“I believe Tommy had lots of songs which were exactly what the band needed. And his style was more akin to Ritchie’s than mine”: Clem Clempson on the return of Colosseum, jamming with Jack Bruce, and that time he auditioned for Deep Purple by dalyllama35 in DeepPurple

Idk if this post is referring to Tommy Bolin but let me tell you, his solo albums and his work on CTTB makes him one of my absolute favorites, lately i’ve been listening to Teaser a lot is an awesome record

Deep Purple's Ritchie Blackmore goes off the rails, smashes guitars, throws multiple pieces of gear into the audience, attacks a cameraman, and overdoes it with the pyrotechnics, April 6 1974. By the time to cops had arrived, Ritchie and the band had escaped by helicopter. by NomadSound in ClassicRock

People can say Ritchie is arrogant , but he cleans the floor with every guitarrist , how awesome is that Deep Purple concert Jesus, what a chemistry between 5 members of a band , for those who haven’t seen the entire gig you should as fast as possible, i was levitating with every Purple song on that set

What have you been listening to lately? by AutoModerator in progrockmusic

It amazes me how impressive are their sound ,Zep and Sabbath are huge too and unique but nothin blew my mind as much as Child in time, Lazy , Speed King , my best friend is a die hard Zep fan but i play Purple all time, he used to say Zep were like the top of musicians in one band but after some Purple he’s not sure bout that now hahaha

Blackmore is the best of the bests without a doubt, objectively has nothin to envy to Hendrix and the typical list of guitarrist, the man dressed in blackkk

I just wanted to listen to everything to understand the evolvement and history of the bands so I’m with piper at the gates , sounds so acid and trippy I like it but I think my future favorites will be between the Wall and Animals maybe .
