1980's music
“Piece of Mind” released by Iron Maiden
Piece of Mind is the fourth studio album by British heavy metal band Iron Maiden, released on May 16th 1983. It was the first album to feature what is now widely considered the definitive Iron Maiden line-up of Steve Harris, Bruce Dickinson, Adrian Smith, Dave Murray and new drummer Nicko McBrain. It features the classic Iron Maiden tracks, “Flight of Icarus” and “The Trooper”
AC/DC release “Back in Black”
Devastated by the death of lead singer Bon Scott, at the untimely age of 33 and due in no doubt to his hard living ways, Angus Young, Malcolm Young and the other members of AC/DC were faced with the conundrum of what to do and seriously contemplated disbanding. The fact that they didn’t and then went on to release “Back In Black“, not only their biggest record ever but one of the top selling albums of all time, says a lot for both the act and new singer Brian Johnson.
