Saxon – Live Innocence – The Power and the Glory [2003, DVD]


Live Innocence – The Power and the Glory is a DVD released by heavy metal band Saxon in 2003. This DVD has combined two VHS videos released in the late 80’s: Live Innocence released in 1986 and Power & The Glory, The Video Anthology released in 1989.

Much of the Live Innocence performance is taken from the album Innocence Is No Excuse released the previous year and which was hailed as their best work since the classic Denim & Leather – here they perform the hard rocking Play It Loud from Denim and Leather. The promo clips for Back On The Streets and Rocking Again are also included at the beginning and end of the concert footage, as well as a thrashing medley of four of their biggest album tracks Heavy Metal Thunder, Stand Up And Be Counted, Taking Your Chances, and Warrior.

The Video Anthology follows on the DVD bringing all those 80’s rock memories flooding back…the tight pants, the big hair – they feature in each of the video promos that accompanied the singles between 1983 and 1988. There are 7 UK chart hits here which helped Saxon attain 61 weeks in the UK charts during the 80’s, including Power and The Glory, Northern Lady and Ride Like The Wind. Saxon also had 8 top 40 albums during the 80’s.
