What is your favorite Maiden record out of the first 7? (the golden run).

[Misirlou]

Which one out of the first 7 Maiden album is your favorite? The classic 80s run.

 

[Sth2112]

It still is Somewhere in time.

 

[dickinson1978]

Easy. Seventh son of a seventh son.

 

[Clairvoyant Parchment]

P O W E R S L A V E

 

[el diablo]

Somewhere in Time, always and forever.

 

[Diesel 11]

Powerslave

 

[Fozzie4]

It`s always a tough call for me between POM, Powerslave, SIT. Having seen Powerslave and Rime live over the last 2 years then i`m going to say Powerslave edges it.

 

[Vaenyr]

SSOASS is the only one in my top 5. The first four are among my least favourite albums (still great, but I prefer the later material). SIT has great highs but abysmal lows (imo) and Powerslave has quite a few issues as well.

Somewhere in Time, although 7th Son has been my record of choice in recent times

 

[Eli]

From the 80s, song-wise, nothing beats Children of the Damned for me. But as an album, Powerslave is much better than TNOTB. SSOASS is equally good, but Powerslave has my vote only because of Dave's magnificent solos on the title track.

 

[Maiden Australia]

Always somewhere in time.

 

[Dick Brucinson]

Somewhere In Time will always have a special place for me since it was the current album when I got into Maiden.

 

[Azas]

M A S T E R D R I V E

Somewhere In Time will always have a special place for me since it was the current album when I got into Maiden.

I thought that was NPFTD mister Brucinson.

 

[Yax]

Powerslave, Seventh Son and Somewhere in Time shift around in my ranking all the time. I currently favor Powerslave.

 

[Dick Brucinson]

I thought that was NPFTD mister Brucinson.

It is! But NPFTD is not among the first seven albums, and that's what the thread is about. And yeah, NPFTD does knock out SIT for me.

This has got be the strangest opinion I’ve ever come across from a fellow maiden fan.

Don’t get me wrong I’m not knocking your opinion I’ve just never met anyone that would class the first 4 albums amongst their least favourites.

All power to you and it’s nice to see a different opinion to the masses. I think I rember you saying your favourite or at least one of your favourite albums is VXI which considering your opinion on the first 4 albums your definitely in a very lonely club when it comes to opinions on Maiden albums

None of the first 4 albums are in my Top 7 so it´s not really rare.
