On this day, October 22, 1984, Iron Maiden released the single “Aces High.” The high-energy track, inspired by World War II aerial combat, became one of the band’s most iconic songs. Featured on their album Powerslave, “Aces High” quickly became a fan favorite and is still performed live to this day, often serving as the opening song in their concerts.

Who remembers when Aces High first dropped? Did you own this single or the Powerslave album?
