21.50 UK time on YouTube, I think:

Anyone got a suggestion as to how the audio from the Stranger video could suffer from so much clipping? Does YouTube's compression ever create this much clipping? I'm surprised - even for Maiden's recent standards - that someone thought that sounded good enough to upload.

I'd appreciate a link too. Thanks!

No credit for me, thank you. Phantom Creations is the only person due credit as they transferred the tape to DVD when physical trading was a thing…!

I’ve got it and can upload it later today.

Indeed. Bruce notices a Swedish journalist in the audience of the Wroclaw gig, the fourth show of the tour (12/08/84).

Perhaps the book you mention is the Iron Maiden Companion by Gamba and Visintini? https://tshirtslayer.com/other-collectable/iron-maiden-companion-book http://www.ironmaidenbooks.com/

Seems legit to me. Surely the real question is whether the whole song was recorded and is just missing from that particular reel-to-reel tape, or it was it never recorded?

I'm more likely to skip Charlotte the Harlot than Mother Russia if either came on shuffle in the company of non-Maiden friends... Make of that what you will!

I’ve been wondering that too…

Ask the Power Trip organisers…

You get post before 8am? Impressive!

Thanks for explaining. I followed Blaze up until Blood and Belief and then again for the Trilogy (and beyond)...I didn't follow the middle bit at all. I've since listened to The Man Who Would Not Die and Promise and Terror a few times. I quite like them and especially on the former, I think...

What was the debacle?

I’d love to get an answer to that question. I suppose it there’s at least two questions there: 1) how did it happen in the first place (surely ‘recording hot’ isn’t a complete explanation?), and 2) why wasn’t it removed after the recording? The worst possible answer is that people simply don’t...

Yes, the clipping on the final disc's tracks is present; as far as I can tell, it appears to be on all versions (suggesting it wasn't caused at the mastering stage, but before that).

I could be mistaken but I believe the Black Triangle Japanese releases feature exactly the same mastering as the the original UK/Holland/West Germany CDs [inexpensive examples are easy to come by]. The Black Triangle's reputation as being superior is perhaps down the the physical quality of the...

Found, and uploaded, the Sweden gig mention above... https://mega.nz/folder/NRJgwbrL#Q0ehXHuNVjGFKBEUDnT6Ng

Well spotted. I've also inexplicably got two empty folders for: 2004-04-27 - Melrose Rock Club, Helsingborg, Sweden (DM) 2004-09-27 - Burgwiesenhalle, Oberursel, Germany (SF) I suppose my Blaze live shows aren't as neatly organised as the Maiden ones I've got. If anyone has the above please let...
