Adrian was and is again , a catalyst in Maiden. He takes them somewhere else in musically and song writing wise. He isn't a Metal guitarist per se, or a fast player/shredder. He is a more measured and melodic player. Bruce sums him up on the Flight 666 documentary when he says "Adrian just picks notes out of the air and nobody knows how he does it, because only Adrian can do it." Maiden lost far more when Adrian left, than they ever did when Bruce left. This takes nothing away from Janick Gers, who is a fine guitar player and the 3 Amigos work so well together.

Always loved this album, I loved how it was raw and yet amazing..

Man if Adrian’s solos were just put in there this album would have been flawless. Adrian Smiths always been my favorite guitarist in Maiden and he’s in my top ten of all time. Just wish he would have at least been on this one.

In truth Martin Birch felt rather uncomfortable and uneasy recording with the mobile unit in Steve's barn. He obliged to Steve's wishes, but both he and Rod Smallwood were not happy with the decision. So was Dickinson. No Prayer is a great album, but the production indeed is much less good than the previous albums.

I don't think Steve is running Adrian down at all. Janick was used to being the sole Guitarist in White Spirit and Gillan so was used to doing solos. All Steve said was Adrian initially was more rhythm and harmony which in his book he talks about being a front man in Urchin he was happy doing. Joining Maiden he had to quickly adapt and play more solos which he did brillianty and as Steve said he was a great songwriter and backing singer. Hardly doing him down.

This interview always bothered me, where they're discussing Jannick vs. Adrian. I appreciate that Jannick was the new guitarist and they need to move on from Adrian, but Steve's comment that Jannick was more of a "natural lead player" hasn't aged well for me. While I hear Jannick's leads as somewhat on-the-edge and scrappy, Adrian's leads are all virtually perfect - memorable and singable. The perfect complement to Dave's on-the-edge bluesy rips.
