Sinner was the song that opened me up to Priest. Great song.

[TheAccountant]

#144 - Judas Priest - Screaming for Vengence

 

Priest with its great double ax attack, plus Rob Halford at (or at least nearly at) his best. The album has The Helion & Electric Eye - songs that have become frequent concert starters. If you think thats all the album has, well, You've Got Another Thing Coming. Its just full of metal greatness from start to end.

 

The album is already on the list.

 

Dang - at 122. Missed that somehow. Must be going blind now that I turned a half century old this last Wednesday. Sorry about that.

Can't believe not one of you figured out my Britney Fox pick was a joke, especially considering the "case" I made for it.

 

Of course, if you did but left it on there to embarrass me, good job!
