Deep Purple never retired,on the contrary they always say that they will die on stage,because performing is the only thing they know and want to do. Don took the seat behind the keys when Jon was still alive 25 years ago.
Deep Purple mark II is one of my all time favorite bands for sure. I saw them 5 times on the Perfect Strangers tour and they were just incredible every time.
Like you said, sounds like the old Purple. I see other comments that they should hang it up, make room for the younger bands, etc. Why should they? They can still play with anyone. Paice is a legendary drummer, no ifs, ands, or buts. Ian Gillan, mid-70s, still sounds great. The song had a cool guitar riff and is a banger. Expecting the rest of the album to be good and professional.
This song is really fresh and my taste. Don's solo is masterpiece and Simon's sound remember me sometimes like Joe Satriani's sound and technics. In hope for the new album in july ❤
I like this. It's very familiar Deep Purple material, can't disappoint, at least I can't. Simon McBride fits very well in a band. Can't barely wait to hear the whole new album.
COOL GUYS , MY brother and me are looking forward to august 27 , in Montreal , Qc, Canada ! ( i personnaly like those 3 tracks , sort of realeased as good old singles ! thanks deep purple , solid stuff , cant wait to hear them live in a Super modern hall , built not only for hockey , but for all those great musical events ( last time i was there = ... shocks , 19 years ago for = PETER GABRIEL and STING !!! Fantastic acoustics !!!
Have a new band for you guys to check out. Band name is *Dea Matrona.* They're from Belfast, Ireland. They do have a Wikipedia page (Dea Matrona (band)). The duo just released their debut album called *"For Your Sins".* The link below is a live session video for their debut album (12 songs @ 36.18 video length). Song titles in the description. They do have official music videos for some songs. And audio only videos. They are not hard rock like The Warning. More like Fleetwood Mac. Their songs are short. Like 2½ to 3½ minutes in length. So doing 2 a video isn't a long video. Live From A Big Room (36.18) ruclips.net/video/S2QThRPfQEI/видео.html .
Yeah, they have not lost it at all. Unmistakably Deep Purple. That riff is all classic Purple. The keyboards sound exactly like Jon Lord's. And the guitar tone is a throwback as well. As a die hard Deep Purple fan of more than 4 decades its intriguing how The Warning's philosophy of its all about the song - a solo will be there only if the song requires it - has altered my appreciation of a classic rock song like this. Were 2 solos really necessary? TW getting nominated for a Grammy in 2025 looks difficult now with DP coming out with a new album.
That's the problem I have with these older bands. Steve Morse quits the band after a farewell tour. Only saying we're not retiring. Morse is now touring in a Dixie Dreggs band. Randy Bachman complains of a Guess Who touring band with original drummer. Then he proceeds to tour in a BTO band with just him, sitting on a chair, from the original band. Got Foreigner (one original member) touring releasing one studio since Mr. Moonlight from 1994. Kiss was on a 4 year farewell tour. Probably tour again in 25 or 26. Wish these old bands would hang it up so the younger bands like The Warning, Liliac, Motion Device, The Sixsters & Voice of Braceprot can run & bring back rock these older bands allowed it to disappear. Since they were touring on their older songs than newer material.
You are wrong. There was no farewell tour, after the 20th studio album, it’s was called the ‘long goodbye tour’, all very open ended, it was the press that called it ‘farewell’, DP never did. The fly in the ointment came when Covid hit and grounded the band for a couple of years, just like every other global touring band. Steve Morse quit in 2022 to look after his wife because she has terminal cancer and he didn’t want to be away O/S on DP world tours, that’s why he is now doing local US tours with the Dreggs. Here we are today... Just because Morse quit/retired, didn’t mean the rest would, Simon McBride joined same year, in 2022 (he has a long history with many of the other guys solo projects), made him the logical full time replacement. Cheers,
Didn't Deep Purple do a farewell tour when Lord was still alive & Morse was guitarist. About this song. Not bad. Sounds like something that would be on their Perfect Strangers LP as filler. I did purchase their 2013 album Now What?!. There were some good songs on that one. That was the last Deep Purple album I brought. Don't know if I'll buy this one. Yeah, it's sounds like Deep Purple. Deep Purple, for me, stopped being cool with that god awful 1988 Nobody's Perfect live album after their 1987 The House of Blue Light album. I love that album.
I like it, but it seems like a rewrite of Pictures of Home. Could've ended with extending the riff with a harmonica solo. Simon McBride plays cleaner than did Steve Morse, which is good. Also, if you check some of the live show recordings, he plays things closer to the way Ritchie Blackmore did than Morse.
I gave up on Deep Purple when they re-hired Ian Gillan after Slaves and Masters. I thought the revolving door was getting a bit silly. And seeing some performances of the band with Steve Morse, his guitar playing was never the right fit for me. It's the second time I've heard this track and I actually think it's pretty good. Nothing remarkable, and a little smoother than the band as I like to remember them, but it does sound authentic and not just a poor facsimile of what used to be.

Last time I saw them was in 2019, and they still put on a great show. Seeing them again (for the fourth time!) later this year. Can't wait!

LARGA VIDA A DEEP PURPLE!!!
Merci beaucoup! C'est incroyable! Longue vie!❤❤❤

This is so much better than the young bands... please never stop. LLDP.

They old as dirt, but I love this song.
Alive and kicking.
Surprisingly very Blackmoreish drive, hooks, riffs and progression imo.
I’m pretty sure that’s actually Jon Lords Hammond
