Imagine having a conversation with Rob Halford. This is the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while. What a show.
I was thinking the same thing! I don’t if I could hold it together!
@@Panzersonor1967I'd be so nervous I would forget all the questions I was going to ask.
@@Panzersonor1967 Lol I saw him walking around by this venue entrance in Dallas 2019. Couldn't even say "hey Rob" or something. I was in shock. Couldn't move or talk.
Pete is the man. All hail the metal god!
Holy shittin cool
*OH MY GOD YOU GOT ROB HALFORD ON THE SHOW?!*
Now you know you're reached the top.
Edit: Also Pete I just want to say that you did a terrific job interviewing Rob. Respect for asking about KK, I think a lot of interviewers would have avoided that one. The whole thing felt very natural. Great job once again!
Pete is really good
He also did a great job on his Matt Barlow interview. Another outstanding metal vocalist I implore you check out
Pete Pardo interviews > 10 000 Rolling Stone Magazine articles
The more articles Rolling Stone runs, the worse they get. Mainstream fratboy garbage.
Not exactly a high bar, but you're right haha.
Halford is such a joy to listen to. Down to earth, humble, and a ray of positivity.
And that accent!!!! (I grew up 6 miles from Rob, so it's always great to hear a fellow Yam Yam done good.)
Yeah, and the only guy in Priest whose pretty much just like Rob personality wise and as a human bein' is his former bandmate K.K. Downing, they both have the same spirit and nature to 'em.
@@emdiar6588 Brummies!
and remember too, he's a homosexual They can be cool sometimes
I guess 40 years ago Pete would have never ever thought that he would be able to do an interview with one of his heroes. How surreal must that be.
And what a fine job he did!
Man Pete. That's major having Rob on. The Metal God!
Just want to point out how stellar of an interviewer Pete is.
Agreed, he just let Rob speak. Mark of a great interviewer.
Pete did it again!
Dude... I can't believe my eyes
I couldn't believe it either. No disrespect to Pete's other guests (I remember jaw dropping when Andy Powell came on), but this... this is something else.
Same😂
Rob announcing that 8 disc version of Nostradamus dedicated to Pete and Chris was the best bit ;)
When did he mention that?
@@paulhudson563 lol. He never mentioned it, but search for Judas Priest albums ranked, and you'll see why.
Looked at comments. I knew this was a good joke but I was hoping there was a .0001 chance Rob knew Pete on that level.
@@gwyld I don’t want to say comment sections are full of literal and simple but....
@@gwyld ahh 🤦 thanks
There's no way you got to interview the metal god HIMSELF! That just shows how much talent you have as an interviewer! You deserve this pete, you really do... keep the great work!
Dude works so hard to make this channel good, I'm glad it's starting to pay off with big gets like this... this is what it's all about. I love all these regular joes (that run fucking awesome YT channels) that are now able to get these sorts of interviews, because the big shots all have laptops with cams, etc. now. So cool! Going directly to the source, and bypassing all the BS.
Rob's voice was the original siren sound that made me a Heavy Metalhead!! 😎🤘🤘
Rob Halford IS the METAL GOD of the METAL TRINITY: Sad Wings, Sin After Sin & Stained Class!
I would choose Stained Class, Unleashed in the East and Painkiller, what an amazing band! But all the other albums you mentioned are brilliant, too! And I actually like Firepower a lot as well!
Stained Class> Screaming for Vengeance> Defenders of the Faith.
And I would add that this trinity of the 70s is three CONSECUTIVE albums. It's my favorite.too.
And Priest being exceptionnal, they made another Holy Metal trinity in the 80s. British Steel, Screaming for vemgeance and Painliller.
How many bands can top that?
@Call me however tu préfères, Amigo. there is no wrong answer. There is so many great albums to chose from. You're choice is great too.
The difference is that they are not consecutive vs the 76, 77,78 first trinity. 🤘🤘🤘
Holy shit Pete, this is huge. Great interview with Rob, the greatest metal voice of our lifetime. I know several Priest fans who have already read his book and all say it’s outstanding.
For me it's Bruce..you know who I mean;) Great interview here though!
I love that Pete doesn’t pretend he’s a journalist that won’t wear your shirt and is willing to talk book first to secure a big guest.
I can’t Believe you’re talking to the metal God himself what a lucky man I wish I could talk to rob Hanford every day of my life
I'd rather talk to rob halford.
Dont know the other fella.
Rob Halford is so lucky that Pete Pardo accepted to interview him
Rob's voice was absolutely outstanding on Unleashed in the East. Especially for a live album! He paved the way for Bruce Dickinson and many others from the 80's.
Not taking anything away from either Priest, Halford or Unleashed in the East, an album I love dearly and still give regular spins, but I seem to recall Rob Halford himself has confirmed that the actual concert vocals were not upto scratch and therefore redone. Sorry. No disrespect implied to anyone. Rock on.
@@bernardmaasdijk734 yes he says it in the book
@@bernardmaasdijk734 I didn't know that.
@@bernardmaasdijk734 Aye as I read in the book, he had a flu at that time so he dubbed it over in production. I don't mind that though, as a live album should make you feel like your there.
@@jmagowan12 Agreed. And Unleashed in the East is a better album for it. As far as I'm concerned the same goes for the addition of live-in-the-studio tracks Mother Mary and This Kids on UFO's Strangers in the Night: the album is better with those studio tracks.
Oh my fucking gracious God you're really talking with Rob Halford you THE MAN Pete!
HOLLLYYYY FUCK MF GOT ROB HALFORD ON THE SHOW. HOLY SHIT PETE YOU ARE THE FUCKING GOD
as a long time of your channel, i’m extremely proud and HAPPY FOR YOU PETE! you’re fucking killing it man!!! you deserve this!
Great job, Pete! You' ve made it! Deservely so. And I bet that the 5 assholes that gave a thumb down will not sleep at all tonight - jealousy is a bitch!!
This is crazy!! You had the metal god himself on your channel! Wow dude. Definitely won
SOT has officially hit the big time!!! Way to go Pete!!!
Saw Priest 9-22-1979 in Chicago. It was awesome. Better the main show I went to see. I cannot believe how it has been. I was 13 at the time and now I am 54 and still love them to death. Rob Halford is the best singer in my opinion. The whole band is superb. Ian Hill...superb bass player. Nobody ever talks about him, but he is really good. Green Manalishi was the first song that got me interested.I wanted to see Kiss and it said Judas Priest was the warm up band and I was more excited about that. Kiss was entertaining, but it was all one big rumble of noise where Priest was clear and awesome:) Thank you Rob for all the great years of your talent:)
What a guy so full of optimism, a true great who has been there bought the t shirt and lived to tell the tale. Thank you so much Pete words can not express. Rob Halford makes me proud to be from the Black Country
What is it about metal and the midlands?
Astonishing how many top shelf bands are from there.
Halford is ALL class. A musical legend and a hell of a guy.
Pete, I very much appreciate that all your interviews are raw, unedited, long form, and not broken up into multiple ‘clips’ videos. Thank you!
I cheated and got it as an audiobook and I am so happy that Rob is reading himself. Makes it feel extra special. Love it
Rob has always came across as a very genuine guy. I respect that and this interview was great. Thank you for this
Oh my goodness. This was totally unexpected but absolutely epic and awesome to have the Metal God himself on the show. 🤟. And I already picked up a copy of Confess myself and is definitely worth the read, an excellent autobiography.
Edit: Posted this during the first few seconds of the interview, but after finishing it, Pete, you did a fantastic job, both on the question side, and even more so on just letting Rob talk and answer those questions without interrupting or cutting him off. You’d be hard pressed to find many interviews nowadays where the person being interviewed isn’t allowed to speak two sentences before being cut off. Great job Pete
Enjoyed this interview, I will admit I'm not a fan of judas priest but he comes across as a nice down to earth guy.
This is such a big thing for your channel, Pete!! Interviewing the Leather wearing Metal God himself!!!!
Rob is such a cool nice down to earth guy.
So is Pete!
I found it refreshing and impressive how Rob showed real class avoiding the drama surrounding KK's departure..I have always respected him throughout the entire beginnings and evolution of the Metal Gods
PETE&THE METAL GOD!! DOES NOT GET BETTER THAN THAT! OUTSTANDING INTERVIEW!
Seeing Judas Priest tomorrow in Birmingham watching this great interview again in advance!
Fantastic interview!! I can't wait to hear some brand new Judas Priest tunes.
Rob is a great Human Being, a gentleman and is work with Judas Priest is Amazing ...to me he is always been like the Freddie Mercury of Heavy Metal, capable to change his voce to suit every type or style of song..he is and always will be a legend. Congrats Pete, great Interview. Cheers from Italy👋🎸💥
Wether or not Rob knows it he helped alot of us young gay boys feel good about who and all the struggles gone thru back in the day
LEGEND!!!!!!
Holy crap!!! My favorite TH-cam dude and my favorite metal singer🤘way to go Pete🤘
I preordered the book and got it on the date of release.
Day and half later, I’d read it and loved it. There’s a genuine humanness that comes across in his book and his life is stripped down to bare bones, and I feel like I know him as a person and appreciate what he’s accomplished even more now.
Love priest, love Halford
Rock on 🤘
Pete, you NEVER disappoint! A great interview with the Metal God himself.
Wow! Omg! Pete - You really knocked this one out of the park. I have watched a ton of Rob Halford zooms (my favorite metal vocalist of all time besides Dio rip) and I’ve never seen Rob more relaxed, chill and casual. Just a casual conversation - you at your interviewing best. So proud of you. You rock! This was an excellent and intimate and casual conversation. I loved it. I just loved it ! Awesome work Pete! Congratulations!
Watching this interview a few years later, thank goodness Judas Priest were able to do their 50th anniversary tour!
Congrats Pete on interviewing such a legend.
Great job Pete...you are a super respectful interviewer.
Rob looks GOOD!
Love that he truly is, "Down To Earth", kind of guy. Excellent to hear this.
Thanks for both!
Wow!! This Rob Halford interview was a surprise!! Glad Rob Halford has a book out!!🎼🎤🎸🎵🥁
if only all gods were as humble and down-to-earth as Rob Halford. i honestly haven't met a single person from my generation who became a Priest fan at one point and who isn't still a Priest fan - at least on some level - that says a LOT right there. 'Screaming...' may have been my initial point o' entry (not everything made it to my rural surroundings...), but i quickly bought up all the prior efforts and they still rank among my favorite Priest albums - and still going strong today !
Thanks for providing us with this really enjoyable interview with Rob Halford. Pete, you are a fantastic interviewer. You listen, and it's quite apparent that you are trusted by your guests. I've watched most of your interviews...Halford, Steve Hackett, Steve Morse, Simon Phillips, Carmen Appice, Derek Shulman, Neal Morse, Derek Sherinian, Alex Skolnick, Kim Simmonds, Andy Powell, Chris Caffery, and Frank Marino...and you really put these musicians at ease so that they feel compelled to share stuff with us freely. It's obvious you do your homework before the interviews, which is much appreciated by all concerned (guests and followers.) You really have a gift as an interviewer.
thank you so much!
How the hell did you pull this one off Pete! Always amazed at the quality of your guests
It's easy when there promoting a book .
Pete!!!! You sir, are the man for making this one happen!!! Thank you Rob!!!
The Metal God himself...! I started watching this show around march and you've been raising the bar ever since. ..Very impressive. Thank you.
Holy crap Pete!! Rob Halford?!!
Congrats man...it's nice to see your channel continue to grow! Well deserved!!
Can’t believe I missed this. I have been a fan of this channel since I found it about a month after the pandemic. Great interview.
Love judas priest love Rob Halford wish I could interview him great job pete
Great interview,had to stop at in and hear what the Metal God had to say,as a lifelong Priest fan so happy to see that he is doing well, love you Rob🤘
comes across like a really genuine, compassionate human being, the type of person youd want in your life
What a fantastic interview rob halford fucking love you man. Pete you’re the man awesome 👏
First saw Priest at the Birmingham Odeon in 1979 Killing Machine tour, home gig fantastic!!!! Loved them ever since
What a Christmas gift, Rob on the SoT channel!
Nice one Pete, thanks very much Rob. Great to see Rob looking so well.
Love the fact that he still has his Walsall dialect!
Pete thank you for the interview, and the way you phrased that question about K.K. was such a gentle and professional manner we rarely see these days in interviews... mad respect!!!
Can't wait to see a follow-up to Firepower, it's such a relief that Rob talks about a next album with such conviction...
I am really looking forward to the follow up album to Firepower big time. I love Angel Of Retribution, some of Nostradamus, and about half of Redeemer Of Souls alot, but Firepower in my opinion is the best album Judas Priest has done since Painkiller. I could not believe how amazing it was when I first listened to it. Most bands that have had a very long career just put out average albums compared to what they did in their young days.
Great interview Pete. You did a great job! Rob's title "Confess" shows how honest he is!
Congrats on landing the Metal God himself, Pete. An absolute LEGEND! Just started reading his book.
This is so awesome. Thank you rob. Thank you Pete.
50th Anniversary tour ?! Rob doesn't even come close to looking 50 . What super nice man . Great interview Pete, I enjoyed it 👍👍🙂
That's cuz he's 69.
@@independenceltd. 69 still divine an fine as wine
Had the chance to meet Rob when he was transferring flights in Burbank, Ca
even though he was in a rush he still took a few moments to speak to a starstruck fan like me.
Could not have been a nicer/cooler guy.
Just amazing. Not only -of course- Mr. Metal God but also the most sympatic Pete.
This channel is awesome! Thanks Pete, you are the best. Having Rob Halford on is such a joy to watch. Keep up the good work.
Extremely impressive that you got the opportunity to talk to Rob Halford....He's my absolute favorite Metal vocalist and Priest being my most favorite metal band ever. Instantly became a fan of Priest in 1978...looking forward to their next album! God bless you Rob Halford the metal messiah!
Love Rob is the man of leather, he and AC/DC rule my teens in the 80’s, miss the band. God bless Pete ur the man
Great interview! Many interviewers seem to talk over the person they are interviewing, you didn't do that, you did a great job letting Rob make his points.
Let's be formal, for the sake of the moment (even 3 years ago...) - Excellent interview with someone who must be on the 5-shortest list of voices who shaped that genre of Popular Music people call Heavy Metal. Informality, Sincerity and Truthfulness are all attributes which could never go under the radar here. This, i guess, could never happen on TV. Congratulations , Peter and S.o.T.
Great to have Rob on the show Pete!! I'm ~ We're lucky to have several great Rock 'N' Roll greats that choose to live here in are beautiful Valley ~ Phoenix!!
I can't believe you have interviewed my hero of my childhood and today, Pete!
Had edit this message due to not being native English speaking. Additional message, wow, Rob Halford is such an inspiration to us all. I bought his book and read it throughout. What an incredible human being and talent Rob is.
Thank you Rob and Pete for this interview.
What a normal guy. Bless you Rob
What a great interview, Pete. A half hour well spent.
That's Rob and his partner up above his left shoulder in the pictures. I'm so happy he is out to the public and is in a happy relationship. Long live Metal God!
What a scoop! Nice job Pete!
Interesting that Rob felt that the time was right for a biography when 20 year old pop stars are already putting out biographies. On that basis Rob’s biography should be a series of books.
Rob!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘. Been a fan for almost 40 years, so cool! Amazing interview Pete. Thank you!!!
As a massive AC/DC fan too, SOOOO cool to hear Rob speak so highly of them too. 👍👍👍
Great get, Pete! Rob's good people.
I had the honor to meet Rob and get a picture and autographs. It was the tour for the first Fight album in Pittsburgh PA.
What a privilege to talk with Metal God himself
Pete, huge kudos for having Rob Hanford on the show. You did a great job with the interview or chat - however you want to think of it. I have tremendous personal respect from many parts of his personal journey and now will have to read the book based on the two of you talking about it. Great work, Pete. I know you are a huge long-time fan of Rob and Priest. Hope you had as much or more fun doing it as we had watching.
Great job Pete. I love how you let Rob talk and ask such pointed but respectful questions. You have great interviewing skills. Rob was polite and honest as always. Just a charming man who loves his fans.
Right on Pete. You really raised the bar with this show. Thank you and Halford.
You got the Rob Halford interview? Congratulations!
What an absolutley fantastic interview!
I noticed the USS MILIUS cap in the background of Rob’s video. That was my first ship I served on in the Navy, I’d like to know when he visited. I was there from February ‘00 to Sep ‘03 and I never saw him then so it had to be after I left. I’m huge Priest fan and everything else he has done or been a part of. The closest I’ve been to a Priest show was a cover band in San Diego, which was damn good. And when I was on MILIUS, the biggest star we got when visiting Hong Kong was Jackie Chan and the privilege to meet him was awesome. Anyways, Pete thanks for this and all you do
Damn...You scored a direct hit with this interview. Congrats Pete!
Rob seems so nice, and so calm. This video made me really happy! 😊
SoT with a mention on Blabbermouth. 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Amazing! Pete, you have scaled the absolute peak of the Metal Mountain! How's the weather up there on Metal Everest dude? Great interview by all accounts. Don't ever stop Pete!
Great interview Pete ...... letting the guest talk with no pressure, no stupid questions & no interruptions. You had to feel goosebumps during it. Like being front row; Rob's blood, sweat, voice & energy making contact with your soul.
I've told my kids that I want Rob's book for Christmas. Thanks!
This was one hell of a pull Pete. Good for you!
That interview made me feel so optimistic about the future.
We are going to get our live metal back!!!
Great interview Pete. You're the best man.
Gonna crank some Priest right now...........
Wow!!The Metal God himself...the greatest achievement mr. Pardo!Judas Priest is my all time beloved band!
Seen that man 6 times myself. great get Pete. Screaming 4 Vengeance..83’ phenomenal stuff.
