| 1981-Saxon - Denim And leather |
 |
"Saxon was one of the early leaders of the
New Wave of British Heavy Metal, along with
Iron Maiden and Def Leppard. The band was
formed in Barnsley in 1977 by vocalist Biff
Byford, guitarists Graham Oliver and Paul
Quinn, bassist Steve Dawson, and drummer Pete
Gill. Originally calling themselves Son of a
Bitch, they soon decided to find a more
subtle name, settling on Saxon. Like many
young metal bands of the day, Saxon found it
difficult to land a record deal in post-punk
England, but eventually signed with
French-based Carrere Records. Though Saxon's
1979 self-titled debut album was marred by a
lightweight production job, the band built a
strong following touring Britain as support
group to Motörhead and Nazareth. " (Source:
