Scream For Me Brazil
''Scream for Me Brazil'' is a live album by Bruce Dickinson, recorded in São Paulo, Brazil and released in 1999. The actual concert set list consisted of eighteen songs, but six of them were cut out from this release. The songs in question were three Iron Maiden songs; "Powerslave", "2 Minutes to Midnight" and "Flight of Icarus" as well as three of Dickinson's own songs; "Jerusalem", "Taking the Queen" and "Tattooed Millionaire". "Jerusalem" from this concert was later released on ''The Best of Bruce Dickinson'' compilation album in 2001. Background The album was released when guitarist Adrian Smith embodied his return to Iron Maiden and was considered a valuable conclusion of Dickinson's solo career. The first part of the concert consists entirely of the songs from the album '' The Chemical Wedding'', and then the inevitable "Tears of the Dragon" begins to remake Dickinson's classics. The album does not include songs from ''Skunkworks'' and ''Tattooed Millionaire''. The album ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

In early 1989, during his first tenure in Iron Maiden, Zomba asked Dickinson to contribute a track for the film '' A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child'', providing a budget, a studio, and a producer, Chris Tsangarides. Dickinson took up the opportunity and called an old friend of his, former Gillan guitarist Janick Gers.

Accident Of Birth
''Accident of Birth'' is the fourth studio album by Bruce Dickinson, released on 3 June 1997 through Castle Communications sub-label Raw Power in the UK and through CMC International in the US.

Accident Of Birth (song)
"Accident of Birth" is the first single from Bruce Dickinson's fourth solo album, ''Accident of Birth'', released in 1997 and peaking at number 54 in the UK Singles Chart. Dickinson described the song as "about a family from Hell. Except they're in Hell and one of them has accidentally been born, and they want him back and he doesn't want to go. For all the same reasons that you wouldn't want to go back to your family if they're a pain in the ass, he doesn't want to go back to his family. OK, so they're in Hell, that makes a little difference too." Music video The song's music video was directed by Bruce Dickinson and was shot on the same day as the video to "Road to Hell" from the same album.

Balls To Picasso
''Balls to Picasso'' is the second solo album by Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson, released in 1994. It is the first album in Dickinson's solo career that was released after he had officially left Iron Maiden (although he rejoined again in 1999). This record marked the beginning of Dickinson's collaborations with guitarist Roy Z, who would work on many of Dickinson's later albums including ''Accident of Birth'', '' The Chemical Wedding'' and ''Tyranny of Souls''. Stylistically it departs from ''Tattooed Millionaire'' but is still more traditional-sounding than the follow-up album ''Skunkworks'' released in 1996. Later, Dickinson said that he and Roy Z were talked into making the album less heavy than it should have been. Overview Dickinson started working on his second solo album while still in Iron Maiden. For the very first recording sessions he recruited the British band Skin. Not satisfied with the style of the effort, Dickinson aborted the recording. His next attempt at ...

Tattooed Millionaire
''Tattooed Millionaire'' is the first solo album by Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson, released in 1990. The album project began when Dickinson was asked to record a song for '' A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child'', and so wrote " Bring Your Daughter... to the Slaughter". Collaborating with future Iron Maiden guitarist Janick Gers, Dickinson began creating a solo album which was fundamentally different from his works with Iron Maiden, with a hard rock sound that is less progressive. "Bring your Daughter..." wasn't included on the original release, as Iron Maiden planned to record an alternate version for their 1990 album ''No Prayer for the Dying'', which went on to become the band's only number one single on the UK Singles Chart to date. The album did however yield four Top 40 singles in the UK, with the lead and title single "Tattooed Millionaire", reaching No. 18. A cover of the David Bowie penned, Mott the Hoople hit "All the Young Dudes", was also a relative s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
