Album Notes This is an Enhanced CD which contains regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. The Enhanced portion includes music videos for "Run To The Hills" and "Number Of The Beast."Iron Maiden: Bruce Dickinson (vocals); Dave Murray, Adrian Smith (guitar); Steve Harris (bass); Clive Burr (drums).Engineers: Martin "Farmer" Birch, Nigel "It Wasn't Working Yesterday" Hewitt-Green.Recorded at Battery Studios, London, England.Digitally remastered by Simon Heyworth (Chop 'Em Out).1982's THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST remains one of heavy metal's all-time classics. Although the British quintet was in the midst of enjoying its first taste of global success, original singer Paul Di'Anno abruptly quit in 1981. Though stunned, the young band wisely agreed to soldier on, making ex-Samson singer Bruce Dickinson their new frontman. Nicknamed "The Air Raid Siren," Dickinson's voice was to become one of the band's most prominent signature characteristics. It also didn't hurt that the band had composed some of its best songs ever, such as the haunting title song, and its first U.K. Top-10 single, "Run to the Hills." Other highlights include the sinister "Children of the Damned," the melodic "The Prisoner," and the album-closing epic "Hallowed Be Thy Name."
