BMG will mark the 40th anniversary of Iron Maiden’s third album, The Number Of The Beast, with a commemorative cassette release that will be available in the US as an independent record store exclusive on March 25. For more info on stores and availability visit thinkindie.com. For fans outside of the US, find pre-order links here.

This seminal recording, first released in the UK on March 22, 1982 - and the first to feature Bruce Dickinson as vocalist – catapulted Iron Maiden to international stardom and set them on course for the spectacular trajectory of success which the band continues to enjoy and develop to this day.

The cassette is comprised of the 2015 remastered recordings of the original eight songs on the album as listed below, with front cover color art based on the 1982 C-60 cassette release plus a re-designed & updated inlay. Ultimately, it’s a tribute to a watershed album that sold in its millions in record stores all around the world; a celebration of those bygone times and a fitting souvenir for the fans who have loyally followed the band ever since.

Says Iron Maiden: "Lots of you probably heard NOTB for the first time on cassette... now everyone gets a chance to relive the wonder of having to turn it over halfway through then realizing you need to rewind a bit! Yes, kids... This is how we used to do it 40 years ago!"
