I remember back in highschool my headphones broke, so I could only listen to Adrian before sleep on the Live after Death. The clear separation made me appreciate both guitarist even more
Love how you have Adrian's playing isolated! I agree..he never got the camera exposure live Davey. Love the way his sound is gritty with more distortion. Awesome player! Was bummed when he left in the 90's.
I couldnt agree more! Dave was always more exposed in footages than H... He deserved more exposure. Despite when we watch Maiden England, than its all perfect, in my opinion... But its sad to see it :(
I absolutely love this album, live after death is so bad ass, recorded at long beach arena for 4 sold out nights, yes this is on Adrian's channel, you can hear Dave on one channel and Adrian on the next channel when listening to it on a stereo or headphones, Iron Maiden are my favorite metal band of all time, this song is so bad ass right off the bat!
The real fact is this: Great guitarrist, but the magic is when you hear both parts together, their tones are the right couple. And the rhythm section (bass guitar and drums) is the bed. Bruce??? Bruce is The born child.
I wonder if Smith and Murray played the clean guitar parts by turning down the volume knobs or changing amp channels but kept some grit in there. Smiths rhythm playing is tight
Back in the days, the turned the volume down. Recently, there is a switch on the channels (at least in Adrian’s case). You can hear it clearly on the Adrian Smith Guitar Channel on Coming Home (En Vivo). You can find it on YT. Cheers!
I just wish this was the actual album version and not the video version...don't get me wrong, both versions are magnificent just like Maiden and Smith are,but I miss that third note pinch harmonic right after the slow part from the Interlude...that really changes the whole thing and makes it sound more passionate and more rock n roll in a way..check it out for yourself, up the irons!
Ha - Funny - I'm the opposite! It's my fave AS solo so I prefer the album version (no pinch harmonic) - I love this isolated one. Smith's vibrato is brilliant, and the way his tone just swirls around when he bends during the solo is fabulous.
I have the .mogg file for the album version, there's about 14 separate tracks on there alone. The clean part Adrian plays backing Dave's first solo is just....magic tone, man
I know exactly what you mean even though it is 25 years since I last heard it - forever stuck in my head! Just sets the whole solo off and takes it to next level.
I never realized how much high-mid he played with. Holy smokes, it's almost shrill. In the mix it sounds good, but I don't know if I personally could do that for a guitar tone.
I wore this vhs concert out. I ripped it to dvd and still have it. Sadly, seems Dave wanted the spotlight and in editing, you'll notice Adrian is cut out from a lot of his leads, with focus on Dave and everyone else, then a quick 5 seconds as Adrian finishes. Of course every Murray lead you see in full.
you're the 1st person I've ever heard of that noticed that as well...drove me nuts back then. Still love Dave and the entire band...just poor editing I'd say. Many different camera angles for the Long Beach shows. Up the Irons!
I noticed that as well.. same on the Hammersmith show in 1982.. H was almost completely cut out. I think Bruce said on stage that he had some broken rips on that show, so maybe he didn't want to be seen in that condition, not able to perform with 100%? Fantastic guitar sound here btw, love the Lado guitar he used in 1984/1985!
I read that the film stock of the camera that filmed Adrian during the Hammersmith concert was lost or destroyed or something like that, so he's only seen when one of the other cameras happened to film him.
love to get this bad quality fan filtered from a 35 years old record.. but it s not fair to what was the moment and real technical feeling of the playing and crowd hearing..
ADRIAN THE BEST GUITARIST IN MAIDEN BY FAR AND A NICE GUY I LOVE DAVE TOO BUT GERS DOESNT SUIT THE BAND AND HIS LEAD BREAKS ARENT ANYTHING SPECIAL EITHER
Adrian Smith is also the best songwriter out of the '3 amigos'. I do like Janick Gers though and I think all 3 guitarists have a place in the band and complement each other. Gers comes up with some unusual sounds and ideas. Nearly 30 years of service - he's part of the furniture now!
Kon Adam I'm 50 years old grew up in Long Beach Riverside in the 80s listen to every metal band there was an Iron Maiden surpasses by far every metal band from that area lyrics to singing instrumental Beyond anything anybody was doing at the time Iron Maiden rock on I will always love you
@@Endo-uu8mo listen to the Spotify one, and listen the solo than clean up your ears, im not saying that it's not Adrian in live after death, i'm saying that it's another version
I remember back in highschool my headphones broke, so I could only listen to Adrian before sleep on the Live after Death. The clear separation made me appreciate both guitarist even more
Yeah, I used to do the same with my broke Iphone earphone, his playing is so smooth yet agressive
great comment!
3:47
So underrated. I loved the stereo between Dave and Adrian. The '80s were so great!
H is just something else, great tone and superb vibrato. What a great combination between him and Davy. Absolutely brilliant band.
Live after Death, the ultimate live album
That's why this is the best-ever hard-rock and metal live performance ever recorded.
no. just no
It very well could be...
Agreed
Yeah
Ozzy Osbourne/Randy Rhoades Tribute
Steve's bass is awesome on this song too.
Amazing. Adrian is the best!
My favorite guitarist.
Best Adrian’s solo.. this kinda “dirty” sound was mindblowind back in the day
Easily my favorite of Maiden´s guitar players
Mine too.
By far
@@alejandromarinetti8622 Nope,Dave is undisputed
Dave Dave Dave
I rate them song by song on their lead breaks.
Dave wins this song, but Adrian wins as many overall. Very tight race.
Adrian Smith is truly the greatest guitarist in Iron Maiden!!! 🎸🎼🎵🎶🤘🤘
Agree
Dave Murray is a close second, his fretting hand speed on leads is impressive- no mistakes!
@@stinkstank5177 I totally agree with you! Adrian and Dave are the best! 🤘🤘
both Murray and Smith you need both to get the magic of the real IRON MAIDEN
@@Endo-uu8mo Yes. I completely agree with you. 😁👍
The Tone on this album WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love how you have Adrian's playing isolated! I agree..he never got the camera exposure live Davey. Love the way his sound is gritty with more distortion. Awesome player! Was bummed when he left in the 90's.
rallypoint1 but I sure was happy he came back to play with Bruce and then rejoining Maiden.
I couldnt agree more! Dave was always more exposed in footages than H... He deserved more exposure. Despite when we watch Maiden England, than its all perfect, in my opinion... But its sad to see it :(
I have always liked Adrian he is absolute class Lee Hambleton from Sheffield
I absolutely love this album, live after death is so bad ass, recorded at long beach arena for 4 sold out nights, yes this is on Adrian's channel, you can hear Dave on one channel and Adrian on the next channel when listening to it on a stereo or headphones, Iron Maiden are my favorite metal band of all time, this song is so bad ass right off the bat!
He's a fucking badass.
Love this track and Aye’dren’s live sound is so raw in this. That transition at 4:10 is so catchy and melodious.
What a great solo
It took me years to realize that Dave's solo got all the glory, but Adrian's was low-key the best one.

The medleys give me chills man
awesome
Live after death is my favorite live album, besides Ozzy Osbourne Randy Rhoades Tribute.
Oh man. ‘Tribute’. If CD’s could be worn out…

Adrian Smith is the world best heavy metal Lead Guitarist in Europe & the world.
Noticed
my first maiden album
I wore this vhs concert out. I ripped it to dvd and still have it.

I highly doubt Dave had a say in any of this.
I noticed that as well.. same on the Hammersmith show in 1982.. H was almost completely cut out. I think Bruce said on stage that he had some broken rips on that show, so maybe he didn't want to be seen in that condition, not able to perform with 100%?

Mr Coatsworth Wow, never heard of that.. Another mystery is solved. Thanks for the reply :)
Violentamente violento
Adrian é foda krl
love to get this bad quality fan filtered from a 35 years old record.. but it s not fair to what was the moment and real technical feeling of the playing and crowd hearing..
No one cares about this Murray vs Smith vs Gers bs. Get on with it and just enjoy the music man.
Who did you do this
Magic.
I never appreciated Adrian Smith enough...Goes to show you that note selection rules
This is not an isolated track. It's just right channel mono lol.

Kon Adam that's true my friend.
Kon Adam Dave Murray is the best guitarist in Maiden followed closely by Smith.
Adrian Smith is also the best songwriter out of the '3 amigos'. I do like Janick Gers though and I think all 3 guitarists have a place in the band and complement each other. Gers comes up with some unusual sounds and ideas. Nearly 30 years of service - he's part of the furniture now!

Agree
I don't think it's exactly live after death cause he doesn't hit the pinch harmonic as he did it in live
that is live after death,clean up your ears Dude
@@Endo-uu8mo listen to the Spotify one, and listen the solo than clean up your ears, im not saying that it's not Adrian in live after death, i'm saying that it's another version
the record release and the video were recorded in 2 different nights
guitar only? i hear all of them
I think they meant to say, it's only his guitar playing, Dave Murray's guitar is removed on this audio.
You don't hear Dave.
i doubt thats the original
better than dave murray, dave has not good down picking/palm mute
they are a guitar Duo you moron play as good as Murray and sell millions records lol
