You all shocked me with "Painkiller" by Judas Priest last time. Now digging into one of their most popular songs, "Victim Of Changes" not only showcases Rob Halford's amazing talent, but it lays the foundation for why this band has been performing for five decades!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Judas Priest for the second time, performing "Victim of Changes” live at the US Festival, Glen Helen Park, California in 1983.

I was there. It was very hot. The previous November at the Cow Palace in San Francisco for the Vengeance tour (1982) Rob Halford had promised us that Judas Priest will be there and he invited us to join them. Judging by the size of the crowd, I'd say we all took the band up on this invitation. The size of the crowd for the Cow Palace concert was too big, also: It was MOSTLY outside the arena, it had caused 10 hours of absolute gridlock for the entire bay area. On the Oakland bay bridge - people were barbecuing, jamming tunes, tossing a frisbee around on the bridge. In that era: a Judas Priest concert would flood beyond the perimeter of ANY venue in the world. If it could pack 12 million in: 45 million would show up. It just didn't matter. This band had fans. NOBODY could ever dislike them some Priest.

I met Rob at a record store in San Diego - he was dressed in fairly normal clothes and having a chat with my boss. I didn't recognize him at first. My boss called me over and said, "Hey Daniel, come meet my friend Rob." So I went over and said hello and shook his hand. He complimented me on my Suicidal Tendencies hat. I mentioned the time I saw Suicidal open for Metallica at a racetrack in Houston. Rob says, in his accent, "It was bloody hot that day!" I was all, "Yeah, it was... wait...." And it all went blurry for a second when I realized who I was talking to. I told him that his band Fight had surprised the hell out of me and my friends - we were expecting some Priest-meets-grunge mess, but they were tight and really won the crowd over. He was really happy to hear that and we talked for a good half-hour about all kinds of music. What a laid-back, interesting dude.

“Whiskey woman don’t you know that you are driving me INSAAAAAAANE!” This is a classic from ‘76, and is essential metal. While Halford was going through some insane substance abuse that may have led to improper live vocal technique, this beast of a man still put out THIS kind of performance! Just wow. He still has a powerful multifaceted range 50 years into his career, which is mind boggling. Halford, Dio, Dickinson are the big three tenors of heavy metal for a reason. They’re unstoppable! Hail THE METAL GOD! And HORNS UP!

I grew up in the 90s listening to the grunge bands of that era but liking the "old" metal bands better, Metallica, Slayer, Maiden. Still like metal in all its forms, even the extreme ones. but I tried to find out how it all started and Sad Wings of Destiny - for me -seems to be one of the first more "modern" metal albums. Sin after Sin is totally insane, clearly ahead of its time. But this song is pure heavy metal, from 1976! I am quite sure that Priest, together with Sabbath shaped every other metal band to this day. It must have felt out of time listening to this in 1976...Of course there were Dio, Samson, UFO and others but they were still more rooted in rock and roll and this was like a new dimension...

Yeah. Before the Dawn, Epitaph, and Last Rose of Summer are likely Halford's healthiest vocals. They show a glimpse of his full voice in a healthy light. It's a nice light lyric instrument that's clearly strong as an ox. Halford made a comment after he left Priest that if he had to do it all over again, he would have sung opera, like Pavarotti.... though clearly he meant Bjorling 'cause he wanted to be taken seriously.

I'd rather have the studio version here. Anyway, one of the best live bands ever. You can tell who's been there when they talk about it, put it that way.

This was the second time I saw priest and never missed a tour until marriage kabashed that in 2000s. I will always believe there were none better than rob the closest in my opinion is Robert plant. They wail with heart and soul. Impeccable. I just turned 68 and listen to and sing along with priest to this day because once you've got it in your blood there's no ignoring it.

One amazing thing about this generation - Rob, Dio, Freddie... - is that they were very intuitive. Those guys have rare instruments, with a lot of power, range and texture, and no restraints, they simply tried many things and oponned rock to a whole new range of possibilities. Plant, Gillan and Daltrey were amazing, but much grounded on blues. Those guys - Rob, Dio and Freddie - were risk takers and committed to vocal creativity like McCartney. This, per se, is something to value. Mike Patton and Serj Tankian kept that tradition. Some of them sang out of tune sometimes, but this is a small price to pay in the face of that much authenticity and innovation.

Rob Halford is one of the most genuinely nice guys in metal. In 1986 I went to a local rock bar on a Wednesday night, which was a slow night. (I live in Phx, as did/does Rob) I knew a girl who cut all the local bands hair, and she was hanging out with Rob and KK at another table. (and local bands Surgical Steel, a Priest cover band, and ICON) I asked if she’d get me an autograph from Rob. Couple minutes later a cocktail napkin is tossed in front of me with an autograph, as I turned to say thanks, there stood Rob Halford himself! He asked if I wanted to come hang out at his table. Who would say no? So I slid in the booth next to Rob, KK across the table from me with one of the guys from ICON. Rob bought my drinks all night. He had regular conversation with me like he’d known me his whole life. That was my greatest brush with metal , and I’ve had many beers with rock stars in the circles I ran in back then. No one in the bands that I’ve met was as cordial as Rob Halford. What an era to be 19. (I was last year to drink at 19 in AZ) I hope to cross paths with him again here in Phx someday to pay him back My coffee cup even says “Metal God” on it. Rob Halford was drinking from it on an interview once and my GF tracked one down for me for My bday. lol

I saw Judas Priest a few weeks ago, and Rob still has it, BIG time!! I was amazed and at the end of their last encore song, I was overcome with emotion, and literally brought to tears of joy. A lot of that was due to that being my first live concert in over 2 years, but also how good they were, and some of the deep cuts they played, that I had never seen them play live in the almost 40 years of seeing them on pretty much every tour since 1984's Defenders Of The Faith. Rob is 70 years old, by the way, and still blows most of the younger Metal singers out of the water. If you're interested in more Priest, I highly recommend Screaming For Vengeance, Freewheel Burning, Riding On The Wind, Exciter, Stained Class, The Sentinel.

He was friendly and easy to talk to. We talked about being musicians, playing live, ... When he walked in he said "Hi, I'm Rob Halford, the Metal God" in a half joking way with a smile. I also remember that he wanted to talk longer but someone from management was annoyed and passed by several times to remind Rob that he had something scheduled.

Your analysis seems spot on ... my first concert (ever) was the '82 Screaming for Vengance tour (six months before this (legendary) concert) ... Rob has never had a singers voice (like Dio or Ian Gillan) but the guitars and the vocals by Judas Priest are expressing intensity and force combined with motion and creativity. The band only exit together - they fuse together in their music. Whenever they were asked how they invented British Heavy Metal, they responded like in this Guardian interview (2010): "When we were kids walking to school," says Halford, "we'd walk past these metal foundries and see the molten metal coming out of the big vats. We were literally breathing in the fumes from these metal works, breathing in metal before heavy metal had even been invented. I'd be in school trying to do English literature and the classroom would be shaking because of the machinery." - I guess that says it all.

He'll show you another side of his singing every few songs, sometimes every song (edit: sometimes multiple times per song). The same goes for Priest. Incredibly versatile. You've barely scratched the surface ;)

It's really worthwhile to listen to the original studio version to get the full effect of this song. Being live, Rob actually limited his range a little here.

While l understand what you're saying about a polished studio version, it also represents a snapshot in time in when they cut it. Many artists say that songs are dynamic and always changing with time, sort of like language. So in that light, seeing live song performance is vitally important also. Further, many song elements often don't make a final studio cut for whatever reason the choice was when cut. Live performance can often allow fuller, fleshed out renditions. Even further, seeing the facial expressions and body motions, the "theatrics" involved in making the song, lend a lot to the overall experience. This is no exception, seeing Rob sing and dance adds extra emphasis to the vocals you wouldn't get from an audio only play, even if every note choice and embellishment in the live isn't the exact same as the one time snapshot of the studio version. Just my opinion is all.

@@kevinkesterson1806 Both versions are valid. Live for his performance and presence, but the studio version is more focused on the vocal performance. As to extended versions, I think of it like movies. When watching the extended director's cut of a movie, I often come to the conclusion that the reason the restored parts were edited out in the original cut was because it doesn't really add anything. If Elizabeth wants a full appreciation of what Halford is capable of as a vocalist, I think hearing the studio version would be time well spent.

Victim of Changes not only showcases Rob Halford's incredible vocal range, but is a self-referential metaphor as the same song is constantly changing as the minutes go by. Rob can not only raise his voice to incredible levels but also vocalize in those tones, combining falsetto and vibrato in a deeply emotional and intense performance. That's why he's a Metal God. Thanks for sharing your brilliant reaction.

@@desmondhume7223 I do agree with you. I was a rebellious teen way back then but now, as an old grannie, I love them more. Lost Children of the Sea, when I hear it now, is more relevant than it was then. It was foreshadow in the 80s but seems very "present" right now. (Forgive me...have always been a geek for lyrics)
