“Jugulator” and “Demolition” Judas Priest’s Tim ”Ripper” Owens era albums seems that are not available on the major streaming services. In an interview with 94.3 The Shark radio station, former Judas Priest guitarist, K.K. Downing was asked about the two albums of the band’s Tim ”Ripper” era and why these are not available on the streaming services:
“Yeah, it’s a little bit of a mystery, really. Obviously, I no longer have any control over those records, but I don’t think that it’s a label thing ’cause labels always like to sell records, don’t they?
”And, obviously, myself and Ripper, we’re still very proud of everything that we’ve done as a part of our history and legacy, and we’d very much like to see the records out there in the stores once more. So, hopefully, we’ll see that come to fruition.
”But the good news is that this band KK’S Priest will be out there playing those songs throughout this year, so everyone is welcome to come down and experience those magical times that we now refer to as the ‘Ripper era’ or the ‘Ripper years.’
”And, yeah, so everyone can enjoy those songs again in a live format, which, in a lot of ways, is even better. But let’s hope the records will appear at some point.”
