Sign in to disble this ad
I just bought Iron Maiden's '85 live album 'Live After Death'. This is the best live album I've ever heard, probably my favourite Maiden album. It's a great set-list too, they do some great classics. Just a great album. I haven't checked out the enhanced part of the CD yet, but I'm sure it'll be great. So anyone else agree that this is an amazing CD? Well, just thought I'd share (I'm bored). 
Peace,

Wow... I envy you! I wish I could play a full set of Rush tunes (not to mention Maiden!)
Although I haven't heard Live After Death. Rock in Rio kinda turned me off hearing Maiden live...  |

| | | Don't let it turn you off. This CD is actually amazing. I thought the mix on 'Rock In Rio' sucked, but on 'Live After Death' it's great. And there's no Blaze Bayley era songs to be found. It's all of their classic stuff. They even do 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner'. You wont be dissapointed.
Peace,

I'm getting Rock in Rio soon...still haven't seen it all yet...please don't stone me!!!  |

(With the Scorpions! and 2 other lame bands that will remain nameless..Day On The Green) Man I feel old.....I have the Gatefold 2 x LP version of Live After Death with the booklet! One of my all time favorites.
Steve Harris is the man.
