LOL That lineup is actually a DIO lineup without Ronnie himself! (The Killing the Dragon album)
This tribute could be worth spending on. I´m usually not fond of tributes, but this one has an impressive amount of talented and legendary musicians who I admire. Overall pretty boring song selection though
The best line up Ive seen on a Maiden tribute album yet. Probably worth picking up a copy. But thats it. NO MORE MAIDEN TRIBUTES PEOPLE!

How the hell is going to sing the chorus?
I cant wait till this album cones out. They couldnt have got a better bunch of Musicians to pay tribute to Iron Maiden. Up the Irons.
Sounds quite interesting...I wonder who will sing FOTD?
I say: Blaze Bayley I wouldn't normally want him on a Maiden tribute, but damnit it just sounds so awesome on that song.
Any idea of when it is coming out, it sounds awsome!!
Fantastic! Interesting way of doing a tribute album too by mixing musicians around. Hope it sounds as good as it looks

This has been done several times. For instance, Bruce and Adrian recorded 'Black widow' for "Humanary stew: A tribute to Alice Cooper".
still waiting for the "ultimate" tribute with such a "stars" like marilyn manson or sweet michael (jackson)!
