Leftovers week continues with a special version of the Heavy Metal Jukebox. Some people just love singles and that's the main reason people would buy a 45 record is so they could hear that song. Yet if you flip it over you get a b-side and there is music there as well. So I went through my singles and found three b-side songs you would know. So here are your choices.
Black Sabbath-The Wizard
Judas Priest-Metal Gods
Van Halen-Ice cream man
In case you are wondering the Wizard is the b-side to Paranoid, Metal Gods the b-side to Breaking the law and Ice cream man was the b-side to Hot for teacher.
***So which b-side do you choose?
Hee Hee...I choose Ice Cream Man!

I've always loved "Ice Cream Man," since before I was old enough to understand the blatant sexual innuendo.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely "The Wizard." That song saves me from having bad songs in my head all the time. Once somethign rotten creeps in, I just think of "The Wizard" and I'm free!
ReplyDeleteMan difficult one between 'The Wizard' and 'Metal Gods' for me... I think though the one that had the greatest impact on me when I first heard it was 'Metal Gods'. It was an era where I couldn't understand why the rest of the world was listening to this excellent music.
ReplyDeleteI like them all, but Metal Gods less than the others. With the blah chorus, for me it was Priest starting to sound a bit sluggish.
ReplyDeleteThe Wizard gets my vote. One of the best hard rock/metal/blues rockers out there.

It's a crap shoot, but I'll go with Ice Cream Man.
ReplyDeleteThe Wizard!!!
ReplyDeleteIce Cream Man is a cool song, but it just doesn't rock as hard as the Wizard!!!
It's a close one and my answer could be different next week. Yet for this week it's going to be Metal Gods. I had a freind in college who played the Wizard too many times and I need to be in the mood for hearing Ice cream man.
ReplyDeleteI would have to go with "The Wizard"
ReplyDelete"The Wizard."
ReplyDeleteIce Cream Man was a B Side??? WOW! This is a GREAT tune and my pick!
ReplyDeleteI have to go with Ice Cream Man. Its one of my favorite VH songs. I like the other two as well, but Ice Cream Man, is the one this time.
ReplyDeleteI gotta go with Priest "Metal Gods" on this one!
ReplyDeleteMeeeeetalllll Goooooods!!!!
ReplyDeleteAs cool of a song as Ice Cream Man is, I'm going with The Wizard.
ReplyDeleteWeird how Ice Cream Man is the b-side to a song on 1984, when it's on Diver Down.
Mike-Actually Ice Cream Man is on the debut.
ReplyDeleteThat's tough but I would have to go with Metal God's. It really highlights Halfords vocal range.
ReplyDeleteUp for Judas Priest!!!
