Ah this is sooooooo hard!! I have to say I love the first 2 Maiden albums the best, but also love Bruce. I will vote a little later. Much thinking to be done on this.

Bruce wins it just for sheer volume and longevity.
But Killers and Iron Maiden are classic.
I stopped paying attention after Power Slave but I'd seen 'em at least a time or two by then.
I picked up a pic disk set of Brave New World in trade at a record store when it first came out. Okay but nothing really amazing.
They played in Seattle (Tacoma, actually) and I didn't go. Some peeps
that did said Maiden played primarily new material and only a bare handfull of classics...I would have been bummed.

The last good album for mine is Seventh Son...
The best are indeed Killers and Iron Maiden. Killers was my first intro to Maiden.

I voted Dianno. 
I don't mind Bruce but my favourite albums are the first two. And Blaze is seriously underated.
Maiden tend not to play many early songs unless its been in the set-list for years. They played a lot of older stuff on the last tour but only because it was specifically a 'classics' tour.

The Classic Albums documentary on Number of the Beast was on TV last week. It was really interesting, but a little too much dickinson. Despite his over the top ways and feather mask, i think that bruce is still the best iron maiden had for what they were. Dianno was really edgy and great too, but i think that maiden grew out of him; he couldn't have done what dickinson did in the albums following dianno's departure.
That being said, i think it was a lot of dickinson the lead to the demise of maiden (besides the tastes of fans moving to heavier faster stuff). His writing on somewhere in time and seventh son, where i think they really took a turn, was pretty cheesy and crappy.
Maiden did leave a great legacy though. Piece of Mind has to be one of the greatest albums of that era, along with number of the beast.

Gotta go old school . . . Dianno was the original and best. Dickinson shoulda stuck it out with Samson instead of jumping ship!

I like it when Brice Dickinson asked Blue Oyster Cult to add more cowbell.
Truly a defining moment in rock history.
