ADRIAN SMITH Talks Return To IRON MAIDEN In 1999 - "I Had The Song 'Wicker Man' And Away We Went; We Just Never Looked Back"

Iron Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith recently guested on the Talk Is Jericho podcast, hosted by Fozzy frontman Chris Jericho. Smith talks Maiden live shows from the props to the set list, shares the songs he enjoys playing most, the ones that are a bit challenging, and how Maiden adapted the music to fit their three-guitar approach when he and Bruce Dickinson rejoined the band in 1999. Smith also recounts the circumstances that brought both he and Dickinson back to Iron Maiden, the band’s reaction to Dickinson's cancer scare, and what happened when Johnny Cash turned up at an Iron Maiden soundcheck.

Smith on his return to Iron Maiden:

"Bruce approached me in the mid-'90s. He'd written some songs for his first album; it wasn't his first solo album, but around the Accident Of Birth at the time. So, I really liked what they were doing, and I just contributed a few songs and it went off from there for the next three-four-five years. Then they wanted Bruce to come back. Blaze (Bayley) was fired from the band, I was playing with Bruce, so there was something in the air about me coming back, and I thought 'Maybe I'll just do one tour or come home after set.'

If you would have asked me 10 years before, I'd say 'No, I would probably never do it....' but things change. As you get older, you get wiser. I thought it might be nice just to round it off. Again, Steve (Harris / bass) does come off with some wacky ideas that first you think are not going to work. So he suggested to the guys, 'Why don't we have three guitars?' I joined up and we went up to Portugal to write some songs, and I had the song 'Wicker Man', and so I started playing that, and away we went. And then we just never looked back, really."

Ну, если бы взяли в Def Leppard, то конечно же отказался бы.
А вообще ему памятник за одну только "Stranger in a strange land" нужно ставить при жизни.

father

Нефигово так стартанул, вернулся в группу и сразу принёс Wicker Man:)
Мощнейшая песня, одна из лучших.

Rutger

А не врёт? Слышал, Брюс поставил условие - возвращаюсь вместе со Смитом, и ниипет.

andrey_paranoid

Rutger, так он и говорит, что IM изначально позвали обратно Дикинсона, а он "висел в воздухе".

Corpsegrinder04

А я Шмиту за Wasted Years памятник при жизни оформил бы.

Не очень понял про "если бы меня спросили на десять лет раньше, то я бы точно ответил отказом,".
На 10 лет раньше, от 2000-го, он из группы как раз и ушел.

20 фев 2020

Hellg

Corpsegrinder04, да! Wasted Years любимая композиция у них. Да и сам альбом "Somewhere in Time" даже на виниле есть.

Rus

Flaming , видимо , если бы его позвали в первые пару лет после его ухода, он бы не вернулся, но 10 лет это достаточное время на переосмысление.

20 фев 2020

Flaming

Ну, если только так объяснить. Хотя, может он думает, что ушел еще в 85-м. Или Брейв писался в 2010-м)

Никогда не понимал ни Адриана ни Яника, вот Дайв Мюррей всегда был основной гитарной силой у Мэйденов. Все рифы за ним были, и соляки огонь.

21 фев 2020

decided

И да, у Брюса например, Адриан тоже был чисто для концертов, так как весь материал делал Рой Z. Короче Адриан вовремя повзрослел, и решил вернуться, иначе бы кончил как бывший басист металлики))

>> "у Брюса например, Адриан тоже был чисто для концертов, так как весь материал делал Рой Z."

Неправда.

>> "Дайв Мюррей всегда был основной гитарной силой у Мэйденов. Все рифы за ним были"

Ещё большая неправда, чем пункт 1.
