He caught a bad rap for filling i don't think the band was fair to him.behind closed doors he loved Halford idolized him as we all do our heroes I seen him here in Lubbock texas in like 97 or say my memory isn't what it used to be and he brought he always will I love Tim the ripper
IMO, Ripper did the definitive version of this song at Milwaukee's Summerfest 2002. The entire show was broadcast live, and I'd love to have seen them do an official release of that show.
Diamonds and Rust Lyrics Well I'll be damned Here comes your ghost again But that's not unusual It's just that the moon is full And you happened to call And here I sit, hand on the telephone Hearing a voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Heading straight for a fall As I remember your eyes Were bluer than robin's eggs "My poetry was lousy, " you said Where are you calling from? A booth in the Midwest Ten years ago I bought you some cuff links You brought me something We both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Well you burst on the scene Already a legend The unwashed phenomenon The original vagabond You strayed into my arms And there you stayed Temporarily lost at sea The Madonna was yours for free Yes the girl on the half-shell Could keep you unharmed Now I see you standing With brown leaves falling around An' snow in your hair Now you're smiling out the window Of that crummy hotel over Washington Square Our breath comes out white clouds Mingles and hangs in the air Speaking strictly for me We both could have died then and there Now you're telling me You're not nostalgic Then give me another word for it You, who are so good with words And at keeping things vague 'Cause I need some of that vagueness now It's all come back too clearly Yes I loved you dearly And if you're offering me diamonds and rust I've alredy paid
GREAT STUFF ( TIM " RIPPER" OWENS) GREAT BAND ALSO// YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME// LOVE THIS ONE( IT WAS ORIGINALLY RECORDED BY A GREAT FEMALE SINGER// AND PRIEST COVERED IT ON ( SIN AFTER SIN) GREAT TUNE\,,,/
Fucking Ripper Man🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻I Live about 40 minutes of where Tim’s from,some good artists have come from the Cleveland/Akron area,Chaimara,Ripper,JANI Lane of Warrant,RIP
Tremenda version con el GENIO el SEÑOR Daniel Telis, un artista tremendo y una gran partida para el metal nacional! Pude verlo en vivo en el teatro opera de la ciudad de la plata, tremendo show!
When Halford left JP they found Ripper and it was a good substitution, when UDO left Accept they found Tornillo, AC/DC found a good screaming vocal,BS found Dio and only Nazareth and Queen failed.

The true test of a vocalist for me. How they perform the material faithful to the record. The test for a different vocalist should be the same. When I saw Tim's performance with Priest he was phenomenal! The criteria for that night for me came down to two songs for his acceptance. Beyond the Realms of Death and Victim of Changes. He totally owned both songs. Mind you Rob Halford is my all time favorite. However, the voice only holds up for so long. Why can't more people accept this. It's a fact no matter how you care for it. Like any instrument it wears out eventually. At that time ( Rippers Reign ) he was the better suited singer for the band. Yes the downtuned a bit. Ripper didn't have 4 octaves to work with. He did have great tone and control. No he can't even duplicate what he did in his high end . He's still one of metal's best. Listen to his original live rendition of Diamonds and Rust from his first live effort with Priest. Personally I don't think there is a better version.
Tecnicamente eu acho o Ripper superior ao Halford (com todo respeito ao Metal God). Se você comparar por exemplo Painkiller ao vivo, pega o Halford cantando ela ainda jovem em 90/91 e depois escute o Ripper cantando. O Halford quase se mata pra cantar ela enquanto o Ripper faz parecer brincadeira.
lamentablemente Rob aunque es un caballero y Tim lo admira y respeta, no ha estado a la altura de Ripper al despreciar cantar en vivo las canciones de la era de Tim en el Jugulator y Demolition, Halford ha evade el tema cada que le preguntan
@@yodhemv1408 Dickinson desde su regreso en 1999 a Iron Maiden jamás a puesto excusas para no cantar las canciones que grabo Blaze Bayley y a la fecha las siguen incluyendo en los set en vivo, en mi opinion si halford las ignora es por que no puede alcanzar las notas de ripper y ripper si alcanzo y supero las notas de halford es asunto de facultades fisicas nada tiene que ver quienes mas famoso o no, saludos
Как мне кажется, Роб чувствовал любовь Джоаны.... к великому автору и исполнителю песен Бобу... и поэтому у них, Джудасов.., есть несколько видов великолепных каверов на её песню и столько времени они посвятили этому шедевру, продолжая в своём "металлическом" стиле как жизнь этой песни так и жизнь любви Джоаны Баез к Бобу Дилану
리퍼 진짜 최고의 보컬이다. 인기 밴드의 보컬리스트였다면 그는 더 크게 평가 받았을것이고 락 보컬리스트 지망생들의 교과서가 됬을것이다. 로니제임스디오, 데이빗커버데일, 롭헬포드 보다 그가 떨어지는 부분이 어디에 있나? 완벽한 컨트롤, 여러가지 톤으로 소리를 구사하고.. 정말 괴물같은 보컬이다.
