Darker Than Blue RSS- Mexico wayDeep Purple have just been added to the line-up of Mexico’s ‘Hell and Heaven’ Festival on 14th March at the Parque Oceania, which makes this their earliest live show of the year, albeit so far a one off. One assumes that as a result Don Airey and his band will not be playing in Slovakia […]
- ITMAAhead of Rock Candy magazine (below), Glenn cropped up on another magazine cover just before Christmas, the altogether much better looking Blues In Britain. Blues you say? That’s exactly what I asked when author Nicholas John first approached me about doing the feature. But he took a round about route, leaving aside the fairly well […]
- ‘Ere EarThe earMusic publicity machine seems to be grinding into action and speculation is that a May release for the new Deep Purple studio album (will they be calling it “Y And Beyond”? I dare them) seems to be on the cards. Ear have apparently (well Tim Summers told me, I haven’t got the patience!) been pushing […]
- Candy HorizonGlenn Hughes features on the cover of the latest issue of Rock Candy magazine in all his majestic monochrome glory. The cover suggests this is his “most revealing interview ever”, so ditch your copy of his autobiography now! It’s not an easy magazine to find, but the newsagents over at Rochester Road in Sheffield had […]
- Nick BlagonaNick Blagona, who was credited on numerous Deep Purple related albums died last week, having been seriously ill for some time. Seen above with Ian Gillan, Nick’s name can be found on the technical credits to Rainbow’s ‘Straight Between the Eyes’, Deep Purple’s ‘Perfect Strangers’, ‘House of Blue Light’, ‘Slaves and Masters’ as well as […] […]
- Santa’s QuizHere’s a little puzzle for the Deep Purple historians out there. This building, which is in Salisbury, played a role in the development of their Machine Head album in 1971. It might actually be the longest running purpose built hotel in the country and parts dates back to the C13, although that’s not a clue. […]
- Flower people 2Here’s another one sent in by long time DP fan Stathis Panagiotopoulos, a Deep Purple Celosia Caracas. It cannot be long before we have a Deep Purple themed edition of Garden’s World on Radio 4! Just the thing for those last moment Christmas purchases for the relatives though. Our last post on the subject is […]
- October festAfter all the teasers for Deep Purple shows around and in Europe we’ve posted here (see below, more to come) recently, fans in the UK get their chance with the announcement this week of a five date arena tour in October 2020. Support band is Blue Oyster Cult and tickets go on sale – er […]
- Limited edition of 20,000…Deep Purple started their official live archive series from the Steve Morse reunion era earlier this year. These will be sold as limited numbered CDs, coloured vinyl and digital downloads. The second release is a show from Rome (that’s in Italy, the press info helpfully points out) July 22 2013. The first, “an explosive show […]
- 2 for 1Very nice looking covers to the latest issue of the Spanish Deep Purple fanzine HUSH, it turns out that for a bit of fun they have sort of done two issues side by side, so you get two different covers, one showing Ritchie at his Rainbow concert there in Malaga, and other a great shot […]
