[edit] To sack or not to sack

On the subject of Dave Murray leaving the band back in the 70s, it is very often said that Wilcox put some pressure on Steve Harris (bassist) so that he'd "sack" Murray because of jealousy. It seems Murray had a girlfriend (good-lookin' or not, that I don't know) and that was not something Wilcox appreciated since he didn't have one. I think I heard this in the DVD-Documentary the band's released some time ago ("Early days", I think it's called), so maybe some sort of explanation for Murray suddenly leaving the band for such a short period of time should be given (I'm just laying the facts there, in case they can be considered interesting)(Thought you might appreciate the details, that's all)

By the way, wasn't it Dennis WILCOX instead of WILCOCK?

[edit] moonface

I love Dave the moonface, he's the ultimate heavy metal legend

Moonface is great!

anyone know where this nickname originated from? is it because he is always smiling?

No, it's because he has a big, round face. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.217.28.88 (talk) 05:00, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Better Picture

I don't know about you guys, but I think the picture of Dave Murray in this article is pretty sub-par in quality. I think that there should be a better picture to display Dave. Whiffle Ball Tony (talk) 23:53, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
