That day, I was at the Yamaha Building in Ikebukuro, Japan. Suddenly Maiden came to the store and I was surprised. Steve and Paul started a rifle shooting arcade game. Paul abandoned the game and went to the studio. Steve nominated me as his successor. I was nervous and couldn't hit even one shot. The band then wrote an autograph on my denim jacket. They were very cool and nice guys. That is a good memory of 1981.
...good for you....my mate followed there every gig around Australia..and played soccer with them..84 ?
@@cosmicman621 After 1982 who cares
I saw Paul Dianno yesterday singing these tunes in São Paulo-Brasil.
Paul Di'anno and Clive Burr rules
Clives solo was SICKKKKK AF!!!
Brutal, fast, punk, awesome Maiden. This is THE BEST! These live shows with Paul Di'anno are the best Maiden ever did.
Yeah, don't mention punk to Steve Harris. He hates that comparison.
@@mrpositronia yep...i talk to Steve Harris everyday kkkkkkkkk
Paul is unique
No, the best was during the World Slavery Tour. These shows are great and full of power, but are far from their best.
Iron maiden with Paul were the greatest. They’re why we love them still today .
yeah this is way better than alot of Dickinson albums..killers & number of the beast both kick hard
@@GRILLBUOY101 Number of the Beast is a Bruce album
Paul Di'Anno !!! Incredable.... Sings like a LION!!! Di`Anno is a KING !!!
...full stop.BROTHER!!!I grew up as a teenager listening to this stuff...IT WAS..NEVER...CONSIDERED PUNK🤘🤘🤘
Prefer him to Bruuuce. Alll due respect
@@cosmicman621, NWOBHM New wave of British heavy metal
I prefer Paul for the same reason people preferred Greg Rolie in Journey. No-nonsense rock n roll singing, no running and jumping across the stage like they are doing gymnastics routines.
@@cosmicman621No, definitely never considered punk at the time, but undoubtedly punk was an influence. The proof is in the pudding. The rawness, aggression, and energy levels on this era of Maiden betray any anti-punk sentiment Steve may have ever expressed. Paul made it clear several times in interviews that he came from a punk background, and though Clive never really came out and said it, he really had a punk style of drumming to go with his obvious Ian Paice influence. Maybe it was unintentional and indirect, but punk definitely rubbed off on them to a certain extent. At least during the Paul/Clive era it did.
Clive Burr destroying everything on the drums!!!!!
The best.
how fast is he playing on almost all the songs and for such a long setlist :@
This is the best lineup for me.
me too!!!
x4
...of course..a zillion reasons 🤘🤘🤘
It was the best lineup for *THEM* as well.
me to
Clive Burr RIP Brother We miss you
The transition from Strange world to Murders is pure magic. Great how both song merge.
they kicked ass with paul dianno !
“Punk Maiden” rules!
Punk Maiden is the bomb!!! The best!!
Nice bait ! Now more along !
I was listening to this with all my metal buddies in the early 80’s...it was..NEVER..(in a million years) considered..PUNK....NWOBHM..all the way 🤘🤘🤘
In this very narrow moment, the best band in the world
...very true...the magic of heavy metal 🤘🤘🤘
Definitely the best metal band in the world at that time.
I wish this had a video recording.
wish we had more Paul Di'anno albums with maiden!!!!!!!!! :-( he's way better than BD
Yes he is....I love ..Bruce as a dude..and various things that he has done..top bloke...great voice.But...Maiden’s...first 2 albums are the best..of ..NWOBHM...for me...killers....is my bread and butter has been since I was 15 years...discovering rock for the first time 🤘🤘🤘
Yeah, imagine Number of Beast with Paul....way better IMO🤘🤘
The real Maiden!!!!
Clive you live forever
"..please take me away so far away..." Paul's voice is and Will be unforgotable
Have always loved every stage of Maiden, these early days with Paul and Clive are pure Gold! The pure raw power of these songs, Strange world will always be my favorite… UP THE IRONS 🤘
Mix with heavy metal and punk,sounds really awesome.
Paul was the voice and no one could do it better.
Even though this predates the whole “crossover” thing by something like 4 or 5 years, I think this is a much better example of how to mix the two genres properly, and with the right factors. I’m coming from the perspective of someone who was born in the 60’s, grew up on a steady diet of hard rock as a kid in the 70’s, and then dove headfirst into punk at the turn of the decade ‘79-‘80. Back then it was dangerous to like both punk and metal at the same time. The two camps hated each other and would regularly fight violently with each other… which was completely stupid and made very little sense, but that’s just how it was. I went full on punk in the summer of 1980. Cut my hair short, hacked up all my shirts, stencil-sprayed slogans all over my clothes etc, and then I went to go see Iron Maiden open for Judas Priest in the summer of ‘81. I thought for sure I would probably get jumped by a pack of heshers but I didn’t care. I just really wanted to see Maiden. Anyway, no one jumped me. Got a few heckles, but nothing to sweat over. Maiden were even better than I expected, and I also happened to see a few other punks at that show, which was an odd thing to see in 1981 at a big metal concert.
Whether it was their intention or not (my money’s on ‘not’), Maiden were one of the first metal bands to tear down those barriers and unite punks and metalheads. Motörhead was another. Still, we had a long way to go before the truce was called… but Maiden was way ahead of the curve.
Paul Di'anno powerful Voice Clive Burr
Great ever Maiden Japan
Old Maiden steeped in punk rawness. PAUL was fabulous! Have had the Maiden Japan ep import since 1981. It was the 1st vinyl I bought of Maiden, so have always been a fan of Clive Burr and Paul era Maiden. Wherever you are Paul, cheers to you!
RIP Clive, he was better than Nicko, Steve is a a$$hole asking Clive to step away
Still have the Tape cassette , it is yellow color now
@@m42037What Steve did to Clive was inexcusable. He still has never come clean about that. He added insult to injury by smearing Clive’s name in the press, saying that he was fired for “partying too much”, when really it was because Clive chose to attend his own father’s funeral and cancel one or two dates on their tour. Then Maiden gets huge, and Clive is tossed out like yesterday’s garbage. Unforgivable.
@@Shikta-poobah67 And being the humble person Clive was said he didn't argue and said ok and walked away, Clive in a interview said the talks of his "indulgence's" was completely false. I'm a drummer and every live performance I've heard from 80-82 Clive played great not too slow or timing issues. Later Steve did benefits for Clive's MS medical bills, that's the least he could do!

I love Paul’s vocals on “Ive got the fire”
Sounds like Lemmy on that song for sure
saw them open for saxon & ufo that year !
Even after 39 years sounding fresh and vivid. A Blue Print what Heavy Metal is all about for future bands.
Yep. Maiden… and I mean primarily this era of Maiden… was a game changer. I bought Killers right when it came out, and I vividly remember putting it on my turntable (yes I’m a relic) and thinking to myself “this is a whole new kind of metal”. Not only did it sound light years newer than the old guard (Sabbath, Purple, Uriah Heep, UFO, etc), but it sounded even like a departure from most of it’s NWOBHM peers. It set the standard for all 80’s metal to come, though no one ever improved upon it. Not even Iron Maiden themselves.
The real Iron Maiden..
FOR SURE! BEST IRON MAIDEN LINE-UP!
Maiden at his best. Cliff Burr and Di'Anno, punk roots of the band. It Should never had been different.
Clive.
Clive's drumming on this is 👌
25:14 The Best of Maiden's history
Totally agree. This version of Killers is a killer.
Another life... What a track!!!!
Too bad DiAnno left approximately at this point. In this live he was in a perfect shape, his performance is killer !
He was better than the other guy
Yeah I saw them on this tour, maybe a month after this Japanese tour, in Houston TX opening for Judas Priest, and though that was a lifetime ago, I can clearly remember that Paul was in top shape. Whatever was going on after the gig didn’t seem to be affecting their performance, but I only saw the one gig, so who knows. Even Paul himself has admitted he had a bit of a problem at the time. It was really too bad. I would have loved to have heard what Number would have sounded like with Paul singing.
Now Clive… that was a whole different story. What Steve pulled on him was simply unforgivable. Clive got severely f’d over.
maiden japan was released 3 days before i was born :)
The Best Heavy Metal Live album ever
...sure...why not
This isn't the same gig on the record
This isn’t that one, but yes.
I like how you can hear the bass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Saw them open for judas in Boston stoned out of my gord mind blown
I was there, Orpheum theatre
This version of Phantom is blistering.
They sound perfect here… I think the best Maiden ever… I can’t believe they were so colse to the end of the Paul’s eve…
17:40 on. Clive's drumming is nothing short of amazing. He was only 21? Damn the excesses that take our best.
He wasn’t taken by excesses. He was taken by a super-aggressive form of Multiple Sclerosis.
Clive Burr, the best.
I saw Paul Dianno singing these tunes last night in São Paulo-Brazil.
Maiden's best line up.
Masterpiece!!! Best Maiden album. Brutal and raw! A locomotive of sound!
This isn’t the “Maiden Japan” album. It’s from the same tour, probably just one or two nights apart from that one, but different date/gig. This is even better than Maiden Japan, and I absolutely love that album.
Di'Anno Maiden, the best Maiden.
The best live Maiden
J'adore l'énergie des concerts de cette période de Maiden. Ils sont tous jeunes et déjà d'excellents musiciens aux prestations scéniques bien huilées. Phantom of the Opera est vraiment l'une des meilleures compo du groupe
Lo dire en espanhol....estuve a punto de mandar a la mierda todo....pero...Di anno... con harrys,murray,smith,clive burr.....anda caga..... era la mejor banda del mundo!!! y Martin Birch q en paz descanze !!!! jamas escuche tanta energia!!!!
Lo que daría por este concierto completo en video 😢 Es una joya !!!
it's such a shame Di Anno & Burr couldn't hold the job. best period for Maiden.
Saw them open for Judas Priest on the Killers tour.. July 1981, Myrtle Beach, SC. What a show! Small venue.. was maybe 40 ft. from them.. I must say that the first 2 LP's, plus this Live record, was possibly the best debut triple play in Rock history.. right there with Van Halen's first records..
was a small little 12 old an saw van Halen in 81, KISS was one of my first shows in 79 , also saw ABBA round then ... lolmagic times
got number of The beast album signed by IM whole band 82at a WHEREHOUSE record store Metal forevvvvvver 🤘🤘
I saw them on that same tour. June ‘81 in Houston. Humble Pie was also on the bill, but I missed their set. No offense to Halford and co., but Maiden pretty well blew Priest off the stage that night. Don’t get me wrong, Priest were great as always, but Maiden were younger, hungrier, more high-energy, and raw. There was an obvious “old guard/new guard” difference between the two. Then Paul was fired, and shortly afterwards Clive was fired, and they kind of became a different thing. However that night in summer ‘81 they were a real force to be reckoned with.
Phantom is at such a blistering pace!!!!!!! Never heard it this fast!!!!!!
Faster than studio version. Unbelievable!!
THATTTT PACE IS FIRE 🔥
Paul diano que tremenda vos tenia y la banda en vivo era brutal
42 years.... 5/2022. I love Maiden
Great upload, superb sound quality. Thanks for uploading for us. Over 43 years old now and still sounds great! Another life, Innocent Excile & Strange World. Omg. Ive loved them since 1982. Up the Ironsi
great another life was always 1 of my top 3 off killers. another life, drifter, murders in the rue morgue.subject to change of course.
imagine seeing this for just 10 bucks?
This is a different concert it's not the concert pressed on the "Maiden Japan" I had it Paul sounded terrible, this gig he sounds great
@@GRILLBUOY101back in the UK in 1981, you could see them for £5. I don't know what that is in dollars, but live gigs were cheap then 👍😊☮️
@@leethomas255 guess thats cheaper.bout $ 7.50
I would pick Di'Anno over Bruce any day. "Remember tomorrow" and "Phantom of the opera" are my favourite songs of IM, so is the first record.
Long live Paul Di'Anno
Clive is explosive on Murders in the Rue Morgue, my g.o.d. (and then Phantom of the Opera in breakneckspeed)
He also had the coolest hair.
IronPaul . Insuperable !!!!
Paul fantástico
This is Iron Maiden. 👍🏼
Holy shit this is great! Maiden at their absolute pinnacle, as far as I’m concerned. I don’t hate what they did later on, but nothing could touch this lineup at this particular moment in time. I saw them right around this time, about a month later. More on that later. They were young, hungry, focused, and ferocious. Tight as hell, and the energy levels are just through the roof. Perfect marriage of punk rawness and metal chops. This was the new metal sound in the very early 80’s. Just amazing stuff. And Clive…. WOW. Simply the best. RIP.
As an American, I know just exactly how lucky I am that I got to see this lineup at this time, opening for Judas Priest, at the Sam Houston Coliseum - Houston - June ‘81. Humble Pie was the first band to go on, but I missed their set (according to what I heard, I didn’t really miss anything). Maiden blew me the f*** away. Really scorched my face off. At that time I was getting heavily into punk, and in those days being a punk at a metal gig could get you hospitalized. I’m not even kidding. The lines of division were drawn deep before ‘crossover’ became a thing a few years later. However Maiden smashed that barrier down. I wasn’t the only punk at that gig. In fact, this era of Iron Maiden was somewhat of an influence on the more hardcore punk bands… even if Steve Harris claims that he always hated punk and wanted nothing to do with it.
My favourite "Prodigal son" from the Album Killers they never played live....
OMG how fast they do Phantom is crazy bad ass!!!! 🤘🏻
BRUTAL!!!!!!!!!!!
Bruce Dickinson turned this band from an atomic bomb to a spud gun real quick. Never were the same without Paul and Clive
awesome !!! Maiden's fan from the 1st hour still banging !!!!!!!
Paul Di'Anno's Iron Maiden, the ultimate in Punk Metal mayhem. When you have members of parliament complaining about your band in the House of Commons you know you've done something right :) . We'll never see their likes again, far better than the Sex Pistols and I love the Sex Pistols.
my maiden favorito
The original sleeve for Madian Japan was to show Eddie holding
Paul's severed head as dianno had just left.
KILLER RECORDING ARTIST!!!! IRON MAIDEN!!!!!!!!!!
O dianno δεν υπήρξε ποτέ προδότης ποτε
Great Record! Thanks for sharing!
Paul is a true rocker Bruce is a fuckin buisness man do you feel the difference !!!!!
Bruce is both. A Pilot too and a lot of other things. It's ironic that your name is a song with Bruce and not with Paul and you're saying that. Paul and Bruce are both excellent and deserve to be respected. Stop fighting this kind of fandom is toxic. Steve Harris has said in several ocassions that everything is good with Paul and the band, so stop comparing them.
@@NoNameUwUxX If Steve said all is good with Paul why did he fire him and not give him a second chance? And EXPECIALLY Clive!! His father died and Clive wanted time away to be with family and Steve asked him to step away, we got Nicko to take over! I think he was a complete a$$hole back then, today he's different as you know paying for Paul's medical bills, and yes he did benefits for Clive when his MS bills got way more than him and his mum (or sister idr) could afford, hell that's the least he could do after stabbing Clive in the back. Edit: Oh and I don't want to hear the bs rumors about Clive's "indulgence's" , puke bucket nonsense, etc. Clive said it's not true at all. Bruce even said he didn't like the way the Clive thing went down, and that he was the best drummer Maiden ever had. Adrian to this day still lucks Steve's ass and says about Clive that "some guy's can't keep up with the rock n roll lifestyle" sad he was a roommate of his early in the day. Either he's got a bad memory or he doesn't want any bad words about Steve from 30 year's ago
Some songs never heard alive, just for me. Like Innocent Exile, Twilight Zone, Strange World, Murders in the Rue Morgue...I've got the fire....
running free. first single !
Mi formación preferida
The last time to date that Strange World has been played live.
Excelente que poder el de Paul.
This is maiden.
This is gold. Thank you!
El mejor disco de Iron Maiden.
My favorite album
True maiden..up the irins
Bloody Brilliant!
Maiden played 'Strange World' only twice during this tour, but recordings of this song from these two shows are completely the same! There must be some mistake and only one recording exists.
Amazing
saw this tour. they opened for saxon; and UFO... "paramount theater" portland OR.
If also Prowler was in the tracklist it would have been pure perfection..
The pure raw Maiden, before they started writing more 'radio friendly' songs. Don't get me wrong, they have made great songs after Paul left, but this is something else in a better way.
Greatest english band of heavy metal
Iron Maiden reste mon groupe préféré de rock, je suis un fan de ce groupe sans être amateur de rock, hard rock heavy metal etc....j'ai acheté en 86 live after death presque par hasard et depuis je suis fidèle à ce groupe. J'ai connu l'album killer bien tard et il est un de mes favoris, dommage que ce live au Japon le son n'a pas été remastérixé.
Merci du partage et iron for ever maiden
El mejor Iron Maiden para mi gusto...
Too bad there's no live video recording of this perfomance...it will be cool to have the witness of Japanese metalhead witnessing the greatest metal band before Bruce...
Their best songs from that era(80-81).
Pure energy and pure emotion, no pretending at all.
I firmly believe that Maiden of 1980-83 were the best of their whole career
PERFEITO...
awesome
i got 2 see maiden in 82 without paul but they still had clive burr. it was a blast is all i can say
He blows Nicko away the guy was bionic fast! Sad he died so young from MS
@@m42037 yes i plsy lillers way more my 2nd would be piece or the beadt the bew stuff im not into.great concert but ss far ss buying anything new no wsy .Saxon hell yes my fav.priest trest on cd bug mo glenn of kk so.fug dat
they call bruce dickenson the air raid siren; but paul sometimes hits higher notes than bruce.
It deppens on the song. But right now idk if Paul is able to sing. (It's not hate, I say this because is in a post operation and Idk if he is ok to sing).
Paul messed up drinking too much later in this year and was replaced, Clive was "asked to step down" by Steve because Clive's dad died and wanted some time off, Steve said no 👺
@@NoNameUwUxX yah, now he sits on stage with his band; and cranks out old maiden songs knowing he can't sing good; but everyone has a good time !
Paul Di Anno had range. Just sounded way better.
Clive ❤❤❤❤❤
this recital would be the maiden japan vol.5 last recital that they gave at night and broadcast on the radio
