Judas Priest’s Live In Atlanta ’82, previously only available on CD as part of the 50 Heavy Metal Years Of Music boxset, was released as a double LP solid red vinyl set for Record Store Day 2025. The album was recorded at the Atlanta stop of their World Vengeance tour, at the Omni, on December 11, 1982.
Forbes Senior Contributor, Hugh McIntyre, is reporting that Judas Priest is back on the charts in the United Kingdom at the moment with Live In Atlanta ’82.
Judas Priest returns to the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart in the UK with Live In Atlanta ’82. The project blasts onto the ranking at #13 on the genre-specific roster that only tracks the bestselling titles in rock and metal across the nation.
Including Live In Atlanta ’82, Judas Priest now claims 16 total appearances on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart. It’s the band’s second new win of 2025 alone. Just a few months back in February, Rocka Rolla reentered the conversation when it was reissued and made available again. That full-length originally arrived in 1974, and while it wasn’t new by any stretch, it was new to the UK-based list, as fans of the group sent it to #7, though it did disappear just one frame after arriving inside the Top 10.
