Das “aktuelle” Album “Rapture of the Deep” datiert von 2005 und wurde im Februar 2006 auch in Wetzlar präsentiert. Bei dem aktuellen Tourabschnitt gibt […]

Having seen DP one week ago in Cologne, the set list was nearly the same in Ravensburg last Saturday. The encore was extended by a breathtaking version of Speed King including some songs from the sixties, a stunning guitar-keyboard duel and s short bass solo from Roger. Stuff for a live record! Despite the fact […]

Talk about hard touring band… We’ve just received tour dates for the October/November Deep Purple tour of Germany. These are preliminary dates, they come from the site of promoter Klaus Bönisch, and at this point are very unconfirmed and subject to change.
