Bruce Dickinson – Accident Of Birth (2CD, Expanded Edition)

OE04042

Accident of Birth is the fourth studio album by Bruce Dickinson, released on 3 June 1997^[1] through Castle Communications' sub‑label Raw Power in the UK and through CMC International in the US.

Dickinson's second collaboration with guitarist/producer Roy Z, the album is markedly different in style from his previous effort, Skunkworks. As well as Roy Z, Dickinson was joined for the album by fellow former Iron Maiden member Adrian Smith; both Dickinson and Smith would later return to their former band in early 1999. Thanks to the slightly bigger success of this album than his previous solo releases, Dickinson would continue to work with Roy Z on his subsequent albums, The Chemical Wedding (1998) and Tyranny of Souls (2005) and The Mandrake Project (2024)
