Judas Priest - Live In Memphis DVD

Advantages: 2 hours of headbanging classics
Disadvantages: none unless you can't tune your air guitar properly

...Judas Priest.... so what are they all about then? They're a classic heavy metal band, a product of the heavily industrialised Black Country area near Birmingham (along with the likes of Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Slade etc), playing a form of Heavy rock that is typically British in style, with some fast and furious songs, some slow and melodic, and a few with a bit of both. Add to the mix Rob Halford's massive vocal range, the twin lead guitars, and pounding drums and bass and you have a recipe for something a bit loud and more than a bit special! As for the band image - it's almost always been about leather, studs, chains etc etc, slightly camp, tongue in cheek, and a more than a wee bit over the top. A bit of history first.

Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: nothing

...gone in 60 seconds is a remake of the1974 version. i think it has lived up to the first film (which was not completed). this is a great film, with what i would say makes a film great. it has fast cars, well known actors and a lot of crashes. the story begins with kip memphises brother stealing a porsche, he arrogantly starts a street race and is seen by a police officer on the side of the road making a unrelated arrest. the police officer finds out that the car is stolen and in a couple of minutes the whole police force is trying to catch kips gang. kip and his gang make a exit and fortunately no one is arrested, however a not so pleased calitri (who is going to buy the stolen cars) threatens to kill kip. memphis finds out and goes to see calitri and gives him money to let kip off the hook, unfortunately for kip calitri is more...

Advantages: Shows how they created their album
Disadvantages: Not long enough

...people forget was the drummer for this album then was replaced by the current drummer and in my opinion better and nuttier Nicko McBrain. This DVD is made by the Classic Albums Company who have also made great DVD's like, Metallica with the Metallica album, Judas Priest with their British Steel album along with many others. This shows what good experience they have with making album DVD's Running Time: 80 Mins which isn't really enough for me If you're an Iron Maiden fan and really like this album, this would be a perfect addition to your DVD collection, with really unique footage of the members. This can be bought for £9 on Play.com or as part of a 3 DVD box set with Metallica and Judas Priest for only £12. Thanks for reading my review and I hope this helped you!... Read review
