My personal favorite JP compilation.......2007-07-15

If I was going to gripe about this song or that left off, I'd buy Metalogy. Since I own every Judas Priest album ever printed, that would be a waste of money. This compilation does give me an inexpensive way to carry my favorite Priest songs around without needing a suitcase. I can listen to a solid hour and a half (plus!) of Priest, and IMHO, it all rocks! Of course, I don't like EVERY JP song ever written (I just collect them), and I usually don't buy compilations of artists I like, due to the fact that there are usually songs on the comp's I dislike. I can genuinely say that I love every song on this collection, and when I feel the need to hear "Green Manalishi", or "Diamonds and Rust", I pop in "Unleashed in the East". Simple.
This 2 CD set stands out due to its affordability, coverage, and portability. Otherwise, why buy second sets of songs you already have? This one is worth it!

Don't own this but..........2007-07-01

I have a huge metal mix cd with some judas priest songs and I must say they were alot heavier and more bad a** than I thought. Like pain killers love their rich speed riffs and solos they sure can kick a** with songs like that I have alot more but I forgot the names they are also on this album too like breaking the law which is not my favorite but good. Judas priest rules and I give em a 5/5 stars.

A great Compilation.......2006-03-11

This is a very good and thought out album. It remains as one of my favorites. But obviously it might be a problem for people who can't afford it. But if you can you should think about it first. one time i listened to one song from a band and decided to get a "best of" collection. It cost me about 4 months worth of allowance. Turned out that the song i listened to was the only one i liked. I made a big mistake that day. So please, for your own good, do a little research and listen to music samples before you buy this great compilation

METAL GODS.......2005-12-10

THIS IS A VERY GOOD PLACE TO START IF YOUR JUST GETTING INTO JUDAS PRIEST.ALMOST ALL THE CLASSICS ARE HERE ALTHOUGH SOME OF THEIR EARLIER WORK IS NOT FULLY REPRESENTED.I COULD'VE DONE WITH THE STUDIO VERSION OF HEADING OUT TO THE HIGHWAY INSTEAD OF THE LIVE ONE BUT OVERALL THIS DISC IS PRETTY GOOD......

Good compilation of essential metal band .......2005-10-08

Metal Works provides an interesting compilation of 2 decades of metal history. Judas Priest is one of the most important metal bands of all time, though they never were and never will be among my favourite bands. For every good song they wrote, they wrote at least one awful one. This also shows through on this compilation. Awesome cuts like Painkiller, Metal Gods, Breaking The Law, Eat Me Alive, Beyond The Realms Of Death, Sinner, Night Crawler and Victim Of Changes. And then truly hideous songs like Wild Nights Hot & Crazy Days, Heading Out To The Highway, Before The Dawn and Turbo Lover. And everything in between (You've Got Another Thing Comin', Living After Midnight, Desert Plains and so on). The band has always bounced back and forward between grim, sinister metal and commercial, poppy metal. Still, in their peak period (77-84) they laid the foundation of many things that were to come and they are an enormously influential band. The good thing about this compilation is that it allows you to skip all those inferior Judas Priest albums like Turbo, Ram It Down, Rocka Rolla and Point Of Entry because all their good songs are represented here. Buy this compilation, together with albums like Painkiller, Stained Class and Defenders Of The Faith, and you've a got a pretty good picture of what this band could do when they focussed their energy on the dark side.
