Back in the day "Priest" was a big influence and motivator for my interest in guitar, trying to learn all the riffs from British Steel then going back into their earliest stuff as well as the music they continued to create. Great stuff !!
Been to 10+ Priest shows over the years and although the current line up is missing both guitarists that made them what they were I scored tickets to their upcoming local show 10/5
In remembering the influence the music had on me here's a couple covers I attempted. Keeping in mind I'm not a vocalist let alone a vocalist with the range and power of Rob Halford.
