Let's see... My top 2 all time favorite Maiden songs are Aces High and Rime Of The Ancient Mariner.
So although Albums like Piece Of Mind, Somewhere In Time and Seventh Son have also incredibly awesome openers and closers, Powerslave is easily my pick.
 
Powerslave.

Shout out to FOTD, not saying it's a contender for best, but for a relatively weak album it has a good opener and closer (although the album version of the title track ain't great)
