RUSHHEAD666 Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Joe Lynn Turner has mentioned in an interview to Classic Rock Magazine that he thinks Slaves & Masters is the best Deep Purple album. Whaaaaaaat?!!?!? HAHAHAHAHA! Thanks for the laugh Rod! Joe Lynn Turner must be smoking some serious shit. He must think that "Bent Out Of Shape" is the greatest Rainbow album of all time!!! I'm bent out of shape!! "Slaves And Masters" is the worst Deep Purple album ever made! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Made in Japan baby. and Burn, and Pupendicular. Who Do We Think We Are? Oh yeah and Perfect Strangers Hey DD! Did you know they just reissued "Made In Japan" again? It's in a digipak format. Two shows with all of the encores included!! IT'S A MUST HAVE!

Rick N. Backer Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I prefer Coverdale/Hughes to Gillan. So I agree, Burn, Stormbringer and Come Taste the Band are their best albums. Ready for some complete heresy? CTTB is actually their best album. So we are friends again!! LOL! Never weren't Earl. :) And if you need anymore evidence about the greatness of the mk III lineup, which song did Blackmore take with him to the Rainbow live sets in the Dio era? Mistreated.

RUSHHEAD666 Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Purpendicular is good, Greg. After that, there are a few tracks here and there, but nothing to be too excited about. "Vavoom: Ted The Mechanic!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha I know! I'm just kidding because of the Patriots thing! Yes! I knew that! "Mistreated!" This is the reason why I wrote two threads last night. Deep Purple and Rainbow. Heck even the Whitesnake thread is connected! I know people on here are probably tired of seeing threads about old school hard rock and heavy metal, but it's FUN!!!! I could type about hard rock and metal until the day I die!! Cheers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Their song "Highway Star" has the earliest example I can think of of a "Unison Solo" between a keyboard (organ counts) and a guitar. I'm both disappointed and ashamed... I listened to Highway Star earlier only to find for all this time I've been mistaking layered organ playing for organ / guitar... Oh well, still amazing stuff any way you cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Joe Lynn Turner has mentioned in an interview to Classic Rock Magazine that he thinks Slaves & Masters is the best Deep Purple album. Whaaaaaaat?!!?!?It's a weak album. it sounds like a Rainbow album but If it was a Rainbow album it'd be the worst Rainbow album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 If memory serves me correctly I do believe that Duck loves "The House Of Blue Light!" 1987 It's a solid album Earl! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have stayed with Yngwie! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fritz44 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The track Burn must contain one of the greatest riffs of all time. It certainly gets the head shakin' when I hear it. That track, 24 Carat and Come Taste the Band got me into Purple. I never really got into the reformation stuff, as I thought the coming together, after so much band blood between Gillan and Blackmore, stunk of 'innit-for-the-cash. Despite my aversion to new-Purple I did buy Now What?! and it is a canny album. Not Burn, but not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like Strangeways on that one, very different for a DP song (and cool!). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHHEAD666 Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 I can't believe me eyeballs! I'm watching Deep Purple Phoenix Rising. Tommy Bolin on guitar! Frigging Coverdale looks like fukking James LaBrie. Shoot me now! Didn't Wet Dream Cover I mean Theater cover Deep Purple? I mean lets get real people. Name a band Cream Theater didn't cover! Dream Theater is the biggest poser band on the planet. Text book nerds from New York.Chronic progressive wankers masturbating to Lee, Lifeson and Peart. Linus is better than Jordan Rudess. Jordan couldn't even hold John Lord's jock strap. RIP to a real keyboard player!! Paice blows Portnoy away! JMO!! Jordan Masturbates Often!Tommy Bolin is better than John Petrucci!

Rod in Toronto Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Earl, I just heard Dream Theater´s rendition of Purple´s Made in Japan...I was there when they did it, and my impression hasn´t changed a bit: most of it sounds awful!!!!! By the way, you and Tombstone Mountain would make a killer rock and roll comedy duo. Have you guys considered writing an edition of the Yukon Blade Grinder together? It would be great!

Rick N. Backer Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Incidentally, my beef with all the Deep Purple live stuff is that there is entirely too much "wankery" going on. I don't need a 45 minute version of Mistreated or Lazy. Blackmore continued that unfortunate practice with Rainbow. Zeppelin did it too, so I get that it's an era thing.
