50 years of Iron Maiden, and still iconic mascot Eddie the Head doesn't look a year older. This tombstone of a book is a glorious salute to the band that defined Heavy Metal for a generation and influenced the succession of splintering metal sub-genres that were to come, and keep coming.
Seriously, we've never seen a more comprehensive tribute - album sleeves, band photos, stage props, tee shirts, posters, hand-written notes, tour jackets, aircraft livery (yes, aircraft livery), guitars, set designs, tickets stubs, diary extracts, and Eddie... lots of Eddie. This is an incredible treasure trove of metalobelia that these musical titans justice.
Split over four chapters that cover the band's journey from 1975 to the present, the book also features in-depth commentary by band members past and present, and never-before-seen photography from the Iron Maiden archives.
Wasted Years? Not a bit of it - this is the best band book, bar none.
