Iron Maiden - Killers
‘In 1981The Rolling Stones released Tattoo You, President Sadat of Egypt was assassinated and Polands’ Solidarity movement was founded. U2 Appear for the first time on UK BBC show ‘The Old Grey Whistle Test’ and later that year played Slane Castle with Thin Lizzy and Hazel O’Connor.
Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, Pierre Trudeau, Robert Muldoon and PW Botha are all in power.
The Falklands War is soon to kick off and The UK hands power over in Belize. Francois Mitterands Socialist win in France, and Iraq and Iran are having their own private war. Qatar sets up a collective to protect the arid peninsular delicate ecology and the US Space Shuttle is launched.
Turkey settles down again after a bloodless takeover but has to wait another 2 years before its next civilian government.
If you haven’t listened to Killers recently, do yourself a favour and play it now. Loud. Very loud. That’s the sound of quality.’
