Obviously, and i think we all demand it, it's only fair ;)
What i mean to say is that over the years Derek has said some (i think unfair) nasty things about Maiden. And i was referring to the fact that Maiden did really need everything done fast around them at that time because they themselves...
For some reason i always thought Derek is really a moaner... I mean, Maiden worked at a VERY fast pace in the 80's, so it's only natural that they NEEDED things done at a very fast pace as well, you know what i mean? It's not exactly like they pushed poor Derek just because...

Btw, i'm really happy that i finally found someone around here who speaks portuguese, although i'm yet to find someone who lives in portugal...
