    Cool, it's the best acoustic Maiden I've heard since " The Number Of The Beast " intro soundtrack for the movie " Spun ".

    Unplugged trooper that bruce and the boys would be nodding in approval im sure. Especially as myles has incorporated both lead guitars in his interpretation.. and thats insane.
