I don't think this is the proper interpretation of the thread lol.

Lol, true. Love the damn album so much that I didn't even read the original post. Some albums were expected some others not so much. I'm pretty much surprised that Blackie's #1 isn't something by The Who.

Hey @Forostar, this a great idea for a thread. I wonder if you sign in here much these days but whenever you do, it would be very kind of you if you could please rename it as "Iron Maiden's influences". I could have made a seperate thread but the discussion here is really in flow and it's aspect can be further broadened. Thanks!

This is a surprise.
But that said, The Extremist has amazing drum sound (courtesy of Gregg Bissonette and Andy Johns) and some of Satch's best tracks. While "Surfing" is the cult classic, I think Extremist would be the best overall Satch album.

Here are the originals (compressed). Unfortunately, I must have cut Janick's in order to use the picture on the verso.
They are taken from this magazine (I still have the companion CD):

If I'm not mistaken, unless there are pages missing on mine (but it doesn't seem so, I'll check again when I'll be back home) but Janick Gers was nowhere to be found about these questions (didn't have the time to add the ones for Blaze on my initial post though, thanks a lot for all the scans).Here are the originals (compressed). Unfortunately, I must have cut Janick's in order to use the picture on the verso.
