Judas Priest fan thread

[BlazeES]

Another Priest fan here. A lot of head banging to their tunes growing up. Not so much now, but have several albums for the times when I'm in the mood.

'Screaming' and 'Point of Entry' are must own, must play in my book! no matter how old you get...

I remember when Point of Entry came out I bought it immediately as a teen. Initially I was like WTF is this following up the legendary British Steel??? It quickly grew on me though and is still a fave. Seemed like almost a guick return to Hell Bent for Leather era

UK Point of Entry on the left, Canadian Priest Live on the right

Back to early Priest, both versions. Have the black sealed also. Beautiful atwork on these fragile sleeve

Picture does not adequately show just how nuclear orange this German Rocka Rolla is LOL, it has that wierd pearl pinkish hue when viewed at an angle. The UK only Killing Machine is deep bloodred vinyl

More import coolness

Here's a few more, promo's and import stuff. The 1st one on the left is the first import I ever found as a kid. Next is The Ripper 12" UK ep w/ 2 other early tracks from Sad Wings. Locked in is a 12" UK but the cover is actually a huge poster. Next row on left is a very rare silver label DJ promo only from the 2lp Metalworks set. There is a Japanese version also that I don't have yet w/ a cool cover. Next up is the Living After Midnight 12" UK ep from the British Steel album w/ 2 tracks from Hell Bent for Leather. Last is another DJ promo

Damn look at all this stuff!! Mine and my 3 year old Keaton's devil horns are up!!! Rock on Ron !!!!

Very tough 1st US press of Stained Class w/ the very coveted photo innersleeve. Only the earliest copies came with these. I guess they were nixed because of printing costs. Probably around 500-1000 came with one
