I'd say Rob was on this night! Awesome

[natronlut]

i am glad i saw judas priest last consert in sweden. it was fucking amazing. rob lost his voice a little after playing THE SENTINEL. but it didint bother me at all because it was amazing

[Klitschko89]

[MetalSchlicht]

[terrafullsight]

I DON'T CARE I LOVE THE MAN, & NO 1 WILL EVER COME PARE!!!!!!!!

FUCK RIPPER OWENS!!!1

[MrSammyr63]

Nobody and i mean nobody compares with halfords range from 1977 to 1990 this man was basically a possessed freak of nature dickinson tate udo klause meine whoever could not touch halford during this time.

[seventhson2024]

I'd give a kidney to be able to go back in time to see them live back then. I was born too late to see the glory days of heavy metal.

[AmericanSurvival101]

Folks..........

What is really crazy...... is to think about how many poor young boys spilled their metal love all over his face back stage that night......

Just saying.....

Think he called them from the next town...

:))

[yumeishinzen]

Rob's voice is razor sharp. It is out of this world. Just amazing...

[CarlettoPuglia]

I loved the way the two guitarists exchanged solos !

[strashful]

Halford is amazing..can you still hear is scream in your head..by 83'. Thanks to the metal Gods

[lordofoldwisdom]

All hail the Metal Gods ! \../

[kkdowning1000]

Judas Priest has to be in the Hall of Fame million records sold one of the best live bands the best vocalist Rob Halford

[MetalSchlicht]

Ahh,chill up my spine!! Was my fave band of that time and that meant alot considering we had ourselves a new blast of metal with Maiden,Krokus,Scorpions etc....

[TRUEMAN8919]

BEST METAL BAND OF THE HISTORY..BEST VOCALS OF THE HISTORY...GREAT SONG!! AMAZING JUDAS PRIEST!!!!

[lunaticmusicmaker]

Man, when he does that scream, no one, NO ONE sounds like Rob....PRIEST!!!!!!

[iloveitall]

this songs like holding your ears on an exhaust of a jet engine.

Lifting me up!!!

[bs1174]

Saw this tour twice w/ Maiden's "Beast on the Road" tour. Metal Magic.

[Marcus666Sund]

when I listen to Skin oh my teeth with Megadeth, I always think of this masterpiece!

[sdnchicago]

Glenn and KK-fuckin' awesome. They rocked it better than anyone ever and no one will be able to take that away.

[jaimegaton]

FUCK.....No one like Judas Priest......They are the best heavy metal band ever.

[AAtaak]

possibly the most awesome thing on u tube

[TubeFreakJonas]

@AAtaak - dammit I just said that about BLOODSTONE lol!

Speaking of that I'm also amazed how "Billy Gibbons-bluesy" Glenn Tipton can sound at the beginning of BLOODSTONE, 'co's he's also a hell of a shredder. On RIDING he plays BOTH his album solo bits AND the KK Downing Trade-off licks, impressive also.

[RUKEAL]

How do you beat that?!!

[TiazaLynn]

Fuck me!

[Alecsull]

ri-ding-on... the WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIND!!!!!

[Quietus5]

Geeeez. There's no power like the Priest! That song is legendary.

[HeartekMarco]

Always follow the priest!

[cisco9x]

I was in the audience but I'm sure this was Hammersmith 84...Epic

[zexedearth89]

@cisco9x

Dortmund,Germany 83 :)

[acca2esse]

Che spettacolo...la voce di Halford sembra davvero cavalcare il vento...

[ozbite81]

Judas in their prime...can´t get better than this!,,,,,,,,,thanx for the upload....for sharing this....Oz

[DivineMoleculeDMT]

2:07 love it. XD

[zexedearth89]

Thats Priest epic moment there man :)

[rdt78]

I LOVE THE PRIEST... HAIL FROM ITALY

[TheRealCritique]

some people sing high part of the time. This dude sings like two notes of the whole song below the high register. Some long ass notes too. Better get a teacher if you want to sing like this.

[TheEarnold]

@TheRealCritique you're right, the lead vocals are pretty insane here...

[bhuadotolis]

my favorite part stars at 2:02

[greatJerk78]

I saw them the first time way back in '80 i was 13 and since then i be a big fan and my Father lost his hearing :-))

[Mozzofull]

@greatJerk78 lol!! and not only to your name!!!!!!

[benstolen59]

Seeing Judas Priest in concert from 77- 90 was like witnessing a goddamn nuclear explosion. Maybe that why i still has brain bamage. Priest is the best.

[starblind88]

hahaha, dude, well said!

[RanReiUY]

Riding on the wiiiind!

One of my fave Judas Priest songs :D

[KustomKulture420]

@benstolen59 one day they will say seeing priest at all was special.....

[Klitschko89]

@benstolen59 Why i borned in 89....Too late......You re so lucky ;)

[pekoe]

blinding all in sight... wow tell it man_____ Bongs out to this Magic

[grunge2007]

Judas Priest Rules!!!!!!

Heavy Metal!!!!!

[ilpazzinista]

the face of rob at 2:15 haha great

[starlight771]

Primo Priest.  Epic!

[acca2esse]

I love this live-performance than studio-version.

[metaljr72]

Unbelievable range from Mr. Halford...wow! Nobody could touch this guy in his prime...nobody!

[UpInSmokeHq]

Got that right man fuck dickenson, plant, ozzy. Halford Is by far the best singer ever!

[metaldo0d]

i guess it is a matter of taste, i personally like dickinson the most, and ozzy well i just dont hear anything special about his vocals other than sounding nasal

[pekoe]

dickinson had lots of imagery an storytelling in his lyrics.. Rob I just the MASTER!!! Now pass the Doob an rock out

[axllovesslash]

geoff tate

[kranen1]

Hahaha, Geoff Tate is not anywhere close to Halford in any way.

[kranen1]

Maybe in you opinon, but in general, Halford is considered to be a better singer than Geoff Tate. He has better range, more power, more feeling and a rawer sound. Geoff sounds weak compared to Halford, or Dio for example :P

[UpInSmokeHq]

Very well said dude

[pekoe]

===Halford== POWER===

[zexedearth89]

@kranen1

Lololol Tate and Dio are not even at his knees :P Well..lets say his waist :P

Halford has the higher upper register ,the most power in his voice and a certain passion that makes u listen!

I can tell at least,been listening to this band since i was 6 years old :P

[johnstonebreaker]

@kranen1 Halford is one of the greatest singers in metal/rock and roll, however, technically, Geoff Tate is one of the VERY, VERY few (probably ONLY) singer(s) who is better. I am an extreme fan of both.

[kranen1]

@johnstonebreaker Yeah, his technique is flawless. But, great technique is not enough to be the best. Halford has more power and better feeling :) Also, he has that raw sound that none of those "clean" singers have. Tate, Kiske, Dickinson etc. You should also check out Mark Boals and Ray Gillen, great singers with great technique.

[johnstonebreaker]

@kranen1  I do like that rawness! Not only in vocals, but also a bit in a guitarist's style.

[BrianMont1]

@kranen1 He was great for 2 tours, but if you listen to bootlegs Tate lost his voice every year.

I'd say smoking and drinking didn't help but Halford smokes and drinks, not that much anymore, but retains his voice till today.

[kranen1]

@BrianMont1 Yeah, I saw him this summer and he wasn't good at all. They played songs from the new album, which sucks, and I didn't hear any high notes at all xD

[THUNDERBOLT1480]

heavy metal masterpiece!ONE of the best song!

[angelpollogol]

2:07 awesome

[acca2esse]

He seem to ride on guitars notes....

Incredible performance.

[alagon]

Halford is amazing here.

[mateusz2302]

incredible! :O

[mucaperetz]

why the people care about Halford sexuality? it's not of our own. the problem was the drumer, holland, a criminal rapist.

[zarni000]

you never know what the truth is. celebrities are often taken advantage of by people willing to lie for a quick buck

[PinkFloydAreGods]

You make a very good point, mucaperetz

[leunamme888]

Halford voice. Just incredible. Maybe the best in history of music. (in my opinion)

[jjjxxx777]

I agree, but also the guitar riffs made them second to none!

[affaceci]

you're right,

I hate homophobics

 just repressed bullshit...

[affaceci]

fuck you rocktoy

[visionmaster153]

Metal should unite - not divide.

You forget your roots, son.

[noobenn3]

Metallica sucks.

[mt312006]

2 : 10 great unison choreography

[ThrashHard08]

Dave holland was a Great drummer, to bad he turned out to be a Child Molester... the fucking asshole

[Drezy91]

Yeah, that was bad:( I don´t think Holland is such a great drummer but he contributed with a special sound to Priest;)

[michoi2]

clearly you live in a gay world

[rockabilly64]

Carlsberg don't do metal albums.

But if they did, they would do Screaming for Vengeance...

Judas Priest probably the Metal in the world ;)

[8t4ec]

The intro is better on RB 2! And cooler to.

Judas Priest ROCKS!!!

[americanmademachines]

Well now, didn't that just kick the most ass ever? Priest rules!!!!!!!!!!

[OscarBubb]

Seriously. Fakn sick man. i saw this tour and I definitely didn't appreciate it like I do now, I mean how tight were these guys back then? And Halford, just unreal, what a performance. Very nutsy.

[OscarBubb]

Maybe I shouldn't have used that adjective to describe the bands ability to sync, lol.... What I would do to be able to jet back in time and see this again at my age now, just phenominal man! Maiden and Accept on the (I think it was) Powerslave tour (maybe the Somewhere In Time) was also just a sick and unbelievably awesome show. Accept used to rock it hard back in the 80's, man they sounded almost exactly like their studio efforts... still good today too.

[davidyanity]

(breaths a breath of fresh air)Ahhhhh...finally a Judas Priest message board without that little asshole(Gabor1225)trolling around.

[switchsb]

i agree wit you

[Heinosity]

Hell yes! THE PRIEST MACHINE!

[adater]

Now that's fuckin' metal.

[riffdude1]

Judas Priest is great, thumb up for them for making this song. But when it comes to sing this song, I think Fozzy got a better cover of this song.

Fozzy - Riding On The Wind

[jjjxxx777]

We've fucking heard of Halford and Priest! Now who the fuck is fozzy?No one can effectively cover this!Your ears don't work!

[riffdude1]

Lol. You deserve a medal of rudeness, here you go my dear rude person, you deserve it.

[begantaile]

i heard the fozzy covers of riding on the wind and freewheel burning and definitely they are NOT better than this. never can no one better than priest. ever.

[pinokr72]

energia allo stato puro........

[Girowar87]

io amo halford...nessuno come lui sul palco..

[evilruler]

Cara, qual é o nome desse show???? Eu preciso saber, 83, deve ser muito foda.

[drim2u]

Wow, Judas! When I was in high school, I listened to this song. It beat my heart.

[mt312006]

halford definately sounds great in this concert....hes hitting every note effortless

[IronMaidenUllevi2008]

This video is taken from the Dortmund Rock Festival 17-18 December 1983.

Priest were on a bill with 7 other bands including Iron Maiden, Scorpions and Ozzy Osboune.

The Show was broadcast on German Television.

[angrykingofrock]

DAS ist Heavy Metal- nix anderes! Priest auf ihrem Zenith. So will ich es haben!

[bosoxyaz8]

At their peak totally at the musical peak. the best album(vengence) the best tour and still not millionares but on the cusp of being millionares. still young enough. just the way rob used to move around was very powerfull. and as a kid i saw this tour in san fransisco nov 1982. I like robs 1984 defenders look the best. the freewheel burning promo video is what im talking about.

[metalcruzer]

I love this period of the band. Especially Halfords screams from hell!!! Greatest metal scream of all time!!!

[bosoxyaz8]

Im going to see them august 31st with sabbath-dio,motorhead,testamen­t. this is also my favorite era also. saw both the screaming and defender tours.

[OscarBubb]

How is the show these days and how's Rob sound live?

I also saw them on this tour, East Coast, truly amazing. Don't think I appreciated it like I should have... Maiden and Accept on the Powerslave (lol maybe Somewhere in Time) tour was also stellar. Accept rocked it huge back then man, sounded just like their studio efforts.

[bosoxyaz8]

oh geez thats easy priest 1977-1984 was unlike anything that will ever be...again.

so to compare last year would be unfair and unjust...an wrong ya know.

[hellmutt1969]

Saw them 2 years ago, they look a little worn, but they sound as good as they did in 83.

[sjakie4]

this is 82'..

[mack1000]

Judas Priest - Screaming for Vengeance Album on Rock Band Tomarrow!!

[czek1976]

oh yeah, on rockband soon!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sanzu101]

cant wait for this to be released on rockband next week!

[iloveitall]

Man, if this aint ultimate metal - what is?

[shredder40]

theres a riff in that song that i never see them do live though it right when hes singin wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnn­nnddddddddddd there a big riff thats on the record wonder why they don't put that in there live its all great to me i hear it in my head anyway hhahahaahha

[doubleknuckled]

Halford´s vocals are much better than the 1982 video, so are Downing´s solos.

[metalmoss]

behold the power of the metal god!!!

[bcardamone]

Anyone know where this video comes from??? IS this an official release? If it is, I've never seen it.

[juancvanegas]

They sold their souls for metal

[metalmoss]

doesn't make any sense...metal gods cant sell their souls...they already own all

[seel5]

it makes perfect sense. they sold their souls to become metal gods.

[ArielJRG]

Amazing, all hail The allmighty Priest!

[Qrycius]

Dave Holland suck. HE is ugly as hell and he can't even play drums. Judas Priest should have kept Les Binks instead. HE IS AN AWESOME DRUMMER!!!!

[cdwillis]

Shit, at least they ended up with Scott Travis. He is badass.

[metalmoss]

hes a pedophile also

[metalmoss]

not travis...holland i mean

[OscarBubb]

Who is? Please don't tell me Halford? fack man, sad.... They really were great back then.

[kyuss4me]

Holland was a good fucken drummer, who cares about the personal shit... british steel, screamming for vengeance, defenders give me a break... I saw them live with Holland... he was flawless

[lubanater]

what dvd is this one?

[heavymetalgary]

I have this whole concert on dvd. with all the bands who played it. man god that show was fuckin' amazing.

[OscarBubb]

Any chance of you putting up a Torrent of that on Piratebay or the likes?

[conaty105]

fucking amazingly good performance

[geroldo909]

Best Priest Song Ever
