They indeed wanted Vincent Price to read the intro for the album, but he wanted 25.000 Pounds. So they got Barry Clayton who did a great job.
@MatthewLeeHanson Ah, a man of culture! :)
Oh wow i did not know that always thought it was Vincent price thanks for the info
He indeed did a grand job. I remember thinking "Was that Vincent?" when I first heard the song back in the day when the album was released.
Vincent Price would’ve been awesome
It took Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson kind of money to land Vincent Price.
One of the greatest live bands you will ever see. Bruce’s 4.25 octave vocal range on full display for all to marvel at.
When you said then audience looked absolutely stunned, you're spot on. This concert took place two days before The Number of the Beast album was actually released. This is the first time anyone in the general public had ever heard the song.
So it was the first Show with bruce maybe?
@@dietmartrinkaus7012 it was Bruce's first tour with Maiden. This was the 21st show of the Beast on the Road tour I think.
@@dietmartrinkaus7012 No, that took place on 26th of October, 1981 in Bolognia italy and there is part of it on video format on youtube and the whole concert on audio format.Hera are the links if you want to check them ua-cam.com/video/eoCTcpjyCZ0/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/DbZ_3iFF6ZI/v-deo.html
@@damot1051 That is correct, looking it up it appears that they did about 20 gigs on this tour before the album dropped. So, unless they had a different setlist for the first few dates I'm wrong in saying no had heard TNOTB before this; though it would be the first time for the vast majority of this audience hearing Number of the Beast material (other than Run to the Hills and Total Eclipse)
That audience was witnessing a historic event then.
Can we just acknowledge Steve Harris's amazing bass runs on this track? Fantastic production not to lose that, it is a driving force
Whenever someone says "can we" my answer is always no. Steve Harris bass runs are great but that doesn't mean I agree even if I do.
So I disagree with you but I think Steve Harris bass runs are great.
@@michaelmay5453 hmmmmm????
@@konradkanuckle5920 Think of it like this; In this universe there are particles that defy all laws of physics, these particles called gluons have no mass but make up about 1/3'rd of the mass of protons and neutrons. They come from nowhere, pop right into reality to assemble in a group of 8 colours and then pop right out again only to be replaced by new gluons popping into reality.
Does that clarify things?
Yes!!
I actually saw Maiden live during the Beast tour in 1982. Naturally it was a great concert. It’s been over 40 years but I can still see Eddie walking around the stage, scaring the Hell out if the audience.
Bruce is known as "The Human Air Raid Siren." Any questions? His vocals are so incredibly powerful... as a female vocalist, I have spent my life trying to match him with only moderate and infrequent success. I worship at his feet (especially when he's in the backward-bent fry-scream position!!) He's a one of a kind!
There are some legendary singers in metal that are very hard to copy or to eclipse, Bruce Dickinson is certainly one, Rob Halford comes to mind both are known for their incredible wide vocal range.
I am quite inexperienced in singing, and when I made my basic-level exam at the end of my seven-year journey that was music school. My voice only went lower, both in quality and in tone xD but I am trying.
Women are the majority of serious metal vocalist these days. You are carrying on the legacy of Jinx Dawson. Most men in metal aspire to be Frank Oz singing "Me Lost Me Cookie at the Disco".
Most women in metal aspire to get bruces cookie...eh?@@Bacopa68
The Month of Maiden was a fantastic idea. As a life long Maiden fan it's great to see someone experience all this for the first time while at the same time giving some insight through their vocal expertise. Great video.
Exactly! I love seeing someone fall in love with Maiden
I've been a fan since I was 15 and I turned 53 yesterday I couldn't agree with you more seeing them 19 times live rock on blood brother up the irons
I have seen Iron Maiden 7 times and left me wanting for nothing, they are always awesome. I was 6 months pregnant with my second daughter at the concert and my belly hurt from her kicking through the whole concert. Now they are one of her favorite bands. So much so I took her to the Somewhere back in Time tour in 2008 when she was 11 years. It was such a great mother daughter night out !!!
They are phenomenal I've seen him 19 times been a fan since I was 15 just turned 53 always a phenomenal show never will there be anyone better live then Maiden it's a theatrical work of art rock on blood sister up the irons
That's awesome. Both of my parents were/are metalheads so they accompanied me and my brothers to see Maiden TWICE. In 2010 when I was 12 years old and in 2012 when I was 14. Both unbelievably awesome nights. There's just nothing like seeing your favorite band live especially when it's with your family who loves them as well.
I bought tickets for their Legacy of the Beast tour for my mom and I. My mom has been a fan since she was about 10 yrs old, but she has never had the chance to see them live. Sadly we gotta wait until next year, because the concert got postponed until 2022. But we really can't wait!! Up the irons! 🤘
I lost count, but my best guess is 24 times.
Love it!! I took my daughter to see them two years ago on the Legacy tour. She was 10 at the time... I think she loved it nearly as much as I did. Such a special memory - my favorite band with my favorite person!
The Talisman En Vivo! One of Bruce’s best live performances!
Took the words out of my mouth!
Also "Run to the Hills" from Rock in Rio 2001. It wasn't part of the setlist, but the crowd really wanted it so they performed it impromptu and Bruce absolutely nails it. I subscribed.
You beat me to it. Awesome performance there
Ive been trying to get all of you vocal coaches to do Talisman for a long time now! About time!
The Talisman En Vivo HAS to be in this month. Spoiler alert: the song is so hard to perform live, that even Bruce isn't moving from the spot.
The studio version of this scream is unbelievable.
Maiden will always make me happy. They have for 30 years.
Bruce was STILL doing that high A scream 40 YEARS later - when nearly 70 years of age!
His scream in the production version of this song is the most metal thing ever.
Iron Maiden is the group that writes a song called Number of the Beast and uses the first 4 notes of When the Saints Go Marching In for a laugh.
Well spotted
Never made the connection in the hundreds of times I heard the song, but now that you've pointed it out, yeah, sounds a lot alike.
That also just straight up used the first verse of a G.K. Chesterton hymn in a sing about Alester Crowley.
and remember this is the same show as the "Hallowed Be Thy Name" you reacted
On his holding the mic with one hand. He was close to the Olympic team for fencing so I imagine that sort of control is quite good. Alongside the singing and the place flying and all that!
And that scream is getting even better through the years if that is even possible!
Steve is the reason I took up bass at 14. Bruce is the reason I grew my hair. Maiden is the reason I have music in my heart since I was a kid. 47yrs young now and continuing to listen and love Maiden . Cheers from Toronto!
The Talisman live definitely shows how Bruce's voice has developed over the years. UP THE IRONS!
Aside from his freaking amazing voice, he is the epitome of a natural born entertainer, front man and story teller 🥰
I subscribe.
Maiden are still the best live band I've ever seen. They give 100% every single time and blow bands half their age away.
No one ever gives any compliments to Steve on base, one of if not the hardest and best bassist ever!!!!
From a Maiden fan, so I'm a little biased, BUT, you looked like you enjoyed yourself ALOT.. you crack me the hell up.
🤘😎🤘
🇬🇧UP THE IRONS🇬🇧
I've seen Iron Maiden a ton of times and Bruce's mic stand control is insane. He'll spin, twirl, and do tricks with it like it's nothing. Half the time he's just doing it in the background during an instrumental part to entertain himself. lol
“You’re not supposed to do that, Bruce!” lmao best opener ever!
You should listen to the studio recording to listen to THAT scream. It's iconic.
The Rime of the ancient Mariner live from Flight 666 has to come next!
Yes that would be my request too, one of my most loved Maiden songs 🤘
Yes! 🤘
Yeahhh please
Absolutely!!!!
i would rather suggest the live after death version
Great reaction! Now you need to react to “Wasted Years” to make up for those you spent not listening to Maiden!
And to actually see Adrian play a solo.
You really shouldn’t miss The Talisman (En Vivo - Live from Chile) if you want to see one of Bruce’s best vocal performances from the later period of the band.
the one reason Bruce can do that with the mic stand is great muscle control he got from being a Fencer Olympic Grade
Won a silver medal for sweden I believe and was a 7 time world champ
Greetings from Germany again..damned, my friend, that was perhaps the best reaction video i've ever saw. Because you notice & appreciate everything, especialy those little things (the stunning of the crowd, Bruce holding the Mikrophon stand with one hand..etc.) things that even i didn't notice. Just like you i also thought it was Vincent Price. It says that he wanted way to much money. Bad luck for him and very good for us, the MaidenFamily. Because they hired a man called Barry Clayton, a Radio & TV pionier and storyteller. He gave us this iconic and everlasting 25 seconds quote from the book of revelation. He past away in 2012 R.I.P....Wow, awesome. And it seems you will dive deeper into Maiden. And thats amazing. And i'm so glad. I just wanna let you know how much that mean to me. I'm a MaidenManiac since 1986. To see you starting to discover Maiden reminds to my first expirience, long ago. You take me literaly back in time. To a time, maybe the best of my life. Thats totaly crazy. Thats why i love those react videos. That whats all about, right. But alot reacters dont check that. With disinterest & no respect to Bands, their music and their fans. They're obviously just doing this for likes, for getting patrions and making money. This is sad and sucks. And thats why it's so difficult to find true and honest guys like you. So i just say "Thank You" and keep on rockin'&rollin' and Stay Safe UP THE IRONS ...from Köln/Cologne..Stefan 🤘🎸💚🐾
That is one of the best maiden songs ever
That might be the greatest metal scream of all time.
Favorite band of all time. True legends. This is fun watching you enjoy these songs for the first time.
Hahaha came back to this to see your reaction. You looked impressed. One of my fave Maiden songs!
I see "vocal coach reacts to Iron Maiden," I click.
I know that you're putting a lot of focus on Bruce because he's the vocalist, but they're all living legends in my eyes. Seeing them live is the biggest highlight of my life so far.
Subscriber here Ken. You sucked me in with your video reaction to Hallowed Be Thy Name and keep me coming back with great content like this
After Maiden, Judas Priest (Rob Halford) has some amazing lungs.
And thanks for the acknowledgement to Dave Murray for the guitar solo
Roses are red
Violets are blue
When I listen to Maiden
My neighbors do too
And also Dio if he hasn't yet
Best singer and frontman ever....... end of story.
Freddie Mercury enters the chat...
also, don't get me wrong, I love IM and this song in particular :)
You got that right
Live after death dvd is amazing. Thanks Ken. You are the one to know my friend. Rock on man
Love Dave in this video!
I'm 50, so as a teen in the 80s, I was in a garage band. The amazing thing was the fact that he could still sing after that scream. I tried and quickly discovered that I could not and can not to this day, SCREAM! One scream and I was done for the night. Go back and listen to the lines following the scream. His vibrato and fullness are absolutely amazing.
By the way, another incredible scream is Roger Daltrey of The Who in "Won't Get Fooled Again." He screams twice, but the second one is one of the greatest in all of rock music.
This and Daltry’s are my top two rock screams ever.
Agree ^^^ with both of you
Amazing reaction, The clansman, when the wild wind blows or dance of the death will be cool songs to react to.
Ken, I found your analysis of this performance very interesting. Thank you!.
Best fry scream of Iron Maiden ❤❤❤❤
IT'S TOP 1!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA....
I had the intro memorized at age 10 ... this album and Piece Of Mind were my intro to Maiden.
me too
Me too
1970 birth year representing
#metoo
Same here bro I can do the intro to still life picture perfect one tickets for Maiden show by doing it on the radio those were both phenomenal album still to this day my favorite I burned up a vinyl copy of Peace of mind by playing it so much I think a couple cassettes too if I remember correctly LOL rock on blood brother up the irons
Definitely one of the most iconic metal screams of all time! Check out the studio version, it’s actually much cleaner and higher than the live “fried” version. Both very impressive in their own right.
I'm so glad you did this version! 🙂
This is pretty much the only pro-shot performance where Bruce hit the "WATCHING MEEEEE" part like the studio version. It's "MAYEEAYEEE" in all the rest. Hammersmith 1982 is so good.
Please check out 22 Acacia Avenue and Children of the Damned from the same show. They're absolutely 2 of Bruce's best performances, imo.
Bruce is incredible! 😂❤️❤️❤️
Aces High is my next Maiden vote. Not quite the vocal range, but the harmonies are incredible.
Shoutout to Pete Townsend of The Who for a great "metal" scream on Won't Get Fooled Again
Roger daltrey actually did this scream
@@mateusmatos7295 Thanks for letting him know and giving Roger Daltrey the credit. I was gonna have to if you hadn't.
@@mateusmatos7295 thank you for the correction
Once things open up, I highly suggest you catch them in concert when they come back out.
I caught them 2 years ago and their stage show is better now than ever.
Same , 2019 . Los Angeles
The inflatables were amazing
I'm new-ish to Iron Maiden fandom, so as I watch the videos of early Maiden and later Maiden I rather enjoy Bruce's transition from lycra leggings to cargo pants. But he Brings. It. Every damn time. And he can still wail. Rock on, Legend.
I was 13 when I saw them on this tour, medium small venues. And yes, it was stunned amazement seeing them for the first time live! Saw them over a dozen times through the years. Super large venues after a few years of touring for them. The smaller venues were more fun and personal to me.
I scream...you scream....we all scream for FRY SCREAM!!!!!....I think I just cracked myself up!....Great channel Ken!
Yes, that is one of the best screams of all time! It is a scream that was not supposed to be there from the beginning. When recording the album of the same name, the producer Martin Birch (R.I.P.) forced Bruce to sing the first part over and over and over. It took hours and I believe he started to break chairs in the end because he got so frustrated. The final time he nailed it, and was asked to sing that scream. Which he did very willingly and the result is now the iconic scream! More in this video: ua-cam.com/video/udHl_PW-T1A/v-deo.html
a great producer can really turn a band from good to fucking amazing.
I appreciate your different perspectives when analyzing these vids. Case in point, the observation of holding the mic stand with one hand and not hitting your teeth. Never would've occurred to me
Greatest singer of all the time Bruce , period
This recording is the same as the one they put out the video for "Hallowed Be Thy Name" from. Aside from the look of everyone on stage, the way Steve Harris's bass sound is "snapping" in the mix is just a dead giveaway.
There’s a little gem from the extended Maiden catalogue, one of their B-sides titled Reach Out. Bruce switches to backing vocals while guitarist Adrian Smith sings lead. His voice is really good. He’s done some solo stuff too where he does more vocal work.
Reach Out was on the B-side of Wasted Years, which I highly recommend listening to, even more so the Flight 666 live version as you get to Adrian on backing vocals on that.
I was lucky enough to see that tour. Back when metal was good...
One thing about Iron Maiden with is a solid truth, is they are amazing story tellers. So yeah, a great effort goes into the presentation.
I saw that tour live in Richfield Ohio. I had an epic childhood. Up the irons!!
I saw them in 86 what a treat
Brilliant solo by Dave Murray!
they have the same power also in 2021. saw them two years ago and it was also stunning and fantastic.
Greatest Metal Scream ever right there.
Great video, Mr. Ken. As far as I know, the song is based upon a nightmare Steve Harris (bassist, founding member) had after watching Damien: Omen II. Also, Steve and Bruce used to fight over stage space (as each felt that centre stage was theirs.) So, to annoy Steve, Bruce would stick-out his long mic stand (which has a very wide set of legs, at the base) to trip-up Steve. If you want to hear something totally funny, Bruce secretly recorded an argument between Steve and Nicko McBrain (their drummer) which latter made it onto the B-side of something. It's called A Mission From 'Arry.
It was on the B-side for 2 Minutes To Midnight, I’ve developed a habit of saying “f*** my old boots” thanks to that 😂
Bruce recorded it, and he deliberately tried to wind Nicko up even more too... “What if the light truss was gonna fall on you?”
“Cunt was standing beside me, sitting down!” I remember picking up the 12” single with that on the B-Side and being initially disappointed that it wasn’t a song. But I came to appreciate it once I listened a few times. It was just there with absolutely no context given.
'Maiden have two guitarists and both solo ,quite often "back to back" as in this case
Great Band looking forward to seeing them again in '22 D at Donnington, always fantastic live!
G'day Ken. You have heard "Hallowed Be Thy Name" by Iron Maiden. Bruce's lung power!!! Trying to match his sustain in that song was good practice for a kid learning to sing! This was another one! As someone already said, this was one of the first if not THE first time this song was heard - the crowd being astonished is right! Bruce was probably looking to see how they were taking it!
I've seen maiden 6 time ....THIS IS MAIDEN...old school metal head 🤘🤘🤘 thair no joke back in the DAY
Bought this album when it came out in the 80's, such a great album, wore the record out and had to buy another eventually. Neighbours loved it, as Maiden always has to be played as loud as possible. This album and the next one Piece of Mind, were two of the best metal albums to come out of the 80's
1980’s scream masters Bruce, Rob Halford and Geoff Tate!
Absolutely!
Nailed it!😈
Yes...and Dio
Don’t forget Steven Tyler.
Cliff Harris.....unreal! 🤘🏻
I would love to see you do some of their early stuff with their original singer.
Dave & Adrian set up the coolest solos, always a cool Segway in between their trade offs.
I know you've already reacted to Hallowed Be Thy Name, "but", you should really react to it from this concert....
His vocals are insane!
You have to react to Iron Maiden performing 'Infinite Dreams' live at the N.E.C Birmingham 1988. No react channel has reacted to it yet and Bruces performance really deserves it!
I agree, Infinite Dreams is really worth a reaction, it's such a great song.
Steve Harris my history teacher.
Ken you had me laughing so hard! 🤣. Your Iron Maiden videos are the best! Plus I grew up listening to them!
I've seen Iron Maiden countless times going all the way back to the 80's. They have ALWAYS been amazing and the shows are ALWAYS fantastic. Bruce is the f-ing man!
This Bass Player Amazing
😍😍😍😍
After Purple and Zeppelin was Maiden with Fear of the Dark, and Number of the Beast who sucked me in to Metal 🤘🤘🤘
Please react to Wasted Years, and Powerslave!! Up the Irons!
The Talisman is a great one!! One of Maiden's best live performances imo. And Bruce nails it.
There are two guitar solos from two listed lead guitarists. However, this song was built outside from the Steve Harris bassline. It's mostly in D Major and is a good example of major scale metal. It goes into Mixolydian for the instrumental section for a bluesy feel.
Yeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh! 🤘
I love that concert!!
Best scream ever...
Up the Irons, loved your reaction to Hallowed be thy name, skol!
The Merry Month of Maiden. A fantastic idea! Up the Irons! \m/ \m/
Run to the Hills was the first metal song I learned on the drums. Love Clive and Nikko. I can play the intro to Where Eagles Dare, it's not easy.
That fry scream comment got you an instant like! 🤘🏼
The voice at the intro was Barry Clayton
Another epic scream, Rob Halford, Judas Priest, Victim of Changes off the live album Unleashed in the East Live in Japan. Or the US Festival concert version...
Yes 👍
Have you ever seen so many leather jackets in a crowd before?🤘🤘🤘 Besides at a biker ralley.
I am so looking forward to your videos in the month of maiden!
IRON MAY-DEN!!!🤘🏽🤘🏽
Dickinson, DIO, Halford, Eric Adams Etc... All those great singers were also great performers, almost Acting like in an opera live. There was the Voice, great voice but also all the presence on the stage, the energy and power that made Heavy Metal so great in those years, especially on stage. And the bests were those who were even better live than on the albums. yeah, Bruce is one of the greatest, a Legend !
And now Dan Vasc just dropped a cover. And it's incredible
that scream at 2:26 still is the greatest
