I don't believe this has been posted, but I found myself listening to the Best of The B-sides and was appreciating 'Doctor Doctor'.... Not a fan of the Blaze era but really did like this cover version. Blaze does a good job and the production isn't all bad either.
On the whole, however, I didn't really like many of Maiden's cover tracks.
I don't think they do a good job, myself. They mostly come across as unimaginative and knocked out too quickly.
I think my favourite is 'Massacre', a Thin Lizzy track they covered for one of the Seventh Son singles. I only have it because of the 1996 re-issue of 7th Son which had all the singel b-sides. I really think it was a shame that it didn't make it onto the Best Of The B Sides - a very off omission.
