Iron Maiden The Number of the Beast |
I always have trouble picking out my favorite Maiden album. But for the sake of it, it is probably the original classic the Number of the Beast. Insert Bruce Dickinson, and Maiden matures, reaches their full potential as songwriters and creates their classic sound. Hallowed Be Thy Name remains their greatest masterpiece and signature song IMO. The classic Maiden songs in the public eye, Run to the Hills and Number of the Beast, are great songs to boot. Other highlights include: Children of the Damned and The Prisoner |
Iron Maiden Iron Maiden |
Although its not what you would consider classic Maiden Steve Harris and co. show their strengths as songwriters with a unique, impressive and hard rocking album. Not a bad effort on the album. From the rockers Prowler, Iron Maiden, Sanctuary to the mellower Strange World, and the jems Phantom of the Opera and Transylvania its a young Maiden at its best. |

Big Country Peace in Our Time |
Big Country Steeltown |
Coming off their successful debut, Big Country releases "Steeltown" which goes straight to #1 in the UK. In a slightly more heavy sound It is a classic Big Country Record. With strong tacks throughout the album it highlights include: Flame of the West, East of Eden, Steeltown, Where the Rose is Sown, Tall Ships Go, and Just A Shadow |
Big Country The Seer |
The third of the 4 classic Big County Albums, The Seer delivers with the same Scottish rock influences with a faster and more melodic style than its predecessors. Again a strong album throughout its highlights include: the popular "Look Away," "The Teacher," and the fantastic "The Red Fox" & "The Sailor" to close out the album. |
Big Country The Buffalo Skinners |
Big Country is BACK! or is it still even Big Country? Where's the e-bow and celtic sound? Forget that, the Buffalo Skinners is a re-born Big Country is a straight out rock form. A VERY strong album through and through although not reaching commercial success or the US it is a very accessible Rock album: Highlights include Alone, We're not in Kansas, Ships, All Go Together and Winding Wind. The acoustic/piano version of Ship could be a #1 single in the US |
Big Country Driving to Damascus |
Big Countrys Final Stand. In many ways you can follow the struggles of Frontman Stuart Adamson in his lyrics throughout the years. He is a brilliant musician, lyricist legendary broadcaster and DJ John Peel labeled him as ?Britain?s answer to Jimi Hendrix?. But underneath he was an off an on alcoholic and had gone through some brutal divorces and relationships that left him dead in a Hawaii hotel room in 2001. RIP Stuart Adamson, the pioneer of the e-bow, and gifted celtic rock writer and musician. Driving to Damascus, like Buffalo Skinners is a great rock album. They go back to thier celtic influencs at times especially in "Trouble the Waters." Highlights include "Somebody Else," "The President Slipped and Fell," and the great ballad, one of my personal favorite big country songs "Fragile Thing" |

Iron Maiden Killers |
In a very similar style to its predecessor, Killers is again a young, fiery, and punk/metal style of Maiden. I think the best way to describe it is that this album is slightly more in a Paul Di'ano syle than their debut. Again not a bad effort on the album. Highlights are: Wrathchild, Murders in the Rue Morgue, Drifter. |
