Customer Reviews

vital
here you have it then,all of maidens videos and a few extra treats,from their humble beginnings up until 2000s brave new world album when bruce returned and all that is in between,from the era when paul di'anno was vocalist,to bruce,to blaze and back to bruce again,and as you would expect this is essential,simple as that in the end.
The first track featured is 'women in uniform' which is as cheesy as you can imagine,a pretty average rock n roll song that certainly defines the era that it was created in,but for that novelty value there is still credit to be gained,all the classics follow and its hard to stop this double disc dvd once it gets rolling,for me my favourite video is 'wicker man'which is a great homage to the film of the same name and it was the first video launched when bruce returned to the band and it is just electric,watch the bands career unfold in front of your eyes here from the leotards that they used to wear in the mid 80s to the jeans and leathers of the years thereafter,watch bruce look so cheesy and have a laugh at him bobbing away in the video to 'flight of icarus' and view some of the poor eddie the monster costumes and watch the crowds grow wilder as each live video unfolds and view the mullets gently move in the soaring wind but most of all know this ,maiden are maiden and they are the very meaning of the word metal,respect where respect is due and this dvd doesnt fail on any levels.

Essential Maiden
With 31 videos spanning Iron Maiden's entire history, how can you go wrong? Inevitably the quality dips a little after the initial batch from Maiden's classic '80's albums, but it's still a great visual record of the bands history. Admittedly most of the promotional videos are based around simple band performance footage, but the quality of the songs is so high that overly flashy video's just aren't required. Probably the set's nadir is the woeful Virus, which as well as being an uninspiring song is almost unwatchable, as the video consists of nothing more than constant violent focus pulls, but elsewhere the much derided Blaze Bailey era holds up reasonably well, with even the dull Quo-rocking of The Angel and the Gambler enlivened by an energetic video. Extras come in the form of a number of video's redone with new animated inserts, and these work surprisingly well, especially for Run to the Hills and the Number of the Beast, where they replace the comedy material of the original videos with something more suitably dramatic. One aspect of this collection that may fade over time is the fact that almost a quarter of the songs are actual live performances that may well end up being released separately elsewhere (Rock in Rio has already been released separately - how long before Donnington etc?), but the sheer comprehensive nature of this collection makes it an essential purchase for all Maiden fans.

NB: Please note that the UK release has had the video for The Trooper censored for animal cruelty, (the inserts come from an old film where wires were used to trip horses to create stunt falls), so depending on your views you may wish to import the uncut US release.

great compilation
Of course its a great compilation, as many above wrote, but i gave only 4 stars because of the common problem of this kind of compilations on dvd, with many songs compressed with lower quality of picture, to contain them in the disk. However, if you don't own any other kind of Maiden video collection, then it's a must!
