Iron Maiden FLIGHT 666
The idea behind FLIGHT 666 was seemingly birthed from a WAYNE'S WORLD fantasy sequence: the mighty Iron Maiden would embark upon a world tour of exotic locales, transported to each venue in a custom 757 jet piloted by the band's lead singer, with scores of crew, journalists, and family members in tow. Surprisingly, the band not only pulled off the mind-boggling undertaking but delivered an extraordinary live album in the process. The FLIGHT 666 soundtrack compares favorably with the band's classic in-concert disc, LIVE AFTER DEATH, and, since it is heavy on classic Maiden tracks like "Run to the Hills" and "The Trooper," would also serve as a fine introduction for newbies. Throughout, the band's performances are spirited and joyous, showing that Iron Maiden were still the kings of British metal more than three decades into their storied career.
