by Oliver Kube (13.06.2008) Well, one thing is obvious: the last Maiden tours which had the Brits concentrating totally on their classic albums of the 80s (from "Iron Maiden" to "Seventh son of a seventh son") were just terrific. Ticket sales were excellent, so a "Best of" of those days seems to make sense these days. But let's be honest: this is just either for total neophytes or for the real fanatic who just must have any output of the band featuring Eddie (who -admittedly- looks very cool on this one). After all, a lot of smashers and highlights are missing on this cd. On the other hand, songs like "Run to the hills", "The trooper", "Powerslave" or "Can i play with madness" and the respective albums should be a household name in any metal record collection anyway. Another drawback of "Somewhere back in time": the original studio recordings of "Phantom of the opera" and "Iron Maiden" with Paul Di Anno have been replaced by live versions with Bruce Dickinson.
