This one song, The Sentinel ..yet to see a song, a performance of one song, that can continually blow me away every time i see it, 30 years after it was performed. Halford just doesn't quit and gives it everything, regardless if you like the style of music or not. What a gig it must have been to have been there.





Even now as then i can still imagine the scene that Halford has set with this song, the power he puts into his words..

The figure stands expressionless
Impassive and alone
Unmoved by this victory
And the seeds of death he's sown

...a shaded faceless, remorseless figure looking over the field of death after a massive and hopeless raging battle where nobody is a winner.




If further proof is required of the awesomeness of Halford and crew one need look no futher than The Hellion and Electric Eye..

Man..what happened to that great BWHOM..we need more for now to drown out the pop that infests.
