JUDAS PRIEST: HELL-BENT FOR EAGLE SCOUT-HOOD?
I’m sitting in the bar of the Marriott Pavilion Hotel in downtown St. Louis. It’s—what?—about 2 a m. With me are Rob Halford and K.K. Downing of Judas Priest. I am not dreaming. We are having an amicable conversation. I am not dreaming. I thought their show was damned good. I am not dreaming.

"We couldn't sdo this if we were on drugs. -Glenn Tipton
AUGUST '81-Judas Priest fans from Boise to Boogie have doubtlessly been thrilled with CREEM's far-reaching coverage of their fave band, and with good reason! We've put 'em on the cover lots of times just because we like the way they look! Come with us, then, as chemist/writer J. Kordosh asks significant ques-tions no one else but his extremely young son would even think of! Though it's disappointing that the "big" question-where did he get that hat?-never arises, big deal! Life's like that!

I ask Halford if he feels embittered by criticisms that have been levied against Judas Priest. -Straightforward stuff like: “They’re a bunch of creeps.”
