Here’s to the next one!
A message from Don Airey:
It was a great boost to the band to tour behind a hit album and very gratifying to hear audiences singing along to Vincent Price, All The Time in The World and the rest as enthusiastically as they did to Smoke or Black Night.
It has also been a tremendous lift realising the impact NOW What?! has had on people’s lives.
Here’s to the next one and thanks to you all for making this so possible!
Don
Thanks to Andrey Gusenkov for the info.

November 22nd, 2013 at 17:48Man I sure as hell hope he has some influence here regarding pushing for ‘the Next One’…. ;>)
November 22nd, 2013 at 18:53And for us – the fans – please give us another great new album like NOW WHAT !?

November 22nd, 2013 at 19:03Thank You Don!! Great Album!!!! You are a Fantastic keyboard Player!!!
November 23rd, 2013 at 03:27The fans on this website were right.
The band needed a new album to counter the endless touring with essentially the same or similar set lists. Recall that that classic Mk II line-up was becoming self-admittedly cabaret-ish–and they did not take eight years between albums.
Fans also pushed for more Morse-era music to keep the band relevant.
The new album was the proverbial shot-in-the-arm. They are playing new songs–and good ones–and suddenly the group is in the limelight once again. Purple has gained a second wind, and both band and fan confidence is restored. It must be a blast to be able to belt out both old tunes and new with equal power.
Hopefully, they will not wait another eight years for the next one.
November 23rd, 2013 at 04:41It is a great Deep Purple album. I still listen to it on a regular basis. Will I be listening to it in 20 years? Who’s to say. Right now though, it still works for me.
November 23rd, 2013 at 20:56And this time a ROCKER!!!! ooooops sorryyyyyyyyyyyy
November 24th, 2013 at 10:47Well, contrary what I thought earlier this year, ?! has made it possible (if not down right likely) that we’ll get another album from DP some day. And that is gggrrreattt!
November 24th, 2013 at 12:41Thanks to you Don and the rest of the boys for making such a wonderful album.. Now What? Are you touring Mexico? Say yes!!!
November 24th, 2013 at 20:49It would be great if they do another album but they need to crack on with it soon as they are all getting up there!
November 25th, 2013 at 09:59Maybe there are some tunes left over from Now What sessions.
As other people note, it would be also great to see them do a tour with more Morse-era songs.
Now let’s here from the band “but wait…there’s more!”
November 25th, 2013 at 12:53Now What? the added caffeine both the band and fans needed.
Thank you Don and also thank you for all the years of great music with Rainbow and Ozzy.
