Judas Priest - Victim of Changes (Live Vengeance '82) THE WOLF HUTNERZ Reactions

[@dtswingle]

Being a teenager in the early 80s was the greatest gift a human being has ever received on earth.

[@chrissykinney1126]

1982 Iron Maiden opened for Priest still the best double I've ever seen . Both bands were on a rampage.

HELL YEAH...I've been waiting for somebody to drop that particular hydrogen bomb...I caught em at their Huntington WV stop. That show was STOOPID great. Two right down the checklist, first ballot, Hall of Fame, headlining bands at the same place and time. I still have the ticket stub. Camped out in line for two days for em to start selling em.

You have no idea how awesome it was to get a new album from bands like Priest, Sabbath, Zeppelin, Dio, Maiden, Ozzy, Rush, Scorpions and AcDc every year for about 10 years back in the mid 70s to the mid 80s

[@luisnunes2010]

Priest's last three albums can stand right next to the ones from the 80's.

There's a special place in hell for whoever told Def Leppard it was okay to go five years between albums. Way to lower the standards for everybody; hope you're frying.

[@davidmel2158]

I was at the opening show of the SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE tour down in Bethlehem PA …. road trip from CT with my bass player. It was at Lehigh University gymnasium …. a small place by Priest standards. 4th row on the floor caught a guitar pick & got showered with Rob’s sweat multiple times as I clawed to the barrier. The mighty Brits left us drained & deaf for a couple days. Easily one of my top 5 shows of all time. And just imagine how crisp & powerful Rob’s vocals were on that night compared to this video after being out performing night after night.

[@METAL4EVER.]

Rob Halford...Best heavy metal singer ever. Downing-Tipton.....Best heavy metal couple of guitarrist ever. Nothing more to say.

[@metalhead4135]

I agree with Downing & Tipton but I think Bruce Dickinson is a better singer .

[@tippedduke]

I am "fortunate" to be old enough to have went to the Screaming for Vengeance tour when it hit Seattle, WA in the 80's. It was f%^k'in awesome! Downing and Tipton - it doesn't get much better.

[@christophersims3319]

I don’t know, I love these guys but Smith/Murray Dave/Marty Young/Young. I think both Rob and Bruce would agree, Ronnie is number 1

Saw them the 1st time in 78, N.Y.C. The song came from their 75 album, their 2nd album sad wings of destiny!!

[@louisricesr3982]

I saw that tour and actually this song is from the 70’s. I actually saw them in 81 for the first time.

[@et781]

Ah yes, 80s was a great time for heavy metal. I remember those days and large concert venues. Priest, Dio, Maiden, Scorpions, Rush and even saw some new bands at the time at large clubs like Japanese band, Loudness.

[@TyHitzemann]

I was there...rwaz really amazing times. Saw this very tour my senior year. Everything after was really, just, aftermath of these legendary giants!

I saw Priest a couple times, they put on quite the show! GOOD TIMES, & GREAT TIME to be alive, growing up with the best music! 😁 Great reaction😊

[@B-a-t-m-a-n]

This song first appeared on "Sad Wings of Destiny," widely held by many as Priest's best album. You ought to give it a listen, the whole album is GOLD.

[@rdhudon7469]

I saw this tour in Canada . I saw them several times in the eighties . Their shows got bigger and bigger . This is the band that can claim they took the blues out of metal and made it pure metal . Halford is the metal god !

Freewheel burning and Rapid Fire is Real Heavy Metal. First Double Bass Drums in Rapid Fire. They certainly paved the way.

[@Eurynomea]

Glenn Tipton is probably the finest guitarist I've ever seen in 45 years of concert-going. I've seen JP at least a dozen times over the years and they always satisfy every metal craving imaginable.

[@jimmys9882]

The concert was 82, this song is much older than that. Priest popularized the leather look, head banging, and dual guitar attack that defined 80’s metal

[@gilko61]

I know this is an old thread, but I just saw it so I'll comment anyway. Thank you for using this particular performance of Victim of Changes. So many reactionistas use the same outdoor stadium show where they are clearly overheated and the acoustics are inferior. This show is a better performance, and far more typical of a night with the Priest. I can say this, having seen 7 tours beginning with British Steel. Their live shows were stunning, not to mention LOUD. Look at all those Marshalls and think enclosed venue. I was at the front of the stage near the left stack during one of the shoes, and my ears rang for 3 weeks.

[@paulhabat6338]

Judas Priest's first album came out in 1974! Rocka ROLLA ! Had a bottle cap that looked like the coca cola cap. But said Rocka ROLLA ! 82... Far from the early stages of metal ! This was on the Sad Wings of Destiny album. I believe released in 76.

[@threecampbells]

Saw them open for KISS in 1979, then the next time was 1982 again as the headliner. This song was from 1975's Sad Wings Of Destiny and best recording in off the unleashed in the east live in Japan, best live Judas Priest.

I was at that show. They played so loud that they were knocking acoustic tiles from the ceiling. It was an awesome show. I've had the pleasure of seeing them 7 times in the 80s and 90s. I saw White Snake and Iron Maiden open for them at the Auditorium North Hall in Memphis when I was 17. They never put on a bad show.

[@LLiivveeeevviiLL]

Maiden opening for them, that is cool. With time Maiden is the bigger band but myself gaining musical awareness around the early 80's they where equal. When was it you saw them?

Song is from 1976, Priest introduced and created the leather and stud heavy metal look. Black Sabbath and Judas Priest are both from Birmingham, if Sabbath made it heavy, Priest made it METAL!

I lived through it, I was a freshman in high school in 1980, the 80s were the greatest time in medal an rock history, just my opinion. My childhood Buddy is the current drummer for Judas priest's Scott Travis. He grew up here in Virginia with us great great drummer . I don't know if you all checked out pain killer, but it's amazing.👏🔥💯👍

[@ferickmaliki8746]

Yeah Travis gave more "speed" to Judas Priest.. 🤘

[@richardkey4289]

Cool, dude ! Did Scott know his calling to provide percussion early on, or was he just a normal kid ? I first heard him in Racer X , had that live album , played the cassette to death, then next thing ya know, dude is propelling the Painkiller album

[@kcrich1310]

Oh yeah. Got to see those guys live back in the 80s. Nobody was texting during a show back then. Even if they could've.........

[@paulwhite7972]

The parent album of this song came out in March 76. You're right. Many bands that came later (specifically Iron Maiden) took the Priest blueprint and ran with it. Basically, Judas Priest single handedly invented metal as you now know it, back in the mid 70s. I saw them a few times late 70s here in the UK. Always awesome. I strongly suggest that you listen to the whole album (Sad Wings Of Destiny) and reflect on how that one album changed the whole scene from 'rock' (Purple, Sabbath etc) to 'metal' It has to be said, its also a brilliant album

[@Alguear]

Next: The Sentinel, live 1984. Judas Priest is a many facets bands and they change a lot in every album.

I had this concert on VHS back in the mid-80’s and I used to watch EVERY morning before I went to work. Along with Iron Maiden, Judas Priest ruled the heavy metal world back then and I couldn’t get enough of them. I played in a band that covered a number of Priest songs and they were always my favourites. Ahhh, bring back the 80’s....

[@mix6809]

The amazing thing about this song (apart from being a classic) is that it's from 1976. There wasn't any other metal sounding like this back then...

[@kevinford4123]

Being someone who IS old enuff to have lived thru this time, you were so right. I saw the Pittsburgh stop of this very tour. I still remember the chills I got when the lights suddenly went off, & the spoken word intro to Number of the Beast blasted out, letting us know Maiden was about to kick some arse. But then Priest came out to remind us that they were the true Metal Gods. It was my first real metal show, & altho I have seen some great rock concerts over the years, this one was the best, in my humble opinion. I am a musician to this day, inspired largely by this very show. Thank you for bringing back some amazing memories with this vid.

[@chrislatham4235]

Saw this tour.... Screaming for Vengeance '82 and Defenders of the Faith in '84. It was a great time to be a Metal Head. There's only 1 Metal Band that has stood the test of time and is still kicking ass today and that's The Mighty Priest. Celebrating 50 years of Metal this year.
