@misteradriansmith in an interview with @musicradarofficial comments on Steve's decision to replace Paul Di'Anno with a new singer

“Paul had a great voice, but he was very temperamental.If you're a singer, it's kind of a shaky ground,” Smith says. “You’re totally reliant on your body. You can't put a bit more distortion on your amp or use effects. You can’t compensate. It’s you out there and you’re very exposed. I understand that.”

As Smith recalls, Maiden’s heavy touring placed a heavy burden on Di’Anno.

“The schedule started to pile up,” he says, “and it was difficult for Paul, being the singer in a rock band playing five nights on the trot.”

Smith compares Di’Anno’s singing style to that of Judas Priest’s Rob Halford.

“Maiden had toured with Priest, and Paul did take a bit from Rob — a little bit of vibrato, the holding of the notes.

"Paul was getting into that, and it's a difficult thing. You have your natural voice you’re born with, and then you have to introduce this technique, and Paul was starting to do that, to really expand his range, as well as having the character in his voice.”

However, during the Killers tour in 1981 it became evident that Di’Anno was struggling.

Steve Harris notified the band’s manager Rod Smallwood that a change of singer was required.

Smith recalls: “It was Steve who said to Rod, ‘We can’t do this.’ Steve being very decisive, he knew exactly what he wanted to do long term.

“So okay, if that’s how you feel. It’s not very nice, but we got on with it.”

Harris also knew who he wanted as Di’Anno’s replacement — Bruce Dickinson, who was then fronting Samson, a band that had emerged alongside Maiden in the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal.

As Smith says: “Paul wasn’t as professional as Bruce. And Bruce could sing as high and as loud and as long as you wanted him to — like a machine.”

With Dickinson in the band, Maiden’s third album, The Number Of The Beast, was a huge hit in 1982.

@misteradriansmith comentou sobre @brucedickinsonhq em entrevista para @madeinmetal

"Quando Bruce entrou para o Iron Maiden em 82, a banda ensaiava e todos iam para as suas casas após os ensaios. Eu não era casado naquela época. Creio que Bruce também não era naquela época. Então, Bruce e eu saíamos para tomar umas cervejas, jogar sinuca e passar um tempo juntos. Ele tinha acabado de entrar, então eu estava tentando colocá-lo um pouco na banda. Eu sempre escrevi músicas, então eu costumava tocar riffs e outras coisas para ele, e começamos a escrever músicas juntos. Esse é o nosso relacionamento musical. Ele sempre vem até mim e me pergunta o que tenho, quando estamos gravando um disco”.

Adrian arrematou: “Ele é ótimo! É muito fácil escrever com ele. Ele cria algo muito rápido. Nós escrevemos músicas muito rápido. É assim que ele gosta de fazer. E ele é um ótimo cantor. Ele tem um grande alcance.Quando estou sozinho e reunindo ideias, consigo imaginá-lo cantando por cima do que estou tocando, então tem esse lado também. Bruce e eu nos damos muito bem e acho que escrevemos ótimas músicas juntos”.
