Paul Mario Day was the original lead vocalist of Iron Maiden from 1975-1976. He later formed a band called More that played at the Donington Monsters of Rock Festival in 1981. He was lead singer of Wildfire in 1983-1984. He recorded a live album at the Marquee Club in London as lead singer of The Sweet in 1986.

On Iron Maiden's Early Days DVD it was mentioned that Day was sacked because he didn't have enough stage-charisma in spite that he had a clear and vibrant singing voice. He was replaced by the controversial show-man Dennis Wilcock Paul Day now lives in Australia (since 1986), he sings with a band in Newcastle, Australia called "Gringos", He is still regarded as a dynamic singer and is often approached by "Sweet" fans who recognise him when from he toured with the Sweet in 1985, 1986 and 1988.
