Dickinson and his band performing in 2024

Bruce Dickinson is a heavy metal singer, whose career has spanned more than three decades. In early 1989, during his first tenure in Iron Maiden, Zomba asked Dickinson to contribute a track for the film A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child,[1] providing a budget, a studio, and a producer, Chris Tsangarides. Dickinson took up the opportunity and called an old friend of his, former Gillan guitarist Janick Gers.[2] Shortly after meeting, they had "Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter" ready for the studio, which was recorded with the assistance of bassist Andy Carr and drummer Fabio del Rio.[3] Impressed with the results, Zomba convinced Dickinson to record a full album using the same line-up, leading to 1990's Tattooed Millionaire.[4] A supporting tour followed, for which an unavailable Del Rio was replaced by drummer Dickie Fliszar.[5]
