462. Iron Maiden / Hallowed Be Thy Name [Live] [Single]. 1993. 5/5

Released off the back of A Real Dead One, this features four live tracks from that tour. When buying singles these days, I will usually only purchase them if they have additional tracks (formerly B-side tracks) that have not been released. The three here are fare that we have all heard a billion times before – “The Trooper”, “Wasted Years” and “Wrathchild” – but damn if they still don’t just sound brilliant in the live environment. A good mix with the crowd getting involved as well.

Rating: Still sound great after all these years. 5/5
