down at the back to eat the drummer!

Oh sorry it's an eagle lol

GREAT TUNE !

[ZeMPzo]

If you listen to the intro of this song,there is no question where Rage Against the Machine's "Killing in the Name of" came from. Not two bands that are probably mentioned in the same sentence very often.

[jor660]

Fab, travelled far and wide to see Saxon, great band, fab songs and magic live, can even remember Biff getting " Rear" of the year, driving all us women mad...... long live saxon :)

[bambamsatx]

I saw them on this tour in 1983. They were the middle act between openers Fastway and headlinders Iron Maiden (Maiden's Peace of Mind Tour!)

[TheMicstur]

@bambamsatx Fastway kicks ass to wish the singer Dave King would get his shit together and leave that horrible band Floggin Molly he is in now and get back with Fastway

[michaels2boys]

@bambamsatx / I this tour as well in Seattle.

[robertanthony975]

Saxon was second on the Fastway/Saxon/Iron Maiden show in Seattle for this tour. Epic show!!! One of my favorite bands from this era!

[robertanthony975]

"bong song"!!!

[ironmisfit666]

Yes folk's this was filmed at the Rock city venue.......a great gig by a great band!!!!!

[balzakkerd]

the eagle doesn't land with many people anymore these days.. good music is fading

[Maguita70s]

My Favorite Saxon Song!! Soo Darrrrn Sexyyy!!!

[LatexCat45]

Oh what a concert. I've seen them in 1981 for the first time and two years ago for the last time and I'll see them again.... always been great... Biff's voice got stronger through the years and the music is still powerful like in the early years....tx for posting!

[clbaumer]

Omg. I never thought Ide see this again! Damnit YouTube is fuckin great. The 80s was so incredible for metal. Hot chicks, lsd, and Saxon. What a night this was!

[darthmoo7]

[moloko76]

@darthmoo7 ROYAL CONCERT HALL I think it used to be called

[darthmoo7]

@moloko76 oh right ive never heard of that place before but i looked it up and i think its still there and still called the same thing. thanks for helping me out :)

[srv508]

@darthmoo7 it will be the old rock city venue

[HALLATTclips]

@darthmoo7 It was at The Nottingham Royal Concert Hall.This was part of a mini tour that Saxon did to promote the album Power and the Glory.The other venue was St Davids Hall in Cardiff.They were both brand new venues at the time and Saxon were the first Metal band to play there.The venue seats 2500.....which was quite big at the time.I was actually at the concert three rows from the front.Feel old now!!

[darthmoo7]

@HALLATTclips oh cool thanks for the information. cant beat info from someone who was there! :D

[jimbo99ful]

[stokecityfc66]

I still think this was the best sounding line up, the bass is spot on....wonder why he got sacked?

[PUHCsi]

@amcenteggart

give me a couple of weeks when im not so busy i will upload the whole show in one clip .. Long Live Saxon

[madcapper6]

Saw them at the Paramount Theater in Seattle in '84 with Accept and Heavy Pettin and that eagle was kick ass. That was the loudest concert I ever went to and at one point Biff whistled into the mic and it was so loud it caused my eyes to vibrate in their sockets and for a second everything went out of focus.

I couldn't hear a thing for 3 days after that gig.

[PUHCsi]

@madcapper6

the whistling is from Motorcycle Man and it's still loud performed live today .. in fact Biff could throw the mic away and you would still hear him at the back

[bathoryfan95]

what`s this song talkin` about ?

[Warthogfan]

@bathoryfan95 The moon landing in '69. My fav Saxon song. Google the lyrics, might help you understand.

[bathoryfan95]

@Warthogfan my fav too :) i read the lyrics but i couldn`t understand but anyway thank you :)

[Gherson069]

Great song, but the cameramen must have been a bunch of drunken monkeys pointing the cameras in random directions.

[wierdwhatnot]

My fav Saxon tune, but its bull shit that whole time the guitar solos ripping away, they show everything but him playing.

[DickLodge68]

The anthem for all the second-in line metal bands. Great song...the one I really associate with Saxon. The studio version is amazing!
