Former IRON MAIDEN Guitarist DENNIS STRATTON Looks Back On Quitting The Band In 1980 - "Me And ROD SMALLWOOD Never Saw Eye-To-Eye Much"

In a new interview with Finland's Chaoszine, former Iron Maiden guitarist Dennis Stratton reflected on his time with the band - which he recalls fondly - and the reason for his departure.

Stratton on his departure:

"That was a joint decision. Me and Rod (Smallwood / manager) never saw eye-to-eye much. I used to travel a lot with a crew because they were funny: Loopy, Dave Lights, and Pete, my guitar tech. They were fun, you need your bit of space, and Rod didn't like the idea of me traveling with a crew. He didn't really like the idea of me having a life outside the band. It was no problem with the music, no problem with the band. There was no problem with the job I was doing with the band. It's just that there were different thoughts about, 'Well, you should be with the band all the time...' and I'll say, 'Why? I don't want to be with the band all the time. Not that I don't like 'em, but I want a bit of freedom.' It got a bit silly after that. And also, he started moaning about the music I listened to. I think you should listen to anything you want, really. So anyway, I wasn't arguing anymore. It was just a mutual decision."

Stratton was with Iron Maiden from December 1979 to October 1980. He is cited as the main reason the band's self-titled debut - released in 1980 - became a success, and is widely considered to be a major influence on the band's sound.

Tracklist:

"Prowler"
"Sanctuary"
"Remember Tomorrow"
"Running Free"
"Phantom Of The Opera"
"Transylvania"
"Strange World"
"Charlotte The Harlot"
"Iron Maiden"

Бухать с рабочими - последнее дело в любом бизнесе.

Я читал минимум две биографии Мэйден и там везде указан совершенно другой повод его увольнения . И кто это у нас тогда брешет ?

antoner

olly71, И что там было написано?Я тоже читал,он якобы тяготел к другой музыке,ну не был металистом короче

antoner, скорее всего имеется в виду история с продакшеном "Women in Uniform", который был сделан с помощью Стрэттона "слишком коммерческим", но это не суть важно, поскольку к нему был миллион претензий и до того - в частности, вышеописанное в новости)

antoner, Именно так . Ему совершенно не нравилась музыка которую играли мэйден ему было в тягость её играть он не кайфовал от неё ни с кем не дружил в группе и был в группе тупо только из за денег . На второй альбом он пытался всунуть свою музыку которая была написана в совершенно другом стиле и очень обиделся когда её отклонили и забил приходить на репетиции . И тут на горизонте появился старый корешь Муррея Адриан Смит которого пригласили просто побрынчать и уже через пол часа все поняли что он их новый гитарист.

Стрэттон хороший гитарист, но не более. Великие альбомы были с пришедшим ему на смену Смитом. Именно он и Брюс, при некотором участии Хари (ха-ха!), смогли записать пару-тройку, которые вошли во все антологии.
