Judas Priest - Ram it Down, New Haven 1988

The sound is a bit muffled, but this was one energetic performance! I consider the '88 Mercenaries of Metal tour to contain some of Halford's most inspired singing, with the San Diego and New Haven shows being particularly great, sound-wise and performance-wise. Here's a little taster from the great New Haven show, hope you like it.

@drquesadilla Ehh, I don't think those represent the whole of Glam, those are just the poppiest Glam bands, but I see your point.

[drquesadilla]

@METAAAAALYEAH It was diluted glam if anything. GLAM is music along the lines of Autograph and Poison. Anything shy of those levels of glamminess isn't full-on glam. The problem is when someone hears a band like Priest use even some glam elements in their songs suddenly they act like they're listening to Vixen.

@gojira931 hell yeah, that harmony and the crowd reaction are epic as hell

[METAAAAALYEAH]

@drquesadilla You're telling me "Wild Nights Hot & Crazy Days" wasn't Glam?
