Re-visiting Ozzy and Priest

PREEEEEEEEST

I've been on a 'Sin After Sin'/'Stained Class' binge for about a week.

Things get kind of stupid after 'Defenders' and there is already some duhhhh stuff on there but it just ROCKS SO HARD.

Maiden I don't really binge on anymore, there's just no need, I dunno. I'll go through a record for a day or two but that's it.

Despite IM being my favorite band, I'm pretty much in the same boat. Since the majority of their songs are so etched on my brain I can play them mentally barely missing a note.

I love Priest and Maiden both but Ozzy leaves me kind of 'meh'. I Still like "No More Tears" and "Bark at the Moon" quite a bit but I have never really been able to get into the rest of the catalog.

As far as Priest goes, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Screaming and Painkiller by miles ahead of the rest of the catalog. I also really like the Ripper era's Live in London album quite a bit. I love the way Ripper sings Hell Bent For Leather but I don't remember if it is on that album or not. I have him singing that track on the Hell Bent Forever tribute, which is why I actually bought it.

I still listen to both Ozzy and JP frequently. The other day I was jamming Bark At the Moon which to me is the best Ozzy album ever. I enjoy all of JP except Jugulator and Demolition.
