No 10's on The Number Of The Beast?
No. I do like it and it was the first album I ever heard from Maiden at 9 years old, so it holds a special place in my heart; but these days I would not give a 10.
 
Yeah, I understand, but it's strange that not one song from The Number Of The Beast or Piece Of Mind deserve a 10, but songs like Chains Of Misery, Don't Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger, Hooks In You etc. do.
 
My 10s list looks tiny compared to everyone else's. Then again, I only give 10 to the really special ones, also there's about 30 each for 9 and 8.

Phantom of the Opera
Hallowed Be Thy Name (but dropping quite fast)
Still Life (just recently overtook Revelations which is dropping even faster than Hallowed)
To Tame a Land
Powerslave
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Caught Somewhere in Time
Stranger in a Strange Land
Infinite Dreams
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Afraid to Shoot Strangers
Sign of the Cross
The Clansman
Blood Brothers (a couple songs from the album are trying to crack into the 10s though)
Dance of Death
Paschendale

Interesting to note that a bunch of albums don't have any 10 songs from them (but all of them at least have a 9) and no Maiden album has more than 2 10s on it, even though there are a bunch of non Maiden albums that have 3 10s songs on them, yet Maiden is my favourite band, so go figure.
 
i dont know how i just ended up posting a post of my post quoted but i assume it had something to do with my leaving the computer unattended... so to not make this a pointless waste of board space...      im of a similar mindset unknown. but we seem to differ in the direction by year that our 10's lean.
i have loadsa albums not breaking 9's
