Episode 27 - Wherever You May Roam (ft. Nazareth, Marseille & Babylon A.D.)

<p>The boys get all geographical for the latest edition of the Enter Sadmen podcast as they put another three albums under the microscope in their bid to build the definitive hard rock and heavy metal Hall of Fame.</p> <p>The brief? The name of the band or the title of the album had to relate to a location - ideally real (either now or once upon a time) or one that would be reasonably accepted to be a well known fiction, such as Xanadu - though if you've suddenly started panicking, relax ... no Olivia Newton John of ELO is to be found herein).</p> <p>So the boys packed their bags, pocketed their spending money and headed off for a change of scene.</p> <p>Richard went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Lands (well, either that or a small Belgian town to the south west of Ghent) where he discovered not Jesus but Scottish rockers Nazareth and their 1975 album Hair Of The Dog.</p> <p>Mark took the M6 northwest to Liverpool and reacquainted himself with one of his favourite bands from the Second Wave of British Heavy Metal bands, Marseille, and their 1984 release Touch The Night.</p> <p>Steve took the brief to a new level by travelling back in time to the capital of the ancient Babylonian empire, where he and the natives were surprised to find long-haired San Francisco titans Babylon A.D. and their self-titled 1989 debut.</p> <p>As usual, they hadn't arrived back long before they got down to some serious squabbling.</p>
