Former JUDAS PRIEST Frontman Al Atkins Discusses New Book In Audio Interview
September 9, 2009, 15 years ago
Former JUDAS PRIEST frontman Al Atkins is featured in a new audio interview with Classic Rock Revisited's Ryan Sparks. According to the update "Atkins discusses his new book, Dawn Of The Metal Gods, co-written with author Neil Daniels. Al speaks candidly about the formative years of Judas Priest as they struggled to secure a record deal and break out of their industrial town of Birmingham England in the early 70’s. The book not only gives the reader plenty of unique insight into the genesis of one of the world’s greatest metal bands, it also speaks volumes about the man’s sheer determination to stick with his music career, through thick and thin. While it’s safe to say that he’s had his fair share of ups and downs over the past forty years, he’s in a good place these days with the release of the book and a re-issue of his last solo album Demon Deceiver. He is also preparing material for a debut full length CD with his fantastic new band called HOLY RAGE."
