As part of the very good ‘Transmission Impossible‘ series, here the JUDAS PRIEST collection over 3 discs presenting each very different eras from the band.
While releasing an innovative and pioneering body of work in the latter half of the 1970s, the band had struggled with indifferent record production and a lack of major commercial success until 1980, when the album British Steel brought them notable mainstream attention.
In celebration of the band’s longevity, commercial & critical success, and musicianship, this new triple disc set presents three live recordings of the mighty Priest, all taken from FM radio broadcast at different era of their lengthy career.
Disc 1 contains Priest’s October 1979 show from Seattle, in Washington State, USA, while the band were on their ‘Killing Machine tour’.
Disc 2 presents their May 1986 concert from Kansas City, played as part of another US tour, while promoting the Turbo album, released in March the same year.
Disc 3 concludes this superb collection with Judas Priest’s gig in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in September 2001, a show which was played while promoting their Demolition album. Both the concert and the album featured, Tim “Ripper” Owens on vocals, Rob Halford’s replacement during his decade long hiatus.
Despite often being hailed as part of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal – termed by Sounds Magazine in 1979 – Judas Priest formed a decade earlier, in 1969. Hailing from Birmingham, the band’s best-selling album is 1982’s Screaming For Vengeance, with their most commercially successful line-up featuring Halford, Tipton, K.K. Downing, Hill, and drummer Dave Holland.
The 1979 performance showcase a band hungry for glory, energetic, a hot set full of fire. There’s an official album from this era, however this recording is unedited, raw, as it was captured not post-processed. Sound quality is fine.
On CD 2 sound quality very good, Judas at their most ‘commercial era, but on stage the band was heavy as ever.
Last disc is from the 2000’s, with Tim “Ripper” Owens at the mix, and a proof of how good he fit the band live, and how good metal vocalist he is. Sound quality is good, raw, metallic.
Horns up!
