Nah! Not sure if this is the case with you SoP, but it is just so typical nonesense to slam the Blaze era.
Maybe not Maiden at their very best, but FAR FAR from beeing crap!!!

I just hate Blaze's voice.... the man is an inadequate singer and killed the songs on the albums he sang on. If Bruce had sung these songs they would have been a lot better. Then again, the songs they wrote when Blaze was in the band weren't exactly the best they ever did either. Live Blaze embarassed himself more than once. It might be typical to slam the era in which he sang for Maiden but I just don't like his voice.... I know people who do like his work with Maiden.... I am one of the many who can't stand him.

Iron Maiden is my all time favorite band ever since I saw the music video for Be Quick Or Be Dead. In order of favorite to least favorite:

Seventh Son
Somewhere In Time
Fear Of The Dark (my first)
Powerslave
Piece Of Mind
Dance Of Death
Number Of The Beast
Killers
Brave New World
No Prayer For The Dying
X-Factor (the music not the vocals)
Iron Maiden (I know its a classic but I'm being honest here)
A Matter Of Life And Death (taking time to grow on me)
Virtual XI

My fave album is right now PIECE OF MIND but i also love FEAR OF THE DARK(my fave of the 90s) and IRON MAIDEN very very much. To be honest, i love all their 80s albums and A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH.

I love A Matter of Life & Death - one of my top 3 right now (Piece Of Mind still my all time favorite Maiden), All tracks are great!

I am a Matter of Life fan (more so than most) it's just that I have not listened to it as much as I need to. Understand that I am BIG Maiden fan (all the studio albums, Live After Death, Rock In Rio, Real Live/Dead One, Death On the Road, Best Of The Beast, the biography, and 10 t-shirts [7 currently because I lost one, left another in a hotel some years ago, and one of them ruined after 15 years of weekly use]) so to have A Matter Of Life and Death above Virtual XI in my list speaks words about it's quality to me.

Iron Maiden!!!! My Fav!!!!!

yeah, Maiden is my fav. I like others, but none maych up to the metal power of the irons. Yeah, I am new here, and please be welcome to tell me of others. I'm always wanting to know more bands, and music.

seventh is my fav because the story line.

I love Seventh Son, For me Number of the Beast is my fav...Also was the first tour I saw them on... At LONG BEACH!!!!!

I was glad they played the whole album when I saw them last year - it sounded awesome live. Plus, I'll get all the classics on the next tour

BLAZE RAWKS

Blaze isn't a BAD singer, he was just not well suited for Iron Maiden.

I never thought Blaze Sucked . . . The maiden albums with him singing, were still quite good...

The X Facor is one of my fav maiden albums

i listen to that more than the latter dickinson ones

Piece of Mind fan here! But almost Iron Maiden albums have that special spark within!

Everybody in the world loves Maiden. Or at least they should.

Bump

Didnot want to start a new Iron Maiden thread:

Thanks to all of those who attended the recent Clive Aid shows, former Iron Maiden drummer Clive Burr has been able to afford a brand new wheelchair and we have the shots inside.
Classic Rock has been sent this photograph of former Iron Maiden drummer Clive Burr in his brand new wheelchair. The wheelchair was bought from the proceeds of a recent pair of Clive Aid benefit gigs staged at the Ruskin Arms in East London last November. Acts that played this weekend-long show included Cloven Hoof, Marshall Law, Elixir and Tokyo Blade.
Burr, who is suffering from multiple sclerosis, would like to thank everyone who attended the Ruskin shows, organised by Clive Aid. “The new chair makes Clive’s life a lot more comfortable,” says his partner Mimi of the newly acquired Easy Mobility model. “Its value to him is immense.”
