IRON MAIDEN The Soundhouse Tapes - Mega rare genuine original UK 3-track Rock Hard Records label vinyl 7" EP, released on the 9th November 1979 and features three songs taken from the 'Spaceward' demo tape. The songs were recorded by the band on New Year's Eve 1978/79 and includes 'Iron Maiden', 'Invasion' and 'Prowler' - two of the tracks appear on their first album with a more polished sound whilst 'Invasion' would become the B-Side to the 'Women In Uniform' single - the versions on this EP are in a more original form. This was also the only recording to feature the band as a four piece [Paul Di'Anno - Vocals, Dave Murray - guitar, Steve Harris - bass guitar and Doug Sampson - drums]. Complete with the original top opening heavy card flipback picture sleeve with the correct original cut out angled curve on the back.

Comes in the original sleeve which has only a few minor storage marks. The vinyl is excellent with a bright sheen and on close inspection has only a few light sleeve removal surface marks and plays without any problems. It still sounds amazing. Overall an excellent copy of this legendary item, now hard to find genuine copies in great condition.

What makes this highly sought after record even more unique is that the front of the sleeve has been signed at the time of purchase from an early live gig by the original vocalist Paul Dianno.
