TURBO album songs in the mid 80s in Japan. I just bought this album again for the first time in 27 ? years.  I have been actually collecting entire albums. About 5 more studio albums to go. Not sure if I would go Live and Competion albums (I have METALOGY and Unleashed in the East.

 First Priest album I ever heard was Painkiller. From the opening drum track, I knew I'd love this band forever. And I can't wait to see them live!!!
[Grasshopper3374] Sunday, August 28, 2011 10:36:13 PM 
The first Priest song I heard was "livin After Midnight." I thought it was cool! My old band, Movement, used to encore with that one every night; we thought it was good to send people home with a good drunk driving song. I hope Halford had a ride or money for a taxi!
[TouchOfEvil6290] Thursday, August 25, 2011 8:29:17 PM 
 Painkiller!!! Im a youngin'.  Once I heard the sweeps in the first solo I was hooked.  I believe I may have peed my pants, I say may because I don't want to admit to it just yet at sake of looking like a toddler :) 
[Crista] Thursday, August 25, 2011 8:27:32 PM 
I'm for the chronological approach :))
so I started from Rocka Rolla
I loved it... and I never stopped
[catwood] Wednesday, August 10, 2011 4:06:50 PM

[Nupe The Ripper] Wednesday, March 09, 2011 2:09:52 AM 
First song I heard was You've Got Another Thing Comin'. After listening to a few more songs, I bought the Killing Machine CD in early 2007 and have been hooked ever since.
[MotherSun] Wednesday, March 09, 2011 12:47:57 AM 
I had first heard "Metal Gods" from British Steel, but the first Priest album I heard in its entirety was Sad Wings of Destiny.
[EdgarV72] Tuesday, March 08, 2011 4:57:16 PM

The first Judas Priest song I ever heard was Hellrider, which my sister was blaring  in her room. I was 13 and the only music I had listened to before being mesmerized by the Priest was classical music, so at first I was like "what the hell is that noise!?". As I entered her room to demand that she turn it down I was blasted by an un-hindered metal meltdown of sheer metalic goodness....since then and forever more I have been a devout Priest fan
[PhillipMousseau] Tuesday, February 15, 2011 10:01:07 PM 
first song i heard was victim of changes sad wings of destiny my brother was listening to the album i was 13 ever since ive kneeled at the alter of the priest

Hi Budred, I've found the way to give you an answer quoting your message. I was only a stupid 'maiden', but now Judas gave me knowledge!!


  [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Budred from Thursday, July 22, 2010 6:09:05 AM)
[metallo] Friday, July 23, 2010 4:09:05 AM 

If you want to see a very good concert in Italy, expecially Metal, you have to move to Milan (more than 500 Km from where I'm living - near Rome). If you're happy you can have something in Bologna (300 Km) or Florence (200). Rome is really out. We have to POPE !!!

I saw JP once in Florence, once in Bologna, once in Milan and once in Rome (Ram it down Tour)

I've no problem to take my car and drive for hours, it's my job, but sometimes you have other problems so I've lost many concerts.

Going often abroad for my job (expecially northern Europe) I always check on internet to see If I can see some concerts and I saw some in germany (very heavy country). I travel 'Dressed to kill' (with fuckin' tie) but there's always a Priest T-shirt on my luggage.

[Budred] Thursday, July 22, 2010 6:09:05 AM 
I've mentioned it a few times on here already but I am so glad I live where I do when it 
comes to music. I've had the opportunity to see nearly every band that I've wanted to see.
There are more beautiful places to live in this country as far as landscape but the concert
atmosphere around me is fantastic. 
    Wheeling, W,Va.
    Pittsburgh, Pa.
    Akron, Oh.
    Youngstown, Oh.
    Cleveland, Oh.
    Columbus, Oh.
    Cincinnati, Oh.
    Detroit, Mi.
    Sparta, Ky.
Nowhere on this list requires more than a 5 1/2hr drive with most of these places being within two hours of me.
Nearly every touring band hits one of these places.

Hi Budred,

it's good for you to stay in the States. Here in Italy if you talk about Metal you have only Maiden or some Black/Trash/Sped and so on.

I had few possibilities to see them  (4) in concert but everytime is a great experience and I really hope to continue.

I've a dream. To see them playing in Birmingham (UK) !! 

Ohhh yeahhh

BRITISH STEEL.

I was 15. I knew few of metal and looking for some metal records a saw a fantastic image. It looked so metal. Once at home... Well now it is History. I've just bought in germany (in fuckin Italy is quiet impossible) teh deluxe edition of 30th anniversary. Next year it will be my 30th anniversary with Judas Priest. 

Fast and furious i run the universe...

Hi scthree05, welcome to the board! It sounds like you have one COOL sister! Screaming for Vengeance was also the album that started my love of Priest. For me it was The Hellion/Electric Eye. It absolutely blew me away. I had never heard guitars played like that or in harmony the way that Glenn and KK do. And then of course Rob's voice!! That was it for me - I had found what I was looking for! To this day, no other band makes me feel the way that Priest does when I hear them !So welcome aboard, I hope you enjoy your time on the boards!
