Wow,so you basically heard it when it came out...thats awsome! British Steel is like the greatest hits of JP..except obviously it is its own album...amazing record. Most people pick Painkiller and I'm not saying that Painkiller is not close...it is close neck and neck........I somehow pull towards British Steel.

The first time I heard it I did not know it was out yet and the boy who took me home from work was playing it. I was listening to "the Rage" and was like, this sounds like priest. Found out it had come out a few days before. Next day I had my dad take me to the mall so I could get it. I was 15 at the time.

Yes spapad,I was 10 years old when this album was released,but it was'nt untill I was 12 years old that I got into this album...about the same time Screaming For Vengeance was released 1982. The first thing/song that got me into Judas Priest was "Heading Out To The Highway" video!

I think the release of British Steal defined what metal was all about.

In my opinion, BRITISH STEEL is the best heavy metal album of all time.
