One of the greatest singers in metal. It’s a shame this fella couldn’t cement a long term position in a band. Tim deserves much more than to be known as the ‘stand in’ guy...
alot of people critisize ripper owens time in judas priest but i dont know why . if anything he should get praise for taking the place of the metal god halford after he left priest . those were some pretty big shoes to try to fill and ripper did a damn fine job at it .
Agreed. Unlike a lot of frontman changes with bands during the 90s, he kept true as best as he could the vocal range of Halford while of course adding his own flare.
Been a Judas Priest fan since 1982, I was in sixth grade riding my bike in the woods and found a Playboy magazine and laying next to it was the tape Unleashed in the East. Mom found the Playboy but I wore that tape out and I can say it changed my life and made me a life long fan. Ripper filled big shoes, respected the opportunity and did a great job.
Rob Halford is one of the greatest metal singers of all time. Ripper did an amazing job of filling his spot for the time he was in the band. I've seen Priest live with both. And both were fucking awesome 🤘🏼
Reticent fans where never prepared for admire someone who was better than his adored metal god, by far Ripper's vocals and power was over what Halford done even in his best days
I love this song,Desert Plains! I could listen to it on repeat everyday for the rest of my life! So clean of tone from everyone! I also like the way Tim shakes his jaw to get every word out. What a special time to be alive!
Tim can sing anything metal. In Cleveland he was in a band called US METAL. They did some priest of course, but also merciful fate, King Diamond and many other great vocal tunes, and he nailed them with ease.
I saw him live as part of Dio Disciples singing Dio/Black Sabbath tunes. He nailed them too. He must be one of the most underrated Metal singers alive!
I haven't seen this footage for about 18 years!! I recently been playing the LIVE METAL MELTDOWN cd...and really appreciate that era of PRIEST with RIpper Owens. What great pipes! Was perfect for Priest at the time.
Guy is good understudy that's bout it. It's like he goes thru the motions but just doesn't bring it home. He is good like I said but at tribute band level. Come on man. I seen Rob in his prime this dude's age at 2001 and it's good very good Rob ran circles round this ripper character at same age
@@precinct1baltimorecountyre588 Lol. Your opinion, but Tim can sing anything, all day. He destroyed Halford on Diamonds and Rust. He hit notes Rob hadn't done clean in years. Ripper is on the rushmore of all time great metal singers.
@educatedhorses193 I hear that sometimes, then I go to a Priest show and Megadeth show and neither move or do anything. I love all 3, but none are David Lee Roth.
Yeah he did an awesome job. Has his own style which also kicks ass. Has lower register in his vocals. He definitely stepped up to the plate. Rob Halford is still the metal god. Kudos to the Ripper!!🤘🎤🎶
I got turned on to Priest in '79 and own every album they have made. Jugulator is my favorite. People gave them a hard time for changing but i loved it.
As much as i love priest & 1st heard them with Rob & thought no one could ever replace him,Tim sure as hell can hit the notes & he even sounds clearer & better then Rob,Tim has it all,the guy can sing & it shows with all the many projects he has going for him
When Judas Priest needed a new singer they got an amazing replacement, when the same happened to Maiden, they found a "town crier" to do the job. Long live PRIEST!!!
Kk Downing is bringing back Priest real soon with The Ripper back as the vocalist now that he’s out the band So this is a great example of what to expect 🤞🏻🙏🏼🎉
Jugulator я не сразу воспринял, а вот Demolution вообще зашло на ура! Хотя воспринимаю эти альбомы, как что-то отдельное от Judas Priest, слушаю их и сейчас
Ripper saved Priest and did an amazing job. Unreal vocals.
THE Man is the new Metal God.
I'm 100% with you on that one, mate.
Actually great job with kk's priest music.
did he replace priest because he was sick or something ?
One of the greatest singers in metal. It’s a shame this fella couldn’t cement a long term position in a band. Tim deserves much more than to be known as the ‘stand in’ guy...
Amen!
Kk's priest. He's killing it
Everybody loves original lineups, but Tim did a good job. I'd cheer him on any day.
Rob was a god already, they just created another one...what a voice...hate the cap though :(
That sus leather cap is cool tho?
I’ll take Ripper and KK over the current guys any day … including Halford/ Papa Smurf
Tim is as good as Halford - love both a 50/50 Album From both would be awesome
Just saw him with KK’s Priest last night. What a voice!! Amazing is an understatement. Long live Tim Reaper Owens!!!😎👍

Tim brought in younger fans that would never have attended JP concerts otherwise.
Tim saved Priest.
Agreed! He makes want to get a Monster.
People should be thankful they didn't hire Blaze Bayley.
The best version of Desert Plains I’ve heard. Ripper is an amazing musician
Dude has a hell of a voice.
I can only agree! Check him out on KK’s Priest :)

double jake. Amazing story! Thanks for sharing 🤘
I absolutely agree!!
He IS still a great singer...look: K.K. Downing-Before The Dawn,KK'S Steel Mill-Sunday 03.11.2019.
Unleashed was my first Priest album as well. Still one of my favorite albums ever. Amazing band!
LOL I wonder what moms actually thought we they found our playboys mags...
One of the most underrated vocals.
The Ripper is one of the best metal vocalists ever.
Rob Halford is one of the greatest metal singers of all time. Ripper did an amazing job of filling his spot for the time he was in the band. I've seen Priest live with both. And both were fucking awesome 🤘🏼
Ripper rules 🤘🤘
Indeed
For sure!
Just a vocal monster
He nailed it in the sentinel!!!!!
Damn right he did. He finds a way to make it both the same and different.
Ripper is a fuckin great 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Reticent fans where never prepared for admire someone who was better than his adored metal god, by far Ripper's vocals and power was over what Halford done even in his best days
He did his job so well that you can tell the whole band had peace of mind.
This is the best version of Desert Plains, in my opinion. Ripper is a legend and he's killing it with the new band.
Great to see Tim and Ken smashing Metal for 6 in Kk's Priest, 2024!!!
I enjoyed this incarnation of Priest. I bought the CDs when they came out. Good stuff that seems underappreciated by fans and the band themselves.
timay is amazing
Just this morning Ripper Owens released a Dio tribute with Metal Piano and it sounds EPIC!
I love this song,Desert Plains! I could listen to it on repeat everyday for the rest of my life! So clean of tone from everyone! I also like the way Tim shakes his jaw to get every word out. What a special time to be alive!
I love this version with Tim!
Tim can sing anything metal. In Cleveland he was in a band called US METAL. They did some priest of course, but also merciful fate, King Diamond and many other great vocal tunes, and he nailed them with ease.
I thought he was in a cover band called Winters Bane.
@@robertbishop5357 Winter Bane was one of his bands as well...they did alot of originals. US Metal was all copies if my memory is correct.
I saw him live as part of Dio Disciples singing Dio/Black Sabbath tunes. He nailed them too.
He must be one of the most underrated Metal singers alive!
@@TheOnemanmoshpit He is great.
When Tim and Oni Logan was taking turns it was great.
Had a new respect for the lead guitar player as well.
He was in a band called British Steel and Seattle as well.
Ripper f****** rips it here boys I loved it
the audio quality in this rehearsal was better than the live gig one.
The Ripper at his best. Phenomenal. Love it!
Marietje D yes he is!
Tim Ripper
kills!!!!! Great singer! I know from Winters Bane´s years :)
Priest is also looking good here too especially Tipton now Ripper with the icing on the cake
I haven't seen this footage for about 18 years!! I recently been playing the LIVE METAL MELTDOWN cd...and really appreciate that era of PRIEST with RIpper Owens. What great pipes! Was perfect for Priest at the time.
Tim is a freakin beast!
Everyone Hail the Ripper.....and give him standing ovation. He deserves it. .....period😎😎😎😎🤗🤗🤗🤗
Love Machine Man. The arrangement, the guitar work, Scott Travis drumming and of course Tim Ripper Owens belt those vocals. Thumbs ?
Tim is so underrated! He should be up there with Dio, King Diamond, and Hanford.
King is on a Level all his own!
But yea Tim was solid as RJD, one rung below Halford and Tate.
Throw Eric Adams into that mix please.
Guy is good understudy that's bout it. It's like he goes thru the motions but just doesn't bring it home. He is good like I said but at tribute band level. Come on man. I seen Rob in his prime this dude's age at 2001 and it's good very good Rob ran circles round this ripper character at same age

Desert plains - Great song from JP - and a great version of this song with Tim Owens
FOREVER MY FAVORITE RIDING TUNE
The Ripper years of Judas Priest are like the Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated of Judas Priest! So awesome, love Ripper 🤘!
I got turned on to Priest in '79 and own every album they have made. Jugulator is my favorite. People gave them a hard time for changing but i loved it.
Great timing and great exposure for both parties talk about being in the right place at the right time.
Man. Dude has skills.
Fuck yeah!! Ripper Owens voice ROCKS!!
Goosebumps
Wish I would seen this version of Judas Priest
And he starts the songs with a a very bad ass priest song I friggen love fuck yeah 🤟
Sin lugar a dudas ripper llegó en el momento y tiempo exacto a priest, una voz muy potente, educada, que lo llevo a calzar en los zapatos de Halford.
De hecho los chicos de judas priest le bajaron el tono a la musica, para que la voz de ripper luciera.
Ripper is quite impressive ... no question about it.
Hermoso ❤❤❤
Saw him in santa fe and boy did he kick ass..Ripper🤟🤟🤟see you in oct with KK
Saw them. KK priest in October.. awesome

Impresionado con el trabajo de Tim ripper,
Lógico. Es insuperable.

Thid guy is, just amazing! Cannot wait for KK Priest album'!
Jugulator is in my top 5 JP records of all time 🤘🏻
Damn what a voice, awesome
Saw them and met them on this tour in Anaheim. Great show and great guys! Especially Ripper and Ian!
Absolutely shreds!!!
Ripper was brilliant!
Young Timothy S "Ripper" Owens.... Awesome! Tim is the best heavy metal vocalist in the business!

As much as i love priest & 1st heard them with Rob & thought no one could ever replace him,Tim sure as hell can hit the notes & he even sounds clearer & better then Rob,Tim has it all,the guy can sing & it shows with all the many projects he has going for him

This guy SINGS!
Thanks for sharing this.
Sem palavras. Que vocal! Que banda! As músicas antigas ficaram melhores! Isso é quase impossível! O que estou vendo aqui?!
When Judas Priest needed a new singer they got an amazing replacement, when the same happened to Maiden, they found a "town crier" to do the job. Long live PRIEST!!!
Cara!!! Que som...isso é magnífico.como eu gosto desse som, perfeito.Tim ripper é muito bom demais...
glen tipton and kk are legends !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kk's guitar sound reminds me of the Priest I loved.
Saw them twice w/ this lineup @ the Newport in Columbus Ohio & I’ll never B the same...
Saw them on Halloween night in NYC with Ripper, it was a great show.
Awesome
He has a great voice in my opinion 😂
Kk Downing is bringing back Priest real soon with The Ripper back as the vocalist now that he’s out the band
So this is a great example of what to expect 🤞🏻🙏🏼🎉
Kk not descarted live show by kk's priest playing music jugulator and demolition.
It is like your own personal Priest concert.......pretty good !!
Love his voice. There's only one Halford but Tim did a great job. Plus he's hot
That's was beautiful
Gracias a Tim, Judas sobrevivió
Un gran vocalista!!!
Great just great
Almost 2 decades after leaving JP ripper reunites with KK for KKS priest
Only thing I can say is WOW! Great singing buddy. I see the rest of the band still has their chops as well. 👍🏼
I never realized Tim Owens was dio and halfords baby
nice lineup of Judas Priest in their career period
RIPPER F**KIN' RULES!!!
🤘❤❤🎤❤❤🤘
Great voice for sure, listen to The Glorious Burden by Iced Earth. Amazing!!
Superb
Another level
Machine Man is on of my top 10 metal songs!
Jugulator я не сразу воспринял, а вот Demolution вообще зашло на ура! Хотя воспринимаю эти альбомы, как что-то отдельное от Judas Priest, слушаю их и сейчас
Fodástico 🤘 🤘
I so still wish the movie Rockstar had stuck with the original plot of having it be about ripper and priest!! 🤘🤘
This is how it’s done !
