Wake Up to Guitar Greatness Today's Pick: Dave Murray & Adrian Smith - "The Trooper" (Live, '85) The song recounts the doomed 1854 Charge of the Light Brigade from a dying trooper's view, over Murray and Smith's twin lead.

Bass carries this tune

That tour was one of the best shows I ever saw.

And they are still rippin it too. Just saw them few days back.

Iron Maiden 🤘

Fuck yeah

I was third row for this show

😎Seattle. 9/28/22. 37 years later. Vids by bodasafa.😎

These guys are touring in the East coast right now.

They sure are!! Just caught them a few days back. Megadeth was the opener.

Right on! I heard Megadeath played Mechanix. I bet that was awesome too.

Absolutely!! Dave told the crowd "Got a a surprise for you" before tearing right into it.

Fuk yeah! You got any vids of that one by chance?

Unfortunately no. I did get clips of other songs though.

GREAT song. The official "The Trooper" video features footage from the 1936 movie "The Charge of the Light Brigade". Horses during the famous charge scene were upended by hidden tripwires, resulting in the death of 25 horses. If you see, "No animals were harmed..." in movie credits, it was the resulting public outrage from this film that led to actions by Congress and the ASPCA to limit cruelty to animals in film.

And they haven’t lost a step.

If there was one VHS that i injected into my veins on a daily basis for about a year, it was Live After Death. Pretty much sold Metal up the river for life.

Just saw Iron Maiden, the best live show I’ve ever soon

Maiden is greatness. No t only did they rock, but they were very intelligent as is shown in their songs. Amazing group.

the only band I regret not seeing.

Back when Iron Maiden used to make good music. Fear Of The Dark was their last good album. The rest have been spotty at best.

La mejor banda de Rock de la historia.

🤘🤘

41 years later and still breathtaking. Nicko is seriously missed.

Into the valley of death rode the 600

i remember when Live After Death aired New Year's Eve on MTV. i watched it at a friend's house, i was about 14 at the time. needless to say i was blown away. i was fan before, but that show took it to a whole other level.

Just more proof that Janick Gers is useless.

And the invincible Steve Harris and his badass galloping bass!!! 🔥🤘
