treeduck Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I think I'll stick with the original album. I'm a bit sick of all these cash grabs. Just take Priest themselves, endless compilation albums, crappy box sets. And then remasters that add nothing with shitty bonus tracks etc. Come on MAN! These people would have me buying everything all over again and again and again. Screaming For Vengeance great album though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steevo Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 ^^^Not for me, I use discretion. It will be great to finally have one of my fave JP albums on CD with all that great bonus material. I don't buy many boxes and comps. as a rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta say I'm a sucker for bonus DVDs (esp that show!!!) but yeah I hear ya. If I had ALL their shit I probably wouldn't bother with it either. There is over-saturation with this kinda thing in the download age for sure. Def not my fave JP album but perhaps could scrape into Top 5. Another geeky list to follow shortly I'm sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rushgoober Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 QUOTE (Jack Aubrey @ Jul 20 2012, 01:14 PM) I saw Priest on that tour! Great show! Me too, and with Iron Maiden opening up for them! That said, I already own the remastered CD of Screaming for Vengeance, so I see no need to buy it again. It's one of the few albums from my young heavy metal days that I'll still listen to on occasion. Great album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, the show I saw was in Cincinnati, which was still reeling from the Who tragedy. The Cincinnati Gardens management kept turning on the house lights during the show, because everyone was SMOKING.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAccountant Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 As a rule I do not pick up (1) box sets, (2) best of compilation's or (3) CD's to replace my records. If I have it on vinyl thats good enough, no need to replace / supplement it with a CD. Of course if its work by Rush thats an exception. Since I have this on vinyl I would not normally go for it however I am always on the look out for live shows that I don't have on DVD and / or CD. If its live it will grab my cash and thats exactly what happened today. Picked this up and it just got done watching the DVD. It was well worth my hard earned $. Not only that, but I also picked up the 30th anniversary release of British Steel and that was definitely worth the $'s as well. Great DVD with that. Only got to see the mighty Priest live twice. Once on the Ram it Down Tour and once on Painkiller but those shows, esp. the Ram it Down show, were great concerts and these DVD's brought back all kinds of good memories. Truth is, I went to see them on Ram it Down because of the opening act, Cinderella. Cinderella put on a tremendous show and then Priest just blew them off the stage. One of the best concerts I have ever seen. If your a Priest fan I would suggest you pick this up. If your not, pick it up. You might become a Priest fan.

Steevo Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 As much as I like Screaming, Defenders owns it so much. Aside from the awful shite of Love Bites, Eat Me Alive and Heavy Duty, this album still packs a strong force and makes my lists time and time again. Agreement or disagreement, I would like to see it.

bathory Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I think I actually prefer Defenders to Screaming... I wouldn't say that either album "owns" the other but I give Defenders the edge. nothing touches 70s priest though, I hope we can all agree there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Wings of Destiny might be my fave metal album ever- and Defenders is a tad better imo if only for The Sentinel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think SFV is their best album, by far. I like DOTF a lot too, but slightly less. That's their apex IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 well it depends, if you lean towards what's heavier, the 70s stuff is your thing. if you're more into, I dunno, hair metal or something, 80s priest is your favorite 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 and yes EW77 I give defenders the edge because of the sentinel, that's one of the best priest songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
