Iron Maiden's Piece Of Mind released today 16th May in 1983, is their 4th studio album, recorded in the Bahama at Nassau's Compass Point Studios.

SMWS 39.174. The Shaman will see you now... A 28yo Linkwood matured in 1st-filled barrique/sauternes. Bottle kill and sad to see this one go 🥃🥃

The record was the first to feature drummer Nicko McBrain (ex-Trust, Pat Travers), who replaced Clive Burr, and has remained in the band since.

The band mocked those who had accused Iron Maiden of being Satanists after Number of the Beast came out. Between the songs “The Trooper” and “Still Life,” Iron Maiden included a brief section of backwards masking. In his best impression of British actor John Bird imitating African dictator Idi Amin, McBrain says, “What ho said the t'ing with the three 'bonce,' do not meddle with things you don't understand.”
