[@smedensweden2180]

Paul Cairns one of the best solos in all categories. You, Sir, are amazing, and we should all be thankful for this solo

[@attilaevil]

Did You ever perform "live" with Iron Maiden ???

[@attilaevil]

Hi Paul, this was recorded in December of 1978 ????

[@ia1lieutenant]

Bless you Dear Sir, thanks for the info - maybe you should be mentioned on the back cover - it's a pity :'( but that's history now

[@MrDAVO1234567]

@@attilaevil Yes, but release was november 1979.

[@bionikball75]

This is scary Maiden for me. This is the Maiden I don’t ever want to meet in a dark alley street. Excellent

[@bensstuff1889]

Paul's voice is like marmite. You either love it or hate it and I've got to say I'm a lover :)

[@LateNightPerson]

I dont think anyone's complaining about paul's voice on the early Maiden records lol

[@ais6863]

Really great, I miss this early Maiden versus "reunion Maiden". Line-up here: Paul Di'Anno, Dave Murray, Paul Cairns (not credited), Steve Harris and Doug Sampson. Recorded 30&31 December 1978.

[@attilaevil]

1978 ??? Really, in December ? Wow ! Seriously ?

[@TheLarryburns84]

@@attilaevil yep, on new year's because studio time was much much cheaper than usual . no one had it booked out

[@miguelanxomuradolo2638]

I've read here and there that I fact Dave played both guitars, and that's why Paul Cairns was not credited. Nice the add of Strange World. Up the Irons! 🎸🎵🎶

Paul Cairns that’s awesome! You’re a part of Maiden History dude!! It’s a shame you’re uncredited on this it’s beautiful !

[@thefonzkiss]

They went back to try to buy the original multitrack tape so they could maybe overdub some extra guitars later and the tape had been reused.

[@claudiomerlo5988]

Really liking this version of Prowler! Slower but still great to listen to! !,,/_

[@ligeirinho3.028]

Grande demo! Valeu a pena ouvir.

[@thewhatorwhy]

Though Maiden says they don't like the production on the debut it's a huge leap from this to the studio album. That and the 79 BBC performance together are definitive.

[@maëstvsn]

I really like this version of the Iron Maiden song

[@brianknopf8223]

Outstanding

[@ColtraneTaylor]

The Spacewords demo from 1978 is faster than this. So Iron Maiden had speeded up back then and slowed it down for 1979 before speeding up again for the debut.

That part just after 9:00 shows just what the world lost when Di'Anno left the group...does it get any better than that in heavy rock? Lord have mercy!!

[@gabrielp9646]

I don´t think the world lost annything... If Paul didn´t left the band back then, we wouldn have gotten all the amazing stuff Paul Dianno did solo, like the first two Battlezone albums, and specially Murder One (with his band, Killers) There is some pretty amazing shit in those albums xDxD

[@abrahamedelstein4806]

[@anthonydidomenico1181]

big fan of Bruce but w out Paul I don't think maiden would have been the iconic legends... Paul brought that NWOBHM combined w old school punk roots. I hate that I sold my original copy of this 7"... market def wasn't the best at time

[@BAlvn-yr6ej]

Di'Anno was way better..the first album is so fucking raw, and I think it's easily their best album, largely because of Paul's voice...Bruce is a great metal singer, of course, but I guess he never smoked and/or drank quite to the level of Paul, or Lemmy for that matter! lol

[@JeredtheShy]

@@BAlvn-yr6ej Yeah, this has a really nasty punk rock feeling that was missing later on.

[@danielfarje8857]

"Iron Maiden" seems cut off its final seconds

[@kwilfort]

Wonder how it would have sounded if they had been able to finish production on it?

[@lmjones7716]

I think it's perfect as it is, except for Di'Anno's vocal on SW! Sounds like he was suffering a bad hangover there. BTW - I recognise your name from various IM books, docos, etc... It must have been amazing to see the band back in those early days. All the best to ya!

[@gabrielclaudio889]

Iron Maiden e Prowler muito mais pesadas do que no álbum de estreia da banda, uma pena o primeiro álbum ter sido mal produzido.
