Blaze Bayley

[Spaldy]

The promotion for Virtual XI was done mostly by Steve. At the end of the day it was his solo album, wasn’t it?

Solo as in he was the only one who liked it.

And he played everything but lead guitar on it.

Regarding vocal training for Blaze, I would bet that this was never considered. It might have increased his range by a little bit, but certain songs were too much for him.

Also there is too much pride and in the world of rock and metal, especially when it comes to the badge of honour that is ‘being self-taught’. It’s not a badge of honour. It’s being too proud to admit someone can help develop your craft further.

We are trying to ignore the elephant in the room when it comes to your musical taste!

“As the best looking bloke in the band I told to ‘Arry: This is our best album. Fuck me old boots!”

Important to note, this is in C# minor, so instead of having to deal with B4s it's "only" much more manageable G#4s. In other words, it's three semitones lower.

And heck it works.

I think he sort of grew into his voice far better post Maiden. Seeing Blaze for the first time in a couple of weeks and seriously looking forward to it.
