This is one of my favourite KZfaq videos. The performance at the beginning captures how awesome it feels to play this fantastic song.

THANKS MAN! Ive loved maiden since I first saw them opening for judas priest way back in the day. I have recently started playing guitar again. Every. Single. Day. It has been 20 years since I played regulary. I am 48 years old, body is broken a bit and still have shrapnel drifting about my chest and your posting (and me playing) the maiden songs that you have makes all the crap just go away. Your efforts on this have been a positive impact to me. UP WITH THE IRONS

I really love your playing and your amp-sound.I thank you and kindly greet you from Italy.

GREAT PLAYING MAN

Did not watch the video yet, but anyone willing to teach on the internet for free deserves a big thank you =)

Way to rock out this awesome tune! Thanks for putting up your Iron Maiden lessons. Months or work ahead of me just on this and Revelations. Yeaaaaahhh!!

I've finally got this down after months of trying. Now it's metronome time. Oh, how I love my metronome.

Best Iron maiden faces ever!!

you are my new favorite person

Thanks, I used a Marshall Lead 12 (the red amp you see in the video that's behind me), into two 10" Celestion Greenbacks. The gain on the amp was around 9, all the tone about noon, treble one o clock position. The guitar has a Seymour Duncan Antiquity p/up in it, and the combination of that with the Les Paul and everything else, my technique, etc... give that tone. I think the essential ingredients are the Greenbacks, the guitar, and those pickups, any marshall will do.

Yes, I do, and I have several other guitar lesson videos that I've made and posted on this channel since posting this one.

thanks man.. I needed to learn it real quick. thanks for the help.

A little struggle but good job! The chorus riff is not a slide! Cheers.
