    Got to say, I’ve really been enjoying this new “One Eye To Morocco” LP, the best Gillan IMO for 20 years. Very refreshing, and even the girlfriend/missus will probably like it! Get it today if you haven’t already!!

    I have to agree with truthhurts. This is definitely one of Ian’s best ( and I have everything going back to Episode Six days and even the Javelin CD). I was playing it in my classroom and some of my students popped in and enjoyed No Lotion (since that was what was on when they stopped in.) and I teach at an inner city high school.

    wow, Gillan performs quite close version to the original, and he follows the melody (and remembers lyrics as well), that’s surprise 😀
    great performance…

    Truth! One Eye To Morocco is amazingly innovative with new perspective that Ian showed us. So unusual and refreshing style.

    George,
    I think that he plays on playback,the music played is too faithful to the original recording on cd…
    or maybe I am wrong .. who knows..
    however,I bought this disc , I listened but I have not yet assimilated, indeed .. it has taken a bit of dust.
    perhaps I am too gloomy, I do not warm..

    No, that’s a live performance, for the band as for Gillan.

    But so good that I’m not surprised that you think it’s playback. But Gillan isn’t Coverdale, no playbach! 😉
