5 stars Quite simply put , this is the best live album ever recorded. This would be the one I would bring with me if was put on an island and told I was only allowed one album with me. The musianship is excellent and the vocal talent of Bruce Dickenson is stunning . Songs taken from their five previous studio albums show how the band had progressed from the late 70's when they formed up to the masterpiece which was 'Powerslave'. The album starts powerfully with 'Aces High' and 'Two minutes to midnight' , continues with amazing song after song and includes two of the best metal songs ever , with the best guitar riffs , 'Revelations' and 'Hallowed Be Thy Name' , spectacular stuff. The sound quality throughout is top notch with an excellent mix of lead guitars , bass , drums and vocals. This album is special for me as I used to go to the local record store as a twelve year old just to look at the amazing gatefold album cover( I could not afford to buy it...boo hoo).This album and 'Piece of Mind' , Maidens first 'progmetal' album set me on my way to progdom.

Amazing stuff....6 out of 5
