deep purple

Purple Pyramid's ongoing series of tribute records has offered new re-recordings of hits by a growing list of artists that includes Genesis and Yes. The latest offering pays tribute to the Steve Miller Band.

He actually submitted a resignation letter to the band while still on tour promoting 1973's 'Who Do We Think We Are.'

The guys in Deep Purple are celebrating their 45th anniversary with another album and the latest round of tour dates. But if Metallica's Lars Ulrich had anything to say about it, they'd also have a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

"Live", 'Live', 'Live' , it appears a major portion of June is 'live album' month with the new goods being released whether it's by design or by accident, I'm not really sure.

Deep Purple, Frank Zappa, The Doobie Brothers and Iggy and the Stooges are in our first group of new or reissued music, DVD for June.

Every time we talk classic rock we manage to always mention groups like The Rolling Stones, The Moody Blues, Styx, John Fogerty, Deep Purple, Rod Stewart, and Judas Priest before it's all said and done.

It was in fun teasing the fans about the upcoming album but they certainly got a lot of mileage out it.

April is a fun month, not only diving in into Record Store Day (April 20th) but it's a new month which means new music.

There's a starting point for everything in life and for Deep Purple it all got under way in 1968. Ever wonder what can we do next (?) well with Deep Purple the new album is appropriately titled, 'Now What?!'

It's been an up-and-down year between Deep Purple fans and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- the band was finally nominated for induction into the Hall, but didn't make it in. Keyboard player Don Airey seems to be taking it all in stride, though; as he put it during a recent interview, "I don't think the band really care, actually."

Every weekday morning we pull a song out of the "attic". If you are new, the attic is a mythical place we used to hang out and enjoy great music and other "stuff".

Deep Purple are set to release their new album, ‘NOW What?!’ on April 30. The first tracks, a double A-sided single of 'All the Time in the World' and 'Hell to Pay,' will be available March 29. However, samples of both songs, and two live cuts, are currently streaming online.
