Thanx, Budred. I have listened somewhat to the earlier Priest stuff, but it doesnt do much for me so far. That can change, of course.
For me, it gets really exciting with Turbo, and then it gets better and better with each album
What puzzles me is that I don't seem to share my other fave groups much with the regulars here
My five fave groups are (east-west): Priest, Dream Theater, Symphony X, Queensrÿche, and Nevermore (incl. Jeff Loomis' soloalbum) (of course I don't know what's east-west with the last two groups).
