CD ReviewsEXCELLENT COLLECTION FROM NWOBHM VETERANS 03/27/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "This collection from Diamond Head who were part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) in the late 70's early 80's shows their incredible talent. Just listen to the outstanding guitar solo by lead guitarist Brian Tatler on "Am I Evil". Metallica's cover sounds bland compared to this version. There are so many great songs on this cd starting with "Am I Evil", "It's Electric", and "Helpless". This collection is a must for those who like Saxon, Tygers of Pan Tang, Iron Maiden, and Def Leppard. Highly recommended."
