Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast - LTD 40th…(3LP)

The Number Of The Beast - LTD 40th Anniversary Edition (3LP)

I anledning 40-årsdagen til Iron Maidens überklassiker The Number Of The Beast slippes det en trippel LP-utgave av albumet. Verdt å merke seg er at bandet på denne utgaven har erstattet "Gangland" med "Total Eclipse". Et valg bandet har gjort simpelthen fordi, og her lar vi Steve Harris forklare på sitt morsmål:

"On this vinyl release we get the chance to put "Total Eclipse" in its rightful spot on the album for the first time. The reason it didn’t make it in the first place was that it was all a mad rush when we were finishing the record and we had to get the "Run To The Hills" single out before the tour and we basically had to pick a B-side and it was between Gangland and Total Eclipse and we just picked the wrong one, really! I think Total Eclipse is a stronger song and the album would have been stronger if it had been on there."  

I tillegg til selve albumet er den myteomspunnede konserten fra Hammersmith Odeon i mars 1982, på Beast On The Road-turnéen, med i denne jubileumsutgaven. Dette er første gangen denne konserten er med på noen offisiell Maiden-utgivelse.
