- what exotic fish I caught in the ocean of music -

RIP Eddie :cry:

That’s a gem for sure.

Years ago (about 30) the first Bulgarian computer viruses were created. I was a young IT man then.
Two of them (viruses) I will not forget: 666 (The Number of the Beast) and Dark Avenger (and here).
Inspired by Iron Maiden and Manowar songs.

Most of their names were borrowed from the heavy metal culture of that time. This was written by the alleged author of 666 and gives a deeper idea of the first computer viruses in Bulgaria.

Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast

Manowar - Dark Avenger

The alleged author still works near my home. :slight_smile:

At that time, our company had two VAX mainframes with their own water supply for cooling. And Novell, of course …

PS
Thanks SparkyDK for Kraftwerk’s song.
Kraftwerk - Trans Europa Express (original) - YouTube and The Robots are in my hall of fame. :+1:

I had most of the iron maiden records in my collection, also saw them on the monsters of rock tour along with other big bands.
My last concert was Ozzy Osbourne in Copenhagen way back in the late 80ties.

I listened to a classic with Frank Zappa yesterday, or rather 2 of them, bobby brown and dont eat the yellow snow.

I regret i never saw a Jean Michel Jarre concert back in the old days, but back then i was stupid and much locked into heavy rock only

We also covered quite a few iron maiden tracks when we jammed our asses off in the youth centers music room, i have lost many many liters of sweat behind the drums there.

An invigorating song by Cars. To start of the day…
At least for us it was like that.

The Cars-“Hello Again” (Live) (1985)

Okay seem like i am not exotic enough here, so allow me to drop a savage rose in your ears.

This Danish band as i recall have been putting out records before i was born in 1966, and they turned down a major US record deal as that would have meant they would have been sent to Vietnam to entertain the troops.
And Savage rose do not play wars.

Hi Sparky,

Really thanks a lot for your presence on this topic.

I apologize if I’m not responsive enough, but as you can see the topic is coming to an end due to lack of interest …

Thank you for the performances you have shown, especially from Denmark. I learned something new …

Mike Oldfield - Moonlight Shadow - 1983

Good thread. My favorite rock and pop is all 1960’s and 70’s. Lately, I’ve been listening to a lot of Mahavishnu Orchestra, Tower of Power, and The Soft Machine, speaking of that time period.

Tower of Power: Soul Vaccination Soul Vaccination

The Soft Machine: Slightly All The Time Slightly All The Time

Supertramp - Give A Little Bit (Live) 1983

Nothing wrong with supertramp, their double live Paris album are one of my all time favorite live albums.

One of the best for its time and so far…

Today marks ten years since Gary Moore left us at the age of 58 in his sleep.

With Phil Lynott, perhaps with his last record in 1985.
