Closing the full circle and opening it up again
Paicey continues to answer your questions. In this installment: Neil Peart, Buddy Rich tribute, J. E. and C., And the Address, future albums, making of In Rock, the perennial setlist debate, loudest band in the world and hearing loss, and how to play Burn.
Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
Well….that’s a few mentions of working on another album that I’ve seen this week.

The most talented people in the world are the most humble. MR Ian Paice you are not an exception to the rule👍👍👍👏👏👏
December 7th, 2020 at 13:42Very nice of Ian to answer my question about his hearing (-loss). I think he is very honest about it.
December 7th, 2020 at 14:31If you are reading this Ian, thanks a lot!
About the possibility of working on their 22nd studio album is music to my ears!
December 10th, 2020 at 13:58Ian is forgiven, but he mispronounces Neil Peart’s last name like most people do. It’s
– not “Purt” as in hurt or heard,
– not “Pairt” as in pear or wear,
– not “Part” as in heart,
– it’s “Peert” as in weird or hear!!!

See, you learn something new everyday here at The Highway Star, the website devoted to the betterment of English pronunciation (when Ronnie Romero isn’t singing, that is)! ; – ) And, no, I didn’t pronounce it correctly until recently either. Hey, I’m a Kraut, how should I know?!
Not that Deep Purple members haven’t suffered too: In Germany, in the 70ies, “I-an” (as in Ryan) and “Jillan” were popular mispronunciations of Ian Gillan or Little Ian. And “Rooger Gloover” was frequent too. As is “Jibson” for Gibson (the guitar brand) to this day.
December 11th, 2020 at 17:22I am really really becoming a fan of Paicey’s talking as well as drumming!
