1950's - ( I feel old!) I looked for some interesting facts about the year of my birth. It was before the Grammy awards began! It was the year that "Summertime Blues" by Eddie Cochran peaked at #8. And of course, Geddy, Alex and Neil were all born a few years before me, but still in the same decade. That makes the 50's the best decade!

[LyndseyG]

December 1979. Iron Maiden signed with EMI that same month and year, apparently.

Maybe us '90's kids just wised up and have good taste in music.

Gotta work on the 21st-Century generation now...
