My favorite solo is from the criminally underrated (I hate using that word, but it's needed here) "Reckless". It doesn't get played live and seems it's forgotten by Priest. It's so melodic, it brings tears to the eyes 😭.

[@franckloievin3214]

so I do

[@johannjohann6523]

Randy Rhoads is my guy. I can't play guitar worth shit. I mean I can play it. Put my hands where they should be on the neck, pick the proper strings, and it still sounded like hell. After 2 years of guitar lessons (14-15) (and I was actually a damn good trumpet/French Horn player in band - but that really doesn't count does it? lol) I told my guitar teacher I was "thinking about taking a break". The first words out of his mouth before thinking was "Thank God"! LOL The majority of the songs I "learned" was Judas Priest. Back then, and still today my favorite metal band. But I didn't give up. I worked all summer, saved and bought my first drum set at 16 (brand new too. $1,800 in like 1990. My family wanted to kill me. lol Life's too short to play shitty instruments or have shitty half ass stereo equipment! At home or in the car!). Still playing drums and have a pretty nice Pearl Birch set with Zildjian and Sabien B20 bronze cymbals right now with the Pearl eliminator pedals. Pretty sweet. . Always spent more on my cymbals than my drums, because I didn't want to sound like I was playing trash can lids! Even on my first set. . Now I "can" play those bloody things pretty good! LOL! Still can't play guitar. No Dave Grohl here. But, it did teach me about the guitar, and learn to read the music, so it still helped my overall musical ability. More drummers should learn how to read regular music and at least "try" with another instrument for that reason. Understanding song structure, and melody is always a good thing. (PS An amazing metal album from Greece: Sakis Tolis - Among the Fires of Hell (in English). Solo album released free on KZbin, and I'd say best metal album 20121. And if you are not familiar with 2 Japanese bands: Bandmaid - Thrill. 5 piece all girl band that is just something else (in English). And Ningen Isu - The Battle of the Deities, or Heartless Scat for introduction. They are a 3 piece metal band and been around for awhile. But in the last 7-8 years really came into their own and have some very good and consistent song writing (in Japanese). Lastly gotta mention another Greek band "Villagers of Ioannina City - Age of Aquarius. Best rock album 2022 (in English). The entire album, their sophomore release is excellent. Not a bad song on it, and a good journey concept album (in English).(sorry but for something completely different, can't even describe her except she's good. Amelia Arsenic - "oxytocin" and "Purity". Really most of her stuff is pretty good, and something not like the others. lol You might like her. Most everybody I turn her on to do.) I'm also a pretty big Pendulum and Knife Party fan too. I think Rob Swire is one of the best overall musicians, song writers, andartists out there these days.(For something hardcore Pendulum - Witchcraft Rob Swire D and B remix. It hits hard and is a good way to challenge your stereo system!). Disclaimer: All songs best enjoyed turned up and "felt" not just "heard". LOL! Take care and keep on Rockin' my friend! Life without music (and drums) would be a Mistake!

[@BrianMcDonald]

I've always seen him as criminally underrated. His solos maintain a melodic feel as well as a storytelling aspect that is in many ways was never matched by other more recognized guitarists. His solos never serve solely as a technical showcase, and even when the solos got more complex they always served to take the song to new places and in many cases added even more depth to some already great songs.

[@BryannaHitchcock]

Glenn Tipton is criminally under-rated. Top 5 metal guitarists for me. I used to look forward to hearing new solos when they put out a new album. These isolated tracks are insane. Thanks for posting them.

[@OldGuitarMan]

As a fan, it’s still difficult to come to terms with the reality that he really can’t play anymore - and that there’s no way back, no medical treatment, no help. All things end, but the goods have been delivered and we - none of us - will forget what GT gave to our lives and to metal music. The encores he does with the band now, they’re so bittersweet, equal parts heartwarming and heartbreaking. In the end, time takes everything from us.

Incredible player,with KK’s different style they worked so amazingly well together

For me, if I had to pick just one Tipton solo to showcase, it would be his solo in Beyond the Realms of Death. It has everything and is a timeless masterpiece. It's melodic, it has parts that shred, is has feel and emotion, it sings. It is a story within a story.

[@suepeteking743]

You’re absolutely right. Beyond the realms of death is a masterpiece in guitar playing. I am a big kk fan. However, the solos on that song are top notch the solo isn’t real fast but every last note has meaning.

@@suepeteking743 I enjoy KK too. He and Glenn had different styles that complemented each other very well, even in the same song.

[@czaxis]

I owe Glenn a debt of gratitude. During the Angel of Retribution tour I brought some of my JP record albums to the show. I waived them around and they must have caught Glenn’s eye. During their curtain call I rushed to the stage. Glenn reached out and signed my Screaming for Vengeance album. My dad had Parkinson’s too. Sucks.

What I loved about Glenn was no two solos were alike. He gave you something different every song and his sound transcended to many different eras.

Ayup, as a huge fan through late 70s and all of the 80s, Painkiller was a revelation, and because it was Priest, I knew this wasn't studio trickery, it was Priest going to a whole new level. The guitars on this record are among the best I've ever heard recorded, still now 30 yrs later

[@SamPlaysBass49]

I think you hit the nail on the head... Glenn pushed himself more-and-more each album. He both innovated himself and adopted innovations others made. The solos on the Painkiller album were musically brilliant, and so unique that it really led guitar players like me to think "How can someone actually play what he just played?" My favorite Glenn Tipton solo is probably Hell Bent for Leather. Maybe Painkiller, but I feel like his solos in Painkiller are almost entire songs themselves.

[@worstknightmayor4439]

Agreed, but, the emotional solo of screaming for vengeance is cool

[@shawnatl3347]

He is my all-time favorite guitarist, and the reason I still 40 years later listen to priest every day. It’s the feel and the emotion of the playing that separates him from his peers. Favorite solo is Dreamer Deceiver Sad Wings Of Destiny.

And I'm still proud & knowing and leaning towards to listening Judas Priest for all these years. It resonates me when I needed courage, when I'm facing tough times , even when I'm facing live or die situations Judas Priest music put me thru it . Thank you Mr. Glenn Tipton and all the band members who created Judas Priest music.

You are correct! Glen did do tapping before Eddie! @ 4:01 in 1978 but Eddie did Eruption in 1978 too!! So who was first????

[@elcee4556]

Glenn Tipton is my favorite guitarist. His playing is just so memorable and amazing. My favorite solos of him are Hell Bent for Leather, Delivering the Goods, A Touch of Evil, Electric Eye, Genocide, Painkiller, Sentinel, Fever, Living After Midnight, Desert Plains, White heat red hot, Metal Gods, and the all time best Beyond the Realms of Death. Glenn was always the main highlight every time i seen Priest. The only member I can watch play and feel starstruck. If i ever have the chance to meet him. I would give him the biggest hug possible and just say thank you for making all of the music with Priest. Really sucks that he has parkinson but the fact he still makes it for 3 songs when he feels good that day is just a treat itself. He doesn’t even have to play just show up and every real Priest fan will show the respect for him. I definitely cried that last time I seen Priest and they played No Surrender with Glenn at that same venue I first saw Priest 10 years back with the metal masters tour. Jones beach. My love with Judas Priest has never died in fact grows stronger every year. ALL HAIL THE METAL GODS!!

[@Kreln1221]

*For me, it would be **_Dreamer._** There's just so much tragedy and anguish in it, and he really makes you feel it..., plus, the way Rob's vocals harmonize with it..., it gives me goosebumps... And while it may not be as intense as some of his later work, the pure organic tonality of an oldschool Gibson, plugged into a Rangemaster Treble Booster, then plugged into the "Normal" channel of a classic dimed out 70's 100 watt Marshall 1959 head... THAT is pure oldschool rocktone...*

Tipton is my favorite heavy metal guitar player since I was 14 years old (I’m 36 now). He’s the total package: feeling, technic, sound, composition… If I listened to some other metal guitarrist who was better than him in some aspect, this same guitarrist lost to him in all others.

[@mx4menot4u]

As someone who has been practicing a few of Glen Tipon’s riffs, I really appreciate the isolation. It’s great to hear his tone!

[@valeriotorchio]

Tipton's solo I've listened to more than any other is 'A Touch of Evil', back to back with 'Beyond the Realms of Death'. To be honest, Tipton kinda vehiculated neoclassical nuances in Heavy Rock/Metal writing 'The Ripper', which, btw, hasn't even got an actual solo.

[@thebreeze12]

As other's have said, probably one of the most under rated guitarists in metal. Everyone always talks about Eddie, Randy, Dime, Zakk, Vai, Satch, Hetfield/Hammett, Mustaine, even Murray/Smith are talked about more than Glenn and KK. Absolutely nothing wrong with mentioning those names, but both Glenn and KK deserve so much more for what they can do on the axe and for their contribution to metal guitar. The 2 of them pioneered the twin guitar attack in metal, took what Tony did and gave it that edge and precision that helped broaden the sound of metal. They brought it out of the blues and in simple terms...straight into metal. Too many great solo's and riffs to merely pick one, but one of my fave's of Glenn's would be the solo from All Guns Blazing, KK's I'm thinking his solo in Jawbreaker or his into to Metal Meltdown.

[@zeem3366]

I love Glenn Tipton and combined with KK they were unstoppable best duo ever till KK went right out of his mind. Priest will always be my favorite band ever in the world, i've been listening them since 1979 and i won't stop till i'm dead.

[@ltxr9973]

When it comes to Glenn's style I always have to think of Rob Halford saying that he plays leads the way someone would sing. That's kind of the perfect description. He adopted a lot of techniques over the year, like all the sweep picking later on but he always kept that sense of melody, a lot of feel in his bendings. He might not care about music theory but honestly, someone who has played piano always has some degree of understanding of music theory. The way a keyboard works you just can't help to learn some of it, it's like second hand smoking.

[@221b-l3t]

People like that say the don't know theory because they know how deep it can go. He wasn't analysing counterpoints in Baroque music. But any pianist knows more theory than 90% of guitarists.
