Ritchie is in a good mood, very polite and gentlmenly, and handles the ball quite well. Also nice to see Mr. Roger Glover having a blast being his usual charming self. I did have the pleasure of meeting, All members but Don Airey. Very polite and nice guys. Dp is one of the rare bands who have something itellectual to say without excessive swearing or antics (One Mr. Coverdale), very rare to find these, and a great group of Guys. Great Post and enjoy the music. What a great video to see. Ritchie is in a good mood, very polite and gentlmenly, and handles the ball quite well.

That's these days musics lack of quality and power. But to be sorry, I'm one of the part of this age (I'm 25 now). I realized it when I compare the original recordings of classic rock acts like Deep Purple, Cream, The Who, and Grand Funk Railroad to the new generation acts like Green Day, Oasis, My Chemical Romance, and The Strokes. And the classic rock had the best sound at all! Really, talking about recording and sound, rock is died nowadays... Ian Gillan once ever said that he hate In Rock and some early stuff remastered. He said that they are very horrible, and he preferred to listen to the original vinyl records. I actually didn't know why, but after hearing the original and the remastered stuffs, I admit Ian Gillan had the truth. Relatively same things also ever expressed by Keith Richards, Bob Dylan, and Yes. #21 Roberto I accept and appreciate your reasons about TBRO. They're make sense, even honestly I do not agree that much. Hope they playing Anya again.... #25 Big Al Agree with you that 1993 tour was a killer one. Even the very fu**in' bad bootleg of the shows that I watched (I think from Munich, Norwegia, and Helsinki) clearly showed how Ian Gillan worst years was in the 80's (and maybe 2008, some might said). His vocal was so powerful, and the band really jammed together, Blackmore was on fire. Even Strange Kind of Woman and Speed King performances told us that virtually there were no problems at all between Ritchie Blackmore and Ian Gillan, with Jon Lord. Cheers!

I don't even hear a difference in the analog vinyl, and that speaks hugely about it. The Jap sounds the clearest, but still very thin. But one thing I never followed up on 'Ormandy' is the late Japanese version that is supposedly 'remastered' although I don't know where they would have gotten the original master tape from in order to do so, but then again they're brilliant at manufacturing recordings, so they may have faked it very well into sounding a whole lot better. It's really not a mixing, but a mastering problem. I'm never going to be interested in hearing it remixed. Ever pick up that Jap remaster? I saw it in an Amazon link once, so I know it was released some time ago. As far as it being underrated goes, I really only find that to be relevant concerning the fan base, they're always underrated outside of us, so we're really all that matters. And if it's underrated by the fan base, then there is obviously a problem with it of some kind, for me it's the mastering levels, typical of most CD's in this day and age, and no fault of the band at all, it's industry standards that control this sad problem, as you probably know, but others may not.

That's easy, by 1993 Deep Purple were considered classic rock and there's of course no way they could do anything good in 1993 (Grunge is king baby!!!). But I think slowly but surely the album is gaining respect. Even Glover recently said something positive. Oh, I forgot about why TBRO is underrated.

Ever since I got myself a UK (RCA) copy of TBRO, it's opened my eyes (and ears) to what a strong album it is. It's not just a good album, but a great one. The backing tracks that Gillan had to work were perfect, stunning, killer and then Ian G. delivered BIG TIME with edgy lyrics, great rock singing and multi layered backing vocals that blended perfectly. Blackmotre was a fool to leave the band at this point; but we are all thankful now. I don’t know Roberto’s reasons for thinking TBRO is a masterpiece and so underrated, but I have my own reasons.

You looked so sure and vindicated very much about this one.

Candice was the one who made (and keep) Ritchie smile and happy in this video (and in 1993 as well)... as this period was a real turbulence for him and the band. So Mr. Black really need her yellow blonde beside his shoulders really from time to time... But I prefer Candice as the referee, so Blackmore would smile and happy there even if he got tackled or got bickering, hahaha... Haha..Roberto, could you explain why TBRO is a mastepiece for you ?

I think you need to look up the meaning of "masterpiece" I'm quite sure you won't find 'TBRO' listed. tee hee! There is also a news clip, I don't know if it's on the DVD, but Rob, who is in the footage tells me he has the whole game backed with DP tracks. It's always nice to see stuff for the first time, and I doubt this in it's entirety will make it up anywhere else on the net because of the copyrighted audio. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iBpnGb7hAc&feature=related What ‘habits’ the drinking one he mentions?lol!
