Lifelong Maiden fan here and I suppose like a lot of us, I wasn't a fan of his voice but he did sing on some classics on those 2 albums that still feature in the Set List today ...

Running Free
Phantom of the Opera
Iron Maiden

RIP...

True, and Phantom of the Opera is one of Maiden’s most iconic songs

RIP - I liked his voice on the first 2 albums.

His voice at the end wasn't great though. Look for recent footage of him on YouTube - he sounds like Vic Reeve's Pub Singer.
If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.
