This album has to be the best compilation of Iron Maiden, and it's live and brutal as hell. Starting off with the speech of Winston Churchill's WWII speech sets the mood. Then 'Aces High' kicks in,(with Bruce Dickinson as the lead singer it sounds awesome. The guitars tend to blend together with the bass and makes some crushing riffs you want to listen to over and over again. '2 Minutes to Midnight' hit's in and the guitar playing is flawless another instant classic of melodic metal. Kicking in after that is 'The Trooper', and wow, nice rhythm with the guitars and drums flowing, and a few killer guitar solo's a metal master peace. Going threw the songs they are flawless in every aspect. When 'Number Of The Beast' kicks in, 9ou can feel the power of Maiden and the satanic power. Next 'Hallowed By Thy Name' kicks in, one of Maiden's best live songs. The guitar playing is just brutal. The next disc consist's a few great songs, the best being 'Phantom Of The Opera', a real treat to hear live, another superb melodic master piece.

This is the first live cd I ever listened to and still my favorite. I like this "version" of Hallowed Be Thy Name better than the studios!

After recently listening to this again I'm kinda asking myself why this was considered to be such a masterpiece of a live album. I mean yeah sure the instruments are tight but nothing special, they are just what you'd expect, Dickinson's live vocals on that tour were some of the worst of his entire pre-cancer career, the production is nothing to write home about even for it's time, the tracklisting is nothing special....

Back in the day it obviously made sense seeing the relatively small discography they had at this point in time, but looking at it today it just seems filled with songs that have been played to death.
