ReplyDeletealbum yang buat aku tahu pasal Iron Maiden (bebudak dulu ingatkan sebutannya IRAN...heheh) ...member sekampung geng2 BMX pakai tshirt ni masa awal tahun 80an...walaupun tu jam tak pernah dengar pun lagunya macamaner...
ReplyDeleteSteve harris ngan rod smallwood dah confirmkan bruce dickinson untuk join in dari samson. Bruce pun memang nak masuk.
ReplyDeleteAku rasaselain disiplin dan attitude, steve harris dah gambarkan muzik maiden untuk masa depan tu jam tnotb yang tak sesuai ngan paul nye punk. Dan paul memang attitude rabak. Hal disiplin mungkin kot tapi dia suka sakitkan hati maiden lain ngan punk attitude dia. Killers is banyak lagu leftover zaman sebelum dorang jadi artis emi. Tnotb ialah permulaan tulis lagu baru sepenuhnya
Ni first production martin birch. First album will malone yang tak buat apa2 pun. Sebenarnya steve harris nak martin birch produce dari 1st album, tapi dia takut
