Maiden A–Z 18: Charlotte The Harlot + Childhood’s End

The first chapter of the Charlotte saga, a strange little punky number with a Led Zeppelinesque breakdown and lyrics of a misfortunate love affair – comes around as the first number of the self-titled debut. With the drums in the chorus basically only snare-hits it does have a type of link to this week’s other tune – “Childhood’s End” – in which the chorus’s foundation is a smattering tom-pattern. Henrik is with us again to help get things right and orderly.
