  Spaz Out New York: Everything I Need To Know, I've Learned from Iron Maiden
The song "Quest For Fire" from Piece Of Mind is a badass track that chronicles the true story of man's life and death struggle with dinosaurs, wooly mammoths and fire in caveman times, and is so full of prehistorical flavor that it rivals The Flinstones.
The song is sung from the perspective of an all-powerful Pharaoh lamenting his impending death, and promising to return to life as a mummy and fulfill his curse.
Maiden's depiction of this epic WW2 aerial dogfight is so vivid, it's not hard for the listener to imagine what it was like putting those Vietnamese bastards in their place- especially if you take a huge bong hit right before the guitar solo!

Iron Maiden were one of the first groups to be classified as "British metal," and, along with Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and a host of other bands, set the rock scene for the '80s.

 Iron Maiden : Piece of Mind - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
By 1983's Piece of Mind, Iron Maiden were fast becoming one of the biggest metal bands on the planet, yet with each successive album, the group lost an original member.
This time it would prove to be exit time for drummer Clive Burr, who was replaced by ex-Pat Travers skinsman Nicko McBrain, resulting in what many consider to be the quintessential Iron Maiden lineup (remaining intact until 1990).
While all of the expected Maiden musical trademarks are again present (Steve Harris' galloping basslines, Bruce Dickinson's Herculean vocals, great guitar harmonies from Dave Murray/Adrian Smith), the sound is streamlined slightly, resulting in the band's most melodic and accessible album thus far.

 The Iron Maiden Commentary
The sheer strength of the material on Piece Of Mind reflected the fact that, in master technicians like Bruce, Adrian and Nicko, allied to the gutsy rock 'n' roll energy and emotion of Steve and Davey, Maiden now had all the tools they needed to stretch out and begin to create their first real masterpieces.
Nicko was still kind of nervous, being the new kid on the block and all, but he stayed in working almost all day on a drum intro for the song.
At the end of the day, he had a little 6–7-second thing that entailed hitting basically every piece of his kit, going from small tom to big tom, like a kind of ending to a song – and then jumped into the chorus.

Nach dem Iron Maiden mit ihrem Debüt-Album und dem darauf folgenden „Killers“ noch als eine Art Geheimtipp gehandelt wurden (Anmerkung: Iron Maiden wurden als Punk-Band gehandelt, obwohl sie definitiv keinen Punk gespielt haben), ließen sie mit „The number of the beast“ mächtig aufhören.
Wer sich richtig und eingehend mit Iron Maiden befasst, sollte mit den frühen Alben auf alle Fälle anfangen, sonst kennt man die Band nicht richtig und es ist dem Fan viel entgangen.
