This installment of the Classic Albums series, in which rock stars talk about the creation of their albums, focuses on the making of British Steel, the 1980 album by Judas Priest, a working-class British, heavy-metal band led by screechy lead singer Rob Halford. As Halford (who has since left the band) and his mates explain what went into the lyrics and recording of the songs that made up the record, the talking heads are intercut with performance footage of a band that helped launch the metal and speed-metal surge of the 1980s and early 1990s. The interviews are not particularly insightful if you're not a fan and are probably redundant if you are; it's fascinating, however, to watch the way the band's studded-leather image evolved over the years. --Marshall Fine

Additional features
Bonus features include old videos from the album (made in the years before MTV) and stories about the controversy over the album's cover (which featured a hand clutching a double-edged razor blade). No mention is made, however, of the fact that the band ultimately booted Halford and replaced him with the singer from a Judas Priest tribute band, a story recreated in the 2001 Mark Wahlberg film, Rock Star. --Marshall Fine

Video Description
Had Judas Priest released just this one album, it would still go down in history. Judas Priest was one of the most influential heavy metal bands of the 70's.

BRITISH STEEL made them a world-famous band.

The welding of BRITISH STEEL is told in this exclusive program in the band's own words, and by their once long-term producer Tom Allom. Featuring archive footage, interviews and rare live performances, plus all of BRITISH STEEL'S finest songs, including "Living After Midnight", "Breaking the Law", "Metal Gods", "The Rage", "United" and "Grinder", this is a compelling, witty and exhilarating look at the making of one of heavy metal's most artful creations, a true Classic Album.

Watch, listen and kneel to the Metal Gods!

カスタマーレビュー

judas　priest british steel
マニア向き、しかし、インタビュウーはもちろん英語なのでおもしろくない、訳もない、曲の１曲フルに入ってない、１曲最初から最後まではいってない。

１回見たらもうえいは。

「神」とやら、馬鹿丸出しだな。
字幕がでないことについて文句を言っている馬鹿なレビュアーがいますね(笑)。輸入版で購入すれば、日本語字幕がないのは当たり前でしょう。こんな馬鹿丸出しの輩に評価を下げられるのは言語道断です。
