    Kevin Shirley’s production of Senjutsu

    Blaze wrote the vocal parts for those tracks based on music that his band members came up with. Guitarist Steve Wray wrote the main riff in The Brave for example, and all band members except Jeff Singer, contributed different parts to Stare at the Sun, according to the At the end of the Day...

    Blaze Bayley

    Just a Steve Harris vibe to my ears...he claimed back his former writing role in the band on Senjutsu, while some other band members did less this time.

    The Future Past tour 2023

    I think they would play something like The Clairvoyant instead of Wratchild now, if another track doesn't work out (like in 2010).

    Official Hockey discussion thread

    I just came to think about that the swedish hockey leagues stopped using the national anthem pre-game a while ago. Some teams play their own anthems instead, like this: This would never happen in North America though!

    Blaze co-wrote tracks on Brave New World?

    Here's the White Spirit track from 1981: Janick and a keyboard player is playing those riffs. It's also funny that the lyrical theme is very similar to the lyrics in The Mercenary - "killing to survive".

    Blaze co-wrote tracks on Brave New World?

    Yes. Blaze has stated, after that he was presented with Adrian's comments, that he co-wrote Dream of Mirrors (Gers/Harris) and recorded some vocals on a demo of Blood Brothers (Harris): 7:17 They bought him out from Dream of Mirrors though and therefore didn't have to credit him. And the...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Steve wrote the music, but the lyrics (and the vocal melody?) were 100 % by Blaze. Therefore, I don't think Steve or any other band member will push for that song. Back in 1998, Steve even preferred "The Angel and The Gambler", which he composed alone, as the first single from Virtual XI...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    I don't think the band need to do any more Blaze-era tracks now. 1999 - 2022: Ed Hunter: Man on The Edge, Futureal, The Clansman. Brave New World: Sign of the Cross, The Clansman. Give me Ed: The Clansman. Dance of Death: Lord of the Flies. Legacy: Sign of the Cross, The Clansman. Play...

    Like the album version, but Jeff Bova's orchestration is turned up in the mix.

    Kevin Shirley’s production of Senjutsu

    I think Blaze's Blood and Belief from 2004 were one of the first albums produced by Sneap with that particular sound. I don't think it would suit Maiden either.

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    I can understand them not wanting to include Blaze, as that period is viewed as a commercial failure (especially in the U.S and UK). But does Dennis Stratton, who didn't write a single song for the band and was more or less a "hired gun", really need to be included?

    Janick Gers

    These people don't like how Maiden sound after "Seven Sun", but they also claim that you can't hear his guitar in the mix! :bigsmile: Who's to blame then? Anyway, happy birthday and keep on rockin'! And here's some excellent old Janick riffs:

    The Future Past tour 2023

    I'm not entirely sure if Bruce thought Futureal worked really well for him, judging by this quote from 2018: https://blabbermouth.net/news/bruce-dickinson-really-enjoyed-singing-blaze-bayley-era-iron-maiden-songs On the other hand, I know that he said in an interview with Metal Hammer in...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    What about a song from the Book of Souls or The Final Frontier making the set instead of a Senjutsu track? This tour's "Lord of the Flies" (like in 2003 / 2004): Speed of Light, Death or Glory or Coming Home?
