A conversation with Steve Harris (Iron Maiden/ British Lion)

Steve Harris joins the show ahead of the Australian shows with British Lion and Iron Maiden. We explore whether British Lion allows for deeper lyrical exploration and comparisons to Iron Maiden. He shares thoughts on Bruce Dickinson’s Mandrake Project, the recent reunion with Paul Di’Anno, and how fan interactions have shaped his legacy. We also examine Iron Maiden’s themes concerning social and political climates, potential collaborations with contemporary artists, and the challenges metal faced in the mid-90s. Plus, there’s plenty of bass talk!
