Band: The Heavy Metal Kids

No, not the Todd Rundgren song or the Kraftwork song...

Mix Bay City Rollers, AC/DC and Slade...

...and Holton's unfortunate love of opiates and you got yourself the Heavy Metal Kids. Holton stood in for Dave Vanian on a Damned tour and was asked to replace Bon Scott.. The Heavy Metal Kids got kicked off a Kiss tour when they got caught laughing when Gene Simmons' hair caught on fire. Let's show these fuckers some love.

My understanding is that Gary Holton was a commerial actor

...and a sitcom star as well. Auf Wiedersehen, Pet. Brits?

A few months ago a pal lent me a copy of Anvil Chorus (released stateside under the name "The Kids"). I liked it a lot. Some tunes were a bit dull, but some sounded like New York Dolls. "Blue-Eyed Boy" is a stomper with Holton leering and hollering like Bon Scott. Superb rock'n'roll. Not Crap.

Really? Wow, I guess I gotta get more of their stuff then.

We agree.

Based on a few Youtube videos: crap.

And we part ways. Sadly, I am not possessed of the discerning taste of BER, my not crap detector being easily set off by even the slightest invocation of any of a number of embarrassingly simple power pop memes.

I often wish it werent so, but it is.

NOT CRAP
