Judas Priest - Rocka Rolla - Music & Performance - CD

Quite unlike their later albums, with not too many fast songs, I still think Rocka Rolla is a great album. It's actually one of my favorite Judas Priest albums. I love all of their seventies albums. The songs are fantastic and Rob Halford sounds great on this. He immediately had a vocal style of his own. I really like most of the songs here. My two favorites are on the second half, the very heavy Never Satisfied and the long and moody nearly progressive Run Of The Mill. The tempos would quickly pick up on their next few albums and the song titles and lyrics would get more evil and sinister, but by itself Rocka Rolla is still a great album. Just don't expect British Steel or Screaming for Vengeance.
