NOW PLAYING

[SixesAlltheway]

The other day i saw a performance at the rainbow. And how different thry sounded than now in the early 80s.

By the time of Rainbow they had definitely honed their skills! They had toured for most of 1980 and Live at the Rainbow was recorded at the end of the year to sorta celebrate the end of that very first tour.

I just find it interesting to look at how closely they resembled many of the punk rock groups of the late 70s - like The Adverts's performance above for example

Im not sure where it was but if you compare the sound to now is so different.

Oh yeah of course, their sound changed a lot in those early years and until now!

And that's even in 1981!

The originals are perfect, but too bad they didn't record in the studio with Bruce in 1988 and: Running Free, Sanctuary, Iron Maiden, Wrathchild, Killers/Murders.

And Transylvania!

And Transylvania!

"it never had a singer and... probably never will" - one of my faves from A Real Dead One to be fair

Come to think of it I'm actually happy that they did dig deep and did Charlotte the Harlot and Prowler instead of say like Wratchild, Running Free etc.

If we want a studio recording of Wrathchild with Bruce there is this:

"it never had a singer and... probably never will"

Rumour says it did initially
But yeah, I agree about the rest.

But I like how Bruce have to complain about the instrumentals each time....

in 1993 and before that a Hammersmith before Losfer Words:

And there's no fucking singer on it...bollocks!

 

[SixesAlltheway]

Massive setlist inclusion back in 1993.

The tempo of this is insane.

Ive never heard that. Its like the audition tape from 82 but in 99

Sorta yeah. It's like they wanted to break back Bruce after the reunion and have some fun doing so!

We also have Bruce singing Remember Tomorrow from the Number of the Beast single in 82.

But It is actually the same recording that appears on the Maiden Japan EP but with Bruce over-dubbing Di'Annos vocals in the studio. So it's basically Bruce singing the song in the studio over a previosly recorded live track
