NWOBHM part 1: AIIZ/Alverna Gunn/Bitches Sin/Black Axe/Burn

Not only did the BBC record and broadcast Punk and Post Punk bands, they also unleashed many New Wave of British Heavy Metal bands onto the public.  It seems that many NWOBHM bands were influenced by Motorhead's Ace Of Spades album. So, if you like that album I think you will like some of these bands. Sound quality is very good all around.
