The favourite album of a friend of mine is "SAD WINGS OF DESTINY", the favourite Priest album of my father is "SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE" and my favorite Priest album is "STAINED CLASS". I mean that alone says a lot about the quality of this great british Heavy Metal band ! By the way, all albums with LES BINKS on drums are my fav Priest records. A small recommendation: if you want to hear a real Priest live album (and not Unleashed in the studio...) then try LIVE AT THE MUDD CLUB 1979. I wish they would release that concert on a vinyl record in the near future....

Judas Priest is my favourite band of all time,I could never rank their albums. IMO they have all hidden gems. Then again the one I listen to the most is Sad wings of destiny.❤

Great video,you speak well and know your music. I saw Priest in Bournemouth a few weeks ago and they were phenomenal. I had bought the new album a week before the gig and had listened to it probably 3 times. Since then like yourself I have played it almost every day...why,because it is absolutely amazing it really is. I have also played their back catalogue alot recently too on the back of this latest release. In fact it is almost 2am and I am going to play it now because I have to.

This was a fun list to read with all of the side projects included. Remarkably I agree with four of your top five! My top four Judas Priest albums are exactly the same with Nostradamus and Screaming for Vengeance flipped around. I've never seen anyone else yet that has this top five list.

Enjoyed the video Phil. Sad Wings is the one for me. An absolute classic. Never tire of it. Behave yourself!! :)

I rarely go past the first three albums. I probably play Rocka Rolla the most. It was the first one I bought and I played it constantly.

1. Stained Class 2. Sin After Sin 3. Killing Machine 4. Screaming For Vengeance 5. Sad Wings Of Destiny

Great ranking. I agreed with a lot of your comments, especially about individual songs. I would have had Stained Class a bit higher. I enjoyed the diversity of the '70s albums. As you say, light and shade. There were two other live albums not included here. One was Live Meltdown '98 which I haven't heard and the other was Live in London (both with Ripper Owens). The latter one is pretty good. I'm probably alone in quite liking Rocka Rolla. It's so different to the other albums that came after it that I feel it has it's own charm. My top ten based on what I play the most would be, 1. Invincible Shield. 2. Screaming For Vengeance. 3. Angel of Retribution. 4. British Steel. 5.Sad Wings of Destiny. 6.Defenders of the Faith. 7.Stained Class. 8.Sin After Sin. 9. Turbo. 10. Rocka Rolla. Every album has something worth discovering.

Hey Phil, great video I really enjoy the way you go about your reviews. I have never heard much Priest tbh, but when Invincible Shield was released I was obsessed and listen to it every day! Since then I have listened to more Priest albums and they are now up there as one of my favourite bands! Invincible is one superb album! Thanks again for the video.

Hi Phil loving the Judas priest CDs

Ha ha Halford did look like Tim Brooke-Taylor in 1980!

This was a very thought-provoking presentation. Plenty of reason to revisit and re-asses my opinion. My introduction to JP was Unleashed in the East so that spoiled me for almost everything else. It's still my favourite and I don't care Halford had to re-do all his vocals because of a stinking cold. Never understood why they added the 4 bonus tracks to the remaster but omitted Beyond the Realms of Death which would have fitted easily between Green Manalishi and Diamonds... Still keeping my fingers crossed for that UFO/Thin Lizzy-style boxset with all the recordings from that Japanese tour. I liked British Steel a lot but the sound, on my vinyl copy at least, was very thin and dry. Didn't buy POE but got Screaming for Vengeance. That was great. Fever is indeed a wonderful song. Great that you singled out that track for a mention. I really loved Defenders, also the very varied side two. I have the one with the Long Beach show but it cost me a lot more than a fiver. Turbo was a real downer for me. The title song okay and Out in the Cold of course but there's too much rubbish, for me anyway. Then came Johnny B. Goode and Ram it Down. I hated those. Priest were finished for me. It was years later that I found out they had sort of re-established their credentials with Painkiller.

Is it not missing the first two? As I understand it, there’s the set which makes up the Priest logo on the spines but its missing the first two albums. Then there’s a separate big set which does have the first two albums, it has all the Halford stuff up to 2011 and live albums but its missing the two Ripper Owens albums in the 90s. I’ve seen those two JP box sets but they are each missing stuff. I’ve not seen a box set that has everything. If you do think you have one, what year is it/the label? And it has the first two albums (Rock a Rolla, Sad Wings), the Ripper Owens albums and live albums?

I have been playing Invincible Shield every day since its release. Their best album of all time. One of the greatest albums by anyone, of all time. Unleashed in the East is their best live album. The Battle Cry bluray in 5.1 is excellent, because your watching it, in surround sound. The Epitaph bluray is even better in 5.1 Unfortunately the British Steel performance of the entire album was never released in Bluray 1080p. The DVD looked terrible. I saw it in HD once, from HD net channel. By the way, there's a reissue of Sad Wings of Destiny on CD the digi-pack is embossed. Very cool.i believe the masterpiece song from Firepower, the bridge to Invincible Shield was "guardians"/Rising from ruins.

Agreed on Stained Class. Exciter starts out with pounding drums, then its toned down and has this soft jazzy drum playing and soft guitars.

1)Sad Wings 2) Stained Class 3) Screaming 4)Rock a rolla 5) Hell Bent.......kinda lost interest after those, but I think my one and two are at the all time top of my heavy metal listings. & Victim of Changes was the first song I ever heard by them, it shocked me at how good it was back then.
