Muiscal Gems - You've got Another Thing Comin'
One of my favorite genres of music is hard rock. Classic rock, punk, metal, power pop. I really enjoy the sound of heavy electric guitars and pounding drums!. I also love a good melody and there are actually some artists that can pull both of these off at the same time. I have an growing playlist on Spotify (userid: kerkphil) called "Best Heavy Music" that showcases some of my favorites.
One such group is Judas Priest. They are one of the pioneers of Heavy Metal, formed in 1969 and have been going strong since. My favorite song by Judas Priest is "You've got Another Thing Comin'" from their 1982 album, Screaming for Vengance.

Musical Gems - Gimme Your Money Please
BTS is the nickname of a K-pop band known in Korean as 방탄소년단 which translates roughly as "bulletproof youth group." My wife, who was born in Korea, is a big fan. But long before there was BTS, there was BTO - Bachman-Turner Overdrive.
Bachman Turner Overdrive was founded in the early seventies. Randy Bachman left the highly successful Canadian group, The Guess Who, in 1970. He formed a new group, Brave Belt in 1971 with his brother Robbie and Chad Allen, a former bandmate from the Guess Who. C. F. Turner and Randy's brother, Tim, joined the group after the first album. Turner took over the lead vocals from Allen who left the group. Brave Belt issued two albums and changed their name to Bachman-Turner Overdrive for the third album. The group's name came from the two surnames in the group, Bachman (Randy, Robbi, and Tim) and Turner; and from the name of a trucking magazine they saw in the Colonial Steak House in Windsor, Ontario.
BTO's first album was the eponymous Bachman-Turner Overdrive. And the first track on that album was a song called, "Gimme Your Money Please."
