Deep Purple

Jackson Browne, Eagles, these days slightly Virgin Moran, not country, but sort of Jason Isbell type sort of that kind of, that kind of sound.

And my mum, she's, I mean, she listens to everything from Deep Purple to Joni Mitchell, Black Sabbath, Randy Crawford, Gloria Estefan, you know, huge range of music that was played in our house.

And then we were all totally mad Michael Jackson fans.

So with that in the house as well.

I feel

like Deep Purple have some kind of creepy stuff.

Smoke on the water.

Yes.

Sammy Hanger this summer.

Deep Purple across Europe in the fall.

You're at the exact moment where everything is about to tip.

Does this stretch actually, what does it feel like from the inside?

One original song, no drummer.

Tyler, you dropped out of sixth form to make this happen.

Now you're about to support Deep Purple and Arenas.

What does preparation feel like before a big show these days? And how has it changed as the rooms have gotten bigger?

Guitar was my first instrument I ever picked up.

Smoke on the Water was the first song I ever learned how to play on the guitar by Deep Purple.

And I just liked all music.

I never looked at music.

Question five, which British rock band released Fireball in 1971?

Fireball was released by Deep Purple.

I think it reached number one in the UK.

Question six was a music clip.

Lots of support for Ian being the best focus.

Look, he's great in Deep Purple.

He's fantastic.

Yeah,

They reminded me of Pan's Labyrinth, the eye thing.

That was a creepy eye thing, wasn't it? What have you been listening to? I've been listening to loads of things, but the album I want to talk about is Burn by Deep Purple.

Oh!

It's a blast from the past.

That's a great song! It is.

When a Blind Man Cries by Deep Purple.

There's a bunch of Beach Boys songs.

It's like the sad Beach Boys songs, like Surf's Up, Disney Girls, and Day in the Life of a Tree.
