Good morning fellow music lovers!
It's #MusicWomenWednesday (by @loewe) and today I want to invite you to have a look to the past.

Metallica release their 4th album, “And Justice For All”
Pretty much their last true hard thrash-metal album. Perhaps their best album to date. ??
I was just starting college and Metallica was getting popular, approaching mainstream status with the release of this album.
My older brother had all their records, starting with 1983’s “Kill ‘Em All”, so I was long familiar with Metallica. I loved most of their previous album, “Master of Puppets”, so was eager to hear this one.
What I recall noticing was an improved sound quality. And of course some great guitar work.
For today's #RegionalRiffs I want to promote the #SpeedMetal band Spitfire. They are not from Sachsen where I live now but from the region were I was born (Baden-Württemberg). When I saw them live in Karlsruhe I was instantly delighted. Six years later, to have a musical piece of home, I bought the following album on vinyl (and the latest one on CD which is also a good one).

In 1974 #Queen released 2 albums: "Queen II" and "Sheer Heart Attack". Both are among my favourites.
On #SheerHeartAttack you will find a lot of guitar heavy tunes and trademark harmonies. Also one of the first #SpeedMetal songs ever recorded (Stone Cold Crazy).
My favourites from the album are Brighton Rock and...
