Rob Halford singing with Black Sabbath (Butler, Iommi & Ward) is pretty high on the list of most metal. As was King Diamond doing vocals with Metallica. Now Slayer's Kerry King playing with Pantera, doing Judas Priest's version of Green Manaleshi + Victim Of Changes was seriously metal. This was before Cowboys From Hell when Phil could actually sing. Peace
IMO that title belongs to Ronnie James Dio. Rob Halford is great. But Ronnie never proclaimed "Metal is dead", gave up on it for industrial techno, and came back to metal when it started picking up...like Halford did.
You kidding? He sounds like he's putting his throat through an actual grinder, he clearly struggles or is trying too hard. Studio version is the ultimate version - rough and aggressive, but fully in control. British Steel Anniversary live version is also great.
Dime starts playing the 1st few notes of the You Got Another Thing Coming solo at the start of his Grinder solo. If you've heard it as much as I have, u will here it 4 sure. If not check Priest's original album version of YGATC on S4V vs British Steel "Grinder" & Dimes solo. Peace
Phil was the biggest supporter of underground metal in Pantera. He was always wearing shirts of bands he loved like Deicide, Exhorder, Darkthrone... etc..
February 1997, Mesa (AZ) Amphitheater. I was at this show with my cousin. Lost our minds when Halford came on stage! Here's the entire show: ua-cam.com/video/lhHMH1HXRPA/v-deo.html
I know Rob was in the midst of his NYHC Cro-Mags phase, but some of his movements are so hilariously like those of someone having spastic twitches i can't help but laugh
He IS quite eccentric. I seen them in 2006 opening for Sabbath at Ozzfest. I was maybe 25 at the time and I remember all of the concert goers just gaping in amazement as Rob and Priest ripped through Electric Eye, Metal God's, Breaking the Law, Screaming for Vengeance, Painkiller, Hell-bent for Leather, Some Heads are gonna Roll,etc. The absolute amazement on their faces and the send off they gave Priest before so rudely chanting Ozzy, Ozzy was one of my favorite concert moments. Combine this with the fact a big thunder cloud rolled over at the same time that Sabbath came out playing Black Sabbath, and it was definitely a metal moment
This has to be Mesa, Az 1998 at the Mesa Amp. I can tell from the dimensions of the stage and the angle of the camera. I was at the show this shit was mind blowing!!!!!!!
Wow 🤘🤘Yet at the same time 😢 😢 thinking of all the time's I saw Priest: From British Steel (I was still a teen when it came out, and Screaming For Vengeance had yet to be released), and the 2X I was able to catch Pantera Live (altho I had a 😉 Well, several Black Toothed Grins with both Dime and Big Vin at The Clubhouse prior to a Cowboys game), and they wouldn't let me walk or call me a Taxi !! Instead making sure I got back to my suite safe and totally inebriated 😂🤣 The Cowboys From Hell beat Tampa Bay 14-10 (I think that was the week, as year's blur together), but when I heard about Ohio in like Mar of 04 I was 😭😭 Then Big Vin gone now as well 😔 It's too much for this old, Headbanger 🤘🤘 Hope they're w/Ronnie James, Phil Lynotte and the rest of Heaven's Headbanger's ☝💯
Rob Halford... singing Metal before Metal was Metal...that was SICK. Judas Priest is and always will be one of my top 10 (probably top 3) Metal bands. Pantera is top 5. So...this is a killer winning combo.
it's real simple guys light travels way faster than sound the videos out of syncit's got also got to do with the sound at whatever this particular venue every setup is different remember you're talkin about professionals here
Piero Mcbrain two different singers. Both greats in its own style. Dio had a bluesy soulful tone Haldford will never have. And dio also had deep tone was a more complex singer than Halford. So your idea of who's better is actually very relative
@@a.m8878 Hmm.. just back to 70s Rob . And pre Rocka rolla rob... Rob had blues in it . He distanced himself over the years from it but he has . He is born in 1951 and as every metal singer and founder , he took screaming and intention ( considering also the Midlands environemment ) from BLACK MUSIC . Black people were the ones doing this broken feel and very very hard raspy vocals in 50s .... I mean they all took from there , there rent any Metal archetype when they started . In the whiskey woman version , in the middle , Rob sing like james brown.. Running from my soul with budgie Very Black style of vocals . Even of course he updated and at 5min its like he s doing the broading into pig squeal before its time But to prooves you something in 1992 , with Jeff martin ( racer X ) drums., parish ( fight ) , And Paul gilbert ( Racer x , mr big ) .. He play the Cover made by Ray charles and popularized by Humble pie . Talking about Steve marriot as well as an influence Rob perform I no need no doctor , excellent He had it still.
@@a.m8878 Dio wasnt necessary deeper than Rob . Its just Dio had lower harmonics when he sang . But try to sing even Rainbow in the dark , Children of the sea .. In full voice . A lot of Dio notes are around B4 . Its not Low ! Its High .. Both were Low tenors , Switching into more Baritonish register around their 50s . But even then , in normal voice , which is very ambiguous to me where Rob was really its really weird , Rob had a lower more baritonish voice than Dio . In 80s for example . In 90s and 2000s , Dio voice obviously became quite lower more close to baritone register if he was in , even he still could do it in singing , and even half step tuning lower , even the children of sea intro still fuckin hard to sing and high . Rob is Full voice as well and mixed But he used Larynx technique for ultra Upper squeal . The other reason to see that Dio is not necessary deeper than Rob , is Rob singing Dio stuff in 1992 , and he s struggling at times . Children of the sea , Neon nights .. Its not that low . Dio s technique is extremely deceiving ... One of that technique is , quite Similar to what Coverdale would do .. Its really gutty rasp stuff with Open throat singing , which gives that Fat tone , with quite Low harmonics . David beign baritone its even.more deceiving . Lady double dealer s deep Purple or come taste the band stuff ( Which is already a foot in Whitesnake in that sense ) even ( on the record , Live it was even higher) lovechild , Lady Luck , Coming homd the fat tone , gutty ballsy tone , it seems accessible , but until you try to sing it this is High .. Very hard to pull it off . Halford had always a Great mid , and gritty low register even growl since 70s , even some dont seem to really notice it , or avoid it . Even he showed more this in 90s .
@@a.m8878 as far technical , Victim of changes , the Ripper , and Especially Dreamer deicever/deceiver is extremely hard to sing .. I mean that one is probably ond of hardest . The Sinner is very hard as well , especially the bridges before the solo where it have " nanana the devil etc.." ( i dont remember the lyrics ) ... And a lot of others .. But the 70s stuff is tough to sing , because its not just the around 6 octaves range he had , its , as the music and drums etc... Priest explored a lot of stuff back then , so the dynamic changes , and the diversty of vocals on phrasing , and also through this insane range Demand is very very Technical.. It demand a lot of skills . Dio is very technical too , but ... just different . I think both are on the same difficulties degree .
Как же Роб выделывался на сцене, задницей вилял... Но дела у него были тогда хреновые, Fight развалился, присты нашли нового голосистого вокалиста, а сам он был на фиг никому не нужен...
Halford with Pantera? What could possibly be more metal than this???

@@jaymzb.1713 yeah thats probably it, but then.... there is nothing more than that , is it? Peace out! ;)
How about 92's Pantera playing "The Ripper" and "Green Manalishi" with King Diamond? that was as metal as this.
There is but 1 man in the world, who can lay claim to the title "metal God." That man, is Rob Halford.
DIO sry......did it longer....and straight
@@matthewrogers6866 OH SNAP!
Meh
Maybe he is a legend, but not the god

Halford sang this song better at 50 years old than in his prime.
Davide Di Paolo its like the 70 year old boxers who brutalize intruders

@@steelin666 that's what i said. He did It Way Better in the British steel anniversary in 2010 than in this video.
@@davidedipaolo8640 even better now, rob halford had some insane shows during the firepower tour.
During the solo you can tell Rob is more than impressed at dimes guitar playing.
Dime starts playing the 1st few notes of the You Got Another Thing Coming solo at the start of his Grinder solo. If you've heard it as much as I have, u will here it 4 sure.

Phil Anselmo wearing a Darkthrone shirt while standing with Rob Halford from Judas Priest. Legendary!!! 🤘
Spoken by a voivod fan🤖
Hell yeah epic
Phil was the biggest supporter of underground metal in Pantera. He was always wearing shirts of bands he loved like Deicide, Exhorder, Darkthrone... etc..
Man... Halford really deserve the title of metal god, he's a killing machine of metal
@Bobbo Beats you are stupid.
@Bobbo Beats yes.
And Stupido.
I saw what you did there.....
"Killing Machine"....
Hehehe......
He is
This is by far the best version of the Grinder. I love Halford and Pantera.. Fucking Rocks!
This must have certainly been a career highlight for Phil. He practically worshipped Rob Halford.
Rob Fuckin' Halford is Metal God
It’s great watching Rob Halford jam with Pantera!!!!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks Phil.. I too agree... Rob Halford is the king of Heavy Metal!!
Did the audience know this was gonna happen? Man, I would've fucking flipped out.
I can't help but wonder if they named the app after this song
right😂 I think you should earn some kind of royalties personally
Grinderrrr.... looking for meat. hahaha I'm totally convinced about that.
I've thought this for years lol

2:17 Dime was taken too soon but moments like this, knowing how much of a hero Halford/Priest were to Dime shows what a full life he lived.
The TWO shirt is awesome, some will know that joke.
I don't get it
As I said XD. Check their watch it go video.
Jeremy Fisher
It's just the name of his, then, industrial side project
Hehe ............... John 5 was so disturbing on one of their vids!
TWO???
At 3:30 he forgot the lyrics : As the mighty eagle
I need room to breathe
Witness from the treadmill
I take my leave
Rob is notoriously bad at remembering lyrics. It's one reason why you so often see him singing bent over - he's reading the lyrics off a monitor...
@@saschaschneider6355 Well you can't blame the guy, Priest has more than 100 songs in their catalog!
@@mjg1312 I was merely stating a fact. No blame whatsoever intended
Phil: one sec ima go take a hit
Erick Thor or maybe piss
Halford T-Rex mode
Rob Halford is the best. No one can match him, in my opinion. But, the chicken strutting was a little strange. lol
masters at work!! (good years..)

More like Joe cocker
Nothing less than EPIC!
Hail to the god of metal. Long life Halford. \m/
Rob s great moves!!!!!!

Halford is the fuckin' man
Fucking is everywhere.
Literally perfect
Love Dime's black tooth grin shirt.
Omg amazing
This fucking kicks ass
There is a bit of a mismatch between the video and the sound.
Fuckin bad ass
it's real simple guys light travels way faster than sound the videos out of syncit's got also got to do with the sound at whatever this particular venue every setup is different remember you're talkin about professionals here
I saw skid row 90ish headlining with pantera rob halford came out and did 4 songs from british steele irvine meadows i think
I want a dimeslime.badass guitar.
Sir. Rob Halford Is 2 Judas Priest What Mr. Jim Morrison Is 2 The Doors!! - M2.H.B. 2016!
Rob always looks strange when not wearing leather on stage.
fucking.awesome!!
Wish the screen was smaller...
Rob was around 46 in this video.
Epic!
I would have died.
mmmm good.
what year was this show?
I'd say more like 1997.
2019
Definitely Rob is better than Dio. Respect!
Piero Mcbrain two different singers. Both greats in its own style. Dio had a bluesy soulful tone Haldford will never have. And dio also had deep tone was a more complex singer than Halford. So your idea of who's better is actually very relative
