“Through several decades, #RockHall2022 Inductee Judas Priest has proven that heavy metal is an art form and consists of a community where all are welcome,” says the Rock Hall. “Take a closer look in this next episode of Inductee Insights.”
The UK band were honored by the Rock Hall last November with the Musical Excellence Award, which is given to artists, musicians, songwriters and producers whose originality and influence creating music have had a dramatic impact on music.
Inducted were current members Rob Halford, bassist Ian Hill, guitarist Glenn Tipton and drummer Scott Travis, along with former members K.K. Downing (guitar), Les Binks (drums) and late drummer Dave Holland.
Downing, Binks, and current guitarist Richie Faulkner joined the band on stage for a medley performance of classic tracks “You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’,” “Breaking The Law,” and “Living After Midnight.”
Seven acts were honored in the performer category at the 2022 induction ceremony, including Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo, Duran Duran, Eminem, Eurythmics, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie and Carly Simon.
