Paul Samson (born Paul Sanson, June 4, 1953, died August 9, 2002) was a guitarist closely associated with the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal. After a period in several obscure bands, Samson formed his own eponymous outfit, Samson, in 1978, consisting of Chris Aylmer on bass, and Clive Burr on drums. Burr left, and eventually joined Iron Maiden, and was replaced by the controversial Thunderstick, who wore a gimp mask on stage.
