Dianno Maiden is the essence of Iron Maiden. Iron Maiden and Killers albums are masterpieces. For me, the best Maiden Albums, althoug I love all Maiden did with Bruce. It is just a different thing, its much more comercial and for a bigger audience. But the raw and real Maiden for me is with Paul.
I hear you. My first introduction to Iron Maiden was Number of the beast in about 82 when I was 13. Wouldn't have made it that far without Di'Anno. Respect.
soooooo i understand that u prefer Maiden to stay in small pub giggs and small audience just to keep pungy rebellion style ….. dude. Maiden have big audience not cause they making music for commercial bussines but cause they making music just as they want and adience comes along its hard not to listen to good music and those tons of ppl on concerts didnt bought tickets cause they have guns next to their heads. Stop taking this era was better than that its only ur oppinion. All former members need to be remembered good cause theyre part of a legend. All 17 albums differs somehow and somehow when i listen to first two i think im listening to one big album cause they have strict same style 🤷🏼♂️ but its my oppinion. i have all live and studio albums on playlist and never skip any track i listen all songs from first note to the last :)
@@bersewrker88 kkkk....so you do believe Maiden makes music only because they want and the audience is a consequence?? Kkkk....well, let me show you the REAL World. Maiden makes music first of all to earn MONEY. When Bruce entered the band, they went for a different style do you know WHY? Yes, you got it, because they targeted a bigger audience with more comercial music. They CLEARLY wanted to become BIG and why they wanted to become BIG? WHY? YESSSS.....to get Tons of money.....this is the real truth...I'm not saying that it is a bad thing, no....I love all the albums with Bruce. BTW all bands do music for money. They change what they like for money. But in those first 2 Maiden albums it was everything from the heart, from the soul, zero bullshit..that was true and 100% Maiden. Maybe now Maiden is really doing music for pure love....you see Senjutsu? Its not a comercial record with those BIG tracks...its clearly a album made to satisfy their needs...Maiden dont need money anymore....but in 1980 they wanted BIG MONEY for sure.
@@digiman76 dude u cant make big giggs without cash and stuff. Ill ask one more time , u wished that Maiden kept playing in small pubs ??? Ofc making money is a part of being musician that determines pros from amateurs. Guitars drums stage stuff it costs. Every band wishes for a big audience and whats false and not from the heart here ?? Thousands pol listening to ur playig and singing is every band wish come true plus Maiden having fun with ppl during concert . Only reason why Dianno was out of Maiden was his choice , he chose drugs and other stuff over band and fans so he is responsible for ending that dramatic deep from the heart stuff era :/
@@bersewrker88 When you release a new music album every fucking year then you do it for money. So simple. A self-respecting musician does not push the quality of his creativity so that he releases a music album every fucking year. The Iron Maiden from the Number of the Beast and then became a money-making machine. Not bad music but nothing really really special as the first three albums… Regarding Paul di Anno he was the only one where his mold could be compared to the huge Lemi. Completely original, rough and Rock & Roll. That's all…..
It would be interesting to see how things would have gone for them if they had carried on with Paul. I think they would have had a Motorhead level of success. I'm not sure if they would have become the arena filling band that they are today.
@@chriswilkinson7636 well it wouldn’t be necessarily bad The metal-punk-rock vibe they had was really awesome Wish they had made more songs like Phantom OTO and Charlotte TH
Exactly my man, the only albums I have left are the two with Di’Anno and Live After Death. Bruce is by far the better singer but the two albums are the best and his voice suited the punkier edge to the music.
This the DRIFTER EP. This was released a couple weeks before the first album here in the States. When I went to buy the first album the next day after hearing it, this was all the record store had available. This is why I consider myself one of America’s first Maiden fans.
Well I wish when I die I’ll go to another dimension where Iron Maiden went on with Paul DiAnno and Clive Burr I just cannot imagine how far (towards a different direction) they would have gone... towards a more punk-hard rock-raw heavy metal. I believe I’m not the only one who thinks there are two completely different Iron Maiden’s, but yet still the same band
it would be nice but ultimately maiden wouldn’t be where they are today if they’d kept di’anno and burr. they wouldn’t have been able to keep up with the tour schedule because of their habits
Saw them in '80 or '81 (not sure, mind's a bit of a blur nowadays) in Belgium, in the Roma in Borgerhout (off all places) and in all honesty, best gig I ever saw!
The 1st album has some beautiful guitar work too. Very different band they were before Number of the Beast. I agree, first two albums are incredibly good!
They did two nights at the Marquee in May 1980. The Drifter B side was recorded on one of these nights - I presume this video is one of them nights so it's 50/50! - great gig. My band were rehearsing once in Leytonstone Allan Gordon's in 1979 - there was this beautiful racket coming from the next room - it was this lot!
Thanks for uploading, what an incredible original line up. This video is just pure masterpiece from a time when these guys were just doing what they dreamed of doing. who would have thought how big and how great they would all turn out to become, in name and memory, obviously not forgetting past members who forged the sound of this iconic band. I always try to imagine what Iron Maiden would sound like today if Paul DiAnno and Clive Burr were still in the band, Clive Burr would unfortunately still have had MS, but who knows, its hard to imagine Iron Maidens greatness without Bruce, but again knows. A classic video that needs to remain here for all to enjoy👌
Lyrics: Drifter Look out now baby won't you take me away, Sitting here I think it's gonna be a new day. Gonna get my song 'til I can't go on, Gonna keep on roaming gotta sing my song. What you feeling when you hold me tight, Gonna cuddle up to you tonight. Gonna get you feeling so secure. Listen child, don't you see there's a cure. Anywhere got to get you away, Feels so good, think it's gonna be a new day. Gonna get my song 'til I cant go on, Gonna keep on roaming gotta sing my song. What you feeling when you hold me tight, I wanna cuddle up to you tonight. Gonna get you feeling so secure. Listen child, don't you see there's a cure. Anywhere got to get you away, Feels so good, think it's gonna be a new day. Gonna get my song 'til I cant go on, Gonna keep on roaming gotta sing my song. Gonna sing my song yeah, And it won't take long. Gonna sing my song yeah, Won't you sing along. I want you to sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it along.
I know, I know everything about Bruce, but there something special thing with DiAnno era that can be missed or replicated that I love. Well I discovered Maiden and NWOBHM in 79
Fase em que Iron era apenas uma banda. Hoje é uma empresa não que isso esteja errado pois conquistaram tudo o que possuem com todos os méritos e empregam muitas pessoas gerando oportunidades a quem vive da musica. Particularmente amo essa fase com o Paul mas é inegável que Bruce levou o Maiden a um outro patamar. Essa é a raiz da banda e como tal tem que ser sim muito respeitada e reconhecida.
Tenho que admitir que há um abismo entre os dois, tecnicamente Bruce Dickinson é muito melhor, mas o primeiro disco e o killers do iron Maiden foram os dois primeiros discos de metal que eu escutei no início da década de 90, e hoje depois de três décadas ainda são os meus preferidos, Paul Di'anno foi único.
@@mauriciopereira4377 essa fase do Paul é especial para mim pois eu diria que foi graças a ela que foi despertado a vontade de mergulhar fundo no universo da música pesada e hoje com 48 anos sigo nessa estrada, algo que não conseguiria imaginar lá pelos idos de 1984.
This would be the best use of a time machine. Just go back and see these early concerts. I bet one more bloke in the audience wouldn't upset the time line.
My fave album. Missed Paul show saw Number in New York. There is no universe with Paul and Maiden 45 years later because Paul wasn’t a professional and had no dedication. This line up and energy … well you feel it. Would of been a different Maiden sound. But Bruce made them a lasting Metal band and has more to do with their success than Paul. And Denis Stratton not Adrian so pretty cool video. Best band ever.
So fucking Good Iron maiden with dianno was almost fucking punk band insane. Dianno was a fucking unbleivabley unique singer fuckin motorhead the only thing that comes close
There's something about Maiden with Di'Anno
Brought a punk feel to the songs
Yeah, the fucking heavy Drugs
🤘🤘🤘
Definitely!
That is right, there is something little speacial in his voice, but love bruce dikinson...Good guy, you..greatings from germany

Somewhere in a parallel universe, Paul DiAnno remained with Iron Maiden. I would love to visit that universe for a while.
See my videos and vimeo page for some alternate Di'anno Maiden album versions.
Haaa I just wrote something in this terms
I really wish we could see that...
I love Bruce but in a way I prefer PaulDiAnno
It would be interesting to see how things would have gone for them if they had carried on with Paul. I think they would have had a Motorhead level of success. I'm not sure if they would have become the arena filling band that they are today.
@@chriswilkinson7636 That's ok ... or at least if they had had a second era with Paul after Blaze left.
@@chriswilkinson7636 well it wouldn’t be necessarily bad
The metal-punk-rock vibe they had was really awesome
Wish they had made more songs like Phantom OTO and Charlotte TH
Paul gave Maiden such a raw heaviness. Probably the Sex Pistol effect. Hence the first two albums are easily my favorites.
Agreed
Mine too. By far.
those first two albums. send shivers down my spine.
Yep.. same here...every time.
Clive Burr is the best Drummer in the 80's. RIP Clive Burr.
Bro, You said that about Niko McBrain too.
But in that case you said he was the worlds best drummer in the world.
@@pauliescott Neil peart.
Nico is not far behind though..
@@GunGoBang point missed
@@pauliescott
Opinion.
@@GunGoBang point missed again
Go back and read all that guys comments.
He says every drummer is the world's best drummer in the world
The best times for iron maiden whit Paul DiAno and Clive Burr 💯 💯 💯
The older I get the more think the first 2 records + maiden japan are their best work
Without a doubt...🤘
100%
No Question
One of the best maiden’s track!!
It's punk punk punk...and metal.
Shhh. Don’t tell Harris. He hates the “Punk Rock” label.
Exactly my man, the only albums I have left are the two with Di’Anno and Live After Death. Bruce is by far the better singer but the two albums are the best and his voice suited the punkier edge to the music.

Frickin' Awesome!!!! Paul Di'anno Rocks!!! This is the reason I got into Iron Maiden in the 1st place back in High School!!
And Then Metallica Came Along
Well I wish when I die I’ll go to another dimension where Iron Maiden went on with Paul DiAnno and Clive Burr
I just cannot imagine how far (towards a different direction) they would have gone... towards a more punk-hard rock-raw heavy metal.
I believe I’m not the only one who thinks there are two completely different Iron Maiden’s, but yet still the same band
Yeah and dennis stratton..he taught dave murray how to play metal guitar, after all
There are too many great IM albums. But i keep coming back to Di'Anno era. Idk why, I just love the raw punk rough edgy tone from the early days.
it would be nice but ultimately maiden wouldn’t be where they are today if they’d kept di’anno and burr. they wouldn’t have been able to keep up with the tour schedule because of their habits
This is one of there underrated songs that bass is so blusy and those guitar riffs just get your head and body moving what an excellent and fun track
When They Had Talent
My favorite from Killers
The roots of Iron Maiden. A much more deeper, darkness and rough band, at the time! They should never lose this soul!
Maiden should have kept these roots and not go comercial. This is really special.
The Brave New World album had some great stuff on it. Not polished, nor long songs that bore you...like a lot of the later Bruce albums
Saw them in '80 or '81 (not sure, mind's a bit of a blur nowadays) in Belgium, in the Roma in Borgerhout (off all places) and in all honesty, best gig I ever saw!
What amazing track and live performance. Maiden at its best.
My favorite Maiden song off my favorite album of them too.
The 1st album has some beautiful guitar work too. Very different band they were before Number of the Beast. I agree, first two albums are incredibly good!
Best album, best line up, best title track, best bside, and best cover Eddy
One of my fav maiden songs...And black n white increases the awesomeness quotient tenfold....Killers!!!!
Paul Di’anno and Clive Burr forever!!!
After a hellish day today this brings a smile 😀 to my face! This is beyond GREAAT
Thanks Di Anno for this true Iron Maiden
Di’anno is one of the greatest singers ever. Don’t care.
Unfortunately, there's always at least one ass hat in the bunch that 'thumbs down' a video, no matter how great it is.
Absolute Masterpiece
This is so powerful, so badass, so punk!!!
Iron Maiden is the world best heavy metal band in the world.
J'écoute ce titre depuis 30 ans, jamais lassé. Heavy punk!
moi depuis sa sortie, j ai 60 ans!
The best metal band ever for a reason… Up the Irons 🤘🏼🇬🇧
Chills.. nothing but chills....
Burr and Harris just burst this song open totally in sync. 👍👍
They did two nights at the Marquee in May 1980. The Drifter B side was recorded on one of these nights - I presume this video is one of them nights so it's 50/50! - great gig.
My band were rehearsing once in Leytonstone Allan Gordon's in 1979 - there was this beautiful racket coming from the next room - it was this lot!

WOW,THIS TIME SO BIG FANBASE❤ THX GOD SORRY EDDIE FOR IRON MAIDEN MY RELIGION❤❤❤ REST IN POWER CLIVE
PURE ENERGY

Another day … another Victory for the OG !!! DiAnno Stratton But ❤❤❤
Maiden was punk rock metal with Di’Anno. Would had been interesting to see how they would had done if he had stayed in the band.
They needed hits and loney
Money*
Don't tell Steve Harris that.
Paul Di'Anno the best voice of Iron Maiden, ever
Of course
No. One of the two best, sorry for u.
@@evil_chuck My opinion, sorry for you
É SENSACIONAL , VER A REAÇÃO DO PÚBLICO ...... 😎✌
The Best son of heavy rock!!!!!
Lyrics:
Drifter
Look out now baby won't you take me away,
Sitting here I think it's gonna be a new day.
Gonna get my song 'til I can't go on,
Gonna keep on roaming gotta sing my song.
What you feeling when you hold me tight,
Gonna cuddle up to you tonight.
Gonna get you feeling so secure.
Listen child, don't you see there's a cure.
Anywhere got to get you away,
Feels so good, think it's gonna be a new day.
Gonna get my song 'til I cant go on,
Gonna keep on roaming gotta sing my song.
What you feeling when you hold me tight,
I wanna cuddle up to you tonight.
Gonna get you feeling so secure.
Listen child, don't you see there's a cure.
Anywhere got to get you away,
Feels so good, think it's gonna be a new day.
Gonna get my song 'til I cant go on,
Gonna keep on roaming gotta sing my song.
Gonna sing my song yeah,
And it won't take long.
Gonna sing my song yeah,
Won't you sing along.
I want you to sing it,
sing it, sing it, sing it along.
To be honest I prefer Dianno Maiden, raw as fuck and truly brilliant
Fantastic high energy Maiden the way it should be.
Incredible! Brilliant video.
Che ricordi, grazie paul quando ancora stavo bene
Vote for Iron Maiden!

There's just something about these first two albums. They have an unapologetically british counterculture spirit quality to them.
No Di'Anno, no Maiden, it's that simple.
I agree 💯
Love the way clive shakes peoples hands very cool🤟🤟🤟
Rock and Roll .. oh yeah 🔥🎸🔥
Thank you to w/e uploaded this gem!!! I am so appreciative
You're welcome. Maiden with Di'Anno rules.
Dianno was a true singer Bruce is a showman paul sung with his heart
Purement exceptionnel !!!!!
This would be the best use of a time machine. Just go back and see these early concerts. I bet one more bloke in the audience wouldn't upset the time line.
One of my IM favorites
I wish i had a time machine
Fantastic video, thanks
!!!!!!!!!!! Paul!!.... ✌️🎸
World best double Lead Guitars in the world.
My fave album. Missed Paul show saw Number in New York. There is no universe with Paul and Maiden 45 years later because Paul wasn’t a professional and had no dedication. This line up and energy … well you feel it.
Would of been a different Maiden sound. But Bruce made them a lasting Metal band and has more to do with their success than Paul. And Denis Stratton not Adrian so pretty cool video. Best band ever.
The Di'anno years remind me how "punk" they sounded for a metal band!
The guitar solo is totally blowing ming.Iron `Maiden Fucking Great.
Agree. Just appreciatie Iron Maiden and Killers for what it was and move on from there.
The Best band ever exists
thank you!!!
crowd is crazy up the irons
Would love to hear more about this 1980 live "Drifter" song featuring Dennis Stratton vs The 1981 Killers LP featuring Adrian Smith on guitar.
Dennis is on the UK Sanctuary 7" single and the Japanese Live + One 12"
Punk rock influence in the early days
Its so great
Great song! fucking jack hammer, bad ass, loud! So fucking underrated! Iron Maiden, powerful British heavy metal band! Up the irons!
I love all things Iron Maiden. But…First 2 albums are special to me.
People talk shit….Dickson is great…but those first two albums with Di’Anno are fucking amazing
any chance to see any of this records as a whole show
The BBC probably shit-canned the raw footage.
@@videoaudiomaster it was from a show called 20th century box on the itv region of London weekend television
Stave bass playing is so good
Ah si la machine à remonter le temps existait !
MAIDEN ... Where Metal began
#Fact
fuckin Paul tourin this fall and doing the entire first Maiden album in it's entirety......... fuckin yeah......
So fucking Good Iron maiden with dianno was almost fucking punk band insane. Dianno was a fucking unbleivabley unique singer fuckin motorhead the only thing that comes close
All of the above
Paul Di'Anno is the best heavy metal Lead Vocalist in the 80's.
Now that's the MAIDEN I KNOW!! 🤩🤟
The Birth of a MaidenNation
Fxcking awesome raw and in your face old school maiden
GREAT
absolutely fucking good job fella!
Grande Paul the best
Somewhere beetween 1976-1981...
THE BEST PERIOD OF MUSIC HISTORY ...
yup...RIP Bon
1968-1982
just want 2 say soz cos i put new strange world n its jst strange world! 😉
Every band is hungry from the start
Look at how close the crowd is compared to today where they play in open air stadiums will a massive gap between the stage and the audience.
I think that has to do with safety. After the whole Dimebag thing happened they had to tighten security.
Nowt to do with dime. It's health and safety regulations
Iron Maiden devastador!
look at those heads - that was it
So relateable without costumes and big puppets on stage😎
There is Loopy, beside the drum kit.
Paul sempre vai ter mais a cara do Iron Maiden do que o Bruce :(
Steve Harris is the world best master Bass Guitarist in the world.
Melhor disco do Iron Paul dianno killers
