42 years ago today in the UK, Iron Maiden released KILLERS, there studio 2nd album. This was the last recording with Paul Di'Anno and the first with guitarist Adrianne Smith. All Maiden albums are instant classics but this hold a special place for us here at KnuckleBonz for a couple of reasons. The first being, it has one of our all time Iron Maiden tracks WRATHCHILD ! The 2nd and most enduring reason, is the cover art by Derek Riggs sees Eddie take on the form that we know him today. The original cover for the debut album was created by the very same Derek Riggs before Maiden had come onto the scene, so it was only natural that he would reimagine him for KILLERS. There's a cool art book out for all the Iron Maiden cover art called Run for Cover: The Art of Derek Riggs, do check that out.
