#IronMaiden . “The Prisoner.” 1982. Hammersmith. Brian May once described those dramatic pauses between the chords as “hot space”. Neal Peart literally relearned the drums to fully appreciate the space between the beat. The swing of it all. Similarly, Iron Maiden did it here…
#IronMaiden . As soon as Bruce says “so it shall be written, so it shall be done..” you have precisely 2 minutes to go pee or get another beer before the song gets good again 🤪
#NewModelArmy . “I Love The World.” 1996. Amazing track. For a deep cut this tune gets some mileage — thanks also to the brilliant #Anacrusis cover. Justin Sullivan on vox here - so intense & focused on the audience. That chorus is a real ear worm too. Crank this 🌎
#FrankZappa . “Stevie’s Spanking.” 1981. NYC. Steve Vai was Frank’s understudy from 80 - 83. He’s only 21 in this clip. Goes to show that his extraterrestrial space-brain fusion style actually went on hold w/ Alcatrazz, DLR & Whitesnake until he went solo in the 90s 👁️⃤
#AliceInChains . “Down in a Hole.” 1996. Unplugged. Honestly, it’s hard to watch now. That depressed gaze. The heroin coursing through his veins. “Bury me softly in this womb… I’d like to fly but my wings have been so denied” 🕊️
