Someone who as opposed to you amounted to something. Why?Who is Dennis Stratton?
Stratton is a song writer with a similar style to Adrian. Just as with Adrian, he didnt get to write for his first album with the band. In 1995 Maiden relied much on Harris and Gers had to step in. Gers hadnt written that much for Maiden before so Im sure it was hard on him. If Di'Anno was easier to work with I cant see why not. Killswich Engage is s band that is popular (I dont listen to them though) that managed to replace a popular singer with their original singer!No replacement for Bruce was ever going to be popular, and nobody cares very much about Stratton. Besides, we're talking about two people who were fired from the band previously. I doubt Steve ever considered reaching out to either.
Harsh.Someone who as opposed to you amounted to something.
Killswitch Engage are a popular band, yes, but they were never one of the biggest bands on the planet. The circumstances surrounding Jesse Leach's (I think that's his name) and Howard Jones' departures from the band are different from those of Paul and Bruce. Steve replaced Paul with Bruce because he wanted to step up to the next level. Bring Paul back in the 90s would have been a step backwards.Killswich Engage is s band that is popular (I dont listen to them though) that managed to replace a popular singer with their original singer!
Oh no, dont get me wrong. I think its a great album. But would the fans accepted the situation better with former members in the band instead of Janick and Blaze?Nah, I wouldn't want the 1995 studio album to sound any different.
And the original comment was not?Harsh.

No. Many disliked 'The X Factor' because it didn't have Bruce, not because Blaze was bad. If another band had released that album it would have been received more favourably. The songs wouldn't have been appropriate for Paul's vocal style anyway. Can you imagine Paul singing 'Sign of the Cross'?

Sorry for going off-topic here but this thing bugs me. How were you even able to lay your hands on bands like Wolfsbane in the early 90s and late 80s here?Not that I expected it - I had heard him with Wolfsbane before.
