The LeBrain Train: 2000 Words or More with Mike Ladano
Episode 54 – Best Iron Maiden Cover Art
Time to chill out with a more laid-back show this Friday! We’ve had some serious lists, and serious guests in recent weeks. This week is almost like a vacation. Join Harrison the Mad Metal Man, Aaron from KeepsMeAlive, and Superdekes with myself here tonight as we share our favourite Iron Maiden artwork.
The art of Derek Riggs, Melvyn Grant, and many talented coversmiths including Hugh Syme will be up for examination tonight. No disqualifications: albums, singles, whatever! As long as one of us likes it, we can list it. Each of us will have our own rules and criteria.
BONUS: Iron Maiden ReAction figure unboxing! While it would be nice to have a complete set, I could only order four. These Eddies, based on Iron Maiden cover art, will definitely be on topic for this show!
7:00 PM E.S.T.

Next week: The 1 Year Anniversary Show with giveaways and special guest Brent Jensen!
YAY!!!! I’m looking forward to your conversations on Maiden, knowing that there’ll be four of you, so I’ll assume there won’t be a timer this time, haha! Either way, it’s Maiden, it’s going to be awesome! Best of luck guys!

Even the contrarian that is myself wouldn’t do that. The No More Lies EP almost made the list though

Eddie is the coolest and maybe also most used band mascot. Does any other band mascot have so many appearances? Maybe Vic?

Can’t think of any, KK. You got Vic, you got Alastair Fiend, you got Dio’s mascot…none as consistent and varied as Eddie!

This will be cool. Iron Maiden has the best artwork and mascot of any band.

I wonder if any back covers will make an appearance…

Possibly. Some have wraparound covers where the back is important too.
