Deep Purple - Past, Present, Future

Unterschrieben. Und nen Vinyl-Rerelease der "Bananas" wäre auch mal was Feines. Fehlt im Schrank und ist ja sonst nicht bezahlbar. Und dann noch ein offizieller Vinyl-Release der "Abandon".

12.95 € habe ich für die Bananas-LP bezahlt (Preisschild klebt noch dran). Das war absolut bezahlbar. Und zudem 4 € billiger als die CD-Version. ;)
 
Für Leute, welche Stoner und Dope gut finden. Ich mag das ja! Lauter schöne Bands drauf! Die Songs sind eh unkaputtbar :feierei:

, Bandcamp Friday, May 7, marks the digital release of Glory or Death RecordsDeep Purple tribute, Bow to Your Masters Vol. 2. With a 2LP edition set to follow in November, the release brings together an assortment of established and new names — and stuff like Mothership-offshoot Topsy Kretts, Big Scenic Nowhere and Destroyer of Light-offshoot (also Mothership-offshoot) Temple of Love, which is new names from established names — as well as Mos Generator, Worshipper, Steak, frickin’ YOB and groups from the Glory or Death family tree including Red Wizard, KOOK, Gygax, RedWitch Johnny, and collaborations like High Reeper with Ruby the Hatchet‘s Jillian Taylor, Steak with Vodun‘s Chantal Brown, Francis Roberts of Old Man Wizard sitting in with Great Electric Quest, on and on and on and oh hell you can see the tracklisting below — just go look at it and tell me you don’t want to hear this thing. If you’ve ever EITHER heard Deep Purple OR heard any of these bands who’ve contributed to the comp, then yes, this is probably something that should pique your interest.

And yeah, YOB doing “Perfect Strangers” is a major draw, and as well it should be. It closes out the 15-song/78-minute offering with a duly flowing rendition of the title-track of the 1984 album that brought Blackmore and Gillan back together, albeit temporarily. But there’s more than just YOB going on here. Asphodel Wine‘s “Child in Time,” KOOK‘s “Space Truckin’,” RedWitch Johnny‘s “Maybe I’m a Leo” — also once covered by The Atomic Bitchwax — and Big Scenic Nowhere‘s “Demon’s Eye” are all killer, and from the boogie of “Black Night” as interpreted by Topsy Kretts to the sprawl of Worshipper taking on “Pictures from Home” — perfect band for that song, and they nail it — Bow to Your Masters Vol. 2 is jammed with what should be considered essentials. I know the sphere of heavy isn’t lacking in tributes these days, between Magnetic Eye‘s ever-expanding ‘Redux’ series and Ripple and others getting on board, but hell’s bells, how on earth are you going to deny Great Electric Quest‘s “Highway Star?” The simply answer is you’re not, and you shouldn’t bother to try.

I’ll make it simple. There’s a lot to like here.

The full thing is out tomorrow, and you can get your vinyl preorders in I assume when you do the Bandcamp thing or through BigCartel or however you go. Whatever it is that gets you on board though — whichever name is your pull — or even if its just the artwork by David Paul Seymour and Carin Hazmat that grabs you, don’t be surprised if you hear one track and wind up on board for a whole bunch more. Whether it’s Gygax boldly daring “Speed King” or Saturn doing “Into the Fire” or Steak taking one of the most iconic riffs ever and admirably making it their own, there’s plenty of fodder for a deep-dive.

That kind of makes the six-minute teaser premiering below excruciating, if I’m honest. Because while it features each song on the outing, it’s just enough of it to get hooked and want to hear the whole thing. A true tease, somewhat brutal. Fortunately a bunch of songs from the thing have already been posted and you can find them on the Bandcamp player nearer the bottom of the post.

The order link is down below as well, and the aforementioned tracklisting, which is substantial. I hesitate to call it a premiere for a teaser, but that’s what it is just the same.

Enjoy:

Ich stehe eigentlich nicht auf Coversongs, aber Volume 1: Thin Lizzy und Volume 2: Deep Purple sind jeden Cent wert. Alle Bands spielen die Songs in eigener Art und Weise, was mir außerordentlich gut gefällt. Die meisten Songs dürften m.E. auch live eingespielt worden sein, weil man die Liveenergie fast körperlich spürt.
 
Dann wird es wohl dringend Zeit mir die WOOSH auch mal zu kaufen, man will ja nicht all zu weit ins Hintertreffen geraten!
 
Ich hab noch nicht mal Kaffee, rauchen tue ich auch nur noch wenn ich mal was getrunken habe und gerade Jemand Kippen dabei hat.
Und meine Kinder sind nicht mehr Kinder sondern erwachsene Leute:D
Und Metal sowieso..
 
Hui, da könnte meine diesjährige Topliste ja durchaus noch einmal durchgeschüttelt werden, wenn die so gut wie die "Whoosh!" (oder wie schon gesagt eigentlich die kompletten letzten drei) werden sollte. Paice hatte ja in 'nem Video zur Promotion der letzten erwähnt, dass die mangels Tour sich gleich wieder ans Songwriting setzen würden, aber so schnell hätte ich nicht damit gerechnet...
 
Neues Purple Album "Turning To Crime" kommt bereits Oktober raus, nur ein Jahr nach dem Release der letzten Scheibe:

Freu mich, denn Whoosh! war super
Wow, kommt echt überaschend schnell. Während manch einer ein ganzes Jahrzehnt vertrödelt, geben die alten Herren ja richtig Vollgas.
Ich erwarte nach den letzten drei Volltreffern, nichts weiter als Songwriting, der Spitzenklasse.
