Blaze Bayley

I was recently introduced to Blaze Bayley. Now, for all of you who don't know who he is, go find out who Iron Maiden are, go buy all their CDs (it's a must have, if you want to call your CD collection a good one) and amongst those you should be able to find a couple of albums of theirs that were done with yours truely - Blaze Bayley.

My oppinion has always been that Iron Maiden's music was made for the vocals of Bruce Dickinson and that his vocals were made for their music (although I do like some of his solo work) and I have come to see that many people agree with that oppinion. As a result, Blaze Bayley, singing old Iron Maiden songs while Bruce was away, didn't seem to be very welcome amongs Iron Maiden fans (alhtough I do agree that the songs written by Iron Maiden, while Blaze was with them, suit his vocals very well).

So, as I was saying, a friend of mine recently reintroduced me to Blaze and his solo stuff. And since this is my blog and I use it to write whatever it is I feel like writing, I want to use this fine opportunity to say that I love his solo work quite much.

P.S. : Youtube is amazing.

Cheers!
