Johnny Rivers - Seventh Son. Great version of the old R&B classic on Liberty

One of the things I like about the video for this tune was it features Graham Chapman of Monty Python fame, one of the last things he did before he died.

Yep, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son is a great album. I see why it's a favourite for many.
Personally, I enjoy Powerslave and Number Of The Best a tad bit more. And if I'd had to choose, I'd also prefer Somewhere In Time.

But still, #SeventhSonOfASeventhSon is a great album --> 4 out of 5 half rotted Eddies.

πŸ’Ώ ranking (up until SSOASS):
1. Powerslave 4,5
2. Beast 4,5
3. Time 4
4. Seventh Son 4
5. Iron Maiden 3,5
6. Killers 3
7. Piece of Mind 2
