Iron Maiden - Last Batch Of '80s Vinyl Reissues On The Way


Parlophone Records (BMG/INgrooves Music Group for the USA) follow the 2012/13 Iron Maiden vinyl picture disc reissues of the first eight Iron Maiden albums, which spanned the 1980s, with brand new pressings of the albums in heavyweight 180g black vinyl. In conjunction with these premium album releases, a strictly limited one-off run of the 7" singles from each respective album will be made available. These highly collectable black vinyl singles will be cut from the original analogue master tapes. You can watch below two behind-the-scenes videos about the artwork and sound production of the new vinyl reissues.




The records are being released chronologically across a two month period which started on October 13th (14th USA) with the first 3 albums and the seven corresponding 7" singles:

  • Running Free b/w Burning Ambition
  • Sanctuary b/w Drifter (Live) and I've Got The Fire (Live)
  • Women In Uniform b/w Invasion
  • Twilight Zone/Wrathchild double A side
  • Purgatory b/w Genghis Khan
  • Run To The Hills b/w Total Eclipse
  • The Number Of The Beast b/w Remember Tomorrow (Live)

    Followed by:

    October 27th (28th USA): Piece Of Mind, Powerslave and Live After Death and the six corresponding 7" singles:

  • Flight Of Icarus b/w I've Got The Fire
  • The Trooper b/w Cross-Eyed Mary
  • 2 Minutes To Midnight b/w Rainbow's Gold
  • Aces High b/w King Of Twilight
  • Running Free (Live) b/w Sanctuary (Live)
  • Run To The Hills (Live) b/w Phantom Of The Opera (Live)

    November 24th (25th USA): Somewhere In Time and Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son and the six corresponding 7" singles:

  • Wasted Years b/w Reach Out
  • Stranger In A Strange Land b/w That Girl

  • The Evil That Men Do b/w Prowler '88
  • The Clairvoyant b/w The Prisoner (Live)
  • Infinite Dreams (Live) b/w Killers (Live)




    Coupled with the end of the Maiden England World Tour which began in North America in 2012 and finished at Knebworth Park's Sonisphere Festival, this now completes Maiden's 1980's touring and catalogue reissues cycle, so the band can focus on their future plans.

    After what I saw both videos, I think, I'll buy all of them. Right now I have only Seventh Son Vinyl and it would be great to have complete Vinyl collection from 80's... most of the covers are brilliant and many of this records belong between my top favourite of all time.
