Lyrics (12) |
Originally released as "Killing Machine" in Britain and Europe, in 1978 without "The Green Manalishi", then re-released as "Hell Bent for Leather" in March, 1979 in the USA. The band themselves refer to it as "Killing Machine" consistently.
"Fight for Your Life" is a previously unreleased, early version of "Rock Hard, Ride Free" (which appears on Defenders of the Faith, 1984).
"Riding on the Wind" was recorded live at the US Festival, Glen Helen Park, Devore, California on May 29, 1983. |

The real 70's classic metal album 'Killing Machine' was recorded in 1978. Judas Priest could celebrate a world success. Back then the sound of metal was a bit different from what we know today, Killing Machine is very much rocking, as the whole 70's era of Judas Priest was. From this album we get several metal classics and many are my personal favorites from Priest.
