HALFORD AND SKID ROW, DELIVERIN’ THE GOODS

Friday, June 12th, 2009 at 3:00pm by

Steve Stamopoulos sent us this video of Rob Halford performing the Judas Priest classic “Delivering the Goods” with Skid Row on MTV. I remember watching this when it first aired, on whatever MTV’s equivalent of TRL was back in the day. The show was hosted by future ex-The Panic Channel vocalist, Steve Isaacs, who was maybe the last (only) cool VJ in the channel’s history.

There’s a studio version of this on the Skids’ most forgettable covers EP, B-Side Ourselves. It’s fun to watch this video, though, ’cause a) the song rocks and b) Halford is dressed like trailer trash.

    I think what you should have said was:
    “It’s fun to watch because: Look how much Rob wants to be Phil Anselmo”

    Holy shit…Rob looks fucking hilarious! He’s acting funny too. He really WAS trying to be Phil Anselmo…Good song though, Skid Row do a fine job with it.
