A Must For Judas Priest Fans.......2007-01-28

I already owned or taped all of Judas Priest's studio albums when this came out, questioning its necessity, but the recording technology of this album was immensely improved over the sound quality of the earlier albums. I didn't know until recently that some tracks were redone in the studio, which might partly explain why the album sounds so crisp, but Judas Priest was also at their peak musically at this time, 1979, so redoing any songs and having them sound better would make sense. I would recommend this album over JP's three first studio albums, Rocka Rolla, Sad Wings of Destiny, and Sin After Sin, as the most relevant songs are here and sound better. For redoing songs in the studio, there are still screwups like the intro from Rob Halford on The Sinner sounds like he saying "The Savage", at least it does on the album I own.

This is still 70's metal, so for those that find music recorded from that time dated or just hate it, will feel the same about this album. But for those that like 70's hard rock and/or Judas Priest, this is a classic!

The Perfect Heavy Metal Live Album.......2006-09-02

I got the vinyl album when I was 16. I ve now this REMASTERED CD. It s better than the original, for sure. I cannot believe Rob did an amazing performance like this! This is a Classic. If you don t like this album, I m not sure you really like Metal. My Playlist includes bands like Vile, Mayhem, Iron Maiden, Helloween, Old Sepultura s*it, Napalm Death, etc But THIS album is necessary, is an essential. The first Heavy Metal Live album. It s in the same (and above)level of Rust in Peace (Megadeth), And Justice for All (Metallica), Reign in Blood (Slayer), The Number of the Beast (Maiden). You cannot be a Metalhead withou this one. You don t have it? What s going on with You?? Get it!! Now!!!!! ;)

10 stars....as least.......2006-08-17

The Setlist, The Production, and especially the performance can't get any better... This was the 1st Priest Album I bought over 25 years ago and I have never grown tired of it. Unleashed in the East is ... an alltime classic!

Mindblowing.......2006-07-21

This live album which was recorded in 1979 sounds just as fresh as any live recording today. All of the songs sound more amplified and metallic than the studio albums. That is saying a lot because "Sad Wings..." and "Hell Bent..." are classics in their own right. But to hear "Victim of Changes" live blows the studio recording out of the water!! I love the studio version of "Victim..."., but the live version is more intense. Most of the songs are played at a faster tempo, but the playing is not sloppy and Rob's vocals are fantastic!! Any metal fan should own this!!

The best live heavy metal album ever made. .......2006-06-18

UNLEASHED IN THE EAST is true JUDAS PRIEST. I first saw JUDAS PRIEST live when they played their first show ever in the U.S. opening for LED ZEPPELIN and RICK DERRINGER at a day on the green in Oakland, Ca. in 1976. I had never heard of them before, but I was blown away by them. I have seen them five times since then, and every show is very memorable. UNLEASHED IN THE EAST is a perfect example of what JUDAS PRIEST is like live. They are true metal gods. UNLEASHED IN THE EAST captures the best of ROB HALFORD, K.K. DOWNING , AND GLEN TIPTON. ROB HALFORDS vocals are in legendary form on this album. This is a must have for any fan of heavy metal, and heavy it is. There are other great live albums in other genres of music, but for heavy metal, this is in my opinion the best. A must have for every metal fan.
