      Alexander the Great was a genius, ok, but the song was just some story about some dead dude, and they played music while they told the story, trying to make it sound metal. It wasn't metal.

      I was sort of the same way. But I came to learn two things you can always count on with Iron Maiden:
      1) Iron Maiden will never give less than everything they've got.
      Steve Harris hasn't forgotten all of the work it took to create such a large and dedicated fan base, and he's equally dedicated to it and very protective of it. It translates into every aspect of the band.
      I didn't get to see them until the 7th Son tour and I went into the show knowing maybe three of their songs because my best friend had a cassette of "Live After Death" that he would play now and again and you know what? It didn't matter one lick because the production was so full-on and precisely executed that your eyes didn't have time to rest or get bored.
      Aside from Maiden, I know of only one other performer who could pull off that trick at any show, anywhere in the world, and he's gone now; his ashes in an urn at his studio and his world famous "Cloud" guitar on display at the Smithsonian. I like to think that he and Eddie Van Halen ( whose guitar is on display there as well ) like to get together after hours and "cut heads" once in a while. 🤟😊
      2) Iron Maiden will never insult your intelligence.
      Though they used to get the "Spinal Tap" comparison once in a while back when they really started ramping up the live show, the fact of the matter is that Maiden gave Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer the inspiration to pick up their guitars, write the music for the movie, and go for it full-tilt with no apologies. Would you care to guess what the most successful comedic outing of those three guys
      combined careers just so happens to be? Damn straight.
      No, Bruce and Steve write good lyrics and are capable of telling a compelling story. UP THE IRONS!!!

    Alexander the Great is probably one of the best (unknown) songs of Maiden, and I've been a fan since '84. You sometimes glimpse momentary similarities between some of their albums. For example, To Tame a Land is another great 'unknown' Maiden song. And, these songs could be considered their best.

    As far as music goes I believe Iron Maiden is the closest to actually getting to a higher point of existence. Every night, every tour for decades has kept the same amazing feel. Now in 2019 they are better than ever. Truly an amazing inspiring bunch of human beings. All with basically zero promotion. This is what humans can do all by themselves. I was an original fan club member from the eighties and they're still just as exciting to me. They've always been in contact with their fans way way before the internet made that easy. Never sell out. Every other huge band has and you can go see them today and they all can barely play and charge 2 Grand a ticket it's really a shame. Every human should see Iron Maiden at least once it'll change your whole idea of what's possible.

Then Bruce came back to the front of the stage and pointed at the guy ---the crowd had grabbed him and started pounding on him---Bruce told the crowd to bring him onstage so he could---"YOU!! I`LL RIP YOUR FUCKIN HEAD OFF !!!!-Security intervened and Bruce gathered himself,and they finished the whole gig. Amazing memory.

      Most people would agree that SiT is one of the best, but among the 80s albums, it's probably the 2nd or 3rd most underrated (Other than Killers and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. Btw SSoaSS is my favourite Maiden album and SiT is my 3rd. 2nd is Powerslave in case you're wondering.

    Watching this part, especially the second half of it, I feel so sad for Adrian. The poor guy was right about the tempos. I do love Maiden England so much but thanks to the wild tempo, Bruce is almost chocking on some of those songs. Then we get Nicko defensively admitting it with a laugh. A year later Adrian was kinda forced to leave. Also Bruce is still bashing a magnificent album (Somewhere in Time). Maybe because his ideas weren't accepted? This is just so sad IMO.

    The first time I ever pressed record on a tape deck was "Number of the Beast" off the local rock station. Maiden was something other than a band. It was the Universe at its peak focus spitting its best light out to a generation with the blackest holes for ears. I think every Hard Rock/Metal Guitarist should learn Steve Harris' bass lines & patterns/shapes as well as the guitar parts. Quite the library of what makes Rock/Metal tick!

Can't wat for the next chapter, I consider the 90's maiden way more interesting than 80's maiden, all they went thru: lineup changes, being relevant even thou the music in that period of time were going thru big changes and metal was down under in people's taste... What I mean is that the 90's got all the ingredients to produce an outstanding film production and probably the best of the series.

    Perhaps the mood of transition is what I loved about Somewhere in Time. Synths were well established by the time of Seventh Son, but they were still a gamble on Somewhere in Time. The sound, the cover and last but not least the fantastic songwriting make it one of the band's two favorite albums. The other is Piece of Mind, which is also totally underrated.
