Iron Maiden

In November 1986, during the height of their 'Somewhere on Tour,' Iron Maiden delivered an electrifying performance at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy. This live recording showcases the band just after releasing their iconic album 'Somewhere in Time,' which came out earlier that year. Known for its distinctive blend of heavy metal with futuristic themes, the album featured hits like 'Wasted Years' and 'Heaven Can Wait.' Interestingly, this Paris concert was one of four shows in France that year and fans still rave about it as a standout moment from the tour, even though it wasn't officially recorded. It's fascinating how this era really marked the band's soaring popularity. They were experimenting with a more polished sound and intricate guitar work, further solidifying their legacy in rock history.
