LP collection: Live After Death 1985 double black vinyl in gatefold cover. 17 tracks. UK pressing.














Live After Death was really a landmark in Maiden and rock career. Before that the world didn't knew what was a real rock show. Powerslave changed everything, the big gigantic mummy on the back of the stage, the Eddie walking onstage, the phenomenal backdrops...everything was huge on that tour, so a live album was needed.
Live After Death was released in 14/10/1985 and reached number 2 in the UK top chart.
This edition is the UK pressing and comes with the great special 8 page booklet where we can see much more photos and read what equipment Maiden used on that tour and all the logistic needed, fantastic!
The artwork on the labels are the same on the 2 vinyls on both sides. The inner sleeves are from tick paper with a small cut on top opening.
