Harris is just one of those bassists that you can laugh at when he pretends to shoot you with his bass from the stage. He is also the only original member of Iron Maiden who has been there through them all up to the last: Brave New World. His time in the band gave Harris a lot of say as to how a song should be done. For example: in Number of the Beast, Harris made Bruce Dickenson go through three hours of that 23 second introduction to get it just right. Also, Steve Harris never tried to come off as a great bass player, he just made maiden a fun metal band \m/ (><) \m/
Steve Harris is a kick ass bass player, penned the majority of the Iron Maiden tracks and is one of the most influential musicians of all time. I love the guy!

I think he was great back then because the bass was clear and upfront, unlike most other bands where the guitar overpowered everything. So you could hear the bass, and respect the band for having it loud, and just accept that the bassist must be good, rather than the production just making it a bit more upfront. If that makes sense.
I just like it how he gallops, best way to describe his basslines. Really fits the music.
But yeah, I guess it is nothing spectacular.

Nowadays the Steve's is not spectacular than years earlier , just because the new generation of bassist took the Steve's techniques and develop more and more....
you don't want to compare Steve Harris with John Myung or Steve DiGiorgio?

No point since Steve has nothing to prove.
However, if he could get rid of Janick Gers then he would move up a notch in my estimation.
