Tommy Sawyer Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 The first little bit of music sounds exactly like something Steve Howe would play, maybe from Turn of the Century or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Above and beyond is a homage to Jon Lord. Very, VERY cool. I was looking at an old editin of Classic Rock with his last interview, and it reminded me of what a coll guy he was. He mentioned still being in contact with Ritchie Blackmore through letters, and how he was still trying to be productive despite his illness. it´s one of the guys whose loss we´ll never get over.

adace1 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Hmm, those samples didn't sound especially impressive. Still can't wait to hear the full songs though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxPhHRDJ4TM Cool Morse solo, but otherwise, kinda bland, isn´t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxPhHRDJ4TM Cool Morse solo, but otherwise, kinda bland, isn´t it? Yeah very bland, very middle of the road, very meh, it's like a B side off another album. The guitars are not very prominent, and the solo is very restrained. Compare this to anything off the first Morse Purple album Purpendicular and it gets blown away. Don't even mention classic Purple or this song will evaporate.

Presto-digitation Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 So so song. Listenable mid-tempo fare. I've learned not to judge based on one track, but I'm not blown away by this either. I'm guessing it's not the album's highlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Sawyer Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 At least its not bad. I think I liked the first 30-second teaser better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HemispheresserehpsimeH Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Very meh. It's not really bad or anything, but it's just... there. Doesn't do anything or go anywhere promising. I'm sure there will be better songs on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Pretty disappointing song, I mean it's ok but nothing special, alright chorus, not great at all though, The House of Blue Light from 1987 has stronger material. if these two songs are the best on the album it's gonna be a poor result. The Morse solo is decent but he can do these kind of solos in his sleep by now, it's not memorable. Sounds like he's buried in the mix too, maybe the CD itself will sound better? Is Gillan's voice shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 These two songs sound like b-sides from their worst efforts like Slaves and Masters, The Battle Rages On etc. Treeduck, Gillan's voice hasn't been the same since at least the late 90's, and now it seems the whole band is just as tired. As much as I'd like to see Zeppelin doing another tour, looking at how Purple is right now makes me glad Plant decided not to continue with Page and Jones.

Exactly, no wonder they haven't done an album for about 8 years. I don't think it's Morse's fault he was energized and inventive on the Flying Colors album. But here he just sounds like a session guy phoning it in for the paycheck, on some throwaway rock album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 At this point this might be an album I pass on. Even the last one Rapture of the Deep isn't exactly a playlist fave, but it blows these songs away without a doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 I had another listen to the songs, they sound a little better second time. Maybe it'll be a grower...? :smoke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vincent Price track title is helping to get me back on board, very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
