Rocka Rolla is the debut studio album by British heavy metal band Judas Priest, released in 1974. The album is notable for its early sound, which blends elements of hard rock and progressive rock, showcasing the band's initial foray into the heavy metal genre. It features a mix of original compositions and a cover of the Fleetwood Mac song 'Green Manalishi (With the Two Prong Crown).' Though it received mixed reviews upon release, it has since been recognized for its influence on the heavy metal genre and for laying the groundwork for the band's later, more polished sound.
