Sad Wings of Destiny Reviews:
Essential Metal Album! 
2009-09-20 - Just imagine. What life would be without this album? There probably wouldn't be Judas Priest because they made a break-through with this album. But there wouldn't be most of the metal bands in the world nowadays. For example, Dave Mustaine from Megadeth has said that this album has inspired him very much. At first when I listened to it through I thought: Well, there's a couple of good tracks but the rest of the material is bad. I don't know why but later I bought this album for myself. Maybe, because Dave Mustaine liked it so much. Now I have listened to it more than seven times, and I have to say that I love it! Rob can sing very high! All the songs are amazing! Even the peaceful ones "Dream Deceiver", "Prelude" and "Epitaph" are absolutely amazing! This album may need time to open but it's worth it! No wonder that Priest deceided to perform four of the album's songs in "Unleashed in the East" live album.
Stars: Victim of Changes, The Ripper, Tyrant

2009-09-18 - i first heard this albumin 1979.i had always liked what icalled acid rock.when a friend of mine told me to listen to this,i was blown away instantly and became a huge priest fan overnite.I know that British Steel is supposedly the best Priestalbum ever but in my agressive opinion nothing compares to Sad Wings Of Destiny, Halfords delivery and range on this recording are incredible and unmatched.plus yhe subject matter and depth of this album is unequaled. I hoped for years for Priest to follow up the same dynamics of this release to no avail until ironically they recorded Painkiller at the end of their works with Halford. definitely one of the top five metal albums of all times. ps IronMaiden based their entire recording careers off of thesubject matter of this album.
Best Psuedo Metal Record Ever
2009-04-03 - Still the best songwriting the band demonstrated. They didn't need leather and the rest of what became the gimmick of the 80's. This is real- check it out. It's going to be around for a long, long time. And it even has......PIANO, KIDS!!!!!
One of the greatest metal bands ever and pieces of metal history!
2009-01-28 - Judas Priest is one of my favorite metal bands period.Rob Halford is one of the best singer in metal that there is.he might be gay and I don't agree with that life style,but that is his choice and that does not make him any less of a great singer.any a**holes that judges his work because of his lifestyle is just stupid and retarded.earlier Judas Priest material was and is to me better than what they are cranking out today.but none the less,they still rock.That being said,check out what I consider two of the greatest metal albums by Judas Priest ever, and that is;"Stained Class" and "Sad wings of Destiny".May Good metal Reign Forever!
Awesome
