 Don't look it up, at 72 it'll destroy your ears.

Iron Maiden is a famous and popular British heavy metal band formed in East London in 1975 and still going strong 45 years later. I'm surprised you never heard of them.

 Especially considering that Bruce Dickinson is a connoisseur of other kinds of heavy metal, namely aircraft and steam locomotives.

 @John: Imagine a construction site with guitars - that's all you want to know about it. ;)

 If it can’t be played at 78rpm, I don’t do it.

 I can check this for you. I (unintentionally) happen to own one of their vinyl albums somewhere. If I ever find it, I'll let you know what my gramophone makes of it. :D

I’m sure John would prefer the medieval box with heavy metal spikes ;)

johnfromstaffs EN

 I think that I would prefer the spikes to heavy metal music.

For musical relaxation I'll stay with Roger Wolff Kahn, or Jack Hylton.

I think Iron Maiden might be too much for JFS, I'm a 70's rock dinosaur and I don't like 'em. The bluesier end of Led Zep' might be a better introduction to the joys of the guitar riff.

 if i had to pick a british rock band for guitar introduction i think i'd prefer Pink Floyd :)

i don't know that much about Iron Maiden ( surprisingly ) i know the name, a few songs, they sold a bunch of T-shirts.. ;)

 Good little picture! Interesting to see Alan Hale, Jr. just before he took his "three-hour tour", and I got a good laugh out of the writers trying to pass off a Handley Page Victor bomber as a new British airliner :whistle:.

The tractors - sorry, traction engines - were new to me as vintage collectibles. Neat stuff.

 Tractor — Link to "archive.commercialmotor.com"

Traction engine — see above.

As far as the aircraft go, I don’t think we had got over the Comet disasters when this film was made. I recall being distinctly twitchy about flying on a DanAir Comet IV.

You may find some interest in looking up the locations used for this film which are listed by IMDB. I have memories of the Dorchester, but perhaps we’d best not go there!

 For once I'm really excited seeing these atmospheric pictures, wishing I was right there at this steam engine event in 1963 - and the movie isn't available on DVD! :/

 I attended quite a number of these events at the time. We had a local show every year that was both large and well attended by the public and the machines. They still have a number of gatherings every year, but now not locally.

I'll probably stick with Mike Pingitore on the banjo, thanks.
