Dave Murray

I love K.K.

Downing and Glenn Tipton, and I love Dave Murray and Adrian Smith from Iron Maiden.

And I think that Eddie Ojeda, J.J. French is often overlooked as far as like a top tier guitar tandem.

Just talk about your chemistry.

Cause I don't know the discography at all, but, um, fair enough.

Josh is Dave Murray using Paul Kossoff strat for this track.

Ooh, okay.

I'm looking forward to the

And then, you know, we come out left field completely at the very end of it and have a kind of a galloping part, very, very reminiscent of like Iron Maiden.

And then I would say that Brian definitely gets his inner Dave Murray on.

He lays down solo.

It's very reminiscent of Dave Murray from Iron Maiden, for sure.

See, what I love about your band is you're not afraid of rock and roll's family tree.

In other words, that everybody is connected through inspiration and or you know them.

So, you know, Steve Harris is always very cool.

Dave Murray is so smooth.

He's just fantastic.

Adrian Smith's back there.

I don't think Yannick Gers, I could be wrong, I don't think Yannick Gers is still there.

It was definitely Adrian Smith and Dave Murray, right? And the fucking unbelievable bass player that is Steve Harris.

Like, those guys were there.

And they have a new drummer, Nicko McBain, sorry.

We'll come back to Steve in a moment.

We've got Dave Murray.

We've got Adrian Smith.

We've got Nico McBrain.

it was, I remember when I started playing, I was heavy into Maiden and Metallica.

So like, definitely Dave Murray at first was like my guy with Maiden.

You know, then I learned about Richie Blackmore.

So then I went down the big deep purple hole and got way into that and clapped and, you know, meeting Richie and his family and friends very much into blues and stuff.

I'm talking about ZZ Top.

In the case of Iron Maiden... they've had three different singers across their career of albums different drummers different guitarists the only person um that has remained constant is steve harris and then later when dave murray came in but The thing is, Steve would assemble a band and I think he could call it legitimately Iron Maiden because that's all he's ever done anyway, is put a band around him and called it Iron Maiden.

Right.

When it comes

And then another huge tour.

I mean, they were a behemoth at that time.

And it was the last of, as it were, the classic Adrian Smith, Dave Murray, Steve Harris, Nico on drums and Bruce on vocals because Adrian was about to leave.

Yeah.
