One of the rare footage of the 1988 tour! I only have this one and not Ram it down! This is heavy metal from the mercenaries of rock world tour 1988!!! Enjoy!
Rob Halford is probably the only one who could sing this song at all. I don´t think anyone else could pull it off. It takes so much power to do it, and you must sing with full power all the time.
Arguably my favorite Tipton (and Judas Priest) solo of all time. Thanks so much for posting footage from one of Priest's most underrated tours. This would have been my first show back in Seattle '89 with Slayer opening in support for South of Heaven had it not been for my parents taking the car keys and putting the nix on the whole idea. Looking back, I should've said fuck it and bummed a ride to the coliseum. One of my few regrets...
Thank you,Feetmanica for sharing this video with us.Always great to see an early live performance of the Priest.I look forward to seeing them in the future on their farewell tour here in Southern California.The Metal Gods will always be rockin in my veins..
Wasn't too bothered about ignoring Ram It Down stuff on the '06 tour, although I think the album is ok if a bit different at times (that's Priest) BUT was very surprised not to hear any stuff from Defenders. The first side of the vinyl especially being fantastic stuff!
Slayer took over the opening slot a week after I saw the tour in St Louis. Our opener was Cinderella. They took 2 very different bands out with them for this tour.
Saxon? Haha xd They don't deserve to be mentioned with bands like Judas priest and Iron Maiden. The trio is, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, of course, not Saxon xD They're great, but not in that league. They fit better in with Manowar, Helloween etc etc.
Jackson, hahaha xD Hamer guitars in that video. Glenn still does use the same guitars, but KK changed to KxK guitars before their latest tour, with emg 81/85 pickups =)
@MrsBloodyMay i know, i really hate the epitaph setlist, its the same setlist they play since rob returned to judas just with 2 or 3 songs more like blood red skies
@sonnic1995 Check just the nostradamus tour, and see if it's the same songs...Devil's Child, Dissident Aggressor, Between The Hammer And The Anvil, Eat Me Alive...
I believe his official classification is a low tenor with a high falsetto. (An EXTREMELY HIGH falsetto!) In his heyday he had nearly 4 octaves at his command.
@02tweeks Indeed! They were moving to a more heavier sound at this point. They still did a few of the 80's hits in their set at this time too though. I think 'Turbo Lover' was a regular.. A shame they didn't film and release this tour.
My roommate and besti kim saw em in Memphis then. If it weren't for the tshirts and tix i would not recall a thing. Fu..ing alcohol stole another from me. Love PRieST and Kim says we had a great time....
I was actually at this show. I was front row balcony on the end on Tipton's side. It was by far the LOUDEST concert I have ever been too. This was filmed at the Hollywood Sportatorium in Hollywood Florida on their Ram It Down tour. Cindarella opened for them (they actually put on a pretty good show).

It takes so much power to do it, and you must sing with full power all the time.
Maybe Phil (in his prime)
Some say Halford's voice was at it's best during this tour.
Tipton and malmsteen has the best tone in my oppinion ;)

God, Ram it down... a great great album...
This is the best band in the world. No doubt!
one of the best performances...
my god the guitar is amazing!!

one of the best solos in metal....new bands could never shred like Glenn
Great song, havn't heard this one before
Mercenaries Of Metal Tour right?
Heavier and more crazy shredding from Tipton then from their previous Fuel for Life '86 tour- awesome thought!
I wasn't even around then.
I wish I was born in the 70s.
FUCK!!! I LOVE THIS MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, his Hamer Phantom GT, he actually started to use it 1984 :P
Yeah. But his vocal lines are sick, everyone would struggle.
wow he had hair back then. to bad they arent as good right now i wish i was alive to see all these good songs live
Rob's voice is amazing!
Larga vida al rock duro. Este tema es...sin comentarios.
Judas Priest is in a league all their own
Slayer took over the opening slot a week after I saw the tour in St Louis. Our opener was Cinderella. They took 2 very different bands out with them for this tour.
great song!!!!!
judas priest the best band ever!
Every time I look up Judas Priest or Heavy Metal, Lady Gaga pops up. I almost smashed my comuter into bits.
grande pela carajo!!!
You only forgot HARD AS IRON, easily one of the best Priest songs ever...
There is not even an argument, Halford was, is, and always will be the greatest metal vocalist!
MTV HSA NOT FILMED THIS SHOW LIVE ?
UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE
At that time MTV killed the Heavy Metal music already,no more loud music on their channel.
Everything was controlled
*sigh(in a good way)* always good to listen to the classics
@slashandmustainerox Nope, he came out 1998.
Saxon? Haha xd They don't deserve to be mentioned with bands like Judas priest and Iron Maiden. The trio is, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, of course, not Saxon xD They're great, but not in that league. They fit better in with Manowar, Helloween etc etc.

very alive..
I am so jealous.… Rob Halford had him a rock band and he knew that man was comfortable in his skin and he was doing what he did good grief

WTF Rob Halford has hair?!?! He has an awesome voice, sort of either castrato or baritone, that guy sings with 1 nut!
i dont agree coz he only uses single coil pickups and humbuckers sound better but fair enough, preference i supose.
This is my favorite band's least favorite album. Ram It Down sucked, and this song is one of the worst on it.
The guitar on this album kicks ass!
PLEASE, Hot Rockin, Desert Plains, Heading out to the highway and Solar Angels were classic ass kickers!
Yeah, the real high notes he did with falsetto, but most of the high stuff he used headvoice for ^.^
This show is awesome, but I still think the best show is the 1986 electric eye show in dallas texas
That intro‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️is …………….everything
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍🎸🎸🎶🎶🎤🎤
I believe his official classification is a low tenor with a high falsetto. (An EXTREMELY HIGH falsetto!) In his heyday he had nearly 4 octaves at his command.
Yeah, Yngwie is the best, but Tipton have the best tone of the heavy metal guitarists ;)
This is very good song, but Rob's voice...oh my god that night was terrible!!
@emericacore this was 88'... yes i realize that this is a year old comment
fuckin priest! I do a drum cover of ELECTRIC EYE! Chcek it out! 5 stars so far
THAT VOICE!!!
the intro is a better heavy metal solo ever
only for heavy metal
Point of Entry is easily their worst not counting the Owens era.
It can mean both these days XD
@Noah58 Download tux guitar and download the guitar pro tab.
at this moment everyone kknows that halford is gay xD?
Add Saxon and Maiden to that. It's always been that trio.
@xIronWarlordx And Dave !!!!!! How you can forgot ?
@slashandmustainerox Nope, he came out in 1998.
holy shit that dude has got a set of pipes
@02tweeks Indeed! They were moving to a more heavier sound at this point. They still did a few of the 80's hits in their set at this time too though. I think 'Turbo Lover' was a regular.. A shame they didn't film and release this tour.
as always, Glenn Tipton has a tasty solo
Rob is HHHOOOOTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
uuuuuuuuuuu perronsisimo ese pinche video
Heavy fuckin' metal!!!! Yeahhhhhh!!!!
I like Iommi's tone the best by far.
What a great song & album
Sweet - they did the shred intro.

My roommate and besti kim saw em in Memphis then. If it weren't for the tshirts and tix i would not recall a thing. Fu..ing alcohol stole another from me. Love PRieST and Kim says we had a great time....
