    @Victor-Meldrew Also essential Yacht Rock.

    Sailing was the soundtrack to a particularly sweet love affair (we're still friends..)

    He played with Deep Purple at a show in the 70s when Richie Blackmore was sick.

    I had no idea he was such a good guitarist.

    That speaks volumes.

    Blackmore is one of the ATGs

    There’s also this….

    Pleasantly surprised by how, well, not bad this song is and hats off to them for still rocking at their age.

    I thought they sounded like tired old rockers in the mid 90s, this is genuinely better.

    Keep doing what ya love Purple !

    @MN5 That is indeed pretty cool.

    Just looking up and they are all not far off 80. Paice looks a bit slower, but fair play to him.

    Paice should be mentioned with Bonham, Baker, Moon etc but rarely is. He is an absolutely awesome drummer. Sabbaths Bill Ward is another who is underrated in a similar manner

    Gillan can still sing surprisingly well and Glover is steady as always.

    The other two are just ring ins 😉

    As I said, a surprisingly ok song. I assumed it would be terrible.

    Might be the best Australian song from the 80s.

    The recent albums by DP (produced by Bob Ezrin) have been really good. It was a shame that Steve Morse had to leave to be with his wife who was battling cancer.

    The new guy sounds ok but Blackmore is irreplaceable. One of the absolute guitar geniuses.

    Nothing they’ve ever done comes close to Deep Purple in Rock. One of my favourite albums ever. Perfect Strangers was a surprisingly good album though.

    I loved the doco on these guys.

    Gibbons is SUCH a good blues guitarist. I wish Dusty sang a bit more than he did though !
