Former IRON MAIDEN Drummer CLIVE BURR Speaks

June 24, 2006

MaidenNorway.com recently conducted an interview with former IRON MAIDEN drummer Clive Burr. An excerpt from the chat follows:

MaidenNorway: And back in the days, Paul [Di'Anno] said that you and Dave Murray and him were like tight and best friends.

Clive Burr: "We were. We were best friends. [remembering]"

MaidenNorway: Yeah, and Steve [Harris] was a bit outside, it was you three and [the other guys].

Clive Burr: "Yeah."

MaidenNorway: What about Dennis?

Clive Burr: "Dennis was cool, you know, he was OK as well."

MaidenNorway: 'Cause Paul Di'Anno didn’t have very much positive things to say about Dennis, but you like him. He's a nice bloke right?

Clive Burr: "Definitely. [smiles]"

MaidenNorway: How about any other MAIDEN members, you have any contact with the guys?

Clive Burr: "Yeah I do, hmmm, Adrian mainly."

MaidenNorway: On the phone or e-mail or something?

Clive Burr: "No, he comes around to my place."

MaidenNorway: That's nice.

Clive Burr: "And, you know, I have, long talks with him. He's a real nice guy."

MaidenNorway: But like Blaze Bailey, do you know him?

Clive Burr: "No."

MaidenNorway: What did you think when he replaced Bruce Dickinson? You think it was the right choice for IRON MAIDEN?

Clive Burr: "No."

MaidenNorway: You didn't like him as a singer in MAIDEN?

Clive Burr: "No. [laughs]"
