I admit that I've never been a big fan of Iron Maiden. Bruce Dickinson's vocals aren't really my taste. Iron Maiden has always had impressive musicianship skills, though. I used to have a couple of their albums, but I let someone have them. I later decided to buy Best of the Beast to get a comprehensive taste of their music. This package of hits is pretty good. I'm not a fan of every song, but some of them are cool. Ones that I like are "The Number of the Beast," "Wasted Years," and "Can I Play with Madness." I like some of the other ones, too. Blaze Bayley's vocals are okay. Best of the Beast's CD booklet is quite impressive. There are plenty of photos and drawings. The song lyrics are included, also. The CD booklet lists all of their albums and singles, too. I don't listen to Best of the Beast that much, but I still think that it's worth a listen.
