Darker Than Blue RSS- U.S. tour set list spoilerThe double-header American tour (dates on the site) kicked off last Saturday, and finds Deep Purple clipping back the set a bit to allow for Alice Cooper (and their crew, and Edgar Winter). They have also dropped some of the new album and the show includes just two numbers from Infinite, one as the first […]
- It’s ArteThat German broadcast of Deep Purple’s current tour from Hellfest is finally on line, you can check it out via the link below. Thanks to Tim Summers for the info. Really well filmed and a pretty decent performance, and great to see Paice back on top form too. http://www.arte.tv/de/videos/076475-000-A/deep-purple-beim-hellfest-2017
- C’mon, let’s go…If Galaxy Quest is one of your rainy Sunday film treats, you may enjoy the trailer/s for a new 2017 US Sci-fi parody series called The Orville. You may even recognise one of the Machine Head classics used as the music for the first one! Thanks to Karl-Heinz Baier for the heads up. Will certainly be […]
- A Fire In The SkyNo, not a story about the upcoming Machine Head book of that name, but the title of a new Deep Purple US compilation (though we do wonder where they got the idea!) due in September, most likely to tie in with the band’s tour there. It’s the first extensive collection for America in a good […]
- South AmericaFive Deep Purple shows over in South America in December 2017 if you fancy a bit of a pre-Christmas break! Added to our date list. Argentina, Brazil (three venues) and Chile. Thanks to Mark Maddock.
- Extended playDeep Purple are releasing Johnny’s Band from Infinite as an audio CD EP in early August. It’s just the album version (a video has been out for some time) but to tempt collectors comes with a rehearsal jam and three live tracks (two oldies) listed as unreleased, but I’m not sure where from or when. […]
- On TVUPDATE : Airing July 29th, see details people have posted in the comments below. The fairly recent Deep Purple set at Hellfest 2017 was filmed and a one hour special will be aired on ARTE sometime this month (July). A few clips were shown already as part of a compilation. Get checking those TV guides! Thanks to […]
- Down UnderGlenn Hughes is doing his own Deep Purple tribute act later this year in Australia, and will do a full set of Purple songs. Dates announced so far are: September 20: State Theatre, Sydney; 24; Concert Hall, Perth; 29: Hamer Hall, Melbourne; October 1: Qpac, Brisbane. The band are fairly familiar to Glenn followers – Jeff […]
- Rainbow setBit of a set list spoiler here for those who aren’t going to see Rainbow, so don’t go futher down the page if you don’t want to know! On first glance it’s not that different to the 2016 tour but changes have been made. Spotlight Kid / I Surrender / Mistreated / Since You Been […]
- GrossThis great advert turned up recently, from one of the American music trade papers, bragging about the earnings of Deep Purple’s Perfect Strangers American tour back in 1985. The tour run from January through to May (with breaks) and generated nearly $7 million in ticket sales, over half a million sold. It was later was […]
