With Sad Wings of Destiny, Judas Priest found the sound that would define 1980s heavy metal: the twin lead guitars of Glenn Tipton and K.K. Downing and Rob Halford's high, theatrical voice. The band's second album opens with the epic Victim of Changes and also features The Ripper, Tyrant and Dreamer Deceiver. Patrick Woodroffe's fallen-angel cover became an emblem of the band. The album dates from 1976 and came out on Gull Records at the time.

This edition is a CD.
