"The veteran British rock band's "A Matter of Life and Death" (Capitol/EMI) opens at No. 1 on European Top 100 Albums"

"The runner-up on Top 100 Albums is also new, as Bob Dylan's "Modern Times" "

This at least proves that if democracy and capitalism are the judges, then Iron Maiden are better than Bob Dylan. So cardigan wearing geography teachers can just go shove their copies of Blonde On Blonde up their isthmuses.

"cardigan wearing geography teachers"

So that's Dylan's fan base? I wonder why I saw so many college punks dancing in front of the stage at a recent show.

Because Iron Maiden were on holiday.

Is the album that Iron Maiden were going to "not produce"? Cos if so, it proves Dylan's point.

I have bought both albums but they're still sealed, today I will make them fight it out to the death, Beneath the Planet of the Apes-style!

Iron Maiden > Bob Dylan*

*for people whose first language is not English (hence why they outsell him on European charts, but not on British or American ones)

Internationally, "Modern Times" opened at No. 1 in Australia, Canada, Denmark, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway and Switzerland, according to Columbia.
