Powerslave — 1984

Epic, intricate and confident, home to the towering 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner'. The peak of their golden run. Grand metal done right. Released in 1984 — a solid middle chapter.

On vinyl: '80s originals are plentiful and usually affordable; reissues tend to be cleaner but pricier.
