This was recorded on the Turbo tour where Priest were at the height of their powers, a full on arena band. Turbo wasn’t that well received, in Europe at least, as most reviews gave it the thumbs down and they were accused of selling out and going soft. The band obviously believed in it as there are four songs represented here. If you have seen Priest live you know they put on one hell of a show, and they still do today.
This is a great live album, you get all the hits and more. Not a lot of old Priest, but the song choices are spot on and work together really well as a set. I’m going to pick Turbo Lover as my favourite as it works so well in a live setting, and the crowd always goes nuts for it. Priest are all about the riffs and the groove, and they give the crowd exactly what they want. It’s sad to see Glenn Tipton struggling with his illness today and his performance on this album shows what a great player he is.
9/10 from The Grooveman.
