I can Accept that. After all, who can forget Udo Dirkschneider (great name!), although some of us here probably wish we could forget him. Tongue

2 stars 1982: Kate Bush - The Dreaming

Hardly the first time that we disagree on the value of an album.  It took some time for me to grow into The Dreaming, but it is now one of my very favourite Kate Bush albums.
Duos for fave acts

Yes, I don't believe for a second the authors have actually listened to this and though what they heard was a classic - or even good. This is really more of a 1001 correct albums, to safely add to your record collection (for anyone lacking both personality and personal taste)

That was brutal LOL

As for Venom, yes, they were influential for early thrash and early black metal, but in the end they were copying Motorhead and added the satanic image(ry) and lyrics for shock value (back in the early 80s, it was shocking). 

Accept were influential for early speed & thrash as well, much more friendly on the ear. LOL

Also the EP Mercyful Fate debuted with in 1982 was also influential as was their full length album a year later.

Toto made a great album in 1982. Even Whitesnake did some great work that year. Geek
Uriah Heep's best years were already over by 1982 with driving force Ken Hensley no longer in the band.

You've just given me an idea.... When I finally reach the end of these 1001 Albums polls in the year 2004, maybe I should do another series of polls for all of the great non-prog albums that weren't included in the 1001 Albums book. Thumbs Up

Kate Bush of course

-that Iron Maiden album is probably their strongest, and it's got some undeniable classics on it (Hallowed Be Thy Name is my favorite track of theirs), but I can't listen to an album from start to finish featuring Bruce Dickinson on vocals.
