A NWOBHM treasure chest?

a lot of these so called "NWOBHM demos" are not NWOBHM at all but on the softer side of things. the seller puts that description on anything with electric guitar.
I won a few and will report when they arrive. One of them though was a lucky fetch, TRIAD is suppose to be extremely rare and sought after NWOBHM demo.

For example the live tape with Smiler (which is not a demo but was recorded by someone of the Bridge House pub. It also didn't have anyone from Maiden on it because every future Maiden member left the band around 1975-6. Although it is possible vocalist Dennis Wilcox sang there as he returned to Smiler after Di'anno took his place.

I bought the Mean Machine demo. It's surprisingly really cool. It sounds a bit like Marty McFly rocking out
