What Makes This Singer Great? Ian GIllan - Deep Purple
Ian Gillan's music was for me, truly the cornerstone of rock and roll.
His style was both legendary and innovative and he pioneered the use of low, growly vocals paired with super high range screams.
Originally influenced by Elvis Presley, Ian fronted multiple bands before eventually joining on with Deep Purple.
He enjoyed a lot of commercial success with the band before deciding to branch off on his own and do some solo projects and a stint with Black Sabbath.
Eventually he would rejoin Deep Purple for two more albums before leaving again in 1989. 4 years later he returned to the band and has remained the frontman ever since.
In addition to his music, Ian also took on the role of Jesus in the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar and his performance of "Gethsemane" is one of my favorites.
For today's video I'll be looking at a series of epic performances of some of his classics. I hope you enjoy it and please make sure to share what you thought made Ian great!

I think Ian Gillan was the best hard rock singer of his time..
He's great!
Definitely the best vocalist ever!
I think Ian Gillan is the best hard rock singer ever 🙂
Ian Gillan as Jesus in the original rock opera, IS the gold standard. It's a masterpiece.
The range in Ian Gillan's voice puts him up there as one of the greatest rock singers of all time. Top 3 to me.
Ian is awesome!
I agree totally
He is also extremely educated and philosophical. What’s crazy is he doesn’t take himself too seriously which makes him very humble in person.
Rock on! 👍
I love his voice 😍
I love that theatrical quality to Gillan's vocals. You can tell just how influential he was to the evolution of heavy metal music. I think he's a good singer to show people who may not "get" heavy metal music or think it's all senseless noise, because I'd consider him one of the founding fathers of the heavy metal sound and his skill is absolutely undeniable.
Well said, the Space Ace!
Ian Gillan is my favorite singer, period. (Plus he's HOT!). He can sing everything- of course, he's the best in classic rock, but, like you said, he's amazing in JCSS- not only the rock, but the ballads. He really gets the energy of the song across. Multifaceted, supremely talented, just exquisite. No one can compare.
When I first saw this video……his looks and voice I definitely noticed! Damn, talk about EAR-GASM! WHAT A SINGER!😎 The rest of the band is freakin’ AWESOME! All sooo talented!😎
Ian Gillan, the best vocal in all the world
👍Rock on!😀
Ian Gillan just gives me chills, probably my fav singer. When he was with Sabbath he was amazing.
NightShooter Web Development 👍
one of the greatest singers ever and most influencial. His high screams are still the best i have ever heard, his timbre is just plain beautiful and he has some really gnarly belty stuff too.
Alexander Kohlhepp 👍
I didn’t discover Ian until I was 22 years old and I’ll be 25 on Thursday but i got to see deep purple in 2018 and his vocals just blow me away
Awesome!
His performance in Jesus Christ superstar is his best. One of the greatest performances in rock history without question.
It's been 30 years now listening to Deep purple songs never tired of listening to them,even today they are electrifying, they are best in the world of Rock. Zakir
👍💜😀
Gillan sounds like warm butter and then becomes an operatic banshee. What passion!
Karen Nyere 👍
Mr. Gillian on Deep Purple’s “Made in Japan” outstanding performance.
Rock on, Stan!
My father once told me that My mom used to say, that when I was at her belly they played highway Star And I was inside her not even being born yet and kicking inside her of excitement... For Me Deep Purple is like My blood, My family. When i'm know that somebody likes deep purple I instantly develope a simpathy for that person. That is why I like You Ken. Even though You clearly prefer Coverdale than Ian Gillan, wich for me (let me tell you) is almost a blasphemy. But we Will forgive You. You are right, there is no other groove like smoke on the water...what a groove...
Haha. Rock on!
I took my wife who was about about 20 weeks pregnant to see Deep Purple live in 1999 in Melbourne. At that point she`d only felt 1 or 2 movements from my the unborn baby . My wife had never heard them before but my unborn daughter was kicking like crazy throughout the whole concert. Headbanging in the womb .
MATEO YO COINCIDO CONTIGO NADIE SE ACERCA TANTO AL ALMA DE UNO CUANDO CANTA, SE VUELVE PARTE DE LA SANGRE DE LOS QUE LO OYEN
He made a lot of rock fans believers and had a lot of control and almost operatic presence.
😀
Gillian is just one of those special guys. Incredible ability, lyricism, longevity, and harmonica abilities. To me, he was the first in a style that would go on to be called British heavy metal.
You missed his beautiful sensitivity and amazing vibrato Ken. He had it all in those days. Whisper to a scream and literally everything in between. What a gift his voice was.
Thank you.
His solo career was AWESOME too and the black Sabbath born again album and tour was epic
Absolutely, Joseph!
IAN GILLIAN NO SOLO ES EL MEJOR CANTANTE, MEJOR POR MUCHO DEL ROCK SINO QUE ES LA VOZ MAS AGRADABLE POTENTE SINCERA INTENSA, EL MEJOR DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS, NUNCA SERA IGUALADO
His Jesus Christ superstar 1970 album
I urge people who love music to listen to his voice and technique
Great!!
His voice is so entrancing definitely an inspiration of mine
Mine too!
Ian Gillan is amazing, not only with Deep Purple, his group Gillan was also great too, Mr. Universe, Vengeance, among other songs demonstrate how great of a singer he is.
I agree, Carlos!
You could tell he played drums early in his life, like so many Drummers who also sing he uses his voice like a percussion instrument. I'm also a big fan on songs like Black Night and Woman from Tokyo.
👍
I was just wondering that how he stays with the beat
I think there is one thing which is quite understated. IG simply is NOT and never was about screaming. I mean - it was one of his trademark, but the main quality of his voice was and still is beautiful tone of voice. You have to go before Purple and Jesus Christ Superstar and listen tracks done with Episode Six. Then go to When A Blind Man Cries…. and listen to more mellow stuff he has done with his voice. I just guess how many Purple fans heard If I Sing Softly or his live take of Sitting In A Dream (when he performed on Butterfly Ball show instead RJD). From later period - who heard Over & Over or If This Aint Blues from Hoochie Coochie Men album with Jon Lord - both are absolute vocal masterpieces from 2007....
Thank you.
So powerful so talented so into his words, he puts whole heart and soul into every word. Love Deep purple
Rock on! 👍😀🎤
Yes, Ian puts his whole heart and soul into every word he sings. He is the Best rock singer
My favourite Ian Gillan vocal is the original studio version of When A Blind Man Cries. Soulful, with impeccable technique and not a hint of falsetto anywhere. His versatility is often overlooked.
Thank you!
That note he hits in Child in Time: "AhhhHHHAHHHAHAHHAHAHHAHH" - goosebumps every time. I'm still waiting for the ricochet. Another great video! You're on fire lately.
Awesome!
Ian and Robert Plant are my 2 favorite male singers of all time! Hang on.., that Ricochet's comin' around real soon!
I think he is my all time favourite. Having said that, I didn’t really get him when I was very young, I had to grow up to really appreciate him...
Ddrsdd D 👍
Ian Gillan is freaking awesome!!
Sorry to be so nostalgic, but fact is fact brother. Absolutely Epic... Especially for us old enough to remember it all originally. Chills...
Thank You for acknowledging this legendary singer. As you mentioned, it really IS the cornerstone of Rock & Roll... 👍
💜😀
There is also awesome stuff from the Ian Gillan Band. One of my favorite albums is his solo album “One Eye to Morocco”. He is not only a great singer and performer, also a great musician.
I love how he can jump between the raspy and clean tones, just amazing (just think of his solo song "Clear Air Turbulence"). I tried to mimic him, needless to say I failed...
Me to
Best male rock singer all time
Rock on! 👍😀🎤
Growing up on Deep Purple, Ritchie was what started me playing electric guitar, and Gillan made me want to be a singer so bad...... nobody has ever really made the impression on vocals Gillan has.
Rock on! 👍😀🎤
IAN GILLAN IS THE BEST!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!
The greatest Singer of all times. He invented the vocal belting technique, called Genius by Pavarotti, did wonderful performances such like Fighting man, Black Sabbath (the song Worcester '83), no more cane on the brazos (live '90) and some hundreds more, and Is responsable of an innovative record like Clair air turbulence (an hard rock singer with a jazz rock band playing funky)...surely it's not just about Child in time or SOTW.
Rock on!
@@kentamplin If you can, please, listen to those performances if you haven't already done it. There are so many, but at least the ones pointed are a good start.
He also did a duet with Pavarotti of Nessa dorma.
He isn't anywhere close to be the greatest but he is astonishing
I believe Ian Gillan is the greatest rock singer of all time! The one thing he has that stands above the rest... and yes I love Dio, Mercury, Hughes, Coverdale and a lot more .... is his versatility! With that I mean, his was able to sing many different genres. From Jesus Christ Superstar to Born Again, Black Sabbath and anything in between. He absolutely had a go at everything. I can give you many examples but this comment would go on forever. There is prob one singer that can still sing the same now at the age of 68 than when he was young and that is Mr Glenn Hughes. However as far as tone, phrasing, timing, nuances, range, emotivity, versatility, Mr Ian Gillan takes the cake. He covered genres like, hardrock, rock and roll, blues, blues rock, metal, heavy metal, crooning (ala Bublé, Sinatra), jazz fusion, even had a go at opera. I prob missed a couple. Absolutely underrated singer. On top of that he is an amazing songwriter and lyricist. There you are. You can agree or not.
Ian was and is his own man with his own style and he just went for it every time. I saw him years ago in Denver and he was sick with a bad cold, turning away from the mic to cough and such, without complaining or so much as a comment. Remarkable. I was actually at the California Jam in '74 when Coverdale and Hughes were the new guys. As famous as that gig was and as good as the new guys were for Deep Purple, the crowd was really not into them as much without Ian Gillan. Ian Gillan took Deep Purple from being a band searching for a sound and identity to an international phenomenon. Without him, DP would have been (nearly) forgotten. I say "nearly" because of "Hush."
Ron Richerson 👍
Ian Gillan very rarely left anything in the dressing room, good night or bad a very honest performer . In his second purple period 1984 onwards I think he would have benefited from backing singers to help him breath after the difficult bits . He did a lot more singing 84 onwards , the shows were longer and the instrumental passages shorter. I think he has said he wasn't happy with his mid range until he reached his 50s.
Rock on!
IMHO, "Mitzi Dupree" and "Born Again" are real "pearls" that shows Ian Gillan real talent...
You know when you get a song stuck in your head….. that’s Deep Purple songs! 💯❤️
He is JUST LEGEND!
He is indeed, BEARSING!
Auckland New Zealand
Auckland,,,,,love his voice ,,,,,,,Ian Gillian
When you think of Ian Gillan, his epic screams come to mind of course. But he also had special timing and phrasing, certainly also a parts of his signature vocals.
Indeed!
My fav rock singer, a maestro, the best representative of hard rock as a singer.
One thing I really appreciate about Gillan, is his ability to sing lightly so well in full voice that sounds falsetto but it's not. He did that often in JCS, his version of Sitting in a Dream (Butterfly Ball), and especially in IGB and Gillan. He is my favorite rock singer. No one could have done Digital Bitch better, for example. I still beseech you to do a David Byron analysis. Cheers!
Thanks for the thoughts!
Thank you for this, Ken! Ian is my alltime favorite singer. Like you said in the video, he and the rest of Deep Purple are like the cornerstone of (hard) rock! And I love their ability to improvise too! Like you I miss this in todays music... Thanks once again!
Glad you enjoyed it!
These guys inspired me to pick up a guitar I still remember cracking the album when it first came out put it on my sears stereo and it blew me away Thank You so much Ken for posting you have inspired me to sing again I am up to 10 songs now and counting stay safe Brother :-)
My pleasure!
Of course, dear Ken, I tell you what I think about Ian Gillan: beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! And you, Ken, are very very pleasant! Thank you for existing!
Absolutely Ian Gillan is one of the greats
Absolutely, Gillian!
Gillans got some of his best vocal performance on his solo records, songs like Fighting man, Born to kill, M.A.D, On the rocks, Mr.Universe. Check out Gillan live with Black Sabbath, love his epic screams on Heaven and Hell and Black Sabbath.
Thanks for weighing in, Mattias!
To me, one of the best performances of his solo career is hands down If You Believe Me. : )
I have always loved Ian's voice. His vocals on Black Sabbath Born Again were pushed to the limit, to the point of almost being painful to hear at times. I think he had a somewhat nasal quality to his singing, especially the 80's and 90's, but it gave him identity and seemed to work well. His modern approach is more toned down, but he still maintains character and sounds quite distinguished.
Thanks, SCR1971!
I love his singing on Black Sabbath's Born Again album too.
👍💜😀
powerful and dramatic 🔥
Rock on! 👍
Ian is one of my biggest rock vocal role models! He will always be a legend. I did Child In Time a few years ago in the studio and have so much more respect for him after that. The song is more than a rock song, it's like rock opera or rock art! I'm also a huge Jesus Christ Superstar fan! Ian and Ted Neeley are the JC Superstar cannons all others measure to.
He's so great!
Just love to watch this stuff, it's the soundtrack to my childhood, I grew up with this stuff, Made In Japan is the greatest live album ever... And man, you had me laughing out loud when you did the Gillan scream at 5:25, looking like a cross eyed maniac. 🙂
My friend had the Perfect Strangers album in 84 and when I first heard Knocking at Your Back Door, The opening lyrics , "Sweet Lucy was a dancer But none of us would chance her" seems like a lyrical hook because 37 years later I'll just start singing it. I like the cover of Space Truckin' from the Tesla Reel to Reel album
Rock on! 👍😀🎤
I gotta say Ken it was Deep Purple that got me interested in good hard rock music, Thank you for another great video and analysis.👍☮️☮️☮️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy yes and thank you my friend 👍
Dale - they were my catalyst, too. 🤘
Lord, Glover, Paice and Blackmore are what really made him rock!! Powerhouse rhythm section to support his vocals. Ian was part of something remarkable. I’m sure Blackmore was a huge influence on most guitar players. I know Paice was one of mine on the kit. 40 years later and I still can’t keep up to his stamina. Sorry but I’ve mostly ignored a lot of vocals, I listen more to band behind them.😜
Rock on!
Ken you should give a listen to a couple of recent Deep Purple tracks such as All I Got Is You or Time for Bedlam. Ian Gillan's vocals are so smooth now.........it's a really cool listen to see how he has reinvented his style as he ages.
Rock on! 👍
All the time In The World(from Now What?!) and The Surprising(from Infinite) are two of my favourite purple songs.
The surprising is such a beautiful song !
Oh my gawd, yes! I was just telling someone in the comments to listen to the brand new track, _Throw My Bones._ It is so amazing! I'll link it here, too, just in case.
Throw My Bones (2020) - ruclips.net/video/QUW7PvvbbO4/видео.html
Birds of prey & on top of the world.
Ken Tamplin is like a living wellspring of the wisdom of modern music.
Haha! Thanks!
You can clearly hear (and I confirmed) the Little Richard influence, one of his biggest.
Rock on! 👍
Love “Child in Time”. I saw Deep Purple in 1972 after Ian left. Not the same. I also liked Uriah Heep.
Rock on!
Ian left in 1973. He left music. Two years. Like Eric Clapton. (1971-73)
Ian is a rock legend. I think he improved his vocal range and singing style during the 80's, you can hear on the albums Perfect Strangers and The House of Blue Light. He also recorded album Born Again with Black Sabbath
Rock on! 👍
He had his golden voice when he left deep purple the first time. I am sorry to say that somewhere between Igb (Ian Gillan band) and black Sabbath and before his return to purple, with the Perfect Strangers album, he must have injured his voice. He had lost his range in perfect strangers and he had a raspiness to his voice that he never had before. Good album, but to my ear he had lost that incredible range and tone that made him the best male singer I have ever heard.
A Big shout out from Santa Cruz, Ca.
Thank you Ken!! I Can't tell you How much I appreciate your time and presence. I truly look forward to each video you drop!
You are very welcome!
"He set this trend" - KT Absolutely, while many imitate those before them or their peers, Gillan imitates no one, a true original rock legend. His lyrics are funny as hell too. Listen to No One Came from Fireball, or Ted the Mechanic, great lyrics.
Angelo Torres 👍
Edgar winter ...
Gillan wanted to be edgar winter
No laughin in Heaven lirycs are pure amusement.
Any fule know that.
I'd been waiting a long time for a Ian Gillan video, thanks!
Your the best!
Hope you enjoyed it!
There's only few singer who does what he can do during his time.
Thank you Ken! Ian Gillian is one of my fav singers ever!!!
Why dont you make a video about David Byron too? For me a today underrated talent. Too much young people dont know this amazing singer.
Thank you!
I spent a lot of time trying to copy him live and did a fair impression and believe me it paled into insignificance against this tremendous vocalist and entertainer. His version of Gethsemene is phenomenal. In his earlier days he was an Elvis/Gene Vincent inspired rock N roller and pop singer
On a personal note I've had the odd brief backstage moment around Purple and have a high regard for Ian as a person..Never afraid to publicly admit he made mistakes in his professional and business life too. I thank him on behalf of Rock fans and music lovers generally for all he has brought to the scene
Thanks for the insight!
Gillan and Glover recorded an album called “Accidentally on purpose” They went after finishing a recording of a “Purple” album with a couple of instruments, writing songs and recording at the same time. The whole album is great! Best known is “Clouds and rain”
Adina Farkas 👍👍👍
This was GREAT friend! I totally enjoyed your take on Ian! 💯
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think he did use his midrange at times and those notes were actually great. Pity he didn't use them more often. He used them in No One Came, Fools, Mary Long.
Thanks for listening! Rock on!
I love your speaking voice, Ken.
#ENVIOUS
Much love and appreciation to you.
Thanks, golion1!
Hey look it's Keningham Rex Maximum Vocalus!!
Bro, my late brother Jim saw Gillan live years back in Toronto, and he said he could see Gillan going back stage from his perspective, and he was taking oxygen between songs (not between each song) Have you heard this ?
My vocal style (not sound) is very similar to this, and RJ Dio employed the same technique. I just love the atmosphere these great singers brought ti each and every last song!
You just don't see male vocalists who can bring that kind of power, the drama and ability to captivate every single bum warming every single seat on every song!
Even the best bands have songs which just fall flat, and a lot of the time it's on the vocalist, he has no vocal charisma (as opposed to physical, Elvis type charisma)
At the beginning of my career the biggest problem I had when I was transitioning from covers to originals was the band's inability to comprehend they had to write for the vocalist! Guitar players are the worst blockheads for this. They all want to be superheroes and it's speed, no discernible melody and volume.
I got so disgusted with this that I started bring Sabbath Dio and old Rainbow cassettes (yes folks, the horrifying truth is out I am an old sumbitch at fiddy seven) I had to make them put their effing guitars down, and if you ask me, guitar players look at their guitars as an extension of their tiny Joe Johnson...it's pure penis envy!
When you hear "metal" a lot of people think of speed, smoking finger boards and outrageous ear drum shattering volume.
But when forced to listen to the GODZILLAS of hard rock (told you I'm old!) such as Iomi, Blackamoor, Viv Campbell, Goldie, Slash etc look, Iomi created metal, sophisticated metal. These giants wrote for their vocalist they left riffs out of vocal parts and inserted them in and out and through the choruses when appropriate.
You can have the very best musicians and vocalist and your band can be complete crap, because singers cannot compete with amps on the 11 settings! Vocals are destroyed like that.
So singers, if you're dealing with blockheads suffering with penis envy find another band because they can replace broken string, they can get new guitars, they can swap pickups YOU HAVE ONE VOCAL CHORD AND ONCE IT'S DAMAGED IT'S OVER!
Love to get Ken's perspective. Take care brother!

Canadian manly lady's man & man about town
Thanks for the comment, Jack! Take care
Great singer, epic band!
👍😀
I know this was done a while ago but for Ian, "When a blind man cries" and for a short time with Purple Mark IV, you had along with Glenn and David, Tommy Bolin was adding vocals to Deep Purple and Tommy's solo albums. Thanks Ken
Je suis fan de Ian Gillan . C était mon adolescence. Il est tellement talentueux.
Rock on!
Love this video man! Ian Gillian is one of the greatest singers of all time. Would love to see you do a video on Rory Gallagher :D cheers!
Great suggestion!
Souped up Ford!! Lost at sea!! love Rory!!
Ian is my favorite rock singer. Fred from Queen and Robert plant are also two of the greatest singers and front men of Rock music. However, nobody can hit the hit notes like Ian Gillian
Love his singing

The best rock singer in so far....
Thanks for the visit! Rock on!
@@kentamplin it's my first time to see your channel, and it was facinating.
Ian Gillan was and is my fav rock singer since my high school time 'till now
Perfect Strangers was one of his greatest pieces of music. Hush also comes to mind.
Great tunes!
Purples first singer Rod Evans sang hush.
I have to agree with you he was when my favorite of all time and I saw deep purple in the early seventies with him and he was the best
Rock on!!
Grow up to this my older brother bought made in Japan double lp when that came out i was about 8 years old & loved it the second i heard Ian sing at 8 years of age his tone got me & of course his screams as you said no was doing that i had never heard that before & liked it but it's his tone my ears picked up on .I think peoples ears are all shaped different & we hear tones different & that's why we all like different sounds Ian ,Robert plant ,Ronnie Dio ,are my favorites & of course they have great technique but it's mainly there tone i like no matter what they are singing . You are never going to hear another Ian again or Rob or Ronnie they are & were unique .
👍
Any fan of Child in Time should listen to him sing Fighting Man from his Gillan solo record. It’s an unknown gem.
Your cover of "Highway Star" is and will always be, the best I've ever heard; utter fabulosity, Ken!
Thanks again!
Jon lord greatest rock keyboardist of all time, Ritchie blackmore great guitarist, Ian price great drummer, and of course Ian Gillan absolute legend.
Rock on! 👍
Ian Paice.
Ken your spot on. Don't listen to the haters. Musician singer 40 years. You taught me a lot. Yes' you can teach an ole dog new tricks. Cheers
И эти шедевры ведь он пел в самом начале своей карьеры, 👋👋👋Ему всего то было 25-27лет тогда. Гиллана можно слушать вечно, берёт за душу! Красавец❤
Ken, I'm from the Soviet Union,I don't know how familiar you are with the situation in our country in 1972, but I've listened to DOORS, WHO, ROLLING STONES, Deep Purple and more.
Yesterday I asked you to look at Diana Ankudinova, a 14-year-old girl.Sorry for the impertinence, but listen!Necessarily.
Thanks for the suggestion, Святогор Буслаев!
@@kentamplin Always happy to help a good person!
Love Deep Purple! Some of their stuff reminds me of the Guess Who...
Jeff Kazee 👍
Remember the 70s my brother an me were sitting in front of his record player in his child's room and listened to this number. We had the "Made in Japan" and couldn't believe what these guys were doing. My cousins came to my confirmation in Germany when I was 13, and we turned up the speaker full volume and listened to Deep Purple. No other band has changed our musical live in such a way than Purple. I wanted to play absolutely Organ in a band because of John Lord. And Ian Gillan inspired all of us. Also Ritchie Blackmore and Ian Paice. My mother was shocked when I had my first electric guitar with 14, cause the first thing I bought from confirmation money was a big amplifier and electric guitar. We started a band project in school and were stars at our school, cause we covered a lot of Purple, Stones, The Who and Beatles. This were really good times. Hot girls and a lot of fun. And I think, we have had a lot of luck, that we were allowed to see such big bands in the 70s. Young people today cannot imagine that all these big bands (Led Zeppelin, Boston, Kansas, Eagles, Manfred Man, Whitesnake a.s.o.) brought a completely new style into music. Thank you Ken for honoring Ian!
Great memory, Geronimo27!
I really love your version of child in time than the original.
Awesome! Thanks!
Please do a version of Smoke on the water.
What a legend
For sure!
Soy un hombre simple, veo ian gillan ,le doy like.
😀👍
I feel the best vocal performance of Child in Time, was Machine Head live 1972. It was recorded in Stockholm. Its a must hear if your a Gillan fan.
👍
