5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have for ANY Maiden Fan!!!, October 24, 2001

By	Albert Rodriguez "arodz21" (San Antonio, Texas USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This was released in 1987, just after the Somewhere in Time album. So all of the information is somewhat dated, however, this is by far and away the best video Maiden has ever produced. If you just liked Maiden and didn't know too much about them, or you hate reading books and want to know about Maiden's history, this is THE video. Rare footage from early gigs at the Ruskin Arms and The Marquee. Interviews with all band memebers and some even ex-singer Paul Di'Anno. Early concert footage from Beast on the Road tour, World Peace tour and World Slavery tour. A small snipit from Somewhere on Tour. A very rare video of "Women in Uniform", the first Maiden single. Tons of inverviews with road crew, managers, and club owners. You can't find a more difintive Maiden docu anywhere. I was lucky enough to buy it when it first came out in '87, and now it's out of print. If you get the chance to get a copy,
GRAB IT!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars SCREAM FOR ME IRON MAIDEN, October 12, 1999

By	Annette Brandon ([e-mail]) (U.S.A.) - See all my reviews

This video is exiting to watch, you would never get bored with it. Some things that are totally over the top is listening to the interviews of each member. Steve talks more than Bruce, Dave, Adrian & Nicko. Steve basically discusses what happened in Maiden's early days, how a record company got interested in them, going up to Cambridge & recording I think 4 songs Maiden had arranged, about getting snowed in with no place to stay while they were in Cambridge. When Adrian joined, Steve said Adrian couldn't decide whether to join or not, so Steve said "well we've decided for you, you're in". Dave talks about playing at the Marquee Club in England seeing the crowds reaction when Maiden were performing. Bruce discusses his interview with Rod Smallwood. Adrian talks about him & Dave playing together in bands before they joined Maiden. And Nicko talks about how he first got started with Maiden. Of course, a lot of their road crew is interesting to listen to their stories. One of them talks about how the song The Number of the Beast came about. And needless to say, Maiden's songs are their best, performances are fabulous. The Number of the Beast, Running Free & The Trooper come from Live After Death. Wasted Years show the members goofing around playing different instruments, except Adrian. It's definately a video to add excitement in the Iron Maiden Archives. But, when you think about it, Iron Maiden adds excitement anytime they step on the stage, being interviewed or whatever is taking place.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Maiden Video Ever, September 13, 1999

By A Customer

This has to be the best Maiden Video ever. This video has rare footage, from their days at the, Ruskin Arms to concert footage from, The Beast On the Road, Dickinson is in perfect form on all the footage from that show in Hammersmith (Murders in the Rue Morgue, Children of the Damned, Total Eclipse)Those of you who have heard, Live Afrer Death, know what I'm talking about. They also show them killing Eddie on the last night of the, World Piece Tour, in Buddapest. There is some footage from, Somwhere On The Road, but that's just more interviews than anything else. Their are interviews with all their road crew and Derek Riggs, the artist who drew all the covers from Iron Maiden to, A Real Dead One (Exculding Fear Of The Dark) If you can get you hands on this video, you definitely get it, you won't be sorry.
