Clive was a big part of the raw energy of the first 3 Maiden albums. Even though I was born well after he left the band, I have fond memories of listening to Murders in the Rue Morgue and Killers (my two favorites of the Di'Anno era) as an 11 year old and thinking "Where has this been all my life?" That album, along with Beast, were a big part of me getting into Metal. He really didn't deserve to go like this. RIP
