A lot of water has passed under the bridge since Paul Di'Anno and
Iron Maiden first arose, primal heroes of the so-apocalyptic first
wave of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal.
But anyone who was there at the time is sure to remember the day
they brought home the band's self titled first album, dropped the
needle onto the vinyl (there were no CDs back then, remember), and
"Prowler" leaped out of the opening grooves - a wall of
destruction that knew no boundaries, musically or lyrically"
You see me crawling through the bushes
With it open wide
What you seeing, girl?
Ah, people don't write songs like that, anymore, and maybe Paul
Di'Anno was aware of that as he put together the set list for his
comeback tour in 2022. Just like it did on Iron Maiden, "The
Prowler" opened the show, and if it was a disturbing listen in
1980, it was positively shattering 42 years on.
The second single from the live concert that accompanies the
release of Wes Orshoski's already much-acclaimed Di'Anno: Iron
Maiden's Lost Singer documentary, "The Prowler" proves from the
outset that Di'Anno's body may have been through the wringer, but
his vocals, and his presence are untouched by time.
Like the movie, the CD Iron Maiden's Lost Singer serves up a
strikingly raw and intimate show, a testament not only to
Di'Anno's refusal to allow his long-term health problems and
disabilities (he had been confined to a wheelchair since the mid-
2010s) to hold him back, but also to the sheer devotion with which
his fans still regarded him.
Indeed, the fans are as much a part of the movie as Di'Anno, as it
tells how two loyal supporters, having encountered Di'Anno at the
lowest point of his life, set out to restore his health and
relaunch his career. It was their crowdfunding campaign that led
to Di'Anno relocating to Croatia, where - through the help of
those fans and doctors - he made a massive turnaround, climaxing
in a heroic and drama-filled return to the stage. All of this is
captured in Di'Anno: Iron Maiden's Lost Singer, which Orshoski
began shooting in 2017.
"For years there wasn't much to capture," says Orshoski, whose
credits include Lemmy, a study of the Motorhead frontman, and The
Damned: Don't You Wish That We Were Dead. "Paul was waiting for
surgeries that doctors in the U.K. would not green-light. He was
in an incredibly dark place. But once he got to Croatia, fans and
doctors gave him the hope he was desperately searching for. It was
beautiful to witness. I wanted to make a film that was unlike any
rock doc you've ever seen. And in the end, I think we got there."
One of icons of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal scene of the
late 1970s and early 1980s, London-born Di'Anno helped launch Iron
Maiden around the world, appearing on two of the most foundational
metal albums ever released: Iron Maiden's 1980 self-titled debut
and the celebrated follow-up, Killers, released in 1981. In one of
the most epic sagas in metal history, Di'Anno left Maiden in 1981
and was replaced by Bruce Dickinson, leaving metal fans around the
world to debate which line-up and which singer was/is better. It's
a debate that continues to this day, almost 50 years later.
Orshoski finished work on the film (which was shot in England,
Croatia, Brazil and the United States) shortly before Di'Anno's
death at 66 in October 2023. Di'Anno: Iron Maiden's Lost Singer
has been screening at European film festivals.
The film will see its North American Theatrical Premier for public
audiences at the Lumiere Music Hall Theater, 9036 Wilshire Blvd,
Beverly Hills, CA 90211 on June 9 at 7 PM, which is also the
official North American release date for both the digital VOD and
Home Entertainment DVD/Blu Ray formats.
Ripper's Notes:
I suspect they will be milking Paul for every cent his memory is
worth for years to come. I am, and will continue to be, part of
the problem. I've already got another posthumous release on the
way.
This CD, officially titled 'Paul Di'Anno Live In Zagred At Biker's
Beer Factory. 5-21-22' is packaged together with the DVD of the movie.
The package itself is called 'Iron Maiden's Lost Singer.' Since THAT
is the name on the packaging, and the official CD name is so damn long,
I've used 'Iron Maiden's Lost Singer' as the name of this release.
No, I'm not including a DVD rip because it's a pain in the ass to rip,
and not every site will allow it.
If you chose to share this, or any other release, elsewhere,
please give the original ripper/uploader the respect they deserve
by leaving it intact and giving credit where credit is due.
