Additional information
Diamond Head: Brian Tatler (vocals, guitar); Sean Harris (vocals); Colin Kimberly (bass); Duncan Scott (drums). Recorded at Old Smithy Recording Studio, Worcester, England. Includes liner notes by Jon Sutherland. Diamond Head's first album--aka the 'White Album," LIGHTNING TO THE NATIONS, or simply "Diamond Head"--is somewhat like the Ark of the Covenant of heavy metal. By unlocking its New Wave of British Heavy Metal secrets, one will discover most all the connecting points between the genre's '70s originators and the ensuing '80s hordes--arguably even more so than via Iron Maiden. And, like Maiden's brilliantly roughshod eponymous debut of 1980, Diamond Head's masterpiece was anything but a marvel of recording technology, but rather a living, breathing, electrifying studio performance financed by the band itself on a shoestring budget. The seven tracks contained within truly were imbued with an astonishing, almost magical synthesis of variety, creativity, and maturity. Despite their inexperience, guitar prodigy Brian Tatler, singer Sean Harris, bassist Colin Kimberley, and drummer Duncan Scott miraculously managed to mesh the primal power of Sabbath with the epic grandeur of Led Zeppelin, countered by the punchy, no-fuss songwriting economy of Judas Priest. Not until Castle/Sanctuary's beautifully packaged 2001 reissue was LIGHTNING TO THE NATIONS truly restored to its original, untainted glory, and then enhanced with an additional eight songs culled from a number of singles and EPs recorded around the same period. Among these, "Shoot Out the Lights," "Streets of Gold," and "Play It Loud" deserve the highest praise, as all three are built on colossal riffs and hooks as good as on the songs that did make it onto LIGHTNING TO THE NATIONS.
Reviews
Record Collector (magazine) (p.97) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[O]wing much to the heavy blues-rock bands of the 70s, such as Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin -- the latter being most apparent in Sean Harris' soaring and somewhat sexually-charged vocals..."

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

No communication needed with seller, so don't know what to rate with regards to communication (please dont take lack of feedback on this matter as a negative). Thanks again.

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
