Iron Maiden plans to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the 40th anniversary  The Number Of The Beast with a commemorative cassette release on March 18th!

The cassette is comprised of the 2015 remastered recordings of the original eight songs on the album as listed below, with front cover art based on the 1982 C-60 cassette release plus a re-designed & updated inlay. Ultimately it’s a tribute to a watershed album that sold in its millions in record stores all around the world; a celebration of those bygone times and a fitting souvenir for the fans who have loyally followed the band ever since.
