Judas Priest Sin After Sin

Judas Priest's influence on generations of musicians and metalheads is incalculable. 1977's Sin After Sin served as the bridge between the band's relatively modest beginnings and their subsequent global dominance. It was Priest's first album on Columbia Records after their contract with Gull Records was terminated. Produced by Deep Purple's Roger Glover and featuring young and upcoming session drummer, Simon Phillips, the gold-certified collection is anchored by the band's hard-edged cover of Joan Baez's "Diamonds & Rust" which was Priest's first single to receive radio attention and became an immediate live favorite.
