Am I the only Maiden fan that misses the covers that the boys used to record as b-sides for their singles? What would you guys think if the Maiden camp were to start recording and releasing albums of covers. I mean they did collect most of their b-sides together for The Best Of The B-Sides collection. They have stated in the past that these covers didn't take a long time to record as they were songs that they knew and loved so the recording of such an album would not take that long. They could put one out every two or three years as a stop gap between official releases. They could even be themed, e.g. NWOBHM, Prog, Folk Rock etc etc. Personaly I would love to hear them take on And The Bands Played On by Saxon. Surely there was never a song more suited for the three guitar line up? What do you guys Think? What would you like to hear?

I was thinking just the same thing yesterday, scouring Amazon.com for precisely that reason. Which makes me happy that I purchased a turntable last year and can still acquire these 7" singles.

You know, when I listened to this version of Reach Out I couldn't help myself expecting a Bruce-like voice repeating the "reach ooooout" line

That's what you get for listening too much to a cover version.
