[J.D. DIAMOND] Saturday, August 08, 2009 1:19:44 PM

Well.... the core of the band have been together for some time now. Yeah,they had some changes but it was for the better... Vocalist Biff  Byford and guitarist Paul Quinn are the only 2 members that were on the first Saxon record from 1979.............. Biff Byford,Paul Quinn,Doug Scarratt(guitars) and Nibbs Carter(bass) this group of 4 have been together since 1995 when Doug joined the band replacing  Grahm Oliver on guitars.  Steve Dawson left the band in 1986 and was replaced by Paul Johnson on bass. Paul Johnson left in 1988 and was replaced by  Nibbs Carter on bass.  Nigal Glockler the drummer   joined Saxon in 1982 and was on the 1983 "Power & The Glory"  album,and  had stayed with the band all the way up   till 1999...he left but came back and has been back since 2005.   X guitarist "Grahm Oliver" and X bassist "Steve Dawson" joined up together and formed the ridiculous outfit called "Oliver & Dawson's Saxon".!!!!  What a JOKE!!!    They at first were using the original Saxon logo....and when they did a show ,some people thought that they were going to see the "REAL" Saxon only to show up and see the "Oliver & Dawson's Saxon" with a shitty vocalist who could not come close to Biff!!!  Well,none the less Biff & the real "Saxon" took them to court and now they can't use the original Saxon font logo.........what a bunch of losers!!!!!  LOL!    [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Bev from Saturday, August 08, 2009 6:06:37 AM)   Bev wrote:   I've often wondered if it had not been for Judas Priest would I have been just as loyal to Saxon.  When I go back and look though, they've (Saxon) been through so many personnel changes!  Do you know why JD?
