I'm Listening To....

Okay so what do you reckon is a Maiden classic?

To be honest, I don't particularly like the term "classic" as it implies something that can't be disputed, when of course it can.

NOTB gets points off for Gangland and Run To The Hills. Not bad songs but stop it being a personal favourite album of theirs.

I'd rate Iron Maiden, Piece Of Mind, Powerslave, Somewhere In Time, Seventh Son and Dance Of Death higher than NOTB although that's not to say it isn't a great album.

Everyone has different favourite Maiden albums and every single Maiden album has amazing songs on it and that's what makes them a great band.

And not the smartest either. Sold his rights to his Maiden work for £50,000 when he left, snorted it away and now 24 years later earns his crust touring, mostly playing Maiden covers while slagging off everything about them and paying them for the privilege!!

Well, his voice didn't really fit but there are still some great songs on the albums he sang on and he did pull them off better live. Having said that, the difference in quality when Bruce sings those songs now is just quite incredible.

Overall though, it didn't really do Maiden much harm and did Blaze the world of good as he's now doing very well in certain territories and made a clean break from Maiden.

Bruce isn't the most important person in Maiden.

Nicko still has sooty attached to his drumkit at gigs.

Naa....I guess you'd need to give that to Steve Harris seeing as he writes most of the stuff.It's a fair shout to say that you would be hard pushed to beat some of the artwork on Maiden Album covers though.
