What's your favourite Maiden live album?

[The Educated fool]

Pretty straightforward poll... which Maiden live bit does it for you? For the sake of more options, I included a couple of early EPs in the choices too. Up the Irons!

Close call between Live After Death and Rock In Rio for me, but seeing the current line-up blow the faces off of 250,000 people has to top it for me!

Voted Maiden England 88, but I really cant choose.

Live After Death, Rock in Rio, Live at Donington, Beast over Hammersmith and Maiden England all are SUPERB. (Make it a tie on all these :P )

Others in the list ain't that great (EnVivo - Death On The Road), or are not live albums on my count, just live compilations.

Those are all fine choices, worthy of tying... for me though, Rock in Rio gets the nod (mostly for Bruce's resurrection of The Clansman, as I've said in the thread that inspired this poll. I was shocked at how good that song was with Bruce on vox--though it's more than that that saved it, for me--the live version has a way more lively tempo than the original, imo).

Rock In Rio or Flight 666, yet I like them ALL!

If I had to pick one it would be Live After Death. They are hands down the most amazing live band I've had the privilege of seeing imho and are at the height of their powers on that one!

Live After Death is my favorite live album ever, and possibly the best live metal album ever. Rock In Rio is very good too, with an excellent Fear of the Dark and great performances of some of the best Blaze-era material

I promised myself I'd go out and buy Death On The Road once I get my Carriage Rider.

Couldn't agree more! Steve Harris' bass tone on that album alone is worthy of this statement. Throw in the performances from his 'mates and it is damn near bulletproof!

I hear you man, but don't wait out the heartless RNG... go buy it and use it to cheer yourself up while you wait for CR to drop!

Haven't checked this thread in a long time... interesting results. I'm not surprised--at all--to see Live After Death leading (I'd have been shocked to find otherwise) but to see Flight 666 leading over Rock in Rio (albeit by a measly and paltry 3 to 2 vote) is a bit surprising. One never knows.

Shocking too to see no votes for Live!! + 1... it's a live EP WITH Women In Uniform! How you gon' compete with that? lol

Live After Death is to me the best album ever released Live or Studio ;-) It's also the first Maiden album I owned ;-)
