      @@elenka.svaliva2 Actually no, I can forward multiple interviews with vocalists, and other band members through his career. There is one with Dio, where Donnie made it an absolute rule with any band he played with to NEVER treat their fans less than priority. The reason was he told a story with his time with RB and rainbow that he promised himself to never treat fans the same way. If you dare you're out. Judge for yourself. There are multiple examples from many, many artists that called him cruel.

    I remember that Deep Purple was frowned upon by fans of ‘progressive’ music. When Machine Head was released in 1972 it got a rather bad review in our local newspaper, De Gooi- en Eemlander. But fifty years later this album stands out as one of the foundations of hard rock with all its awe inspiring guitar playing by mr. Blackmore. Highway Star, Smoke on the Water, Lazy, Space Truckin’, wow!

    • @TheAnimeist
