One might pressume Bruce Dickinson is the man that holds the keys to franchis Maiden. that is not the truth, however. In fact, this happens to be their second best effort. "Running Free", "Charlotte The Harlot" and the title track are classic, straightforward heavy metal filled with raw energy sometimes lacking in Dickinson era songs, while "Remember Tomorrow" and "Strange World" prove that Maiden had a strong sense of sensibility right at the beginning. Di'Anno is not Dickinson, but he scores very well here, indeed. If you like Number Of The Beast and Piece Of Mind, do not heistate getting this one.
