Iron
Maiden – Rock in Rio
Best Classic Metal Album
The following was originally published in our Review section.
Review by Keavin

The culmination of the “Brave New World
Tour” occurred at the Rock In Rio festival where the band performed before
250,000 screaming fans. Like their triumphant Long Beach Arena shows from
fifteen years before the band wanted to capture this performance for posterity.
Now fans the world over get to share in the “Rock in Rio” experience with
the release of the new live recordings of the performance aptly titled
“Rock in Rio” with an home video DVD release of the concert to be released
later this year.
“Rock in Rio” isn’t just another “live
album”; Iron Maiden fans can get an entire perspective of the band’s history
on the road by listening to each subsequent live album. Starting with “Maiden
in Japan” (If you can find a copy) to “Live After Death”, “A Real Live
One” and now “Rock in Rio” each album gives us a snapshot of the band at
that period of time and luckily for fans the track listings are varied.
Fans can own all of the Iron Maiden live releases without them being overly
redundant. While “Live in Rio” features some early Maiden classics,
the album is really a showcase for where the band is at in this moment
in time. If anything “Rock in Rio” is the third essential live album to
be included in the Iron Maiden Live discography, the Iron Maiden Live Trilogy
if you will.
