Clive was the former drummer for Iron Maiden. He played drums for Maiden from 1979 to 1982. He got diagnosed with MS and has been doing it tough health wise of late. Maiden would put on football games and charity concerts to raise money for his care. Even though he left the band in 1982 he's always seemed a part of it. He's always come across as a really nice guy and was a good drummer that could handle anything and it's he's beat that drives Run to the Hills. The beat was unusual at the time for a metal song.

Re: RIP Clive Burr
i feel sorry for anyone with MS, it's a prick of a disease. If memory serves me right Bengatta ran into one of the old lead singers from Maiden who now lives up his way.
