"Live After Death" was recorded at California's Long Beach Arena in March 1985 on the band's legendary year-long World Slavery Tour, which saw the group play 187 shows around the globe; the project also features additional tracks recorded at London's legendary Hammersmith Apollo.

"Rock In Rio" captures a January 19, 2001 performance before 100,000 fans at the iconic Brazilian festival on the final night of Iron Maiden's Brave New World Tour;

The Live Collection - Remastered follows the recent releases of The Studio Collection, a four-part series of releases detailing the UK band's entire 16-album catalog.
