50 Years of IRON MAIDEN episode 6:  Beast Over Hammersmith

A special 🅻🅸🆅🅴 episode

GRAB A STACK OF ROCK #93

Good evening Hammersmith…or wherever you are!  Tonight on 50 Years of Iron Maiden, Harrison and I are appropriately tackling this live album with a live episode!

Beast Over Hammersmith is a double live album recorded just before The Number of the Beast was released.  The band played a rare mix of Di’Anno classics and deep cuts, along with new material, and one B-side!  Bruce explains to the crowd that it’s not “really” a B-side, which it was, but we’ll get into that, as well as “all the lazy bastards from EMI in the back.”

This episode is our sendoff to Clive Burr, and we’ll be talking about him, though not for the last time in this series.

Beast Over Hammersmith was first issued as a 2 CD set within the Eddie’s Archive box set, which we have taken brief looks at in the past.  Today you can get Beast Over Hammersmith on vinyl, so it is a significant enough release to warrant its own episode.

So give us a yo, yo yo yo! and see us tonight, live!
