 (20 Customer Reviews)
Iron Maiden issued its fifth release, POWERSLAVE, in 1984. It was a time in which the band had become a worldwide arena-headlining sensation. The album was also the first to not have been marked by a lineup change, helping Maiden produce another metal classic.
While most other metal bands of the era were still singing about partying, Maiden continued to tackle some serious, thought-provoking subject matter. The band addresses the threat of nuclear war on "2 Minutes to Midnight," World War II-era fighter pilots in the album-opening "Aces High," and the demise of an Egyptian king in the title track. But the true highlight is the long and winding 13-and-a-half-minute epic "Rime of the Ancient Mariner," a track that does a great job of recreating the haunting imagery of the Samuel Taylor Coleridge tale. Once POWERSLAVE was released, Maiden undertook one of the longest rock tours in history, playing from August 1984 through July 1985.

| | Iron Maiden Fear Of The Dark CD (1992) Enhanced CD
Powerslave
$12.15
Although alternative rock was burning up the charts in 1992, longtime metallist outfit Iron Maiden admirably stuck to its guns with FEAR OF THE DARK. This effort follows in the path of 1990's NO PRAYER FOR THE DYING, as Maiden again sticks to more simple compositions, avoiding the more ambitious songwriting tendencies that marked the group's late-'80s work. The album-opening "Be Quick or Be Dead" recalls the work of such younger speed metal bands as Megadeth, while "From Here to Eternity" is one of Maiden's few forays into tales of sex and sin, a la Guns N' Roses. Unfortunately, Singer Bruce Dickinson quit the band after the ensuing tour (although he and guitarist Adrian ...

| | Twila Paris Bedtime Prayers: Lullabies & Peaceful Worship CD (2001)
Powerslave
$14.35
While singer and songwriter Twila Paris' albums have employed musical styles ranging from inspirational hymns to adult contemporary songs, each project has targeted a broad audience and not catered to any particular group. However, with Bedtime Prayers: Lullabies and Peaceful Worship, Paris has specifically geared the album toward new mothers and young children. Her aim being to assist parents in teaching their children Biblically based foundational truths that can be carried with them the rest of their lives. The album is beautifully orchestrated, featuring Paris' trademark piano melodies paired with moderate tempos and the vocal vulnerability present on all she sings. Musically, it best reflects a blending of inspirational praise and worship with the gentle, soothing style associated with lullabies. ...

Classical, show, jazz, folk. . . Soundtracks/ From Russia With Love and Hatari. Big boozy parties. . . and this guy at the piano. . Handsome Jimmy. He could play it all. Took requests from a highball glass. Playing the the Hawaiin War Chant. The rumble in the jungle. This was New Canaan but they would all dance like they'd been drink'in Love Potion # 9. And Handsome Jimmy with the women around him like bees around honey. . well that clinched it. That's who I wanted to be. . . that is if I couldn't be 007-- James Bond. And then the bands. . I'd here it in the night coming off the top of this hill and I'd go to where the sound was coming from and there they were. . the Earles. . . playing the Ventures and the Kingsmen. This was money for nothing. This is the magnet that draws you in. . . easy money and endless chicks digging your close to the surface emotional musk.
