OT: Proof that I am an insightful music fan as well
Raja, The Great
voice and style of singing was a mix of Ian Gillan (of Deep Purple)
and Peter Hammill (Van der Graaf Generator).
See, what a genius I am...

- Let's talk a bit about your influences. I think, you were influenced
mostly by Gillan and Dio, or were there others?
- A guy called Arthur Brown, who did the song "Fire" from the late
Sixties, was a big influence of mine. Peter Hammill from a band called
VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR. And also Ian Anderson from JETHRO TULL,
particularly, his lyrics. Very different influences. As of Gillan, in
the early days it was very much so, but it changed a little bit when
I've been with MAIDEN, it became much more kind of operatic than the
Gillan thing.

Hey no need to tell us. We of course knew already that you're a genius.
