Maiden England
Maiden England is a concert film from Iron Maiden's Seventh Son of a Seventh Son tour, which the band nicknamed the Seventh Tour of a Seventh Tour. It was filmed at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham on 27 and 28 November 1988 and came out on VHS in November 1989. Bassist and founder Steve Harris directed and edited it himself.
A limited VHS and CD edition followed in 1994, though the disc left out "Can I Play with Madness" and "Hallowed Be Thy Name" to fit the space. In 2013 it was reissued on DVD, CD and LP as Maiden England '88, this time with the full show, encores included. It's a good way to hear how the Seventh Son material sat alongside the band's older songs on stage.
