BRUCE DICKINSON

ANTHOLOGY

2006





Review: The Air Raid Siren releasing his DVD anthology. There is not shortage of quantity here. 3 Dvd's featuring 3 concerts spanning his solo career. Each concert featuring different musicians. The 1st one is from 1990 on his Tattooed Millionaire tour which features Bruce's version of ACDC classic Sin City and Deep Purple's Black Night which is cool to hear his take on them and he also does Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter taking from the Maiden album No Prayer. 2nd concert is from his Skunkworks tour in 1996, here he does Maiden's Prisoner and his classic Tears of the Dragon. Final concert is from 1998 using the video display at the concert for the fans so not the greatest video production but a raw feel of actually being there. Shortly after this the dvd states he went back to join Maiden. Adrian Smith is in Bruce's band for this tour so thats a plus. DVD 3 contains all of his videos he made from his solo career with Bruce explaing the reasoning going into each video. 14 videos in all and a lot I was viewing for the first time on here. Bruce also gives his thoughts on his last solo cd Tyranny of Souls and something really from the archives with him in his first band Samson in some cheesy metal videos but still fun to see. This is definitly worth the money for what you get. Air Raid Siren fans will eat it up.
