Phantom of the Opera was always a favorite with my band. Easy? Depends.

The Prisoner, 22 Acacia Avenue, Trooper, Number of the Beast. Killers, so many good songs. Maiden is my favorite band. Easy? how about Flight of Icarus or Iron Maiden, about as easy as Steve gets

Learn them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think I let a day go bye without playing at least 3 or 4 Maiden songs. They're great for warming up your right hand (if you're a righty).

Phantom and Killers are great for building up your right hand stamina.

Read the whole Elric series (even the seventh one!) when I was a teen. Wasn't Stormbringer a big song by someone?

BOC had the Song "Black Blade" and the killer BOC song "Veteran of the Psychic Wars" was co-written by Michael Moorcock. I love that song, did even before I knew who Michael Moorcock was (the song was featured in the Heavy Metal soundtrack).

Other notable nods, Hawkwind, and Tygers of Pan Tang. Probably more out there, but those are the ones I know.

you learn one, you learn em all

tabs: 333-333-333-333-777-777-777-777-555-555-555-555-etc,etc




........On a serious note, "Purgatory" off of Killers is a great song to learn and is often overlooked as one of their best songs, imo ofcourse.


before i get flamed, i have been listening to maiden since i was in 8th grade.
