Probably one of the most underrated metal guitar players of all time. But I think he never wanted that kind of attention because he wanted to put the Judas Priest concept as a whole and as a band first. By the same token I gotta say.. That solo he plays on Painkiller the song.... Makes the top ten of the greatest guitar solos of all time on my list.
You should read what KK says in his book about Glenn. He claims that Glenn most definetely did want to be seen as the main guitarist in JP, and specifically tailored the songs to showcase his (obvious) talents.
@@Mad_Axe_Man125 and? This fact changes Nothing. Still be de greatest heavy metal player in the greatest heavy metal band born in the world up to today. In fact, that coment maybe the real cause of judas priest, so, HAIL GLENN TIPTON. As a musician KK is less than a half of glenn, like it or not, as simple as that.
This news broke my heart too. Glenn is one of my musical idols. God Bless you Glenn and your family.
Glenn waa the perfect metal guitarist he had the look the stance the style everything about this legend was perfect.
jdl 68 definitely the ENTIRE package! ❤️
Glenn was diagnosed with Parkinsons 10 years ago thats how well he hid it. He may come out to play on occasion. Its a sad day especially in Florida.
He and Adrian Smith from Maiden had a rhythmically syncopated approach to soloing that I just loved. I also took great influence from Tipton's use of dissonance within perfectly syncopated rhythms inside of his solos. The Turbo Lover solo is a favourite of mine for that reason.
I like how he says "just a quick story" almost like he feels like his stories are always too long..but his stories are actualy interesting
Glen is one of the top 3 axes in Metal Music today! God Bless Glen Tipton as he deals with this unfortunate situation.
This sucks, all my heros are retiring, passing away or diagnosed with something.
Eddie I know, it’s a bitter pill to swallow. It fucking sucks.
yep us gen x'ers are getting old, most of our heroes are baby boomers......... aging is awful.
Mike Price I saw the Defenders tour too. I saw them in San Francisco with a band called Kick Axe. Priest was phenomenal. Rob Halford was hitting ear splitting notes unlike anything I have heard before or since then, except for other Priest concerts. My ears rang for three days after that show. I will never forget it.🤘🏻
Mike Price You and I are cut from the same cloth. Screaming for Vengeance was the first thing I had ever heard from Priest. From that day forward, Priest was in my blood. Did not see the Screaming tour, but that album made me metal.
Fast forward about ten years later, around the time Painkiller came out. I was living in Phoenix at the time. I heard rumor that Halford was going to be appearing at a small rock bar called the Mason Jar. I got my ass down there , got right next to the stage and sure enough, there he was. Mere feet away was the metal god himself. He and his backing band played about a dozen Priest songs, opening with Solar Angel. Once in a life time experience. Those were the days . I may be getting older but metal is in my blood as much as it ever was. I went and saw The Last in Line a few days ago. Dio’s old band with Vivian Cambell and Vinny Appice. Fucking rock legends in a small rock bar playing classic Dio songs. It was loud as hell and kicked ass. I felt like a kid again!! I even got a fist bump from Vinny!
Mike Price Where did you find that old tour information? I want to check it out.
I was listening to Glenn Tipton's solo album "Edge of the World " (2006) and then I suddenly got this loudwire's notification !!! \m/
Glenn is the greatest guitarist of all time
God bless you glenn hope you're well if there is a god he will cure you !! As you're inspiration to so many will surely be unsurpassed a legend you are my friend !!!!!!
As a 70s rocker it is very sad when our musical heroes pass. But we have the memories of their music and they live on and keep the flame alive. An unforgettable era of music. Best wishes to Glenn Tipton & family.
Wishing the best to Glenn.
I love how so many rock stars stories about seeing JP when they were kids are all about sneaking into shows, thats awesome. Check out my GLENN TIPTON TRIBUTE and JOIN IN!!! This tribute is open to any musicians or fans who want to help me make a GT compilation
Glenn was my favorite of the duo not having KK I could live with but no Tipton is real hard sell for me moving forward
it was no sell for me once KK left
GrayWoIf game over man ... fuckin game over !!!! KK & Glenn forever.
There is no moving forward! Other than supporting the album and completing the obligations for the tour. Looks like the album is going to be damn good.So I get it, finish it up, be proud of the album, make some $ on tour and CALL IT A DAY the moment you're done with the tour commitments.
I love Tiptons classicial solos. Reminds me of Malmsteen, KK and Richie are also good but Glenn just kills it
Just seen him last night in Tulsa so he hasn't quit yet
My first Judas Priest concert was Hell Bent For Leather/Killing Machine tour and I haven't stopped since. Took my oldest son to his first Judas Priest concert, Firepower cause he took me to the last G3 V.I.P tour. We love and will always support you Glenn. I also support K.K.'s Priest as well.
one of the greatest metal guitarist, glen tipton...
🤘🤙😎😎😎...Glenn is the man !!!...
This is the same way I felt. It shocked me in a way that surprised me.
I’m pretty upset about this news. I’m seeing Judas Priest for the very FIRST TIME (!!!) very soon (never had the chance before!), and it won’t be the same seeing them without him.
Hey, you "might" see him. He's stated that he might play random shows during the tour, so if you get lucky you "might" be able to see Tipton.
Im seeing them soon too. Hope hes there
Ritean Dan He'll be on tour with them and may play simpler songs like Breaking the Law or Living after Midnight if he feels well.
Sucks you never got to see Glenn n KK, nothing is better than that..NOTHING
I'm glad I got to see them with both KK and Glenn in 2005. I hope you'll get to attend one of the shows where Glenn participates.
Very sad to hear about Glenn! It really sucks! Very underrated musician!
"Hey John, thanks for coming here today. So, Glenn has parkinson's. What are you feeling right now?" Wasn't this kinda weird lol
Merch man mike is one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met. Really everyone on the creatures tours are awesome people.
He is such a nice guy.
Yes thank you! I really like john 5.
Just to put it in perspective he was diagnosed with Parkinsons in 2008, not this week. That and he's 70 odd years old. As people age shit happens.
Nickhead87 Yeah, that's been irking me too. To be fair, the band's official statement did begin with "GLENN TIPTON DIAGNOSED WITH PARKINSONS DISEASE" so you can see why all these news sources are rolling with that kind of headline
But..but...but... these are METAL GODS... not simply mere mortals!!!
Didn't know he had it that long.
Funky Monkey1886 Your right ~~
right? the real issue here is that hobbit 5 is pretending to be shocked at such shocking news.
Glenn was diagnosed with Parkinson's a long time ago, it just that now he feels it is affecting him so much he can't continue in Priest. Honestly, I'm sad. Kk and Glenn is what made Priest for me. Sure rob is a cool guy, the metal god, and Ian is the guy who started the band, but kk and Glenn's twin guitar attack is what made the band for me. Kk with his bluesy style, Glenn with his more classical style. For me, Judas Priest won't be the same anymore. I'll always listen to their old records but the new stuff, meh. Nothing against the band, just that my 2 favorite members personally, I'd rather have the old band with ripper Owens singing than the new band with rob singing but no kk or glenn
Barry McNicholl Agree 100%. It was a swift kick in the nuts when KK left, but now that Glen is gone, it’s absolutely not Priest any longer. When you loose two iconic guys like Downing and Tipton, the essence of the band is gone. Too bad as I am a huge Priest guy. Like you said, their new stuff is meh. The songs have no personality or character. It’s just not there anymore.
Wow....The Look on his face when he finds out.... Threw him off you can tell. He couldn't concentrate on anything that was coming out of the interviewers mouth. He just wanted to leave....
I still think these two are brothers. The likeness is uncanny. #halloween2018
How old is this guy? I was a 1 year old when he was sneaking out to see the Judas Priest show and he looks way younger than me.
46
5 th grader on a bus to Detroit to see Priest
Exactly, I think he has his years mixed up.
Long live glen! One of the greatest metal guitarist of all time!
One of my heroes falls again sadly chose to sell my tickets for April's concert... fuck I'm getting old
No Motorhead... No Slayer ... No Black Sabbath.... there is no way you can be Judas Priest without the original twin guitarists... so no more Judas Priest either .... Sad times ahead ....
Count me out .... I'm extremely down about this and was going to be my first time seeing priest live . No KK or Glenn
John looks like a michigander, surprised i didn't knoww that
John5 is the fucking man
Am I the only one that kept thinking that John 5 and the interviewer sound and look a bit similar?...
Well that sucks about Tipton.
We found Carmen Sandiego
Check out my GLENN TIPTON TRIBUTE and JOIN IN!!! This tribute is open to any musicians or fans who want to help me make a GT compilation
Now is what John 5 thinks? Jajajajajaja
He is 45 and went to a Priest Show in 83? Of course he did!
Bigstep uk that wouldve made him 10 yrs old dont know about you but if i disapeared till well after midnight at 10 yrs old my parents wouldve flipped their shit. kinda have a hard time buying that story
Yes it is Total Bull he probably hasn't even been to a Priest Show and his reaction to Glenn's illness was well rehearsed and acted! ''Loudwire'' Channel think we came down with yesterdays rain!
John doesn't seem like he's that familiar with Priest.
ahahah graham the l0ser loll
Firepower Tour = For me disappointment. Cant watch it, OR ANY OF THE LIVE VIDEOS. *love the album DON'T GET ME WRONG.* Glenn = just stop.
Hey Johnny Dep whats up?
Are you ready for some Judas Priest STYLE heavy metal?....Judas Priest will live on with new members for another 50 years...Or not...Good idea I reckon ;)
and the point of this was???
john is a cool guy period , ps I hate foxy foxy by zombie but I'll let it slide.
Bring in KK Downing!
Glenn is Massive. Priest is done.
I'm sad af
Why does he call himself John 5?
Get rid of the outtro music and change it up
John 5 > Buckethead
Sorry...but i can't conceive Priest without KK...but...without Glenn, too.............................what remains?...........
BeyondtheVeil Of Death Ritchie!! That's who... stop the disrespect and give him a chance. He's been awesome these two albums, and he's faithfully carrying the Priest torch for us! So that it can continue, and I'd much rather have that then see it come to an end before it has to!!
the Memory remains............
I must say I love the flying hats band more then judas priest but regardless still sad to hear.
Sure was a high school reject. Tattoos shows someone you wanna be not the person you are lol
Hey it's the guitarist of the short lived band *Loser*
John 5?? Bwahahaha Bwahahaha Bwahahaha Bwahahaha Bwahahaha Bwahahaha. Is that a character from Satan's book ?
Hes def. lucefarian
He hasn't influenced Millions.
Yes he has. Priest were at the forefront of metal and helped bring it to the masses. Just British Steel alone , spearheading NWOBHM, was seen as the template for metal that spread around the world.
@@vsixx4330 : NWOBHM, those were the days: Priest, Maiden, Saxon, etc.
Who? This guy is a nobody.
Never heard about This Place Is Death either.
Rob Zombie... Marylin Manson... Never heard of these no-name bands either
Infra not surprised
if you don't know him you should listen to black widow of la porte, an amazing song by him
Jeezy Frankie jeez he played for those mediocre bands, no wonder I've never heard of him. He plays garbage.
