    When is steve harris showing his "incredible" speed?

    Steve Harris has Influenced EVERYONE...face it he is up there right at the top and likely always will be. His Legacy is massive and will still be there long after we are all gone. Speed Is nothing short of an embellishment tool that should only enhance good song writing, It took me years to...
