101 - Judas Priest Dreamer Deceiver 1976

"Sad Wings of Destiny" has to be one of the most influential Metal records in history. After a lackluster debut with "Rocka Rolla", the band changed drummers and redefined their sound from bluesy quasi-psychedelia to molten gothic heavy metal. Judas Priest created a formidible document of powerful songwriting and instrumental skullcrushing.
This song gains its excellency through the deep, melodically riffs and the always great vocals of Rob Halford. Furthermore, the lyrics provide another artistic aspect to the song, very similar to "Stairway to Heaven". Dreamer Deceiver is one the greatest metal ballads ever.
