Edge of the World is an album created by Judas Priest guitarist Glenn Tipton, featuring outtakes from his solo album Baptizm of Fire. The Who bassist John Entwistle (The Ox) and drummer Cozy Powell, who both died in the years following its recording (Powell 1998, Entwistle 2002), were the session players for those sessions, and are given top billing on this release.[1][2] The album was released on 7 March 2006 by Rhino and WEA.

Background

Consisting of tracks that were not released on Baptizm of Fire, Tipton released the album on March 7, 2006 in memory of Entwistle and Powell. "I'm sure everyone will know," Tipton stated, "this album is a tribute to their unique styles and skills and a small part of the immense legacy they have left behind which will continue to inspire people all over the world for many years to come." Glenn presented the tracks to Rhino/Warners Entertainment and they agreed that this album had to be released. This album was released March 7, 2006 and all proceeds from sales go to the Teenage Cancer Trust.

Reception

Greg Prato of AllMusic called the album, "more melodic than the average Judas Priest release, and one that focuses mostly on Tipton's riffs and Powell's thunderous drumming rather than Entwistle's bass dexterity. Additionally, Tipton's vocals certainly won't be mistaken for Rob Halford's anytime soon, but they're certainly not cringe-worthy, either."[3]
