One of the best metal albums from '70s. Riffs, vocals, drumming... Godlike.

I just listening this because of SB ... I don't think epic heavy metal belongs here, maybe it must be removed, like I suggested remove epic prefix from HM... cant see epic HM bands anymore, maybe this one, seems refixed again .
I don't hear epic HM, IMO its prog rock, more King Crimson meets Rainbow in demo studio. Prog rock it is, not metal at all , not HM as we know, good album I like it, but bad quality , still ...

Legend is pure heavy metal with epic touches. But remember we're dealing with Bad English here who also claims Kill 'em All isn't thrash metal.
Btw totally no prog rock in this American Legend.

Cool album. Not the most heavy, not the most epic, but it's an example for other bands to follow, and they sure did, and took it further and made it more refined. An interesting listen nevertheless and for sure an important album for development of heavy metal.

Wow, didn't know this rather obscure band is here on MS.
A great album I discovered a little too late (but better late than never I guess).
