They were part of a question on ‘Pointless’ yesterday. (Pointless being a U.K. gameshow the object of which is to score as few points as possible. Lowest score wins)
They showed a photo of the Mk 1 version as part of.a Name The Band round and no-one had a clue who they were. I did, and I told my wife who was watching with me. She was very impressed. I could tell.
Freddy Steady says
Is that Ian Gillan? Some quirky guitar er, licks on that first track. Who’s the guitarist these days?
bungalowjoe says
Not too well up in the lineup to be honest Freddy but think it’s Gillan in vocals
count jim moriarty says
Gillan, Paice and Glover all present and correct, with Don Airey on keys and Steve Morse on guitar.
Uncle Wheaty says
Bloody hell are they all still going.
Respect.
Roger Glover must be the most anonymous man to have ever played on some of the greatest ever hard rock records.
Freddy Steady says
I’ve got a Roger Glover solo album. Never played.
Freddy Steady says
Steve Morse is a bit too widdly widdly for my liking. Bring back Ritchie!
Askwith says
It’s OK for a bunch of guys in their 70s but it’s really not a patch on DP in their prime
Mrbellows says
It’s insane to think that everything will remain the same. Even though it does.

I bet Nick Simper would garnish a pointless answer.
Beezer says
Quite so, retrop.
He was in the photo and it was a pointless answer. A hush filled the studio.

👏 @beezer
Billybob Dylan says
Steve Wright is playing ‘Nothing At All’ as I type. This isn’t Deep Purple! This is a travesty!
retropath2 says
The album has just got editors choice in All Music’s weekly update.
