Welcome to the Vinyl Vault hosted by Dominik Diamond
The show that blows dust off your favourite albums to see how they make you feel today. Dominik won’t just fling out facts you already know. It’s a listening party, not Wikipedia. A time in the week we can immerse ourselves in those records again.
Do they sound different? What memories do they stir? Can they still move us all those years later?
Dominik wants to know your answers. Post your feelings, memories, observations on our Facebook page. This is OUR show.
April 27th/28th – Iron Maiden – The Number Of The Beast
Two albums in, Iron Maiden had established themselves as heavy metal giants in their native UK, and were already renowned for their detailed and graphic album artwork. With a new lead singer, they released their 3rd album in 1982, generating misguided controversy, and scoring a platinum hit. This week, Dominik looks at why The Number Of The Beast is THE quintessential heavy metal album – from the music, to the artwork, and a story of a youthful awakening.
