Dennis Stratton is really underrated guitar player. And part of Iron Maiden history that will never be forgotten.
Yeah yeah everyone is forgotten eventually
No he never wanna be a part of Iron maiden
What about his singing? He did a pretty good job here!
@@eamonahern7495 agreed!
@@aaronhockey8803 You dumbass kid,
Who played guitar on the first self titled album then?
That is world record in bass height.
Prove it
Former record holder was Phil Lynott and he made his record in 1983 on Thunder and Lightning tour.
@@pahvilaatikko9587 That's all well and good but can you prove that this guy broke the world record?
@@Your2TiminEx Yes
You've never seen Level 42.
i think the bassist needs to hold his bass higher
😂
yep, straight in the face would be better
Lmao
Real rocker
He's no Steve Harris that's for sure lol
The world's a much cooler place now with heavy metal granddads in it.
I love old man power!
We should all stay young.
The guy playing Murray's parts did a great job. And I had no idea Dennis could sing so well. I enjoyed this.
He can sing! Check out the stuff he did with Paul, The Real Iron Men, I think they called it.
Danny DeVito
Funny thing is Stratton made Phantom what it is. He recording a ton of harmony backing tracks and then Ron SMALL WOOD said it sounded too much like Queen. wtf. Dennis Stratton is core Iron Maiden
The Danny devito guy is actually dave Edwards. Him and Dennis have been playing together since the late sixties early seventies .i used to watch these guys smash it every Sunday night at the bridge house pub Canning Town . They are called RDB. Which means Remus Down Boulevard. Check out their other videos on tube top blokes
Martin Johnson on drums legend in he's own making
I’ve watched this performance probably twenty times over the last couple of years and am still totally blown away by it.. Dennis sounds phenomenal doing the vocals.. His playing has always been top notch.. Dave Edwards can flat out jam. He plays Dave Murray’s part as well as Murray does and that’s a fact. Dennis got a raw deal back in the day.. the way he was sacked and all by Maiden. He was a HUGE part of that first album, which remains my favorite to this day. I sure hope if and when Iron Maiden decides to pack it in, they invite Dennis to be a part of the celebration. He was instrumental in helping the band form their signature sound. He deserves to be recognized, respected, and remembered for his vital contributions.
Sound like something Dennis Stratton would say
Thats a bit much bro
But yeah he was pretty important to the sound of that first album, wish they wouldve kept him a bit longer for killers,
Wow I was not expecting to hear such great vocals from Stratton. Great guitar playing, even better singing.
Saw Mr Stratton with Maiden in 1980 opening for Kiss. Changed my live.
So did I.. it was amazing.
That would have been an awesome concert! Lucky you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@keyringer I went there as a Kiss fan and came home being a Metalhead! Real Magic! =D
@@wahnfriedvonmannteufel1574 That's really cool!!!!!!!
@@wahnfriedvonmannteufel1574 I love both bands!
Stratton sounds closer to Dianno than Dianno does nowadays. Kick ass!
he wrote the song what do you expect lol
HellWarz Newz huh? Steve Harris wrote it.
Exactly, what i thought. Di'anno couldn't keep his voice sadly & unfortunately.
doublestrokeroll steve harris wrote the lyrics not the guitar riffs ya ignorant fuck
A little unclear and quieter. Maybe it's the PA.
One of the best versions of ‘Phantom’ I’ve ever heard
Yeah, totally agree with you.🤩🙌
This video made me track down Dennis and Dave and go to Romford in the middle of the pandemic, to sit in a covered car park and hear them play. It was the only gig of 2020 , they played Phantom of the Opera and it was just amazing after having been locked up at home for so long.
I am so glad and honored to see Maiden in the early eighties at the Long Beach Arena, I was already drumming when I first saw Clive Burr, but when I first saw him perform I was taken back by his energy, R.I.P Clive Burr 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Well I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't have high hopes for that but I've been proved massively wrong! Very good indeed!
That's what I thought too. :)
Same here, thought it was just gonna be some poor pub rock version......
But holy shit batman they fkin rocked the hell outta that BIG TIME!!!
Dennis Stratton wouldn't go out and do it if it was going to be crap..
Better than some maiden versions
You can hear his sound which is missing when Maiden plays it now. I would have never picked up on that but as soon as he played I heard "it". I love hearing Phantom at the shows and sounds amazing, one of my favorites. But hearing Dennis play it here was a treat, thanks!
I agree. He has the exact tone that is on Iron Maiden.
Dennis was and will always be there best guitarist. Plain and fucking simple. He blows the doors off Adrian and Dave!
Christopher Pooler
Hahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaa alright mate, I also love bit of nostalgia but Dave and Adrian are where they are for a reason. Take nothing away from Dennis, who I know to be a lovely lovely guy and a talented guitarist.
@@christopherpooler5398 Let's not say things we can't take back.
@@irondarwin2483 Too late...
Stratton's solo at 7:49 simply magic
I absolutely love this, raw how it should be, amazing!!!
The early Maiden stuff is absolutely killer
I would have loved to be at this show! Drinking beers and seeing some musicians who you can tell are having a blast.
That was amazing. Listened to a lot of old maiden, bootlegs of live shows, etc and you guys nailed it man. Just wow
Dennis really nails his own solo, even better than the original album version.
Wouldn't it be great to see Maiden one more time to perform a few songs with Stratton and Di'Anno.
Di'anno can't sing anymore though
They didn't have the wheelchair ramps that night
9:27 loved this drum fill, guitar work, and vocal ending
Came for a laugh but ended up in awe.... great to hear Stratton, distinctive siund and a great voice!!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Good music doesn‘t need big PAs and huge stages. Just dedication and musicianship 👍
Respect, I don't think I've ever heard Maiden play this song that good.
hahaha
Wow!! So good. The energy that you guys have…and the voice: spot on! Congrats
This was very good. If I went to a club, and these guys played old Maiden songs for an hour, that would be a brilliant night.
The older a bassist gets the higher his guitar goes.
Keith Bell 😂😂😂
That thing is Einswistle high
The bass is at normal height the guy is shrinking. By 2041 the bass will appear to be floating in mid air.
He has the “slapping the bass” thing going on.🤘🏼
Your never too old to Rock N Roll!! Right on dudes👍
Last year, during the pandemic, before the second lockdown, me and my friend went all the way to Essex to see Dennis and Dave play in a pub car park, it was the only gig of 2020 , but it was excellent to hear live music again and amazing to hear Phantom of the Opera live 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Saw Dennis play this recently at The Crown in Romford, he's an amazing guitar player.
Singing and playing phantom of the opera at the same time !
Dennis + Adrian is my fantasy duo :D
Üstadim, yorumunu cok begendim,ama yine de murray-smith ikilisinden yanayim:) cok yasa MAIDEN
@@okandindas6987 hepsinin ayrı bir havası var ama arkadaş denenmemiş olana ilgi duymuş. açıkçası bende dinlemek isterdim dennis ve adrian ı.
bu arada. maiden de en fazla hakkı yenmiş iki insandan biri dennis diğeri burr dür.
ilk albüm öncesi murray kankası adrian ı gruba davet eder ama adrian kendi grubuyla "yoğun" olduğu için red cevabı verir. dennis i bulurlar gruba. ilk albüm çıkar konserler verilir tabir i caizse grup infilak eder. dave in kankası "müsait" olur dennis i resmen kovarlar.
maiden da 1980 senesi içerisinde bu global ikon olmuş grubun ilk ve bence en epik albümlerini ve en güzel zamanlarını yaşayıp aynı senenin sonunda kovulur. ve görünen o ki kadrolaşma gibi bir durum da vardır. ve bunun kurbanı olmuştur.
aynısı steve in paul e yol vermesiyle eski grubundaki vokalisti maiden a çağırıp 1 sene sonra çağırdığı kankasının da onayıyla gönderilecek burr ün de başına gelecektir. hem de babasının ölümünün hemen üstüne.
Why ? Dave and Dennis were ace .Dave and Adrian for the long haul
This is amazing. Plain and simple. What a great version. Stratton still rocks like a boss and the rest of these musicians killed it aswell. Damn!!
I enjoyed this, Stratton rocks!
Stratton has a great voice!
The bass player plays it as a mariachi guitar player! xD
It's the entire opposite of Steve Harris lol
Violin
lol
He's good though.
He's Epic!
That was awesome thank you
I love this version of that wonderfull song.
dennis still rocks
Mike Litoris He can sing too.
"Only the good die young", and you live forever cause you all got that immortal soul of good rock !qué berraquera! .. Thank you
I didn't realize Dennis had a good voice. Voice is vicious with this one!
Didn’t know Ian McShane played in a maiden cover band,props to him.
With Danny Devito on rhythm guitar
Only ran into this now and thoroughly enjoyed it! Rock on Mr. Stratton and company!!!!
AWESOME !!!! LOVE IT !!! Good Job !!!! Guy's (Houston Tx) Thanks...
Amazing, they absolutely killed it!!
This is what seasoned professional musicians sound like!
🤘😆🤘
Seasoned old piss heads
dennis stratton rips! now i can tell who does what in the original.he's got a distinct style!
heh it's always been dave murrey and "who/what was that?"
some solos were Dave Murray , Some solos were Dennis Stratton, they play differently, and from this upload, you can see/hear Dennis Stratton eastern/baroque style.
When you get to the gig and realize you packed the camera strap instead of your bass strap.
Haha, Laurie gets so much stick for holding his bass the way his does, but your cheeky comment actually made me 'laugh out loud' :-)
@@punkrocksal He is damn good, and yeah, play any way your comfortable, who cares what others think and all that. it just looks like a country and western player sitting in with a metal band. Great performance by the way! My favorite maiden song, Loved it👍🎸
Any minute now the roof is coming off that joint! Superb work gentlemen
dennis sounds amazing here
One of greatest Maiden song
🤘🏻
Wow, absolutely fantastic. 👍👍 ya see, that's rock n roll. PERFECT!!
Blimey - they absolutely killed it, and Stratton is a guitar beast!!
Bernie Marsden too
Dennis Stratton the great.
To my surprise this is close to the essense of the original version. Pretty damn good.
WOW that was so totally awesome I watched it twice, added to favourites and shared on Twitter, brings back fond memories of sawdust on the floor and drinking too much in a certain well known pub.
Thank you for sharing - they are great entertainers and awesome musicians too :-)
Really cool to see Stratton performing.Really love Iron Maiden first album!
This is amazing,great job fellas,you all still got it
Good to see Dennis playing. I am a huge fan of the first Maiden album.
A group of great players having a great time! That's a pretty cool stage too!
Stratton has a better voice than the the modern days Di'Anno !!
My favorite Maiden cover. Great job guys!
ROCKERS AVIN FUN. Saw Maiden with Dennis and his 3 Muskateers white shirt at Reading. Memories. Feel the power and listen to classy musicians, in their prime, play and enjoy it at the same time. CLASSIC. Also, while watching this, I just had a vision of Clive on drums. CLIVE BURR. YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN.
Still got it ! great to see him performing , love it !
dennis have an awesome voice too
Metal is not a lifestyle it’s a way of life. There is no age limit, there is no stigma, it’s metal...... we live, love and breathe it......... Yannick, Dave and Adrian along with the rest of the crew would have been in the front row rocking it out as I was in CZcams in Australia. Love the performance and keep it up 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👊👊👊
Nice! Glad he is still having fun and playing intimate shows.
dennis and dave are still great used to see RDB back in the 70s at the Bridge House canning town.fantastic band
Loads of fun ,!! Looks like a good gig
Very good play and great vocal. The vocalist sings very good while playing guitar, and that's not easy to do in such a song like this.
Well, he was in the band when Harris wrote this. He should know the song pretty good.
His singing at precisely 9:16 is awesome
That was SO WOW!!! Loved it!!!
Amazing performance!!!
That was great!
HOLY SHIT !!! AWESOME...
Great job. You just reignited my head banging mode.
I'll send the band my Dr. & chiropractor bills🤟
That made me chuckle
.. And that's just GREAT!!! thanks for all those years!
Amazing!!!!
Absolutely brilliant! Well done lads!
damn it Dennis very well done to you and the lads superb, extremely talented and professional
I used to watch these guys play every Friday in the Albert in plaistow…great times.
Hope you all realize that this is how the mighty Maiden musicians would look like if they haven’t made it big. Gyms and hairpieces are needed now to maintain the illusion of rockstars.
totally agree
Totally agree, to be a member of a professional band like maiden, you not only have to play great, you need to look great too! I think that it's a marketing thing
This is fricken Awesome !!! So glad i found this ,, Rock On GENTS !!
Pleasantly surprised! Nice job!!! \m/
Damn it Mr. Sratton you are simply amazing my friend.
What a great job ....
That bass player should balance it on top of a step ladder, get even closer then
🤣🤣
Vocals sound great along with the rest. Wasn't expecting the vocals to hold but pleasant suprise👍
Great Vocals and Harmony here. ..... Cool stuff ! !
Dennis has an incredible voice and he plays the guitar at the same time a real talent for sure (he was the best guitarist in Iron Maiden). The band was on fire too. Cheers.
Dave Murray was far superior than him.
They sound great 👍
Dennis forgot to dress up in his white shirt with red leather pants, lol
Riff Raff dont get me started on his hair
Riff Raff _ pants? you mean trousers / jeans. Or are you American?
He donated that outfit to Bruce
Excellent - god bless Dennis Stratton, the original Iron Man - I remember Gary Bushell who wrote the "running free" biography book, used to joking a lot with Dennis' age, because he was the oldest on the band at the time.
Great Dennis. Great guitarist, and he sings how Paul Di Anno should sing today. Love him 🤘
not bad, with good harmonies, guitar playing, and fun all round. Up the Irons
Goddamnit, this was truly epic!
btw, GREAT line up, sounds REALLY GOOD ! Great job !
Love this !
such a great performance.. !!!!
Sounds great. Awesome vocals!
