We have just received two great reviews from music journalist Kevin Julie who lives in beautiful Niagara Falls Ontario Canada, and writes for “Outsider Rock”. Kevin recently got in touch with Paul, to discuss an article he is writing about the 3 (yes THREE) bands (excluding the great girl rockers the Iron Maidens) who have used the name Iron Maiden. Its wonderful to see this journalist has really done his homework and got the facts dead right! Well worth a read https://outsiderrock.wordpress.com/2021/07/07/the-bolton-iron-maiden-1970-76-today/ Not only does he do a cracking history of the three bands, he has also reviewed all three Bolton Iron Maiden albums!

We look forward to an interview with Kevin soon.

Puppet Master – the new Bolton Iron Maiden Album will be released in CD format and Downloads.

They will be first available from the BIM and Paul TJ O’Neill websites on the morning of the 14th, then they should be available from all the usual on-line outlets.

Enjoy!

We have added a new page to the site!

We are going to add memories of band members and fans – so if you have any happy memories of the band – please send an e-mail (no more than 50 words) to the email address in the e-mail tab.

The new Paul TJ O’Neill/The Bolton Iron Maiden album – PUPPET MASTER – THE RISE AND RISE OF SLICK DANDY is now available for pre-order. Just visit the shop within this website to check it out! http://theboltonironmaiden.com/bim-store/#!/Music-&-CDs/c/3132139/offset=0&sort=normal

We were very sad to learn that Kev Miller, our friend who introduced Paul Ian and Derek way back in 1967 has passed away peacefully.

Kev had been suffering for a while, but Pauline his wife informed me that his organs had finally failed, and he passed away surrounded by his family.
