    Started getting original UK's awhile back, and wow is it a great sounding pressing.
    Only weird thing I found is Heaven Can Wait is a little quieter than all the other tracks

      My favorite Iron Maiden Album. Had this album on cassette tape back in ‘86 and wore it out!! Got the OG CD soon after but it got stolen :-(
      30 odd years later and I finally found this nice NM Vintage UK pressing and it sounds amazing! Very lively and present with a nice punchy bottom end. Super happy!

        Another MASTERPIECE of heavy metal 80's, the indisputable and immortal CLASSIC of metal music of all time. In my Iron Maiden hit parade, this album is occupies the 3rd place, the first two places are "Number of the Beast" and "The Seventh Son" - unattainable peaks. In this album, I would like to mention such songs as "Caught Somewhere In Time", "Loneliness ..." and of course - the epic hymn "Alexander the Great", maybe really not the strongest in of lyrics, but unmatched musically. I have nothing more to add, all the real metalheads have heard this album for a long time.
