Poster size bapak besar, selit dalam LP. Tilam single bed tu saja buat perbandingan besar.

Atas permintaan peminat IRON MAIDEN tersohor, deafangel, yang ada 12" ni tapi takde posternya.

Ikut kata IRON MAIDEN commentary, single ni dirilis pada 10 September 1990. Dimana kamu ketika itu? Aku masih di Tingkatan 3. Tengah SRP.

Holy Smoke was the first Maiden single from the No Prayer For The Dying album, and the first single with Janick Gers in the band. It is also the first single following The First Ten Years box set, making it a bit rarer and harder to acquire. The cover picture features the familliar depth and symbolism of Derek Riggs, showing Eddie standing atop a mound of flaming T.V. preacher broadcasts (why not burn the preachers instead?) and about to smash the televised eye of big-brother religion. Maiden recorded a couple of cover tunes as B-sides for this one, after the variety of live tracks and re-recordings that rounded out the previous three singles.

1. Holy Smoke (Harris, Dickinson) - lagu berentak gembira ala-ala Can I Play With Madness. Even dalam videoklip pun lawak (lihat bawah). Berkenaan dengan TV sermon yang dikatakan cashing out of the pain of others.

2. All In Your Mind (Bromham) - was originally recorded by the British band Stray for their 1970 self-titled debut album. Lagu lembik. Tapi kalau dengar betul-betul memang ada bagi influence kat IRON MAIDEN. Dengar part awal sebelum vokal masuk. Err... ke pasal IRON MAIDEN yang main? heheheh...

3. Kill Me Ce Soir (Kooymans, Hay, Fenton) - This is a Golden Earring song from their album The Continuing Story Of Radar Love. Still lembik. Intro ada macam serupa feel dengan All In Your Mind.
