Judas Priest - "Unleashed in the East" (1979) - Columbia Records
Hello Friends,
We're kicking out the jams tonight with Judas Priest's first ever live album recorded in Japan on their 1979 Hell Bent for Leather tour!
Featuring two amazing and well-placed cover songs, Fleetwood Mac's "The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Pronged Crown)" and the unbelievably great Joan Baez break-up anthem, "Diamonds and Rust". Wowsa!
There's also "Exciter", "Sinner", "Running Wild", "The Ripper", "Genocide", "The Tyrant" and the epic, "Victim of Changes".

This was Priest's Live at Budokan.
Listening to this record, one is continually reminded that Axl Rose owes his entire career to Rob Halford & Judas Priest! Same with you, Perry Farrell!
Man oh man, Halford at the height of his powers must have been beating the ladies off with a stick!
RATING: 4.5 i'll be damned here comes your ghost again out of 5
