The Number of the Beast (Vinyl)

Released in 1982, 'The Number of the Beast' is the third Iron Maiden, first released in March 1982. It saw the debut of vocalist Bruce Dickinson who left the band in 1993 but rejoined 6 years later, and tours with them to this day.

'The Number of the Beast' met with considerable critical and commercial success and was a landmark release for the band, becoming their first album to reach No. 1 in the UK Albums Chart, and be certified platinum in the US. The album also produced the singles "Run to the Hills" and "The Number of the Beast", the former of which was the band's first top-ten UK single. The album was also controversial – particularly in the US – due to the religious nature of its lyrics and its artwork.
