Unabridged Audiobook
Hot damn! This book kept me cominh back to learn more. The story of the Metal God is a roller coaster like no other, while also being an inspiring story of a great man becoming comfortable to live as himself in the world. Rob is a great narrator just like he is a singer, and I would definitely recommend this to a friend, if they liked Priest.
A deeply personal and poignant insight into the life of the metal god. Funny, sometimes sad, and inspiring. It might not speak to everyone, but it certainly speaks to me.
Rob Halford is the best!
A very interesting and honest book read by a heavy metal icon. It is a shame that he had to stay in the closest for so long to protect his image, and the success of the legendary Judas Priest band. If you are a Priest fan, and you skip this book, you have another thing coming! Highly recommended.
This is a poignant, honest and sometimes thrilling account of the heavy metal god's life. It follows the development of judas priest, one of the best heavy metal bands in history, as important as black sabbath. However, this book plays out moreso of halford's adventures and struggle in finding a mate and contains funny stories regarding his sexuality. The big concern was staying closeted as a homosexual...his concern was that revealing it would squash the band's reputation. Its amusing to read about what some of the lyrics to sime songs really mean. Theres plenty of stories about the shenanigans and revelations of the talent of the band. This is one of the best autobiographies of a heavy metal singer- a legend with nothing to hide in the end and his honesty is touching and oh so human.
