A full live album from the Blaze era option could have been on the poll.
Please no... As much as I love The X Factor fact is Bailey's performance of tha majority of its songs live were really crap (I've listened to a handful of them and he manages to butcher the sign of the cross chorus on every single one). Now if Blaze decides to release a live record featuring 1995-1998 songs (regarding the huge improvement of his voice nowdays - especially live) that would be amazing!

I think he sounds pretty good on the live tracks that were on Best of the B-Sides. And the Evil that Men Do live version with him isn’t that bad. I know it’s not gonna happen but I would really like a properly produced live album with Blaze.

But even more than that I want a new studio album. They’ve proven they can still make very good music, so I want more.
 
Old school singles with the new album, i.e one released prior to the album on a couple of formats with b-sides (none live) and a second released after the album has been out a while.

I would love this ... but doubt it will happen. For now, new album .. I assume they will clear out whatever they have in the vaults at some point as the band eventually winds down.
 
I just want a solid new album. I would really like to see songs and arrangements resulting to a 55 minute 10 track album. Unfortunately they do not make them as they used to.
 
They never made albums with 10 tracks and 55 min run time. There's a few 8 track albums near 55 mins and one 12 track one.

Well I did not say I wanted an exact copy of an old album.
 
In addition to new album and LOTB live release (Legacy Alive? :D), I'd really love to see some kind of an "Eddie's Live Archives" type of thing from the re-union era; yeah, there are decent pro-shots and high quality bootlegs out there, but I'd really like to have official live versions of various special performances by the current line-up. Not that I'd have any problem with older live versions (if available) of particular songs, but I think that modern live-renditions have usually been pretty outstanding.

Maybe 2x 2CD package?

I would really, really love it if IM released a live album from LOTB; they are more than likely to do so I believe. But at the moment I'm eagerly anticipating a new (possibly final) album.
 
Ok, maybe nothing from the pool but I would like to see:

1) The new album, obviously
2) Release from NPFtD (yeah, I know but still for me this is #1 album)
3) Maybe another DVD from the studio recording sessions (like they did with AMOLAD)
4) Demo's from the reunion era (from what I know they have like a shitload of material that was not released because of reasons - I would kill to hear these ideas :) )
 
Demos? From reunion era? Material unreleased? Yes this would be option 2, if “reunion era” Demos exist....
 
Seeing as I have full live concerts of Matter of Life and Death, World Piece Tour, Maiden Japan and some other shit, I just want a new album. As much as I want a new album, I keep getting sad every time a new album is released and I think that might be the end. Maybe the best case scenario is to have an album perpetually about to release...but never does.
 
New Album: Yes please. Preferably an even split of shorter stuff and long, proggier stuff, but it'll probably be 4 hours long. Eh, I'll still love it.

1970s unreleased material: If we're talking unreleased songs, then yes I would be very interested. If it's just live versions of songs we've already heard featuring one-off members, then no thanks.

1981 live with Paul: There aren't that many songs from this era that I'm hankering to hear live versions of, unless they performed "Strange World", so no thanks.

1981 live with Bruce: See above.

1983 live: For what? An official live version of "To Tame A Land" and other songs we've already got live versions of? No thanks.

1986 live: Arghhhh. I'd love to hear a good version of "Caught Somewhere In Time" live, but I just don't think one exists. Minus the third guitar it just sounds weak, weak, weak.

I don't really care as soon as it adds to my vinyls collection: What's vinyl? A 70's drug?
