as i listen to more and more of their catalog, i slowly begin to agree

[@thisnamedosntmatter2u352]

fifthof Name some better

[@thisnamedosntmatter2u352]

fifthof Ok. Dimebag was better than both of them combined but and maybe there’s better than Adrian but who else sounds like Dave. His writing of solos and his playing is just incredible. Adrian is a better writer, I prefer daves solos.

[@jeremycubs8331]

Dave Murray the most underrated guitar player on the planet.

[@ClaudioToretto]

Claro que não

[@failmiserably]

I don't believe he is underrated. He is far more humble than all the others and plays for the sake of the music instead of for the sake of his own ego as many did. The issue is that playing for ego gets you more recognition as an individual, but i believe that Maiden without Murray's input is slim to nothingness which surely can't make him underrated even if his presence is more subconscious for many.

[@tomsorrell4918]

[@alanfrehley1373]

Two nice blokes, ALWAYS happy to sign and meet their fans. Genuine and not fake!

[@Disciple0fMetal]

Dave is a very very underrated player. We know adrian had his solo thing and played with bruce whe they were away from maiden but you never really hear as much about dave. I'd definitely love to see more in depth videos about his style.

[@alienstarguest]

Honestly, heavy music or not. Parents should have no worries with these two as role models. Such super solid guys. Even wild stories of women are not rampant computer to other rock gods.

[@MsBenlane]

adrian wrote an excellent book monsters of rivers and rock that also covers his fishing experiences. there is the rock star, sleeping in a tent, ready to make some tea and fish. just another regular guy in the bait shop.

[@lisascarrott6142]

Lovely to hear and see these two legends alive and well after nearly 20 years doing this interview I would love them to still be alive in the next twenty years I hope they are. They are the best two guitarists I love how humble they are and nothing is to much trouble for them they are so hard working but so joyful living proof that they are loving what they do they dont tour for the money or retire and watch the money income come running in they do it because they love doing it and love their fans. Dave always have a smile on his face no matter what very joyful person bless them and all the other band members. Thank you Dave and adrian and iron maiden band members blessings to you all ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I wouldn't really call this current, it's from 2005. I can assure you that they wouldn't say anything good about Ozzfest in a current interview.

These two are the only reason I picked up a guitar 17 years ago. Cheers lads love ya

[@Jackrabbit_Slim]

Worshiped these guys when I was in high school and I'm glad. Chill awesome dudes.

[@RScott413]

At the time of this interview Murray and Smith had been playing together for 30 years, since 75 and now they approach 50 years. I saw Maiden for the first time in 1982 and many times but 40 years ago I saw the Powerslave tour and nothing has touched it since.

[@jbearmcdougall1646]

Those two were buddies at school.. great story indeed..!

[@smokeycat2011]

I just saw their show a couple of weeks ago they were incredible. Dave, Adrian and Janick feed really well off of each other.

[@korgond]

brilliant musicians with amazing careers. much respect!

[@mauriciogarcia7818]

Awesome interview. Best rock band without doubt.

[@pipschannel1222]

So funny: if you look at Adrian's expression as a response to the question asked at 2:48. He initially never really wanted to go back to that raw sound from the beginning. Adrian has always been the one to conbtribute to Maiden's more progressive albums. He brought the synths on Somewhere in Time and 7th Son, making them 2 of Maiden's most original albums.. In fact, that's why he left Maiden in the first place: they wanted to return to the more early, raw sound and he did not. At least at first. He has always had a very strong opinion about the band's direction and is a perfectionist pur sang, but he isn't as expressive as, for example, Steve and Bruce, so it must have been a very hard decision: leaving Maiden. I guess later when he returned, he must have really regretted the choice he made in the early 1990s and returned, making history again, compromising his principles a bit. So he just looks at Dave: you go ahead and anwer this one :-) Maiden without H is like the Beatles without Paul..

[@TheRedSetterr]

+Pip Master Someone commented he was rather unhappy with the finished work on the production of The Final Frontier...know if there's any truth to this?

[@pipschannel1222]

I really don't know.. Really liked his progressive influence on Somewhere in Time and 7th Son though. I'm affraid I never heard anything like those brilliant albums ever since..

[@jeskop1]

+Pip Master totally agree. When I listen to SSOASS or Somewhere in Time I still can't believe that they are 25 years old. It's like they were released last month. Then you listen to No Prayer and that's when you realize that something went wrong.

[@TheRedSetterr]

The closest in quality to that era I'd say is AMOLAD. Some others may disagree on the last greatest Maiden album since those first heyday years, but it must be extremely difficult to follow up with outstanding pieces of work such as those...

[@MK-so2eo]

The best song to date is "Fear of the Dark". Agree? And the album is also popular. Where was Adrian? He did nothing. Also to the 1st Maiden album. Yes a guitarist can bring new styles or sound, but Maiden is 100% Steve (although he is bassist). If he did not exist, we wouldn't hear any Maiden songs. Maiden could continue their success after the departure of Adiran if Bruce remained as their vocal. The fans were sick to hear the voice of Blaze. Imagine "The X Factor and Virtual XI" had Bruce. Blaze was the main cause to lose fans. If someone else (with a good voice) or Bruce did not leave, Maiden would still have been at the best without Adrian. Remember Steve and Dave are the only members to have performed all the albums.

Dave is always happy these guys are both very underrated humble decent people love em both🤟🤟🤟👍👍👍

[@vbassone]

No interviewer!; at 3:40 you state;"as the band's original guitar duo." They are NOT the ORIGINAL guitar duo, the ORIGINAL guitar duo on RECORD was actually Dennis Stratton and Dave Murray. Adrain Smith replaced Stratton. So, AGAIN, people confuse the term "original" with "classic." Smith and Murray are the CLASSIC Maiden guitar duo, but not the ORIGINAL.

[@Creativeworxmotionmedia]

you tell'em!!

@@Creativeworxmotionmedia I had to man, that is totally annoying. That term "original" gets thrown around and misused so often it's ridiculous! They say original when they mean classic......

Iron Maiden for an hour? Forget it it. Need 2 at LEAST. Didn't play 2 mins to midnight even with a 20 minute encore and a couple others I'd like to have heard July 5th 2017 Oakland. They're better than ever and got here with zero radio play, just mtv videos in the old days. Much love and respect for the duo here, up the Irons!

Love playing it, love that Fender made the effort to make it a available. Maiden forever!!!

[@AllisterCooper2008]

Dave's a bit tan from living in Maui, where he calls home for many years now :).

[@hanslund308]

+AllisterCooper2008 he might be the type that gets red instead of Brown.

[@AllisterCooper2008]

hans lund Good point! I remember he got married in Hawaii too, and the band attended :). Some people just like the sun ;). Peace always!

[@thestr8person]

I would love to live in Maui sheesh! who wouldn't? I think he's not very tanned because he's been on the road and I've never seen him very tanned anyway! maybe at various times in the 80's when he was an avid scuba diver there are pictures of him looking a little tan but not much. One thing no one can ever say about the members of maiden is that they're not hard worker's!

[@AllisterCooper2008]

Amen to that! I mean, I know he got married in Hawaii in - I think - 1984. Good for him! And in the early days of Maiden, he got the most fan mail :). Maiden weren't known to be hedonistic playboys; Murray once said that he likes to 'retire early after each show and go to bed with a good book.' Plus, I've always liked movies shot in Hawaii, most notably Blue Crush :)!

[@HollowDesert]

annoying commenter I wouldn't mind living in Hawaii but I wouldn't choose it. Certainly better than St.Louis where I live. Based on how it looks I would like to live in Austria. Beautiful mountains, weather seems nice. I like experiencing changes in seasons and the tropics don't really provide that. I'd like to travel the world some day if I can afford the cost and time, and I don't want to live in the US forever.

I think it's a great pity when bands like this say they'll never play the early stuff again. Those first four albums made the band massive, and they're not likely to put out anything better. They owe it to the fans to play that stuff.

[@michaelangeloh.5383]

They still did, however... On this last "Legacy of the Beast" tour... - But perhaps not some of the more obscure songs.
