anyone have a top 5 list of rock/metal tunes from 82 to 91

Smooth up inya
holy wars
rock soldiers
ashes to ashes (extended solo)
mother

i am tired so have not thought it through too well.

A Million To One - Kiss
Too Young To Fall In Love- Crue
That Time of Year - Cusano's Invasion
Down In It - Nine Inch Nails
The Price - Twisted Sister

Like your first three .

Seen as kiss neglected a million to one and a few other tunes like exciter I thought vv should have re-recorded a million to one in vvi and had a huge hit with it.

that would've rocked except gene and paul would've sued his ass off.

Holy Wars - Megadeth
Number of the Beast - Maiden
Shyboy - Dave Roth version
Far Beyond the Sun - Yngwie
Still of the Night - Whitesnake


Just off the top of my head.

god ones. I guess I would add I still love you, beat the bullet, Into the Fire, Kiss of Death, Operation Mindecrime, Quenn of the Reich, For whom the bells tolls, Four horesman, Prince of Darkness (Alice) and who the hell knows what else.

Damn, I forgot DLR's "Ladies Night In Buffalo" off of Eat 'Em And Smile! Vai's solo is... wow.

That certainly was an impact record for Vai.

SO many great songs between those years. I can't pick 5.

Angel in White - Jim Gillette
Freight Train - Nitro
Back on the Streets - Invasion
Animal (Fuck Like a Beast) - W.A.S.P.
Danger - Mötley Crüe

In that order. As for a non-ordered list as a continuation (I'm not done, dammit!)...

Sweet Cheetah - W.A.S.P.
Show No Mercy - W.A.S.P.
Turbo Lover - Judas Priest
You've Got Another Thing Comin' - Judas Priest
Mirror Mirror - Jim Gillette

Never heard those Jim gilette tunes

In no particular order:

Whitesnake - Still of the Night
Malmsteen - You Don't Remember
Invasion - No Substitute
Dio - The Last in Line
Dokken - Unchain the Night

My bass player refused to play Unchain the Night because it's mostly just a drone on the E string for the bass. I like it though.

To me it has a memorable guitar solo from Mr. Scary
