Judas Priest
Long Beach Arena
Long Beach, California
May 24, 1981
World Wide Blitz Tour

Here's another old Priest show laying around that, to me, stood to benefit from a little attention.  This one was transferred from a low gen tape, and shared as such, but the speed was way off, and the levels were a bit low.  This version, first shared today, addresses these issues.  Although some might call this a "remaster," I do not:  to me, remastering implies doing something more substantive to the recording itself, like EQ, noise reduction, etc., all of which are highly subjective.  My modest efforts here are more objective:  merely correcting the speed and boosting the levels, and nothing else.  So call it what you will, just enjoy the show.  All credit and thanks to the original taper.
