Darker Than Blue RSS- Down Mexico Way againDeep Purple have added a big tour of Mexico to this year’s schedule, ten dates running through November. It’s quite a relaxed trip in that the dates are spread over twenty days and only two shows are back to back. The image for the shows with them all in arctic gear seems very inappropriate! Thanks […]
- Einem MeisterwerkJust to let people know that there will be a German edition of the Deep Purple book Wait For The Ricochet later this year. Published by Hannibal, it will look very similar to the original, with the same illustrations and format. If anyone is interested, the title can be pre-ordered already from the publisher’s own […]
- Drawing skillsThe researchers for the upcoming Machine Head book have put a call out for a couple of items in case anyone in DTBland can help… [1] Has anyone got a good clean scan of the album review from America’s Creem magazine in 1972? It most likely appeared in the May or June issue but might […]
- Москва́The setlist from Moscow last week gives an idea of the current set of dates: Highway star, Bloodsucker, Pictures of Home, Strange Kind of Woman, Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming, Uncommon Man, Lazy, Time for Bedlam, Birds of Prey, Knocking At Your Backdoor, Perfect Strangers, Space Truckin’, Smoke on The Water – Hush, Black Night […]
- And so Deep Purple beginsWhat did you do at the weekend just gone? Me I walked round to the shops for some bread rolls and a Saturday paper, did a bit of weeding in the garden and gave a talk on pre-War commercial street photography. What did Derek Lawrence do with his weekend just gone fifty years ago? Only […]
- East Coast BlackmoreBlackmore’s Night have announced seven shows around the East Coast of America for July 2018. Each show is a passport to a time gone by according to their press release. Thanks to Tom Dixon for sending this on. Dates added to our diary page.
- Fifty onceClassic Rock have pushed the boat out with a Deep Purple cover issue on sale now. Some of us have been admiring the cover art too, would look great as a poster. It’s actually quite a strange image, familiar but not quite right. The answer turns out that it really is a montage – Ritchie’s […]
- Purple DatesDeep Purple have announced another batch of concerts. They are kicking off in the third week of August in the USA, Cincinnati on the 21st and running right through to the very end of September. Tickets are on sale from today. The band then head over to Japan for five shows. Nothing listed for Tokyo […]
- 45 and countingForty five years ago this month someone was sweltering away in London hacking apart both Machine Head’s Smoke On The Water and the live version from Made In Japan. One of the execs at Warners had been to see Deep Purple on their American tour and seen the amazing reaction Smoke On The Water was getting […]
- Swiss timeDeep Purple return to play the Montreux Jazz Festival again this year, and appear on July 4th. They are headlining the Stravinski Auditorium (with support band). They last played here in 2016. My thanks to Lutz, Tom, Bo, Denis and everyone who sent me the update this week! Below, nice snap of fans waiting for […]
