Bernie Torme is touring UK, promoting his latest solo album Flowers & Dirt. Metal Express Radio talked to him, and it’s an interesting interview. He spoke about how he joined Gillan band, how he left, and quite a few things inbetween.

    Always enjoyed his guitar playing on those early 80’s Gillan albums. When Janick Gers replaced him, it just wasn’t the same. When I witnessed the Gillan band live in 82/83 in Sydney, it was a disappointment to not have him still in the band. It was a raucous gig all the same with Ian Gillan going off big time, also off his face by the look of it! Happy days indeed! Cheers.
