This great Iron Maiden tune, as was the case for all this U.K. metal band's 45s, was not released on 45 rpm in the U.S. until this 2014 "reissue." The 1982 U.K. single was on EMI 5287; it reached #18 on the U.K. singles chart. The group were wildly popular in the U.K. but never gained a significant radio presence in the U.S. In fact, this seminal Metal recording was reissued in the U.K. in 2005 and went all the way to #3 on the singles chart! (U.K. rock fans have long been more devoted to the 7-inch format than U.S. fans, unfortunately.) The B side was "recorded live in Italy." As the sticker on these brand new, sealed copies indicates, this is a part of a "Limited Edition 7" Series" (2,500 copies) that features the "Original 7" Art and Audio Masters... 1st Time Officially Available in the U.S." Like the U.K. release, this U.S. 7-inch has a small spindle hole.
