MASTERUDY Castillo You sure? Looks more like the better broadcast TV analog cameras of the period to me. I don't notice any film grain at all. But that's just nit picking.
***** What? 1983 had much higher audio quality than 2015. Source material is crap in 2015, and home audio reproduction is garbage. In 1983, many houses had at least a quality receiver and a decent set of loudspeakers.
BillyBob Hammer The problem is when technology got cheaper to produce. Nowadays you just need to know what to buy. In recorded music, the usual problem is no dynamics because people think compression is actually a good thing. Even with modern releases, depending on what you get, the vinyl versions haven't been touched with that modern nonsense. But that's the fault of the people that think compression is actually a good thing, the same audio could have been put on cd but they don't want it that way. :/ I believe koolaidman9922 said this is good quality for 1983 compared to less professional live videos from this time. I'd love for Metallica shows from this year to be recorded like this.
Setlist: 0:34 Heading out to the highway 4:55 Metal Gods 9:27 Breaking the law 12:31 You got another thing comin' 22:26 motorcycle :D 22:53 Hell bent for leather 27:30 Diamonds and Rust 31:08 Victim of Changes Enjoy :D
I was 17 years old when this was shot and I was hanging onto the rail at the front of the stage. The day was a total roaster...with the only shade on that field being at the front of the stage (under the lighting gantry) or in the shadow of the control booth off in the distance. The air hung heavy with the smell of dust, heat, suntan oil and pot. I had forgotten just how good some of the bands that played this show sounded live...and how vivid everything was. We all knew that Rob was gay back then, even though he wasn't "out". It didn't matter. He kicked ass then and kicks ass now. Thanks for posting this! It's an awesome memory that came flooding back in while watching it!
Larga vida al sacerdote d Judas... D lo mejor del heavy metal... Del mundo entero... Saludos a toda la banda d México y del mundo q les gusta el sacerdote... X q a un servidor.. le encanta... Desde león Guanajuato México!!!!..
This is one of the best live priest I've ever seen. Wow, top shape vocals, tight as hell bass and beat and rocking guitars...Priest at their prime! Thanks for sharing! 1: Heading out to the highway 2: Metal Gods 3: Breaking the law 4: You've got another thing coming 5: Hell bent for leather 6: Diamonds and rust 7: Victim of changes
So glad I was going to concerts back then. Besides all the scrappy 80s music, we had the best Heavy Metal concerts...Maiden, Priest, Saxon, Metallica , Ozzy, Dio,Motoelrhead all in their prime...Best time to be alive
Going to Chicago May 1 to see them at Rosemont theater Illinois and then going to Kalamazoo Michigan to see them at the event events wing center. Oh yeah baby Judas Priest forever flying in from California you got that right?
all these men that hate on this band because Rob is gay .. are in the Closet !! Who cares about the sexual choice of anyone that Rocks like Priest!!!!! or anyone else .......
dude , what's really funny is all the " manly men " who dressed like a gay biker to look not gay , an look more manly, lol, there really weren't too many people who knew back then , i certainly didn't , and i was around for it
i/m not tryin to insult bikers, just sayin it's all the guys i knew who would dress like that because they thought it made them look more like "real men", just the irony is really funny , because they didn't realise he was a london leather boy
***** (and to Warren 552011 too) Dave Holland was convicted in 2004 of indecency with a disabled lad whom he was giving drumming lessons to and was sentenced to 8 years. He was believed to have been released in 2012. He still denies the offence(s) and has said that he is preparing to write at some length to give his side of the story but the evidence was thoroughly unpleasant. Regarding Rob Halford's sexuality - that was an open secret when I got into Hard Rock/Metal in about 1982 (I'm 48 now - time flies...) and it wasn't a problem but I have to say that since then I've had heaps of problems from homosexuals as an adult and the news here in the UK is full of stories of homosexual men molesting boys in historic criminal cases dating back decades and Dave Holland is one such (he is open about his bisexuality). Its not PC to say it but many homosexual men have a thoroughly unpleasant and arrogant attitude as I can personally testify from bitter experience. I'm not suggesting of course that Rob Halford is this type of individual and I've always been an immense fan of his and the band as a whole and people's private sexual behaviour with consenting adults is just that and not an issue for most people myself included but one's view is tainted of gays for the reasons I've outlined. I'm also a fan of most types of rock and increasingly classical music as I've got older and as a Kate Bush fan and given that Rolf Harris contributed to two of her albums it was especially galling to hear of his predatory attitude towards young girls (he was sentenced to about three years - I can't remember the exact figure) but like Dave Holland his musical contributions cannot be erased from the master tapes even if this were desirable. I only became aware of the Divinyls as a backpacker around Australia in 1989 and sexy,sensual Chrissy Amphlett singing about "a fine line between pleasure and pain" - oohh!! It was sad to hear of her passing as it was of Jan Kuhnemund of my favourite all-female rock band Vixen whom I love to bits and many other rockers who have left us in recent times. Oh well, keep defending the faith people!!!
Judas Priest always sound great live. I've seen them over the last four decades and they don't disappoint. Was at this show too and man was it hot that Memorial Day weekend over thirty years ago.
I goota know brother! Was this recorded at the US Festival in San Bernardino...if so I was therf for that 3 day,Woodstock West.😊 But, was the Priest there? And, was this that recording???😊🎉👍✌️♥️🎼🎶🎵
anybody else go this show? what a day, huh? god, i miss those many great rock shows at irvine meadows, the forum, long beach, etc...life was good in so cal back in the day for rock concerts...from 1982 thru 1995 i must have gone to 100+ shows!
This was recorded in 1983.! I believe that I was there? I can't find out if it was recorded in the San Bernardino mountains?? It sure looks like it! It was the US festival in 1983. Called Woodstock West! I was there!!!! 3 days! I just can't remember if the Priest was there? And, this video Rocks Metal!!!! The Priests Rocks!!!!!!👍♥️🎼✌️😀🎉.......
Yeah, So. Cal Ricked and Rolled in those years!!!! I lived there from 78-86... I tell folks it wasn't somewhere I lived in my life ,.jt was a lifetime!!!!! Southern California Ricked in thise days!!! I miss it often 🎉😮😢😂😂😂 memories....
Yeah USCI...I saw a couple shiws there. Early eightues...INLY time I took a Limo to a show. Fiur if us ...Don Henley and Santana I believe??? But yeah the Meadows...great place to see an outdoor show!!!!👍✌️♥️🎼🎶🎶🤗😊🎉
I was there on this Sunday only. Lived in Highland CA at the time. About 13 miles away from Devore, where this all happened. I was 19 years old, They opened with Hellion / Electric eye and then right into riding on the wind and Heading out to the Highway so this isn’t exactly the full set. But thanks for posting . Order of appearance was Quiet Riot, Motley Crue, Ozzy(first show with Jake) Judas Priest, Triumph, Scorpions and Van Halen. 20 bucks per ticket. Still have two T-shirts and my ticket stub. They eventually built a concert venue on the same spot that opened under the name Blockbuster Pavilion (as in the video rental store) I saw many shows there including Ozzfests, one with Ozzy and another with Sabbath until I left CA in 2005. Good times.
Grew up in Chicago started seeing Judas Priest in 1976 sad wings of Destiny tour all the way through now currently I live in the city of Angels beautiful California going to see them in Chicago on May 1 at the Rosemont theater, invincible shield tour and going to Kalamazoo Michigan on May 4 to see them as well. Long live Judas Priest, my friend. Oh yeah, the worlds greatest metal band ever yes oh yeah.
I was at this concert at Glen Helen park in San Berdo.... Priest was incredible, but I thought the Scorpions absolutely killed it. That being said, was the best Cali concert I had ever seen... and I saw Deep Purple on their Perfect Stranger Reunion tour in Long Beach...
Damn! That's an amazing concert lineup. The only thing that would have made it better for me would have been seeing Iron Maiden when Paul Di'anno was in his prime. Bruce did some truly amazing stuff and the band was more commercially successful during his tenure, but I still prefer Paul.
Bill Mason I love many of their songs during Paul's days as front man, but I have to say that Bruce is a better singer IMO. There was a live album--Live Killers, I think--that was just awesome!
Sigh Co. Bassist I can totally respect opinions on both sides of the coin regarding Iron Maiden front men. My preference for Paul has a lot to do with the punk element the band had during his tenure. I liked the rougher edge he brought to their music and presentation. Both were great front men though, and Bruce has aged much more gracefully.

Well, that was way back in fkng 1983. Up to now I am still waiting for any other people/bands to bring around such sort of music, feelings, power and dedication! Now it's up to you each individual, after 40 years, to BREAK the ....
He's fking Rob Halford for fux sake. Age six yet inevitable, for all ov us. As long as he continues to grace every stage on Earth, he gives his all against all adversity. Give him your respect.

This is the most insane shit I've ever read. Literally any of his contemporaries are better. This is such mediocre metal that does not stand the test of time.
He's one of the top five for sure, but greatest? Come on. You didn't hear Dio or Bruce Dickinson not staying in tune. Halford misses the note multiple times during one song.
I saw JP in Vancouver 1979, Seattle 1981 and Toronto in October 1982. Absolute heavy metal brilliance, they and Van Halen were the two best bands in the world in the early '80's. Yes that's Dave Holland on drums here.
This band is the fondation of heavy metal as we know it today. Yeah, the lead singer is gay but no one cares because he kicks ass and doesn't shove his sexuality in anyones face! Who fucking cares ??!!
I saw these dudes back then on their Screaming tour and it was one of the top 3 loudest and clear concerts I've been to in my life.AC-DC is another one along with Pink Floyd.The bass was just shakin your body and every hit of the bass drum felt like you were getting smacked, it was fantastic. My ears rang for a whole day after that.
Saw this concert in a small, intimate arena. It was INTENSE. When they rolled the motorcycle out, it shook the whole building, and nobody could breathe. So we lit out lighters.
4☆20☆2024. Just excellence in synchronicity. Better live than the recorded versións. Dave Holland beating on the drums, K.K. and Glenn in unison and Rob Halford prowling on the stage hitting every note on cue and in tone. 4☆20☆2024
See children? They are really able to play the music live what they recorded on their albums! Nothing too fancy, just pure and awesome heavy metal! They are the real musicians, not the ones you are worshiping so badly these days... And no, I'm not an old fella, just someone, who love real music...
earlier today i watched a video of priest 2014 victim of changes,... the quality sucked, but if you listen, you can still hear rob hitting some of those notes!!....throw bieber in a mosh pit!!
Warren552011 Thanks! And yes, I was not meant Judas Priest used autotune. They are just talented musicians, thats what they did/do for a living. These days, no matter if you have no talent, but you have protection, you can become a wealthy man. But it is just because of the stupidity of people, that helps these musicians.
1. Heading Out To The Highway 2. Metal Gods 3. Breaking The Law 4. You've Got Another Thing Comin' 5. Hell Bent For Leather 6. Diamonds And Rust 7. Victim of changes this is metal perfection.. down the hats to Metal Gods!!!
Sounds and musicians from late 60's through mid 80's will never be outdone. So much talent on the road full time - man did they ever learn their chops! And the cream just kept rising. Keep trying youngsters the bar has been set VERY high!
Amazing quality for a video from over 30 years ago. This band just rocked it hard, would love to have a time machine and go to this show :) Because you can't see anything like this ion 2015 anymore.
I was there on Heavy Metal Sunday, Memorial Day Weekend 1983. Man I was 17 years old at the time, where does the time go? It was a GREAT experience to have been at the "US" Festival '83. ROCK ON!!!!
This not the full show. The complete setlist is this: The Hellion Electric Eye Riding on the Wind Heading Out to the Highway Metal Gods Breaking the Law Diamonds & Rust (Joan Baez cover) Victim of Changes Living After Midnight The Green Manalishi (With the Two Pronged Crown) (Fleetwood Mac cover) Screaming for Vengeance You've Got Another Thing Comin' Hell Bent for Leather
They should've played later in the day, with the Scorpions. Moved VanHalen out of the headliner spot, made Judas Priest and The Scorpions closing acts. Now, it's hotter than hell, the sun is in the eyes of the crowd. Good time for the VanHalen clown show. Let the bands that came to play on the highest level have the better night spots!
I agree, VH was wasted by the time they finally hit the stage and people were filing out in a hurry. The Scorps, Priest and Triumph all blew Van Halen away.
marshjvm I saw VH in my hometown, David Lee Roth only sang 1/2 the lyrics & not always in synch with the music. That's why I will always give credit to bands that put effort into their live show. Queen at Live Aid, another band that showed up to deliver!
This was just after I graduated high school. I lived in the greatest era of music.
Me too
Lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllklllllllllllllllllkllllkllllllllllll mm LL mlml❤@@pameladiez4933
Me too! 1982!!
This is actually great quality for 1983
Good point!

No truer words ever spoken. For the ladies. ❤🔥
Rob Halford can be whatever he wants man...his vocals have turned him into a legend...Judas is fucking awesome
I was 17 years old when this was shot and I was hanging onto the rail at the front of the stage.

K.K. and Tipton are such a great guitar duo.
all these men that hate on this band because Rob is gay .. are in the Closet !! Who cares about the sexual choice of anyone that Rocks like Priest!!!!! or anyone else .......
+Warren552011. Yeah most of the metal bands in the 80s wore tons of leather and spikes as did the fans.
Warren552011 Rob is awesome. That's all.
dude , what's really funny is all the " manly men " who dressed like a gay biker to look not gay , an look more manly, lol, there really weren't too many people who knew back then , i certainly didn't , and i was around for it

The greatest voice ever...
Saw them in Providence in the 80’s. Unbelievable show!
Awesome group I remember in 1983, I was 17
I was at this concert at Glen Helen park in San Berdo.... Priest was incredible, but I thought the Scorpions absolutely killed it. That being said, was the best Cali concert I had ever seen... and I saw Deep Purple on their Perfect Stranger Reunion tour in Long Beach...
How do you know a band is good? THEY SOUND GREAT LIVE!
most amazingt thing i have ever watched
Judah Priest a awesome group I remember in 1983, when I was 17.
My favorite metal band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best Heavy Metal singers: Rob Halford, Bruce Dickinson, Ronnie James Dio.
I SAW IRON MAIDEN OPEN FOR JUDAS PRIEST IN 1982, MAIDENS BEAST TOUR AND PRIESTS VENGEANCE TOUR...FANTASTIC SHOW.
two of my favorite bands, you could say I'm a bit jealous!
Damn! That's an amazing concert lineup. The only thing that would have made it better for me would have been seeing Iron Maiden when Paul Di'anno was in his prime. Bruce did some truly amazing stuff and the band was more commercially successful during his tenure, but I still prefer Paul.
Bill Mason
I love many of their songs during Paul's days as front man, but I have to say that Bruce is a better singer IMO. There was a live album--Live Killers, I think--that was just awesome!
Sigh Co. Bassist Beast over Hammersmith, the live album with Bruce is amazing!
Sigh Co. Bassist I can totally respect opinions on both sides of the coin regarding Iron Maiden front men. My preference for Paul has a lot to do with the punk element the band had during his tenure. I liked the rougher edge he brought to their music and presentation. Both were great front men though, and Bruce has aged much more gracefully.
Breaking the law forever!!! Very best live video of Judas Preist! \m/
It was an epic day.
The greatest collection of '80s heavy metal bands ever assembled, outside of Castle Donnington's Monsters of Rock!

Well, that was way back in fkng 1983.
Up to now I am still waiting for any other people/bands to bring around such sort of music, feelings, power and dedication!
Now it's up to you each individual, after 40 years, to BREAK the ....
No need quite yet, JP still killin' in 2024!
Rob Halford - One and Only...THE BEST OF THE BESTS..!!!
Saw them 3x through the 80s and 90s best live metal show ever no else close to them
He's fking Rob Halford for fux sake. Age six yet inevitable, for all ov us. As long as he continues to grace every stage on Earth, he gives his all against all adversity. Give him your respect.
Это величайшая группа всех времен!
Priest's sound and performance is so good it's almost like a music video. Superb band.
there will never be another band that can out rock the priest!.

Greatest singer in metal history
THAT'S WHAT EVERYONE KNOWS, HALFORD IS THE BEST SINGER PERIOD.
Tim "the ripper" Owen is far away better.
This is the most insane shit I've ever read. Literally any of his contemporaries are better. This is such mediocre metal that does not stand the test of time.
He's one of the top five for sure, but greatest? Come on. You didn't hear Dio or Bruce Dickinson not staying in tune. Halford misses the note multiple times during one song.
@MikkoVille true but to be fair, you don't go to a concert to see them play perfectly lol
I saw JP in Vancouver 1979, Seattle 1981 and Toronto in October 1982. Absolute heavy metal brilliance, they and Van Halen were the two best bands in the world in the early '80's. Yes that's Dave Holland on drums here.
Get em' Glenn.
Melhor época do metal sem dúvida nenhuma
This band is the fondation of heavy metal as we know it today. Yeah, the lead singer is gay but no one cares because he kicks ass and doesn't shove his sexuality in anyones face! Who fucking cares ??!!
fred estire Exacltty! Same with Freddy Mercury of Queen. If you Rock.....you rock! No one freakin cares about who you love as long as you don't care.
Can't stop watching this....effing epic
ALL BOW TO JUDAS PRIEST THEN AND NOW.
met Rob Halford in '91 while they were doing the Painkiller tour.... damn nice guy. He even signed my cast ( had a broken hand at the time ).
Judas Priest is Heavy Metal. Everyone else is a copy =)
gay metal
***** vaya gusano jajajajaja
Just appreciate Judas Priest as one of the best /masters of heavy metal and not discussing any members private life outside music.
I saw these dudes back then on their Screaming tour and it was one of the top 3 loudest and clear concerts I've been to in my life.AC-DC is another one along with Pink Floyd.The bass was just shakin your body and every hit of the bass drum felt like you were getting smacked, it was fantastic. My ears rang for a whole day after that.
If you have a problem with it then why in the fuck would you #1 the comment Al or whatever the hell your name is???

Mmmmmm!
It was an awesome concert for sure Funk!!
Saw this concert in a small, intimate arena. It was INTENSE. When they rolled the motorcycle out, it shook the whole building, and nobody could breathe. So we lit out lighters.
4☆20☆2024. Just excellence in synchronicity. Better live than the recorded versións. Dave Holland beating on the drums, K.K. and Glenn in unison and Rob Halford prowling on the stage hitting every note on cue and in tone. 4☆20☆2024
최고의 밴드
Probably the best year for rock IMO.
18 and was loving it.
So damn good.
Wow that is A LOT of people!!
See children? They are really able to play the music live what they recorded on their albums! Nothing too fancy, just pure and awesome heavy metal! They are the real musicians, not the ones you are worshiping so badly these days... And no, I'm not an old fella, just someone, who love real music...
Repeat after me children: fuck autotune!!
Even I could be a "good" singer with autotune...
Ferenczi László
so could my dog...lol
earlier today i watched a video of priest 2014 victim of changes,... the quality sucked, but if you listen, you can still hear rob hitting some of those notes!!....throw bieber in a mosh pit!!
Warren552011 Thanks! And yes, I was not meant Judas Priest used autotune. They are just talented musicians, thats what they did/do for a living. These days, no matter if you have no talent, but you have protection, you can become a wealthy man. But it is just because of the stupidity of people, that helps these musicians.
I was there.
It was one hell of a party!!
I would love to have a band like this!!
That was back in my good days, brings fond memories!
SO glad they grabbed Scott Travis from Racer X !!!! Judas got better & better as time rolled on.

Sounds and musicians from late 60's through mid 80's will never be outdone. So much talent on the road full time - man did they ever learn their chops! And the cream just kept rising. Keep trying youngsters the bar has been set VERY high!
What a crowd. They filled up the whole valley. Great performance. The high water mark of heavy metal.
Very Nice Judas Priest Forever!!
Amazing quality for a video from over 30 years ago. This band just rocked it hard, would love to have a time machine and go to this show :) Because you can't see anything like this ion 2015 anymore.
Cool. I was at this concert festival. I was in the Marines at the time. I also went to the 82, US festival. From Sioux City,Ia.
I fucking LOVE THIS!!!! I LOVE PRIEST!!!I I am An 80s Girl and this MAKES ME HAPPY TO Groove AGAIN LIKE I WAS A TEENAGER .....
EPIC!
I was there at The "US" Festival '83 on Heavy Metal Sunday 32 years ago :) ROCK ON!!!!!!!
MrMegaFredZeppelin Damn it! I was sperm back then! I gota travel back in time to 1967 and tell my dad to get to work.
MrMegaFredZeppelin I was there too! I just turned 21! Best concert ever!
Killer video! Excellent quality!
23:00 when the motorcycle comes out is the best. Awesome gig, Priest at their best.

I was there on Heavy Metal Sunday, Memorial Day Weekend 1983. Man I was 17 years old at the time, where does the time go? It was a GREAT experience to have been at the "US" Festival '83. ROCK ON!!!!
Woah...just came from the Crue performance on that day to this video...
Its like night and day, Priest were already so matured
Oh man, you nailed it with that comment!
DukeDolman for me ,never
Espetacular Halford é o melhor vocal do Heavy Metal junto c Ronnie James Dio !
I remember living with these guys. Next door we were neighbors. ❤Judas priest 2:58

They should've played later in the day, with the Scorpions. Moved VanHalen out of the headliner spot, made Judas Priest and The Scorpions closing acts. Now, it's hotter than hell, the sun is in the eyes of the crowd. Good time for the VanHalen clown show. Let the bands that came to play on the highest level have the better night spots!
Absolutely! Give VH their million and put em' on during the day.
AC DC woulda been a better headliner
I agree, VH was wasted by the time they finally hit the stage and people were filing out in a hurry. The Scorps, Priest and Triumph all blew Van Halen away.
marshjvm I saw VH in my hometown, David Lee Roth only sang 1/2 the lyrics & not always in synch with the music. That's why I will always give credit to bands that put effort into their live show. Queen at Live Aid, another band that showed up to deliver!
they have such a killer fucking sound those guitar and bass are perfect.man this is awesome
Quality of this recording is incredible
Judas priest seen them 5 times. My band is the priest
press 3 over and over.
9 is even better !
***** cmon, man. better than halford doing a face? haha
marfa
jesus, i had no idea you could even do that. thanks, mate.
thanks for the tip. found that if you hit the other numbers, they are percentages of the video (i.e. 4 = 40%). Zero starts it over.
The Best❤❤ best live petformance ever.. Halford is on Fire, those guitars, that bassist doesn't stop, the drums OUTSTANDING! Metal God's...
I'm hearing right now, From Merida- Venezuela 😮😮Amazing 😊😊😊
