Great interview, with a hopeful D.C talking about the integration on Tommy Bolin into Deep Purple. Time off for Solo albums etc
Tommy Bolin was a great guitarist, songwriter, singer.. Solo stuff, James Gang, etc.
I love the ‘Stormbringer’ album. It’s probably the Deep Purple album I play the most.
What a lovely man. It´s so sad Deep Purple in that setting didn´t made more music. Thou Whitesnake with Mickey Moody and Brian Marsden was good too. The more Heavy Metal Whitesnake was ok but more superficial. Compare the lyrics of "Give me all your love tonight" to "Soldier of fortune" and at least I know which song I´ll sing "Till the day I die"...
The interviewer cuts in a rushed way...like coked out...type of interrupting.
Seems clear from DC's comments that at this point all was not lost for Purple. However, the behaviours over the next 7 weeks of the American tour must have been so bad it completely finished off the band.
Corniest interviewer ever.
