Agreed.
They were superb live too whenever I got to see them between 1999 and 2010.
A very good friend was the singer/guitar player in a local heavy rock band and they supported Barón Rojo in the 90s. Later on, I did sing in a local metal band in the late 90s/early 00s and we were lucky to support Barón Rojo in 2000. Fast forward eight years to the Via de la Plata Festival, with Maiden being the biggest band in that one day festival (it was the Somewhere Back in Time tour). My mate and I, with our respective better halves, are in attendance. Maiden play a great show, but they are not the last band on stage. Barón Rojo play after them and my mate tells me: “We can now tell that my band, your band, and Iron Maiden all have played before Barón Rojo”
