Got to see Deep Purple in the early eighties, Ian Gillan singing. Past their prime but still good and f###ing loud.

so sad saw them in the '70's I can still remember Jon carrying that Hammond around ..rocking it back and forth ..a true master with a classic sound
RIP
Saw Savoy Brown open for Deep Purple at Boston Garden in 1970 something.... [drink] [drink] [drink]
Truly a loss to not only rock, but music in general.
He's jammin' with RJD up there now.
RIP Jon.

A big fan of Deep Purple. Introduced my teenage kids to them, and other bands like Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Stones. Kids were blown away by the music, one 16 year old daughter in particular, but she also likes 60s & 70s muscle cars. I raised her good.
RIP
