Judas Priest: That Time The Beatles' John Lennon Was On The TV, and It Was Very Weird
Judas Priest members Glenn Tipton and Rob Halford spoke in an interview with Metal Hammer. They talked about how they created “Living After Midnight” from 80’s British Steel album.
Glenn Tipton said:
“We had gone into Tittenhurst Park, the home of Ringo Starr, who had bought it from John Lennon, after a previous attempt at another studio, and with only half of its songs written. Until that point, we’d never worked that way before.
“I’ll always recall that 1980 was a great summer, and being in such an inspirational surrounding definitely rubbed off on us. What came out was a set of very simple yet effective songs that, I’d like to think, helped to shape what else was going on [in heavy rock music] at the time.
