Hey everyone! Hope this finds you all well. Today's short is a very special one. So while I sit here listening amd cleaning some records, why not? Sorry for the crude video. It's just spontaneous while I am inspired. One of my faves of all time and I guess a tribute of sorts to the recent passing of Iron Maidens original studio recorded vocalist, the one and only Paul Di'Anno. R.I.P. man. Say hi to Clive for us Edheads! Up The Irons!!

I can't possible describe what these albums meant to me back then...and do in such a different way now. Some of you will relate, I know from your comments. These first two albums capture everything of what is was to be a young teenager with it's oozing rebellion, exploration and raw devil may care attitude! I'd suggest they are timeless...but I only know my time in those ealry 80's. Few before and none since has a band meant so much to me (with respect to a few before and after...namely Sabbath, Ozzy, Metallica, Dio, Zeppelin, AC/DC, Sweet, Motorhead, VH, Crue, to name but a few). I mentioned in my last video I felt I wanted to do a proper tribute, but that I also decided against it ultimately as there are tons here on Youtube. So this is just in observance of one of my all time fave bands and vocalist. I may put up a proper needle drop tribute but not a lot of me blabbering about. We'll see.

Anyway. It's Friday! The weekend is here. To kick it off, I hope you dig this one as much as I always have. Though I'd argue every track on their debut, the follow-up Killers are equally or near and dear to yours truly. Thanks for taking the time to watch, and also like & comment if you decide to.

See you next time everybody. Take care!

Cheers! 🍻✌️
