Point of Entry is a heavy metal album from the band Judas Priest. It was released on February 26, 1981 . In 1980 Judas Priest garnered some airplay with "Breaking the Law" and "Living After Midnight" from their album British Steel. As a result the band pursued a more radio friendly direction on Point of Entry. The more blatant commercial direction alienated some longtime listeners. The album was remastered in 2001, with two bonus tracks added. While most fans considered it bland to their previous British Steel album, It still was a classic among their albums, With 3 singles to go with it. Heading Out To The Highway, Don't Go & Hot Rockin' were their best tracks off of this album for they performed Heading Out To The Highway up until their "Priest...Live!" album. & "Hot Rockin'" is still performed today.
