The TRUE Dick Brucinson
Have you ever changed your opinion on any Maiden album during a longer period? This change of feeling might mark a personal upgrade as well as a downgrade of some particular album. If this was the case for you: Please share your point.
For me: No Prayer For The Dying. I coudn't really appreciate it when it came out, I was 15 years old, almost 16, back in the day and missed out the previous tour, which was SSOASS, because I was simply too young making my parents letting me go. So I saw them the first time in 1990. I had a feeling seeing and hearing a band that wasn't almost recognizable as Iron Maiden the way I believed to be familiar with them, and a lot of things were missing. H was missing, an impressive stage setup was missing and different other components that Maiden used to make Maiden for me.
Now I see it differently, NPFTD has become my fave Maiden album, for years yet. I think it has to do with its unique vibe to it which they never revisted again yet (and probably never ever will). Also I remember Janick got on my nerves on the album and how I wasn't ready to understand him as the brilliant songwriter he is.
