MAIDEN got completely lost after Dickinson left in 1992. But they had to keep money puring down into their bank accounts, so Steve and the producers took the unprecedent step of releasing THREE consecutive live albuns, each one worst than the other: "REAL LIVE ONE", "REAL DEAD ONE" and "LIVE AT DONINGTON". WHy is this so bad? BEcause production is horrible, because it was clearly made for getting easy money, because guitarrist Janick Gers can't improvise at all ( he only smashes the great lead break Smith had written ), because Harris took off his mask and showed who rules MAIDEN with an Iron hand. If you're a real MAIDEN fan, you know what I'm talking about.. Anyway, they survided and are back with "BRAVE NEW WORLD", a solid album. (because Smith and Dickinson are back; if was not for it, the band was finished ..)
