On this day, October 27, 1980, Iron Maiden released their version of “Women in Uniform,” originally by the Australian band Skyhooks. The cover was released as a standalone single and marked a departure from their typical style, offering a glimpse of their ability to adapt and experiment with different sounds. While it didn’t appear on any of their studio albums, “Women in Uniform” remains a unique part of Iron Maiden’s early catalog, highlighting their take on a punk-influenced track.

Who remembers hearing Iron Maiden’s version of “Women in Uniform”? Did you enjoy their take on the Skyhooks’ classic?
