Customer Reviews of Iron Maiden:Live After Death

This performance was filmed during World Slavery Tour at Long Beach Arena, LA, and the band was at their peak: Dickinson sung like a devil, Dave's and Adrian's guitarwork is greater than ever, there are many songs that they haven't played for ages: Aces High, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Powerslave(=)!) and Revelations to name few.

But WHY they haven't released this on Dvd-format?I'm waiting for that day as much as I wait for Iron Maiden(their first concertvideo with Di'Anno), 12 Wasted Years, Maiden England and Live at Donington on DVD-format. But Live After Death first!!!

Live After Death - the ultimate IRON MAIDEN video
This video is the ultimate Maiden. I also own the VHS 12 Wasted Years, Maiden England, and the DVD Rock in Rio (which is very good) but not as good as Live After Death.
It really is Iron Maiden at the height of their powers, and though it's VHS, the sound is very very good, prob because this video was produced by Sony Music.
I bought mine new in 1990 or so and still treasure it. The skill and musical talent of the lads is very apparent in this video. Every member of the band absolutely soars here.
SONY PLEASE PLEASE MAKE THIS A DVD!!
I saw them live in Honolulu, HI during the LAST SHOW of the World Slavery Tour in 1985. They ended the American leg of the tour in Honolulu, and Bruce announced during the show that Dave Murray would be getting married the next day in Hawaii.
The band members wore the same outfits as in the video and Bruce even had the mask that you see on Powerslave. I was just a teenager and it made a BIG impression on me. One of the best concerts I've ever seen and I just feel so lucky to be able to watch it again and again (from front row) in this video.
Up the Irons!!!

This is _THE_ live album
This video essentially captures a very refined selection of their first (commonly thought) heavier albums. The album is produced by the legendary producer Martin Birch who a.o. engineered Deep Purple's Made in Japan.

I personally think that Somewhere/Seventh Son was the first peak of their career, Brave New World being the 2nd, for most Maiden fans, LaD has all the old beloved songs, performed almost perfectly, and in one of my favorite Maiden themes: ancient Egypt. The list of musicianship awards that this album received would be longer than the Chinese Wall I guess.

I had the chance of owning the original 2-LP version of the album back in the days but there are many versions of it: 1cd, 2cd, 1cd+bonus, vhs, etc. The video is one of the better versions of the album. Alas, as in most Maiden videos, we don't get to see Nicko's "the world's fastest right foot".

Here is the corrected setlist:
1 Churchill's Speech
2 Aces High
3 2 Minutes to Midnight
4 The Trooper
5 Revelations
6 Flight of Icarus
7 Rime of the Ancient Mariner
8 Powerslave
9 The Number of the Beast
10 Hallowed Be Thy Name
11 Iron Maiden
12 Band Introduction
13 Run to the Hills
14 Running Free
15 Sanctuary

This album deserves the title of being _THE_ live album, having withstood the test of time, without any single doubt. Though I know many fine concerts (Fates Warning - Still Life, Ozric Tentacles - Live Underslunky, Rush - Exit Stage Left/Show of Hands, etc.) this video wins hands down. And after all, put everything aside, it's not easy to play in front of a few hundreds of thousands of people, is it?
