JUDAS PRIEST's ROB HALFORD Says It Was 'Euphoric' Performing 'Rocka Rolla' For First Time In More Than Four Decades

In a new interview with Ultimate Classic Rock, JUDAS PRIEST singer Rob Halford was asked what it was like to perform the title track of the band's debut album, "Rocka Rolla", for the first time in 45 years at last month's Bloodstock Open Air festival at Catton Park, Walton-on-Trent, United Kingdom. He responded (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "I threw that out. We all had a list. I threw that out, and Glenn [Tipton, guitar] went, 'I don't think that's gonna work.' I said, 'I don't think it's gonna work either.' I said, 'But wouldn't it be so cool if we did it, because there is the title track of the first album this band ever made?' And so when we got up into rehearsals and we jammed it, and then Richie [Faulkner, guitar] put a bit of a twist on it — double tempo and made this little bit of an arrangement adjustment — I thought, 'Oh, man. This is definitely gonna work.' So when I did make a little tiny of a blab before we played that song at Bloodstock and then he came in, it just felt euphoric. We'd never, ever, ever in the history of the band played it live, and yet here was… That was when your foot connected with the heavy metal football, and the game was on. So I really loved that.

"I'll tell you what I liked about the arrangement," he continued. "On the flight back to America, I was watching this really cool show that Robert Plant did with the SENSATIONAL SHAPE SHIFTERS at Austin City Limits, and the way that he takes the [LED] ZEPPELIN material and he restructures it. There are still important aspects of the songs that you connect with, but he takes you on a little bit of an adventure. And that's what I felt. When I was on the flight back, I was thinking about 'Rocka Rolla'. And then my mind's going, 'Is there anything else we can do like that?' What's another track that we can possibly look at that might take that kind of twist from something way back in the '70s to 2021. Endless opportunities in music."

For the Bloodstock Open Air appearance, JUDAS PRIEST was rejoined by Tipton for three songs.

Tipton was diagnosed with Parkinson's seven years ago — after being stricken by the condition at least half a decade earlier — but announced in early 2018 he was going to sit out touring activities in support of JUDAS PRIEST's latest studio album, "Firepower". He was replaced by "Firepower" album producer Andy Sneap, who is also known for his work in NWOBHM revivalists HELL and cult thrash outfit SABBAT.

JUDAS PRIEST's first pandemic-era tour, the rescheduled "50 Heavy Metal Years" North American trek, kicked off this past Wednesday night (September 8) at Santander Arena in Reading, Pennsylvania.

In early April, JUDAS PRIEST's European tour, which was scheduled to kick off in late May, was once again postponed due to "ongoing COVID-19 vaccine issues." The trek will now run from May 27, 2022 in Moscow, Russia until July 31, 2022 in Oberhausen, Germany.

В смысле вживую, перед публикой.

если верить setlist fm и википедии, а также здравому смыслу (в условиях очень незначительного кол-ва материала не играть титульный трек и единственный сингл альбома было бы очень странно), Присты исполняли ее регулярно как один из гвоздей программы в 74-76 годах. Так что Роб скорее всего просто некорректно выразился. Впрочем, не играть ее 45 лет - это все равно что и вовсе не играть, так что невелика ошибка

Человеку 70 лет и он эту песню больше, чем полжизни не исполнял. Он тупо забыл о том играли они ее или нет, и всё, а вы гадаете что он имел в виду)
Когда поклонники намного лучше самих музыкантов знают что-то про их прошлое - сплошь и рядом, вообще не редкость.
Вчера вот смотрел запись вечера с Нико МакБрейном, так он отвечая на вопрос о двух бочках спрашивал у аудитории как называлась песня "Фейс ин зе сенд" и с какого она была альбома)

Это еще ладно, я помню в голос проиграл когда Джон Шаффер в каком-то шоу гадал песни различных исполнителей и за 20 секунд так и не вдуплил, что играла Heaven Denies (он даже группу не отгадал) его собственного сочинения и исполнения, с адово узнаваемым переменным штрихом.
