Didn’t realize there was a new compilation coming out. * Looks up on wiki. Hmm… not a bad compilation, but not sure who it is designed for. Maybe a fan who lost interest around the Bruce/Blaze change and never came back? Otherwise I don’t understand why people who own studio albums buy compilations, unless they have the money and time to be ‘completists.’
As far as compilations go, I could count on one hand the number I’ve owned over the years, but bought
this compilation to check out more Maiden, since I only knew a couple hits. After a few listens, I knew this wasn’t going to cut it, so I started getting the studio albums. 5+ years later I own all the albums, a DVD, and have seen them live twice.
I think that’s the only time I’ve become a big fan and follower of a band based off of one compilation album.
