****I like Maiden too, but from a musical perspective, his solo stuff is much better written.****Not for me. Maiden has much more interesting writting and arranging. Much more melody and harmony. I like this.
****Most of the old Maiden tunes, and even some of them on the new album, are just basic I IV V I chord progressions.****
So is Accedent and Chemical, except Accedent and Chemical sans the cool arranging and guitar harmony.
****You learn that your first month in any music theory class.****
Oh, I see. You are trying to prove your supereority by being condesending by ASSUMING I know nothing about music therory. Get off your high horse, you don't need therory to have an ear. I have met SO MANY schooled musicians that couldn't play their way out of a paper bag!
****I still enjoy listening to it, but the second I start analyzing Iron Maiden, it gets boring.****
Try analyzing AOB and CW. Its pretty much cookie cutter formula metal with some ripping guitar solos (sloppy, but ripping all the same) compliments of Roy Z.
****Just my opinion, as everything else on this forum. ;-)
Robert****Just IMHO as well, but with out the attitude.
