Singer, songwriter, pilot, author, fencing champ, air raid siren, force of nature: Bruce Dickinson is simply a man for whom many of the normal rules and restrictions of life do not seem to apply. Heavy metal’s premier Renaissance man is, of course, best known as vocalist and frontman with Iron Maiden, the greatest British metal band of all time and, some four decades after they originally formed, still one of the most widely adored bands on the planet. But as anyone that has followed Bruce’s story will tell you, singing with Maiden is just one part of his grand, substantial and fascinating musical life. Remarkably, given that he is just as likely to be found flying an airliner, Bruce has amassed a formidable catalogue as a solo artist, releasing six extraordinary studio albums that, at this point, represent his freewheeling efforts to date.Limited edition box set containing all six of Bruce Dickinson’s solo albums : Tattooed Millionaire, Balls To Picasso, Skunkworks, Accident Of Birth, The Chemical Wedding & A Tyranny Of Souls. These have all been remastered by Andy Pearce & pressed on 180g vinyl for optimum audio.

Bargain in a box
Being a long term Maiden fan, I realised a few months ago that I hadn't paid much attention to Bruce's solo efforts. I downloaded all 6 of his albums from Amazon Music and gave them each a fair listen and was blown away. Being a vinyl collector, I soon discovered that "Soloworks" had been released and decided to purchase from Amazon, for a bargain £104 (9 vinyl records!!). The packaging is superb and the sound quality is the best I've heard! If you're considering this as a purchase and you're a fan of Bruce's solo efforts, then don't hesitate. You won't be disappointed with this purchase! The album artwork is also superb. I'd give this 6 stars if I could and I can't say enough good things about it. Very happy customer, thank you Amazon and thanks to the greatest frontman of all time. Gotta go now, I can hear an air raid siren 🤣

Good collection.
As a long time Iron maiden and Bruce Dickinson fan I have all the albums on cd. However wanted to get the vinyl collection as well. The albums themselves play brilliantly and sound excellent.

Brucey Bonus
This is an amazing set. Well manufactured, great quality vinyl, and above all the music. Ordered following Bruce's book stint. What an amazing year 2017 was for Maiden fans. :)

Digital Download?
Great albums but no digital downloads when you buy the box set which you would get if you bought them separately. Pay for more and get less...

Not made for the fans but for the Record Label profits.
I don't really know how it does it works. But these reissue box sets that record labels are releasing these days seems to be done on the interest of the profits and not with the fans and the band in mind. YES it it the full discography, finally in a LP box set. BUT why so cheap? the printing in general, the record covers, the colors are just dark or dull, also some of them are pixelled! the inserts are super basic. I just expected something better for the money, it's disappointing for the fans and the bands. It also happened to me when ordered the Skid Row full discography LP box set.
