I remember the first time I listened to the title track on an old Metal radio show. I had no idea who Rob Halford or even Judas Priest were. I'd never heard of them, I didn't even know his name. I thought this was just "some dude". I just thought the music kicked ass at the same time I was also thinking "Who is this outrageous singer wailing like a banshee?". Later on when I became less naive, I started learning and wrapping my head around the extremely iconic standing of Rob in the Metal world.
haha...i guess..the most of us have stories like this from our 'early days' :)
Mine is (haha..still must laugh, when i think about it): I was running around with Iron Maiden shirts as i was a kid - 1 or 2 years BEFORE i was even knowing this is a BAND..which makes cool music. ..my Mom bought it for me, here in a store, in the town where i grow up. I loved this cool Eddie..haha :P My first shirt was Can i play with madness for example. And later..1-2 years, i went to a record store and saw LPs and CDs with the same 'logo' and thought..WTF...this is a band?
