Oh I love Black Betty by Ram Jam so much ! Love your playlist RK,bit disappointed you haven't included anything by the Nolans though (joke ) And my apologies to any Nolan fans , I must admit , I did like a couple of their songs from my teenage years x
If I remember correctly, Lemmy duetted on the Nolans' single 'Don't Do That' in 1981, and Cozy Powell mashed out the rhythm on the drums in his own unique manner. I was 13.
Ha ha Im well jell What about this then - I saw Motorhead at Bingley Hall in Stafford in, I think 1980 something, not sure about the date . I spent the entire concert absolutely terrified as there was some very scary people there to be honest . Much preferred listening to " Im in the mood for dancing " when I was putting on my warpaint and supping my Lambrini ( bleurgh !) getting ready to go out haha : t'is true xx
Try Iron Maiden's 1982 classic album, "The Number Of The Beast", about 40 minutes long. Though there are fast and slow songs, they are in nearly the same tempo (full time, cut time) which makes it easy to maintain a constant pace or rhythm while running or cycling. Ministry's 1992 album "Psalm 69" has many of the same traits.
Heavy Metal and Industrial albums may not be easy listening music and won't appeal to non-fans, but for creating aggression and keeping your focus during endurance sports, there's nothing like them. They don't have to be played loud to have a positive effect.
In my teens I was into Goth/Rock/Metal and so I have Sisters of Mercy - Lucretia My Reflection as a favourite. The pace is not fast, but it goes on forever. Totally different style is another favourite, Eminem 'Lose Yourself'. And a nice balance between the 2 is Lose Yourself by Puff Daddy owing to the Led Zeppelin sample.
