What would have happened, if ... That's a question quite often asked regarding bands which did not fulfil their full potential. Leicestershire's Blitzkrieg are surely one of these bands. Many devotees of the glorious New Wave Of British Heavy Metal have expressed the opinion that they probably would have had a serious chance of making it, had they managed to keep it together in the first instance. Brian Ross was already making plans for 1982. But behind the scenes things were not looking good. Blitzkrieg played one final gig at Tonypandy in Wales and then split on December 17th 1981. No more Blitzkrieg in 1982. Jim Sieroto and Steve Abbey had left the band, forcing Brian Ross to look for alternative employment. In 1985, however, Brian Ross decided to re-animate Blitzkrieg to record the album that never was - "A Time Of Changes". He enlisted bassist Mick Moore, Jim Sieroto, additional guitarist Mick Procter and Satan drummer Sean Taylor. The resulting album for Neat Records was an excellent effort all around, and the fans were finally able to hear those legendary tracks such as "A Time Of Changes", "Hell To Pay", "Vikings" and "Saviour" in addition to new versions of old favourites such as "Blitzkrieg", "Armageddon" and "Inferno".
