Το λέει ανοιχτά όλη του τη ζωή ο Harris ότι είναι βαθειά επηρεασμένος
“I think if anyone wants to understand Maiden’s early thing, in particular the harmony guitars, all they have to do is listen to Wishbone Ash’s ‘Argus’ album,” Harris told ‘Guitar World’ in 2011. “Thin Lizzy too, but not as much,” he affirmed. Some fans have noticed a similarity between the opening notes of “Throw Down the Sword” and the ‘Dance of Death’ track “No More Lies,” but it isn’t as egregious as the parts lifted straight from Beckett on “The Nomad” and “Hallowed Be Thy Name.”
