Hi Roger Couple of three …

Hi Roger,

Couple of three questions.

Do you think you could persuade Steve’s SMB to consider supporting DP for the next UK tour. (It is possible because Steve has played in SMB and the Dregs on the same night on a bootleg I’ve heard).

Has Ian Paice EVER missed a Deep Purple gig ?

Will you tour SNAPSHOT over this side of the pond.

 

Hi Roger First I want …

Hi Roger!
First I want to say Happy Birthday! A couple of days late, but anyway I hope that You had a good birthday with many presents and cookies. Now to my questions:

Do You play the bass on the Elton John album “Madman across the water” as some rumours say?

When are You coming to Sweden again? To Sweden Rock Festival maybe?

 

Hi Roger My question is …

Hi Roger!

My question is: Did you ‘ok’ the cover of the Love Conquers All single? If so; what on earth were you thinking? 😉

 

Hello Roger Believe it or …

Hello Roger !

Believe it or not the first rock album i was introduced to was In Rock, before that it was
Charles Aznavour and Gilbert Becaud……..
So imagine the culture clash when the opening
bars of Speed King started…That was 1973, i
was 9 years old and seen i’ve been a great fan
..I don’t know what it is about you British but
what you do as musician is totaly impeccable.

 

Mr Glover I have two …

Mr Glover,

I have two questions that I hope you will answer to in details.

1 – I adore all the music Deep Purple does (and all the branched if I may say of that band = Rainbow, Blackmore’s Night). My favorite Deep Purple song is, by far, Wasted Sunsets (I read once that you wrote that particular song, is that true ?), for the melody, the lyrics and above all, the Fantastic guitar solos of the greatest guitar player of all time : RITCHIE BLACKMORE.(Well, you guessed it , I am a Die Hard RB fan, with no offence to anybody), Could you please tell me how RB came up with these solos and how was it while he was recording them … Very few guitarists can play with such heart and soul.
