I own everything Judas Priest did from 1975-1991 , I had about 4 or 5 albums on vinyl including this one. It was the only one I didn`t bother replacing on CD (even their debut album & nobody owns that).

I think another problem was that this was their current album when I got into the band around 89/90 so this was the first Priest album I bought & I just remember thinking it was crap compared to the little of their old stuff i`d heard & wished i`d bought one of the other 2 albums you mentioned instead.

But i`d say if you are going to buy it at least it was a part of a collection with 2 of the greatest metal albums of the 80s.So you got your moneys worth
