RIP Paul Di'Anno

He was, by his own admission, an idiot. But he seemed to have realised that in later life and tried to make amends.

I always liked his voice. The production on the first album is atrocious so it's it's hard to judge but he sounded great on Killers.

Never saw him live. My first Maiden show was 1982 with Bruce, but they still had Clive Burr on drums.

RIP.
I found those first two Iron Maidon records to be groundbreaking. They were a Mashup of genres, and ahead of their time.

He was definitely more of a bad boy than any member of that band. I dig his work on Killers. Well, it's the only Iron Maiden album I dig anyway, but still..

RIP

I recall Bruce describing it as like 'bees in a bottle'

I thought it sounded good. Martin Birch was something special though. He did everything after that, through Fear Of The Dark.
