Summary

Bruce Dickinson returns to talk about “The Mandrake Project,” his first new solo album in some 20 years! And of course, in true Bruce fashion, this “project” is so much more than just an album; it’s a comic book series and tour too! Bruce talks about the timing of the album, the meaning behind Mandrake, what it was like to work with guitarist Roy Z again, and how he managed to write and produce a comic book series at the same time (with a little help from “Sons of Anarchy” creator, writer, and director Kurt Sutter). Bruce shares behind-the-scenes stories from the making of the “Afterglow of Ragnarok” and “Rain On The Graves” music videos, including the role that Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” played, and the unexpected visitor that came to set one day.
