Unleashed in the East is the first live album by the English heavy metal band Judas Priest, released in September 1979 on Columbia Records.
[5] Years later, after he had left Priest, Rob Halford noted in various interviews that the music was indeed live, but that his vocals had been ruined in the original recording and were later dubbed in a concert-like studio setting.
This live version of "Evil Fantasies" had an official CD release on Single Cuts (2011), albeit with a 6-second edit to the start, which trims Halford's chat slightly.
However, the "Take on the World" 12-inch single, released in late 1978, included a live version of "White Heat, Red Hot" recorded at The Agora in Cleveland, Ohio on 9 May 1978 (on the Stained Class Tour).
The Globe and Mail noted that "this absurd piece of bombast was recorded live in Japan and you can pick up every nuance of 120-decibel rock bounding off the audiences' skulls.
