Three CDs. Paul Di'Anno's name will probably always be inextricably linked to that of Iron Maiden, the world conquering metal band he fronted from 1978-1981, recording their first two ground-breaking albums. Di'Anno fronted a series of bands in the early 1980s before forming Battlezone in 1985. Signing to Powerstation Records, they released Fighting Back in 1986, produced with Ian Richardson. The group then released 1987's Children Of Madness, for Raw Power. Unfortunately, the band were unable to capitalize on their hard work and split up shortly after. Joining forces with Battlezone's Graham Bath and Steve Hopgood, Paul Di'Anno's new band, Killers, was completed by Cliff Evans on bass and Gavin Cooper on guitar, that line up is featured on CD3 recorded live at Los Angeles' Whisky A Go Go in 2000. A real treat for Iron Maiden fans, the band revisits and embraces the songs that originally made their singer famous alongside originals and cover versions. This set is completed with an essay from rock and NWOBHM expert, John Tucker.
