      I'm agree with you 100 % because all people : zeppelin but they aren't a full rock heavy songs they have more acoustic songs I hear the records and the band can't blown my mind like Purple or Rainbow on the past I tried to hear all Zeppelin stuff but I fall asleep and with Sabbath too.
      Long live to the King Blackmore!!!

    The UK crew were from the BBCs 'old grey whistle test' programme, who in 1985 had interviewed Lord and Gillan in the studio and basically insulted the pair saying they'd reformed for the money. Fast forward 2 years to Paris and the OGWT film crew again turns up, Gillan spots where they are from and gets his revenge saying they can only film the encore.....of which there isnt any!!!

    The unwritten law, if your voice is obviously fucked, don't ruin it even more by trying to scream your way through a song!
    Liz Kershaw, it was her dickhead brother who pissed Gillan off by saying they reformed for money.

    Why the hell would they not come out to do "Smoke" ? Probably the greatest known rock song of all time .And what's the big stink over an encore ? You've already played the show .What's another 5 minutes ? That's just being shitty to an audience

    • @ElonnaNY
      @ElonnaNY 9 лет назад +4

      cuninglinguist I agree it's shitty. Depending on what version you believe, either Ian Gillan was pissed at the French audience or pissed at the BBC trying to film, so refused to do the encore. Longtime DP roadie Raymond D'addario has said Palais Omnisport is so huge, the band couldn't hear the audience clapping, which made Gillan furious. The band and crew tried convincing Gillan the audience was clapping, but Gillan said, 'No, fucking arseholes, fucking French, I'm not having anything to do with it.' Even Ritchie tried convincing Gillan the audience was enjoying themselves and wanted to do the encore. Bruce Payne (DP manager) had supposedly told the t.v. crew they were banned from filming because Gillan was angry a BBC interviewer accused DP of being motivated purely by money. Eventually Colin Hart informed the Whistle Test crew Gillan had allowed them to film just one song using one camera, they were free to film the encore. But Gillan wanted to stick two fingers to the BBC, so he screwed the encore. This is in the "Black Knight, Ritchie Blackmore" book by Jerry Bloom.

    We all know the story of the band being angry with The Old Grey Whistle Test implying they reformed for the money (& that Blackmore is agrees with them).
    Thing is, I've not seen the bit at he end before - although they were only allowed to film the encore, the French TV shows us the probable real reason- Gillan was still partying hard and didn't care about his voice. I've never heard a show from 87 that's even as good as Nobody's Perfect, tbh. Unwritten Law always sounded like this before it was dropped. Always wondered if it's overdubbed, rather than him being warned they were recording beforehand and taking it easy on the sherry.

      dp6876 - So true. His singing was so bad. Today I will say. Get Ritchie back and Gleen Hughes as singer (not on bass - THAT one is Roger and only him)

    • @SpeedKingHighwayStar
      @SpeedKingHighwayStar 8 лет назад +3

      +Bo Finn Poulsen I agree Gillan sounds desperate in places here, especially on Unwritten Law, although he was generally better than that in 1987. Jon Lord himself said on interview that when Hughes was in the band he was "sounding more and more like Stevie Wonder" and that was part of his decision to end it in 1976. Blackmore was also famously quoted as saying he thought the Stormbringer album featuring much of Hughes material and Hughes singing was "shoeshine music". Hughes has also been quoted as saying he hated playing/singing the MK2 stuff such as Speed King and SOTW. So when you add all that up, doesn't seem as if Hughes is the answer, Lord himself quoted as saying he thought the decision to allow Gillan to leave in 1973 was a huge mistake that the management mishandled.

    • @sharpwildone
      @sharpwildone 6 лет назад +1

      NIce try, but this is NOT a representative clip of Ian Gillan's singing during the 1987 tour-or any other DP tour. From accounts I've read in various sources, including back issues of the Deep Purple Appreciation Society magazine, Gillan had a bad cold or sore throat but the gig went ahead anyway, and the BBC crew was restricted to recording audio only from the soundboard (as has been mentioned elsewhere on this page, Gillan was still pissed at a BBC presenter for accusing the band of reuniting only for the money). Gillan's move backfired given that he was not at his best (obviously) that night, so the BBC not surprisingly stuck it to Gillan by playing the raspy vocals during the program. But it's ridiculous to contend this was how Gillan sang every show-otherwise the band would have clearly stopped selling tickets. Time has shown that while the band can survive without Ritchie, it cannot survive without Gillan-the "Deep Rainbow"/Joe Lynn Turner debacle proved that.

    MKII were great from '69 to '73 but I truly think Purple MKIII with Hughes' writing and singing could have been a dynamic and more versatile band from '74 onwards. MKIII worked when they wanted it to. They just weren't a very focused unit after Burn. Actually the band was coming apart way before they brought in Hughes and Coverdale. Come Taste the Band was the last real spark the band ever had in the studio. That album had a nice vibe about it. To this day I've never heard Purple capture that again. I think Blackmore belongs in Rainbow. It suits him better. Purple is too "hippish" Purple since the 90s is more like the 70s Gillan band.

    • @TheSteveSteele
      @TheSteveSteele 7 лет назад +1

      Ridiculous reply. Gillan was a vodka chugging drunk who lost his voice. MKII could only write three good albums. But it's a matter of opinion. Purple were breaking up in 1973. MKIII just kept it going for a couple of years, but those were damn good years, with great music that was different than MKII.
