Essential Iron Maiden Hits Coming ?

on May 18, 2005 @ 19:55

From JustHerb on the screamforme forums:

Disc One: Paschendale Rainmaker The Wicker Man Brave New World Futureal The Clansman Sign of the Cross Man on the Edge Be Quick or Be Dead Fear of the Dark (Live) Holy Smoke Bring Your Daughter... The Clairvoyant

Disc Two: The Evil That Men Do Wasted Years Heaven Can Wait 2 Minutes To Midnight Aces High Flight of the Icarus [sic] The Trooper The Number of the Beast Run To The Hills Wrathchild Killers Phantom of the Opera Running Free (live) Iron Maiden (live from Dance of Death tour, previously unreleased)

CD Booklet includes extensive liner notes, detailed discography and rare photos.

Digitally Remastered from the original master tapes.

30 second commercials on Fuse, MTV2

Now normally, i wouldn't believe it, but JustHerb works in the record industry and tends to find out about these sort of things all the time through the press releases and such. It would certainly explain the trooper single that is ment to be coming. I guess we will have to wait and see....

Isn't Essential Iron Maiden that unofficial biography album/dvd? Or is that Maximum Iron Maiden?

Thats maximum iron maiden. Apparently, the essential series is something that sony does and is only released in the USA.

The release date is July 5th. It makes sense to release "best of' CD just before Ozzfest - it'll help them to sell some more albums in the US!

Will create a news post about this tomorrow if no one does it before.

For now, I have to get some sleep and think all night about that new Star Wars I've seen... The last I'll see in my life. Shit.

Cheers

Credited you on the main page.

Album is also listed at Amazon.com

No artwork yet, but I'm looking around. My guess: a picture of the band with 'The Essential Iron Maiden' written at the top

No fancy drawing. But I hope to be proven wrong !

Cheers
