Piece Of Mind Jan 1983 : Iron Maiden : Piece Of Mind : Amazon.com
Second album with Bruce Dickinson on Vocals. Great followup to Number Of The Beast. This is the first album (cassette actually) I ever bought and I still love it. Features "Where Eagles Dare", "Die With Your Boots On" and "The Trooper".
Number of the Beast May 1982 : Iron Maiden : Number of the Beast : Amazon.com
First album with Bruce Dickinson on lead vocals. He replaced Paul Dianno. Features "Run to the Hills".
Killers May 1981 : Iron Maiden : Killers : Amazon.com
Last album with Paul Dianno on vocals.
Iron Maiden Apr 1980 : Iron Maiden : Iron Maiden : Amazon.com
Maiden's first album. Features the classic "Running Free", "Charlotte the Harlot" and later, on the US release "Sanctuary". Paul Dianno sings on this and Maiden's second album, Killers, to be replaced by Bruce Dickinson on Number of the Beast. Both vocalists do a great job and Dianno being replaced shouldn't be taken as a sign that he lacked any talent, nor should Dickinson be see as second fiddle.
