Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast / Beast Over Hammersmith (40th Anniversary)

Triple 180gm vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Features The Number Of The Beast PLUS the never before on vinyl Beast Over Hammersmith album which was recorded live days before the original release of The Number Of The Beast. BMG is delighted to announce the release of a commemorative triple black vinyl album in honor of the 40th Anniversary of Iron Maiden's seminal third album, The Number Of The Beast, which was also the first to feature Bruce Dickinson on vocals and was to become the record which catapulted the band to international stardom. Included in the new vinyl package is Beast Over Hammersmith - available now officially for the very first time on vinyl - featuring the live concert from March 1982's now legendary Hammersmith Odeon London show from the Beast On The Road World Tour. Recorded only days before the release of The Number Of The Beast album, it's remarkable to think these now classic songs at that time were still brand new, unfamiliar and being heard live by fans for the very first time. A real piece of history in the making.
