"Blitzkrieg" by Blitzkrieg is one of my fave tracks. (Even if the riff does sound suspiciously like "Hocus Pocus" by Focus!)
"Lightning to the Nations" by Diamond Head seems like the holy grail of that particular movement -- huuuuuge influence on Metallica in particular.
A very good book on the the development of various metal styles is "Sound of the Beast" by Ian Christe.
