Saracen - Heroes Saints and Fools (1981)

[1963chinablue]

Great band! Saw them at the Hatfield Poly back in 1981. They just made the hairs stand up on te back of your neck.. The were special thwn and still are now. Shame they never made it big as they really deserved it!

Can listen to this over and over again...great memories of when rock meant talent!

[OliverMagnum21]

@1963chinablue I wish I had seen them live back then. At least, I saw them last year at Keep It True festival and it was one of the best concerts of my life. Thanks for your comment, cheers!

To all you heroes, saints and fools

Fantastic song!

[Catsclaw00]

I actually saw this band before anyone else did, I was at their first ever rehersals in the 70's, they made the hair on my neck stand up even then! They are certainly one of the best live bands I've ever seen & I've seen thousands of them!

[kwakis]

Used to love smoking pot to this one! Great band! Nwobhm, + progressive rock, what could be better!

[sickdrjoe]

Even back in '81, Saracen was a different kettle of NWOBHM fish - this wasn't exactly Tank or Tysondog here - and they never topped this debut album.

[ParadoxapocalypSatan]

"I never thought my beer would show" ? mmmyeah I guess he's talkin bout his beer gut ?

[DayTripperEqualsHomo]

@ParadoxapocalypSatan never thought the fear would show :L

[machse69]

[pat30473]

epic album---remember listening 2this after 100 magic mushrooms....awesome

[kazater]

saracen has their thing down so badly it's hard to fathom :D loving every second!!

[Elvenking71]

Man.. I wish I heard this when it came out. But I definitely feel the nostagia in it...and listen to it in that context. This is sweet. :)

[ZZombyWooff]

aah. sounds like they listened to "fire of unknown origin" -album by Blue Oyster Cult.

[darkmuppetmaster]

Awesome man....just awesome..... I've got hte original LP and now the CD.... one of the best songs ever...

[mixtiplix]

I may be wrong, but I thin this is a remastered version... The original sounds a bit different. STill like it anyway!

[mixtiplix]

Maybe I'm wrong but it seems to me a re-mastered version. I'd bet the original sound a bit different. Stiil I like it!

[nvagook]

a lost classic awesome

[MrSomonestolemyname]

I´ve been listening to some NWOBHM lately.

And this is one of the best songs I´ve found.

Godlike.

[CultopaidoGR]

One of NWOBHM's best moments! Epic song!

[DanielleElizabethBab]

i love this song my uncle Danny Spencer was the drummer for the band :D

[EpicAlexMetal]

@DanielleElizabethBab Woooow he really plaied in a great great great band.

[williamwilbur]

That was awesome!

[emadhatter]

EPIC!

[EpicAlexMetal]

I think we can call this music progressive NWOBHM!!! Great song, great album from a fantastic band.

[bx7000]

One of my 10 favorite's song and bands, unfortunatly the 2 album was a bad, decadent (Change of Heart), but the 3rd is an inspiring, an excellent concept (Vox in Excelso).. This is a REAL progressive rock!!

[kyopsis]

I adore this band NWOBHM!

[MAGNUM2E]

TREMENDOUS SONG /ALBUM

[phoenixrust]

[hermorobert]

[beannocht]

[beannocht]

I had this album back in the day and I can't tell you how pleased I am to be able to hear it again.

I'll echo what hazy hamlet and 1 thiswas say

[hazyhamlet]

Brilliant epic stuff. Remember the first time I've heard it, got stunned. This is sure among my wanted LPs. Thanks!
