Of course it would be impossible to put all of Iron Maidens best songs on one album, so the producers of 'Best of the Beast' had to pick and choose. While they captured some of the best Dickenson era Maiden, they also included songs from the Post Dickenson Maiden. This is a let down for fans who consider any post Dickenson material boring and not quite up to par. It would have been better to include 'Die with your boots on' and 'flight of Icarus' in lieu of the newer stuff, saving that for a Volume 2.
