This is a live mock up of Judas Priest's, The Hellion - Electric Eye. My friend Jim Miller (7th) sang the vocals and I played the guitars and bass as well as the production. I think I'm really getting the hang of this production thing. The interesting thing about this is during the production, I read Goerge Orwell's, Nineteen-Eighty-Four, which this song is about. Finally, the lyrics make sense though I didn't find out the song was about the book until I tried to find out how to make the vocals sound like the record. Obviously, I couldn't figure out how they did it. The interesting thing for me was I had heard people say that Orwell's writing was "prophetic", which I would argue against. I think it's more a "Star Trek effect", where the technology was imagined before it came to fruition though Orwell had no way to conceive of the amount of surveillance we live in today.
 
Camments are welcome and enjoy!
 
The Hellion - Electric Eye

THIS IS FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!!!  Wow, you no doubt are getting the hang of this production stuff!
 
WOW MAN!!!! This is really good! 
 
Just a request, you should do "You've Got Another Thing Coming". 

Enjoyed hearing this one, I'm no mix master, I've got tons to learn myself, but this sounds really great to my ears. 
 Great playing all the way around on this one!!!! 
 
Thanks for sharing!!!
 

Robert,
 
Great job.    I don't know the live version but in the studio version they use some harmonizer on the lead vocals.   It added some weird robotic harmonies underneath Halford's LV part.   It comes in after the section, "Up there in space.... ....everything you do."
 
Would like to hear some more of the kick/snare drums and bass coming forward.    I think the drummer had some double kick going in this song.  Really helped drive it.  Guitars sound great.  Vocals are really good....   Awesome job.

Regards

Nice one! One of my favs.

Sounds just like a live JP recording. All I can say is, you nailed it.

Not one for JP so I have no knowledge of the original but this does have a live feel. As noted above could do with a little more bottom end weight in the kit, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for checking it out everyone!
 
I've been listening to music on my monitors for quite a while now and it seems that the bass and kick run the gammit of more, or less, than where I have them. I guess it depends on what you listen to and by whom. the interesting thing is, I tried just a bit more of the bass and kick but it threw the mix off, to my ears anyway.
 
Thanks again!

Nice stuff.  Well done cover.. sounds great on my headphones

Great job! Great song from my favorite Priest album.

Found myself smiling through this one.... it does sound like a live JP concert.   I don't really know the original version well but this sure sounds pretty @#%$ good to me!   The guitars were big yet have good clarity, and the vocals peek through enough to always be heard.  Even in a live setting with the audience screaming.
