Song of the Day
Today’s post was going to be dedicated to a friend of mine, Alex. Unfortunately I do not have a photo of him. So until then, the song will remain mystery, and you can goggle at this photo I found after scouring the web.
Try to imagine Alex as a combination of these three lads, especially the one on the right. This is a photo of a band called “Shadrack Chameleon” which has absolutely nothing to do with anything. So Alex requested today’s song of the day be ________ by ________ , and it will be revealed when I have his photo! Until then:
Genghis Khan by Iron Maiden

Usually they have instruments (and shirts) over beer. This is the only pic I could find that didn’t look like a school portrait . Anyway from left to right we have what looks like the guitarist Dave Murray, then its the stoic Bruce Dickinson, to Steve Harris, Adrian Smith, and the other guitar, Janick Gers.
Genghis Khan is an ode to the cruel ,Mongol leader…Genghis Khan. The song is heavy and fast, sticking to the distinct Maiden sound. Its instrumental, all around very short and sweet. For me, the song gets good around the middle.
Enjoy your Sabbath, and your Maiden! \,,/
