This is my first thread on new PE.
I had a few bucks left on the Best Buy gift card my kid gave me so I perused the racks to see what I could find. I'd been looking for Maiden's SIT for a while but it was either overpriced or just no where to be found (at brick and mortar stores). Best Buy stores are closing down so I'm pretty sure they're gonna have a fire sale soon. CD prices have gone down to a reasonable $9.99 to $4.99.
Okay, the album: Most of the reviews I've read over the years have been negative. The synth guitars, Bruce's voice, the "this or that." Well, I love it. It's as good as (or slightly better than) Seventh Son. Yeah, the synthy guitar and overall production are not as good as Piece Of Mind or Powerslave but I think it's a damn fine Maiden album.
BTW, I also noticed that Steve Harris released a solo album titled "British Lion." I almost picked it up but wasn't sure if that was THE Steve Harris. It is. Has anyone heard it?
