Editor's note

Bruce Dickinson, the voice of Iron Maiden

The singer behind 'The Number of the Beast' also carved out a solo path with records like 'Accident of Birth'.

For the classic metal sound, 'Where Eagles Dare' is the one. If you want the solo side, try 'Tears of the Dragon'.

His voice on early Iron Maiden albums like 'The Number of the Beast' defined a whole era of heavy metal. That same voice later turned inward on solo tracks like 'Tears of the Dragon', showing a more reflective side. It's the range from '2 Minutes To Midnight' to his own 'Hell No' that makes his catalog worth hearing.

He joined Iron Maiden in 1981 and recorded 'Powerslave' with them a few years later. His solo work started with 'Tattooed Millionaire' in 1990, then moved through different rock sounds on albums like 'Skunkworks'. A throat cancer diagnosis in 2015 paused his touring for a bit.

Archive material and source history

Bruce Dickinson is best known as the lead singer of Iron Maiden, the British heavy metal band he joined in 1981. With them, he recorded albums like 'The Number of the Beast' and 'Powerslave' in the early 1980s. His voice became one of the defining sounds of that era of metal.

Alongside his work with Iron Maiden, Dickinson has maintained a solo career. His first solo album was 'Tattooed Millionaire' in 1990. Later records like 'Skunkworks' and 'Accident of Birth' explored different rock textures. A track like 'Tears of the Dragon' from 2005's 'Tyranny of Souls' shows his taste for more reflective, ballad-driven material.

He was born in Worksop, England in 1958. In 2015, he was diagnosed with throat cancer, which interrupted his touring schedule for a time.
