    I have a soft spot for it. '93 was such a strange time; heavy metal was largely out of the public's taste, but I remember Wasting Love on MTV. I remember Vanessa Warwick interviewing Steve Harris on Headbanger's Ball.
    Maiden was trying new things, which I appreciate. I like about half the songs. I actually quite like the Apparition; a rock-y vibe that is different for them.

    Of course it's a matter of taste but I love the album. It's hard to analyze it, I take it by heart :)

    I thought the AAA releases didn't start until "Hunky Dory"?

    The debut has number LPCENT35 so it is for sure one of the AAA releases.

    I've been eyeing on pulling the trigger on the Iron Maiden S/T EMI100 series from Discogs for awhile. I had it back in the day and sold it off along with The Number Of The Beast, although I own NOTB UK EMI original vinyl which as stated is the best sounding. What I need to do is get The X-Factor, Rock In Rio, Death On The Road and The Final Frontier to finish off my 1990-2015 box set

    I really like that album, but it suffers from a digital-sounding production...

    Correct me but West German 80s Maiden vinyl rarely disappoints.

    Yeah it's good sounding but in this case the original Japanese pressing betters it- JPN is definitely my go to version.

    No it's similar soundwise to the UK pressing but a bit better and the vinyl itself is super quiet.

    Yes. Both the 1st and the 2nd Japanese pressing sound similar and are as good as the other one soundwise.

    Record store guy quoted "Rhino" as the pressing of Somewhere in Time he could order. Is this BMG or Parlophone?

    Gold star to @DoF for keeping this thread alive!

    I was in a buying mood last saturday and checked out the bins for some of the new Maiden reissues, but unfortunately it looks like the albums that I am most interested in are the first to sell (Fear of the Dark, Final Frontier). Then again, it's not as if I am really lacking stuff to spin at the moment...

    No point askin', what's the game
    No point askin', who's to blame
