Una prestazione assurda del vocalist Bruce Dickinson e una celebrazione in grande stile dei 50 anni della band simbolo dell'heavy metal mondiale. Parliamo delle emozioni provate assistendo allo show, delle scelte artistiche e di molto altro coinvolgendo la community che commentava in diretta con noi l'episodio.Ospite della puntata Frank Travagli (amministratore di Iron Maiden Italia).Il podcast è disponibile su Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, YouTube, Deezer, Spreaker e molti altri.
It's something of a music-themed show today as Pete reveals he once interviewed Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers and he had something resembling a torture rack in his dressing room. Aside from that we pour doubt on the credibility of Bruce Dickinson's polymath credentials and then get stuck into a bit of Black Sabbath.Also, have we come full circle in the "what to feed ducks" debate that's been raging around the UK for the last decade or so?

This week on Dem Vinyl Boyz, we summon the galloping riffs and soaring vocals of one of the most iconic heavy metal albums of all time — Iron Maiden’s 1982 masterpiece, The Number of the Beast. This record marked a turning point for the band: it was the debut of powerhouse frontman Bruce Dickinson, and the album that would catapult Iron Maiden from underground heroes to global metal gods. Blending fierce instrumentals, dramatic storytelling, and apocalyptic themes, The Number of the Beast delivered timeless classics like “Run to the Hills,” “Hallowed Be Thy Name,” and the fiery title track “The Number of the Beast.” We dig into the controversy the album stirred with its dark imagery and biblical references, the influence it had on generations of metal bands, and how it still stands as a defining moment in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Whether you’re a longtime headbanger or just stepping into the Maidenverse, this vinyl is a must-have — and this episode is your gateway to understanding why The Number of the Beast remains immortal in the halls of heavy metal history. Up the irons — and spin it loud.

Music journalist Martin Popoff provides an intimate and scholarly look into the life and times of Iron Maiden. From their humble beginnings in the dingy clubs of East London to headlining arenas and festivals worldwide, the band's story is one of resilience, creativity, and unrelenting dedication to remaining prolific and vital in the present day. Dive deep into their music, stage performances, and the iconic figure of Eddie, their undead mascot. Readers will discover the stories behind all their albums-such as Killers, The Number of the Beast, and Powerslave, through to their most recent, Senjutsu (and all solo releases)-as well as the inspiring creative and commercial resurgence that the band experienced beginning with the return of Bruce Dickinson to the fold in 1999. Anchored by the author's 1995-2024 interviews with all band members, this book is framed most pertinently as an analysis of each Iron Maiden album, one per chapter, every song discussed musically and at the literary end, along with the album covers and the finer points of the recording process. All told, Hallowed by Their Name is the most voluminous and career-spanning reference-level book on Iron Maiden ever written. And with an explosion of photographic images as well, it's sure to have fans scurrying back to the sacred texts-Iron Maiden's beloved records-for additional and enriching reconsiderations of the many essential metal songs this band has given us over the years.This is a must-read for any music enthusiast, a tribute to the indomitable spirit of Iron Maiden, and a celebration of the band's enduring six-decade legacy in the realm of heavy metal.

Let Us Know What You Think of the Show!Date: May 28, 2025Name of podcast: Backstage Pass RadioS8: E6: Graham Bonnet & Beth-Ami Heavenstone - The Legend and the Forever FriendSHOW SUMMARY:Rock legend Graham Bonnet and bassist/manager Beth-Ami Heavenstone invite listeners into their world for an intimate conversation about music, recovery, and what's next for the Graham Bonnet Band. Fresh from battling COVID-19, the pair reflects on the unique challenges vocalists face—a sentiment Bonnet captures perfectly when he states, "The voice is the hardest instrument to play... the guitar is easy compared to this." The conversation weaves through exciting announcements about their upcoming live DVD recorded at the historic Whiskey a Go Go, a venue deeply meaningful to both artists as their first performance space together. Fans will be thrilled to learn about the band's fourth studio album in progress, featuring a special collaboration with Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson. Bonnet shares his creative process, including a touching tribute song to the underappreciated guitar virtuoso Rory Gallagher, revealing the thoughtful songwriter behind the powerful voice. Some of the most compelling moments emerge when Bonnet opens up about his remarkable past—from his early connection to the Bee Gees (his cousin Trevor Gordon was originally part of the group in Australia) to his heartfelt remembrance of drummer Cozy Powell, whose 1998 passing still visibly moves him. The emotional gravity in Bonnet's voice as he recalls seeing two rainbows touch the hillside after learning of Powell's death demonstrates that behind the legendary rock persona is a deeply feeling human being who treasures these connections. Between European tour preparations, managing multiple projects, and their life together raising chickens in LA, Bonnet and Heavenstone offer a refreshingly authentic glimpse into their world. Their playful banter and surprising personal revelations—Graham's unexpected love for figure skating and Antiques Roadshow, Beth-Ami's bird watching hobby—create a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes listeners feel like they're sitting in their living room. Whether you've followed Graham's career for decades or are discovering his extraordinary voice for the first time, this conversation captures the spirit of a rock legend who remains humble, creative, and utterly passionate about music.Sponsor Link:WWW.ECOTRIC.COMWWW.SIGNAD.COMWWW.RUNWAYAUDIO.COMBackstage Pass Radio Social Media Handles:Facebook - @backstagepassradiopodcast @randyhulseymusicInstagram - @Backstagepassradio @randyhulseymusicTwitter - @backstagepassPC @rhulseymusicWebsite - backstagepassradio.com and randyhulsey.comArtist(s) Web PageCall to actionWe ask our listeners to like, share, and subscribe to the show and the artist's social media pages.

Gliders Over Hollywood tells the exhilarating true story of a blue-collar kid nicknamed ‘Rap' who grew up in thrall to rock'n'roll, then found himself right in the middle of many of his heroes' lives as he became the most renowned rock promotion man in the USA. Paul Rappaport enjoyed a storied thirty-three-year career at Columbia Records, where he was instrumental in the careers of everyone from Bob Dylan to Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd to The Rolling Stones, Elvis Costello to Billy Joel, Judas Priest to Alice In Chains, and many, many more. The music business from the late 60s through the 90s was an exciting time that mirrored the music and the musicians making it. It was also a time of new and creative ideas on how to market this groundbreaking cultural phenomenon. Eccentric characters were everywhere, and often the managers, promoters, disc jockeys, and record company staff were just as big a show as the performers themselves. ‘I wrote this book to capture the magical times,' says Paul, ‘so that people wouldn't forget but also to show the many behind-the-scenes folks whose lives were so colorful they brought a warmth and laughter to the world. If you want to know what it felt like to be there, to experience the whole scene first hand, to get the inside track on how it really all went down, these stories are for you. I welcome you to follow me down the rabbit hole to a magical place that will bring you laughter and reveal the inner workings of the music biz that you may have often wondered about.' From creating the Pink Floyd airship to sword-fighting with Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden and receiving a guitar lesson from Keith Richards, Gliders Over Hollywood is packed full of extraordinary adventures with some of the biggest names in rock.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

"The Number Of The Beast" von Iron Maiden ist eines DER Alben der "New Wave of British Heavy Metal". Wir haben mit Metalfan und Journalist Christof Leim über die Platte gesprochen. Mit ihrem Album "The Number Of The Beast" haben die Heavy Metal Legenden und ihr Maskottchen "Eddie" 1982 den großen Durchbruch in der noch jungen Metalszene geschafft. Kein Wunder, denn schließlich sind mit "The Number Of The Beast" und "Run To The Hills" auch zwei der größten Hits der Band mit auf dem Album. Mit "The Number Of The Beast" begann für Iron Maiden sowas wie eine neue Zeitrechnung. Es war nicht nur die erste Platte, die der Band internationale Bekanntheit beschert hat, sondern es war auch das erste Album mit dem neuen Sänger Bruce Dickinson. Grundsätzlich ist das Album "Number Of The Beast" eine (meist) wirklich temporeiche Platte, vorwiegend wenn man die Gitarrenarbeit von Adrian Smith und Dave Murray betrachtet. Das trifft natürlich auch auf zwei der bekanntesten Songs des Albums zu, den Titelsong "The Number Of The Beast" und "Run To The Hills", bei Letzterem ist vor allem der – für den Heavy Metal typische – galoppierende Gitarrenrhythmus ikonisch. Und auch wenn Refrains wie beim Song "Run To The Hills" hier und da fast schon fröhlich klingen, sind die Themen auf "The Number Of The Beast" – der Titel lässt es erahnen – meist eher düsterer Natur. Zwischen Vertreibung, Verbrennungen und Todeszelle bewegen sich die Geschichten in Songs wie "Run To The Hills", "Children Of The Damned" oder "Hallowed Be Thy Name". Inspirieren lassen hat sich Hauptsongwriter Steve Harris oft von Träumen, aber auch von Filmen oder TV-Serien, wie zum Beispiel beim Song "The Prisoner". Bei einigen Songs auf dem Album, wie zum Beispiel bei "Run To The Hills" hatte aber auch schon der neue Sänger Bruce Dickinson mitgeschrieben, allerdings nur im Geheimen, denn vertraglich war er noch an seine alte Band "Samson" gebunden. Iron Maiden sind mit legendären Songs wie "Run To The Hills", "Number Of The Beast" und anderen von diesem Album für viele spätere Metalmusiker, wie zum Beispiel auch Metallica, ein riesengroßer Einfluss gewesen. Die Band hat mit ihren klaren Melodien, tollen Harmonien und zweistimmigem Gitarrenspiel an vielen Stellen eine Blaupause dafür geliefert, wie man großartige Heavy-Metal-Songs schreibt, ohne diese zu überfrachten, aber sie trotzdem mit ganz viel Energie aufzuladen. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "The Number Of The Beast" wird im Podcast gesprochen: (15:33) – "Invaders"(17:48) – "The Number Of The Beast"(29:39) – "Children of The Damned"(36:29) – "The Prisoner"(38:55) – "Run To The Hills"(47:01) – "Hallowed Be Thy Name"__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/iron-maiden-number-of-the-beast __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Paul Rappaport in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gliders-Over-Hollywood-Airships-Promotion/dp/191682918X Gliders Over Hollywood tells the exhilarating true story of a blue-collar kid nicknamed ‘Rap' who grew up in thrall to rock'n'roll, then found himself right in the middle of many of his heroes' lives as he became the most renowned rock promotion man in the USA. Paul Rappaport enjoyed a storied thirty-three-year career at Columbia Records, where he was instrumental in the careers of everyone from Bob Dylan to Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd to The Rolling Stones, Elvis Costello to Billy Joel, Judas Priest to Alice In Chains, and many, many more. The music business from the late 60s through the 90s was an exciting time that mirrored the music and the musicians making it. It was also a time of new and creative ideas on how to market this groundbreaking cultural phenomenon. Eccentric characters were everywhere, and often the managers, promoters, disc jockeys, and record company staff were just as big a show as the performers themselves. This dynamic, entertaining memoir captures the magic of these times and the people who made it happen, revealing the never-before-heard secrets of the promotion and marketing that turned the music industry on its head. From creating the Pink Floyd airship to sword-fighting with Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden and receiving a guitar lesson from Keith Richards, it's a book packed full of extraordinary adventures with some of the biggest names in rock.

She talks about her roots volunteering at an animal shelter, her unexpected rise through LA's music scene after a chance encounter with Maynard Keenan of Tool, and her commitment to a plant-based lifestyle even while on tour playing alongside legendary acts like Whitesnake, Puscifer, Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson, and Dee Snider. Tanya discusses touring, the evolving food landscape in Ireland, and her deeply personal projects—a touring documentary promoting plant-based diets, and an upcoming film highlighting how plant-based nutrition can support veteran health and well-being.
