Iron Maiden-3.Transylvania(Milan 1993)

Iron Maiden - Forum, Milan, Italy, May 9, 1993, during the '' A Real Live Tour'' 1993.

Bruce Dickinson:Vocals
Steve Harris:Bass
Janick Gers:Guitar
Dave Murray:Guitar
Nicko McBrain:Drums
''Transylvania'' is a song from Iron Maiden's album ''Iron Maiden'',released in 1980.
The initial idea on this one was to have lyrics. It originally had a melody line for the vocal, but when we played it, it sounded so good as an instrumental that we never bothered to write lyrics for it.(Steve Harris)
This is a very cool and catchy instrumental track, the first of only four that were ever done by Iron Maiden. (The others are "The Ides Of March", "Genghis Khan", and "Losfer Words (Big 'Orra)").
Other than the title, there aren't any clues to what the song is about. Transylvania, however, is a real place located inside modern-day Romania. It was made famous as the setting for Bram Stoker's (1847-1912) classic vampire novel Dracula, which has been made into numerous movies, the best of which being probably Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
It is likely that the song was somehow inspired by the Dracula story, itself inspired by the life of Vlad Tepes, the ruthless ruler of Wallachia in the 15th century. It is not clear why Stoker used this historical character as a basis for his story, as there is no evidence that the man was drinking any human blood depite all the atrocities he committed.
'Iron Maiden', released on April 14, 1980, is the debut album by the British heavy metal band Iron Maiden.Every song on this album except 'Strange World' has since been recorded by the Dickinson-fronted line-up of the band, either on live albums, on studio B-Sides, or both.

1:54 Steve Harris missed one note.

[@jorgepensabe3957]

jajajajajaja yea!

[@j_freed]

Yeah he goes to B instead of D, it's funny.

[@j_freed]

Also just after 2:40 Yannick points at Dave but then he plays way out of time.

[@michaelangeloh.5383]

Geez, they're using some forward style of camera work there... > 3:51 Probably quite a small camera with (clearly) a fisheye lens. Must be inspired by skating-videos and such, considering the time.

[@hansvink15]

That what i also liked about the video, you don't see that kind of shots anymore with the new dvd's!

[@business.as.usuall7026]

yeah that's a good a point, he always used that guitar live during this maiden period, maybe to honor adrian or something lol

[@cabre4]

My favourite Irons, the instrumentals...

[@j_freed]

Blaze nailed this song.

[@gabrielsimunec1678]

2:28 hhhhahahaha what a face

[@MrKamel93]

Hey, can someone help me. What guitar was Dave using on this tour? From the 70's to the 90's he used his Signature and then in the late 90's he began to use his hot rail guitar. but i've never found out what guitar he was using on the A Real Live One/ Raising Hell Tour. Can someone help me? Thanks

[@louisianaball]

TheMoistWanted looks like a Jackson to me

[@raymangamers0817]

The part in the end looks like Welcome Home of Metallica

[@gabrielnavarro690]

nico the best!!

[@manuela1410]

Inspired by Romanian folklore more than the stupis story

[@mementomori8791]

2:33 the mic just can’t keep up with Dave

[@purplehaze1805]

Dave used Adrian's signature guitar,interesting :D

[@fabiangaleano1916]

Nope, Adrian uses Jackson’s guitars. That one is a Fender American elite.

Iron maiden is 10 points...with Clive 11.

[@clansmanscotland1592]

Guitars are out of tune,Gers missed solo.

[@Kaziriasatalve.]

This is why they play in the arenas, make world tour with Boeing 747 and you rant on the youtube sitting at your ghetto!

[@andreat.2809]

There's something wrong, or out of tune or time. I think simply miss Clive Burr.

[@goclaymatthews54]

I think megadeth ripped this song off in she wolf

[@svilendenchev9984]

No. She wolf is like that: 000000000000000

Imbarazzante Gers..... Quanti errori.... per fortuna e' tornato Smith

2:34 what a fail

[@renatorock2181]

É incrível como nas partes de solos do Janick Gers,Ele consegue ser péssimo e mata tudo.Gers too bad! 👎

[@guilhermegadotti998]

Sempre achei ele muito ruim.....

[@PedroHenrique-sf2ni]

Quem é velho de iron maiden pensa a mesma coisa,invés dele tenta fazer igual o original ele faz uns solos lambidos e exagerados que acaba fazendo nenhum sentido ao resto da musica

[@andymarroquin6610]

Not the same wack af

[@j_freed]

This song was better with Paul Dianno…
