Unleashed in the East is Judas Priest's first live album, recorded
live in Tokyo, Japan during the Hell Bent for Leather Tour in
1979. It was released in September 1979 and became the band's
best-selling album up to that point, reaching the US Top 100 and
the UK Top Ten, eventually the album became one of the five Judas
Priest albums to gain a RIAA platinum certification
To what extent the album was really live remains a matter of
contention, with the album sometimes being called Unleashed in the
Studio. Years later, after he had left Priest, Rob Halford noted
in various interviews that the music was indeed live, but that his
vocals had been ruined in the original recording and were later
dubbed in a concert-like studio setting
Judas Priest's first official live recording has always been met
with equal amounts of acclaim and controversy: acclaim from those
who consider it an excellent summation of the metal legend's 1970s
output, and controversy from the critics and industry insiders who
criticized what they believed to be a heavily overdubbed and
studio-enhanced performance, mockingly naming it Unleashed in the
Studio at times. Before delving deeper into this issue, let it be
said that except for a few unfortunate omissions ("Hell Bent for
Leather," "Better by You, Better Than Me" the track listing here
is quite impressive. Along with powerful versions of such storming
anthems as "Exciter" and "Running Wild," the band delivers the
definitive version of the prog metallic "Sinner," and competent
versions of their popular covers tunes, "Diamonds and Rust" and
"The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Pronged Crown)." Interestingly
most of the tracks from the classic Sad Wings of Destiny fall
short of their mark, however, perhaps because they forfeit
heaviness at the expense of speed. As for the "live" dilemma, in
the late '90s estranged singer Rob Halford would claim in
interviews that, while the band's playing was indeed recorded
entirely live, his vocals had been ruined in the original mix
forcing him to re-record them in one take in a concert-like
setting. If this was the case, it would hardly be the first or
most severe case of studio interference on a live recording, and
fans seeking a concise, nearly flawless collection of Priest's
1970s hits will not be disappointed
