@Vail yeah 100% no way Glenn or Rob would allow Andy playing a solo on the album,no way so it's most likely Ritchie's solo. The 5 tracks in a row in the middle of the album are definitely Glenn's solos in there,it's his signature style.
But the rest is too hard to figure out because some of Ritchie's solo style has a little Glenn influence in there especially the 2nd half of the Firepower solo and especially the No Surrender solo sounds exactly what Glenn would of done,but not in a bad way,it's understanding being Ritchie had Glenn to learn from for the last 7 yesrs.
Glenn's 5 solos mentioned are incredible considering his Parkinson's. I wonder if he'll even be able to play on a next album. Idk,doesn't matter if they ever make another album.

I know this is a late response to this post, but Evil Never Dies is certainly a tricky one. On the studio track, the guitar tone for that first solo is different. Sounds more like Richie's to me. Why is Andy playing it live? Maybe it's one less solo for Richie to worry about? Don't forget, Richie is also playing some of Glenn's parts/solos on the majority of the classic songs in the setlist. One other possiblity is that it's a Glenn solo that Andy had to play in the studio himself...which makes me wonder as to just how recently this track was made. One of the last ones, maybe? Anyway. The big point? If there's going to be a Glenn solo, it's going to sound like it's coming from his guitar(s). He doesn't seem to be the type to have others play his solos for him, much less in a studio setting.
Ok so I was dead wrong on the solo to No Surrender,I thought it sounded like Glenn for the life of me,but the video proves it's Ritchie.
Now... the solos:
Firepower --------------- Ritchie Lightning Strike -------Ritchie Evil Never Dies ---------first solo GLENN second Ritchie Never The Heros------- I did say Glenn,but changing to Ritchie Necromancer ---------- trade offs: Ritchie/Glenn/Ritchie/Glenn Children Of The Sun ---first solo Ritchie second Glenn Guardians -----------------Both Rising from Ruins ------first solo Ritchie second Glenn Flame Thrower ----------first solo Ritchie second Glenn Spectre ---------------------Ritchie Traitors's Gate -----------Ritchie No Surrender -------------Ritchie Lone Wolf ------------------Ritchie Sea Of Red ----------------Glenn then Ritchie
Where am I wrong now if I am?
I know the first solo in Evil Never Dies has a guitar wha effect Ritchie uses alot but live Andy plays this part....if it's Ritchie then why would Andy play his solo? Leads me to think it's Glenn.
Guido? Head Banger? Acolyte? Vail? Nupe?
What do you think...help me figure out Glenn's solos
[J.D. DIAMOND] Thursday, July 26, 2018 10:59:47 PM
@acolyte...
Perhaps Glenn is just on 5 tracks all in a row because those are 100% Glenn:
#5. Necromancer -------------2nd trade off solos for sure #6. Children Of The Sun ---2nd solo right before: "Mountains Start to crumble".... #7. Guardians ------------------Both #8. Rising from Ruins ------2nd solo #9. Flame Thrower ----------2nd solo
The rest Ritchie? One thing that they could do differently would be not to over lay the next part of the solo over the top of a finishing one like in the title track Firepower Ritchie plays this entire solo not only live but before they went on tour there was a video of him playing it along with the studio version is what is heard.
On the audio it sounds like of course Ritchie when the solo hits but You can hear the next part of the solo sliding down into the part that finishes the solo... when I first heard this I thought Glenn kicked in with his solo to finish but it is definitely Ritchie.
Either way still Glenn rips out 5 solos on this record for sure and Ritchie's solo' s are outstanding to say the least. Glenn had so much more input to the song writing and structure of those tracks.

[J.D. DIAMOND] Sunday, July 22, 2018 5:36:55 PM
@vail... love that picture! @vail,guido,Head Banger,acolyte,Nupe,and everyone else I've also been listening to Firepower everyday since it's release and by now nearing 5 months since it's release coming up(August 9th) I'm not caught up in the moment now when I say this again... and it's MY personally ligit 100% from the heart opinion about the album which I don't expect anyone to have to agree with me of course not etc....
But in my opinion Firepower is EQUAL to any Classic Priest album there is. If Screaming For Vengeance is Judas Priest's best album then Firepower is EQUAL to it. If Defenders Of The Faith is Judas Priest's best record then Firepower is EQUAL to it. Sad Wings of Destiny or Stained Class,British Steel or Painkiller or Angel Of Retribution... Firepower is EQUAL to it.
I'm also not saying Firepower is BETTER than the other elite albums which is to keep in mind while I state my opinion.... not at all,I LOVE Screaming,Sad Wings,British Steel and DOTF ..... absolutely but I can't put them ahead of Firepower either....
I love every song on Firepower,all 14 are classic GEMS that many bands will cover in the future. Lone Wolf is fuckin BAD ASS,Sea Of Red I love too,I know you didn't like this track Head Banger but even if you skip this track and even Flame Thrower cause your not too thrilled with it,we all can't like the same thing all the time it goes for me too,but even taking those 2 off the album the 11 tracks remaining STILL an incredible amount of songs to be this good across the board...shit even take another track off...10 songs left is still an incredible amount of songs to be this good..
But I'm blown away on Firepower... It doesn't HAVE to have K.K. and Glenn's twin solos etc... the solos the way they are structured here are BRILLIANT.
Guardians and Rising From Ruins the best masterpiece on the record and to me is as great as any Priest track ever written.
I never thought I'd ever say that an album this far into thier career can be equal to any Classic Priest album,it just blows me away. I also can see why Head Banger can see A.O.R. as equal.... in my opinion Judas Rising,Demonizer and Hell Rider are 3 of Priest's best tracks top 15 for sure.
It's all opinions of course but yes Firepower is a masterpiece that has blown my mind and I also think Ritchie Faulkner IS equal to K.K. Downing in style,sound and importance to the band.

As Acolyte - I miss KK in the band as the band it used to be however I think the band has grown and progressed without him, for the better IMO, everything just seems better now, sound,energy writing etc , great article JD
[J.D. DIAMOND] Tuesday, June 26, 2018 9:09:45 PM
Ian Hill interviewed at Hellfest France June 22nd was asked about his final thoughts on K.K. Downing's March 18' comment about how K.K. said he was "shocked and stunned" he wasn't asked back to the band to step into his original role as guitarist for Judas Priest and how he thought he made the right decision to step down because they did not call him back. A previous interview Ian said: We thought he'd be shocked and stunned "HAD" we called him back... and in this recent interview also posted on Blabbermouth.net Ian had this to say:
"I didn't know, really, where he was coming from with that comment," Hill said (see video below). "I think he just played a bit of mischief, to be honest. I mean, Ken's place in the band has already been taken; he's sitting right there [referring to current PRIEST guitarist Richie Faulkner, who was also taking part in the press conference, alongside drummer Scott Travis]. It's also two albums down the road since 'Nostradamus', which is the last one he played on, and is he gonna be prepared to play music from the new album, which he probably would not. And on top of that, he's gonna have to learn Glenn's parts too.
So it's all reasons why we didn't [ask him to return]. Apart from that, he's been retired for nearly eight years. He hasn't since set foot on stage as far as I know, so he's hardly at the peak of his game at the moment. So, yeah, I wasn't quite sure where he was coming from with that — I really don't. I think it might have been just [him playing] a bit of mischief." End of subject.
Fuckin A man there is nothing that would be more cool than seeing K.K. and Ritchie AND Glenn all in Priest with "K.K.'s HEART AND SOUL INTO THE BAND "what a fantasy. But the reality is K.K. obviously isn't into this band....
Perhaps if they fired Ritchie,replaced him with K.K. and Keep Andy and play material from Rocka Rolla to Nostradamous. Idk it just seems like a far cry to expect Rob,Glenn,Ian & Scott to fire Ritchie so K.K. could "step back into his original role as guitarist for Judas Priest" as he put it. I couldn't see them performing Firepower live with K.K.'s version guitar solos of Ritchie's?
If that happened and called him back what are they gonna do,scrap playing Firepower tracks? I do love K.K. as he is always on our albums to listen to,but I do NOT miss him in Judas Priest. I just don't. I actually like Ritchie equally as I do K.K.
Redeemer Of Souls and Firepower are 2 of Judas Priest's elite best records and Ritchie seems like he's always been in Judas Priest. Glenn was right....finding Ritchie was a MIRICLE for Judas Priest. Edited at: Tuesday, June 26, 2018 9:10:55 PM

Not exactly a direct route but the cheapest. Mowed my four-foot lawn today in the early morning to beat the heatwave. It is 90 or so here.

@Vail that would be awesome if he played and toured with Les binks, as for Richie I agree, i think the writing of has progressed from ROS to F, i think that they have more energy, drive and enthusiasm etc, if it means I get to see Rob,Ian and Scott and health willing Glenn supported by a "newbie"(7+years) and a hired gun then so be it!!!!! As Acolyte
[Vaillant 3.0] Saturday, May 19, 2018 9:37:32 AM
I agree with ya, JD. Richie is an absolutely important member of JP, and should be recognized as such. He's been in the band for 7 years now?? Damn. Imagine if the band had stopped touring/making albums after KK left?? Shit, if that were the case, we wouldn't have these last two albums, that amazing Battle Cry DVD, and Rob singing some damn high notes live. And yet, some fans simply choose to live in the past. I am damn thankful that the band chose to go on and picked Richie to take KK's place.
I agree Vail. I,just like all of us wish K.K. was IN the band but it's obvious he only wanted Rob,Glenn and Ian to pretty much kick Ritchie out of the band so he could presume his original role. That's very offensive to the band I'm sure.
People have some kind of idea that Ritchie isn't important to Judas Priest.That he's only a temporry fill in like Andy is doing for Glenn and it's not the same damn thing.
Ritchie is as important to Judas Priest as Glenn and K.K. are at this point in the band's career. 3 years from now he will have been in the band for 10 years....a decade.
And as good as Redeemer Of Souls is and now even better now with the almighty Firepower.... solidifies Ritchie.

I don't think the band will be affected by this at all. It's only KK's rights to the songs that would be affected. He prolly just won't get anymore money when the songs are played.
That being said, it was still not cool of him to target the band the way he did a couple of months ago.
no wonder why he wanted to be called back for this tour, he's $%&@ broke...
but then, how would this really affect the band? I mean, it's the right to some of their songs (136, nothing to worry about )...so they just won't feature them anymore in any upcoming material?

Nope. Nobody new can register. Nobody who changes their password can get back in...word to the wise, eh? Never lose your email addy! EXACTLY why I was gonna name this thread after you!
I just mowed my lawn to Priest. Makes me drive the ol' tractor faster! HA!
Yeah I'm not even sure if anyone can even register an account here anymore ha. Fine by us it's been the regulars posting here the majority anyways. I do miss missing members like spa...SPA WHERE ARE YOU?? HRMG too.
"Nice to see you here again too Budred".
Man... I'm still in a state of shock at how GREAT Firepower actually is. And seeing them live was breath taking. Very good live band too,a very well oiled running machine.
God damn guido Firepower is SUPERB and I still can't get over Glenn's slide guitar solo in Flame Thrower!!!

Exactly why I added "restricted" to the name! You KNOW it is a "just for you" thread, JD. Not like any new people will be admitted, eh?
I can even say what my first post WAS! Helluva long time ago. I ripped and posted a Halford NPR interview. One of my earliest. I remember working on it - taking commercials out - from my office.
Hey guido thanks for the thread man... lol been here since January 1st 2005 and stuck in the newbie threads ha ha.
Yeah this is the exception for making a new thread lol.
My Hammerfall thread waa mainly to irritate snot...as was Saxon to irritate Brian shit headed Evans lol. Do I love Hammerfall? Hell yeah but thier not the 3rd best heavy metal act of all time but it sure chapped snot lol.
Great band though I did not like thier last album Built To Last. They will churn out a masterpiece sooner or later.
Saxon however is one of my favorites though with good reason.
Anyways great thread ..... I feel like I'm home again lol

I just hope it doesn't get CLOGGED by all the new members! Gee...would be kinda nice if new people were allowed in, eh?
*inhales* Ahhhh...gotta love the smell of a new thread. One where ALL the remaining members (and potential n00bs) can post anything and everything.
Thanks, Guids!

Even better that that link repost from below (that works but you just have to hit the "Daniels" book on the side for it to go automatically). HERE:

I almost named this "A thread for JD!" There, I think this is just about the only thread I have ever created since back when we had @judaspriest.com email addys!
It'll help keep the "What are you listening to?" now thread clear for that sort of post.
Just a warning to you about using the site nowadays. Do NOT change your password or your email here. You won't get a confirmation email and you'll end up not being able to log back in ever again. As for getting updates about posts? Yeah, there is no system in place where you can get an alert on new posts. Just log in once a day and you'll get to see how many posts were made while you were out.

The Glove Store, maybe?
