LOL That lineup is actually a DIO lineup without Ronnie himself! (The Killing the Dragon album) tongue.gif

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!

This has been done several times. For instance, Bruce and Adrian recorded 'Black widow' for "Humanary stew: A tribute to Alice Cooper". wink.gif
