The Whole Population of Hackney.

Recorded live at 'The Marquee', London, England. Dec 19, 1985


This is actually a 'side project' that Nicko and Adrian did while Maiden were on an extended break in 1985. Together with Dave Colwell (guitar - Samson), Andy Barnnet (guitar - Urchin & FM) and Martin Connoly (Nicko's Friend), they did a gig at the famous Marquee Club in London under the name of "The Whole Population of Hackney" and Adrian did vocal duties. A nice treat is that Bruce, Dave and Steve join them for the Encore and do a few songs with them (with Bruce on vox of course).

This is the full show, very good audience recording.

I don't think Murray joined the band...
