Iron Maiden - Aces High - Album: Powerslave (1984) - guitar cover with solo by Jassy J , backingtrack without original guitars =)
Something REALLY iconic this time! Already featured "The Trooper" and other classic Iron Maiden riffs in my Metal Top 15 Riff Lists! Many of you suggested "Aces High" year by year and it finally got real because of the Patreon Guitar Cover Voting! Since this year I want to develop more as a lead player, I kindly took this opportunity!
I used a guitarless backingtrack which means that EVERY guitar you hear is played by me. Nothing got covered up by the original track. Big Plus! Minus: Some parts of the track just sound weird, I had to do a lot of mixing/mastering haha! I even had to record the bass myself at some spots, did you spot which parts?
PATREON GUITAR COVER WISH!
Let me know in the comments below how you enjoyed this one! 😃
Also: If you have any questions about how to record outdoor covers feel free to ask me. This time however I pre-recorded the track so that I have the best outcome of cinematography and audio possible! Many of my other outdoor videos and all indoor videos are live!
NOTE: I used a backingtrack with boosted bass and triple tracked both of the guitars. I play all the guitar parts.
THANK YOU TO my dear friend BIRDYNARY for shooting the video!

🎶 LYRICS 🎶
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
There comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble, we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack
Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheel blocks
There's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Got to get airborne before it's too late
[Pre-Chorus]
Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving
[Chorus]
Run, live to fly
Fly to live, do or die
Won't you run, live to fly
Fly to live, aces high
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round to come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again
Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us
Ten ME-109s out of the sun
Ascending and turning our Spitfires to face them
Heading straight for them I press down my guns
[Pre-Chorus]
Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, doing it again
Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving
[Chorus]
Run, live to fly
Fly to live, do or die
Won't you run, live to fly
Fly to live, aces high!
