180 Gram Black Vinyl LP, 2014 US Reissue

This is the 2014 BMG pressing of Iron Maiden's debut, catalog number BMG14005V, one of eight of the band's 1980s albums reissued that year on heavyweight 180-gram black vinyl with artwork matching the original releases. It reached US stores on October 14, 2014, the same day as Killers and The Number of the Beast. United Record Pressing pressed it, INgrooves manufactured and distributed it, and Sean Magee cut the lacquers at Abbey Road Studios. The record ships in a plain black poly-lined paper sleeve.

Iron Maiden first came out in April 1980 on EMI in the UK, with Harvest and Capitol handling North America. Wil Malone produced it, credited as Will Malone, at Kingsway Studios in London, and the final mixes were done at Morgan Studios. Paul Di'Anno sang lead, Dave Murray and Dennis Stratton played guitars, Steve Harris played bass and Clive Burr played drums. It is the only Iron Maiden studio album with Stratton in the lineup.

This pressing keeps the original UK running order of eight tracks. The North American edition of 1980 added "Sanctuary," which is not included here. Harris wrote most of the album, Di'Anno shares the credits on "Remember Tomorrow" and "Running Free," and Murray wrote "Charlotte the Harlot."

"Running Free," issued that February, reached No. 34 on the UK Singles Chart, and the album climbed to No. 4 on the UK Albums Chart. It has since been certified Platinum in the UK and in Canada. Derek Riggs painted the cover, the first time Eddie's face was shown after the "Running Free" sleeve kept it in shadow.
