These two cd's are almost beyond words. Judas Priest has to be the most overlooked and underrated metal band of all time. I mean seriously, just look at these tracks: Beyond the Realms of Death, Breaking the Law, Dissident Aggressor, Delivering the Goods, You've Got Another Thing Comin'. These are just a few of the most legendary metal songs ever recorded. There is not one clunker on either disc, it just flat out rocks from beginning to end. Metal Works '73-'93 is an undeniable triumph of a collection. Every song on this compilation was forged by the metal gods. Rob Halford's voice has to be the most easily recognized of the genre and has yet to be duplicated. Glenn Tipton and KK Downing's blistering guitar riffs propelled Judas Priest to stardom. Metal Works is a fantastic introduction for both the uninitiated and the hardcore completist. Highest Recommendation.
