Iron Maiden célèbre son histoire avec une rétrospective en deux volets : Eddie's Archive, un coffret collector de six CD en concert, et Edward the Great, une compilation « Best of » de 16 titres incontournables vendue séparément.
Eddie's Archive : le coffret collector 6 CD en concert
Les deux premiers disques du coffret proposent des enregistrements BBC couvrant la période 1979-1988. On y trouve une session studio avec le chanteur originel Paul Di'Anno, les prestations au festival de Reading en 1980 et 1982, ainsi qu'une performance au Monsters of Rock de Donington en 1988.
Les disques 3 et 4 contiennent l'intégrale du concert légendaire donné au Hammersmith Odeon de Londres en 1982.
Enfin, les deux derniers disques réunissent une collection de faces B, avec des reprises notables comme Cross-Eyed Mary de Jethro Tull, My Generation des Who et Doctor Doctor de UFO.
Edward the Great : compilation Best of 16 titres
La compilation Edward the Great rassemble 16 chansons emblématiques du groupe britannique, notamment Run to the Hills, The Number of the Beast, Wasted Years et The Wicker Man. Elle inclut également une version live de Fear of the Dark enregistrée au festival Rock in Rio.
