Not glam, but...
Legendary rock producer and musician Bob Kulick (KISS, MEATLOAF) has finished producing an all-star tribute to IRON MAIDEN in honor of their 25th anniversary.

Wow, that is actually a VERY impressive line-up of people for this thing! Usually you don't get so much talent for a full CD.
Though...Mark Slaughter??? Wow, that should REALLY suck.
-
WOW!!!! Interesting to hear some of these tracks.

As much as I love Lemmy, him doing "The Trooper" smells like funny! It's not gonna suck, but his voice is the furthest thing from Maiden that I can think of! It should be very interesting to hear that!
And yeah, I agree with Carl...Mark Slaughter = not good.
