To add to the confusion (and anyone who knows "The Best of JP" already knows the problem in that it is both a classic yet released early in JP's career), Heavy Metal Painkillers (Popoff) lists only five "official Judas Priest compilations":
The Best of Judas Priest, Gull (Feb, '78)
Hero, Hero (Gull, '81)
Priest, Live and Rare (Epic, March '98)
Metal Works '73-'93 (Columbia, April '93)
Metalogy (Sony, May '04)
ALL endorsed by the band down to the artwork. Contractual fallout with Gull and Epic locked up some of their earlier work and led to the animosity between JP and Gull / Epic. Anything outside these five (save for foreign releases of the same album) were subcontracted out to lesser labels and had absolutely no band involvement save contractual agreements vis a vis the residual $. |

Right.... just let me get a note pad and pen..... I still can't agree that a band can have a "best of" only covering two albums, just because it was the first. Someone get a musical industry dictionary or the rule book and show me the passage that makes any "compilations" thereafter null and void.....

the cover from "Living after midnight" you have posted
is from the first release in 1997.
487242 2 / 02-487242-10
There are two versions:
1. The "normal" release
2. The Gold Edition
And there is the 3rd release from 2002
4872429000 / 487242 9
"The remasters" release.
Not a part of the original "The remasters" series,
but the cover is the same, with the silver coverage
from the "The remasters" series.
And you can read "The remasters" in the jewel box.
It's the same with Metal Works '73 - '93.
First release from 1993.
473050 2 / 01-473050-10
The second release from 2001
5021382000 / 502138 2
"The remasters" release.
Not a part of the original "The remasters" series,
but the cover is the same with the silver coverage

OK, on "Living after midnight" is written "The best of...."

Good point about politics. I was never much into the politics of it all ... too much for my simple mind to digest, especially when you only hear random bits and pieces.
Love the music, Love their stage presence!!! Think the word MD used in his blog ... Quintessential!

Melissa, there can be only one "The best of...."
and this is "The best of..." from Gull, 'Cause it was
the first and so the first with this title too.
This is a fact and not Guido's and my opinion.
Here's the track list:
1. Dying to meet you
2. Never satisfied
3. Rocka Rolla
4. Diamonds and rust (of course the "Gull version")
5. Victim of changes
6. Island of domination
7. The ripper
8. Deceiver (Yes, without Dreamer Deceiver)

Well i think when it says "Remasters" on the side what the hell am i supposed to say.... errrrrr ummmmm ...... I think maybe what it says on the cover?.... You want to argue the technical terms, well fine.... I own a "compilation"..... Maybe i'll write an angry letter to Columbia records stating how rude it was of them to mislabel the CD in question....

DC, I only stated the obvious as you corrected me on the "Best of JP." Nope, Album was never called that but keep in mind to whom you type. An old fart who LIVED AND DIED for the "Best of JP." A standard throughout my college years. Put it on and it was an instant party. SACRED, IOW! Own it some four times in four different formats.
I hold the line. Yours is not a "remaster." It is a compilation. There are at least four others that offer the "best of." However, to an old fart like me (and many like me) there is and will only be ONE "Best of Judas Priest." Gull - the Picture disc is even the exclusive Milan release (others came around from other countries...nothing close to the quality).

Yes i know that.... I'm not claiming to own that original copy... I wish i did however. And please... do not insult my discographical knowledge by thinking i not know that Living After Midnight wasn't released prior to 1980...
I don't even know what the arguement was even about now... Bottom line is.... Best of's don't count.. because it is my understanding that in order to get on a best of song list it has been played live. And of course Unleashed in the East is contradictory because it was a live set...... I'm sure you merely suggested it to be a smart arse.... *applause*...
I am well aware the copy i have was released as part of the re-masters set back in 2002.

Look at the date. It was not the original release. Again, think about it, how COULD it be? "Living After Midnight" was only written / released years later!
"The Best of Judas Priest" is an album in and of itself. YOU have a re-release compilation with completely different songs. This one is a classic and focuses on their early career (starting with 1974 tunes).
1. Dying To Meet You
2. Never Satisfied
3. Rocka Rolla
4. Diamonds And Rust
5. Victim Of Changes
6. Island Of Domination
7. The Ripper
8. Dreamer Deceiver / Deceiver

Hi Melissa, Susan & Guido
the cover from "Living after midnight" you have posted
is from the first release in 1997.
487242 2 / 02-487242-10
There are two versions:
1. The "normal" release
2. The Gold Edition
And there is the 3rd release from 2002
4872429000 / 487242 9
"The remasters" release.
Not a part of the original "The remasters" series,
but the cover is the same, with the silver coverage
from the "The remasters" series.
And you can read "The remasters" in the jewel box.
It's the same with Metal Works '73 - '93.
First release from 1993.
473050 2 / 01-473050-10
The second release from 2001
5021382000 / 502138 2
"The remasters" release.
Not a part of the original "The remasters" series,
but the cover is the same with the silver coverage
from the "The remasters" series too.
And you can read "The remasters" in the jewel box.
OK, on "Living after midnight" is written "The best of...."
but there's only one "The best of...." From Gull!!

DC, I only stated the obvious as you corrected me on the "Best of JP." Nope, Album was never called that but keep in mind to whom you type. An old fart who LIVED AND DIED for the "Best of JP." A standard throughout my college years. Put it on and it was an instant party. SACRED, IOW! Own it some four times in four different formats.
I hold the line. Yours is not a "remaster." It is a compilation. There are at least four others that offer the "best of." However, to an old fart like me (and many like me) there is and will only be ONE "Best of Judas Priest." Gull - the Picture disc is even the exclusive Milan release (others came around from other countries...nothing close to the quality).
Jest a purist / obsessive collector sayin' ....

Yes i know that.... I'm not claiming to own that original copy... I wish i did however. And please... do not insult my discographical knowledge by thinking i not know that Living After Midnight wasn't released prior to 1980...
I don't even know what the arguement was even about now... Bottom line is.... Best of's don't count.. because it is my understanding that in order to get on a best of song list it has been played live. And of course Unleashed in the East is contradictory because it was a live set...... I'm sure you merely suggested it to be a smart arse.... *applause*...
I am well aware the copy i have was released as part of the re-masters set back in 2002.

Look at the date. It was not the original release. Again, think about it, how COULD it be? "Living After Midnight" was only written / released years later!
"The Best of Judas Priest" is an album in and of itself. YOU have a re-release compilation with completely different songs. This one is a classic and focuses on their early career (starting with 1974 tunes).
1. Dying To Meet You
2. Never Satisfied
3. Rocka Rolla
4. Diamonds And Rust
5. Victim Of Changes
6. Island Of Domination
7. The Ripper
8. Dreamer Deceiver / Deceiver

And Why, for the Metal God's sake!, would they put a "best of CD" in the remasters list! All the music is on all the other CD's! Now Soy, you are driving my blood pressure up! Your WRONG! Plain wrong.
That's it,.............off to bed! See how upset you have me! No............ On this point I AM right.

Show me where it was a part of the original "remasters" box and I will gladly concede this point. I can always admit when I'm wrong. May not like it, but I can.
