Really difficult choice, but considering I HAVE to choose one track, I'll say Infinite Dreams (though in reality, I love the entire album).

This is certainly one of my favorite traditional metal albums ever. I only prefer one Rainbow album, two Priest albums, and Powerslave to this when speaking of my favorite traditional metal bands.

Hmmm, there are no songs I like on this album.  I normally don't listen any further than Powerslave.

Hmmm sort of.  To me Maiden just really lost their touch after Powerslave.  Each to their own though, everyone has different tastes :)

To me, they started losing their touch on No Prayer for the Dying with Fear of the Dark and The X Factor being okay and Virtual XI being quite bad. When Bruce and Adrian came back, though, a new golden age for the band started. this may be fanboyism, but I can't think of any weak moment on any of their first seven albums.

I don't want to hate on Blaze Bayley, because he did a fine job back in the Wolfsbane days (Down Fall the Good Guys is a pretty damn good album), and he did okay on The X Factor. However, his performance on Virtual XI is pretty horrible at times. I just think that his singing style did not fit Iron Maiden's music. It's not his fault that the two Bayley-fronted albums were not super good, because the quality in the songwriting and production on those albums was not up to scratch either.

Virtual XI is my least favorite Maiden album as well, but I thought it was okay. I like "The Clansman" a lot, even though I prefer the Rio version. I think you're right about the songwriting on the Blaze albums though. I can't really find a weak song on the first seven either, not even on Killers.

But I love the song title (Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son), the middle of it with the lower flow is sensational and The Evil That Men Do too, I smile. ;)

Very true Gabi :)

No one else showing any love for The Prophecy, so I will. Yes, it's cheesy as fuck, but I was reading a lot of fantasy fiction when this came out.
