Excuse me Sir/Madam Are you saved? If you died tonight are you going to heaven? For god so loved the world that he gave his only son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Pete Marr Jesus loves you. Jesus is the first and last Whose spirit shall guide us safe home we’ll praise Him for all that is past And trust Him for all that is to come. I’m God’s child God is my Father Heaven is my home Every day is one day nearer My savior is my brother Every Christian is my brother too. This is the Christian secret to a happy life.
Да, если толковые парни подсказывают в каком направлении двигаться, то он берёт нужные аккорды. Болин сбацал как они и хотели, по Пурпурному. Альбом на самом деле шикарный.
Wow I had never heard that Randy California played with deep purple even for only one show... I thought Tommy Bolin was awesome had a great style but Richie was definitely the definitive purple guitar player , he is in my top five all-time guitar players, along with Jimi Hendrix ,Jeff Beck , Jim Page , number five could be Steve Howe or Brian May or Roy Gallagher or Johnny Winter or someone else depending on the day
I think their mark 3 and 4 output is amazing.. And more interesting than their classic Mark II. They put out too less good stuff, but their great ones are burn, Stormbringer, mistreated, you keep on moving, soldier of fortune, the gypsie, lady double dealer, you fool no one, sail away, dealer, drifter, coming home, getting tigher, love child ezc
I saw them with Tommy in Pittsburgh. Great show. Bolin was incredible. No mess-ups. Just solid creative magic. Jon lord rocking the Hammond. Paice great drum solo. Couldn't hear for a week after that but it was really fun and memorable.
Tommy was probably my biggest influence playing guitar. I am 52 now and still love the album CTTB. He was already dead when I started listening to his albums in 82. Thx Ian! I still have your drumstick from the Purpendicular tour at Asburu park nj. You looked right at me at the end of the show and threw the stick right at me. I caught it in the air and was thrilled!!!! Take care from Philly!!!
Please Mr Ian share some more of these treasure stories because they're true gold. Thank You for bringing a small part of a huge story that is Deep purple and all your friends. Bless you
Great to hear Ian Paice talk about Tommy Bolin. Come taste the band is the best Deep Purple record. Funk, jazz, blues, hard rock, and everybody is on fire.
@@jaimeres haha, even some pretty full on Deep Purple fans don't even know that album exists, along with Slaves & Masters it's the most unknown of all DP records
Gary Moore was my wife’s best friends boyfriend in secondary school. She’s now a Dame. Re. Tommy Bolin, I bought Teaser in 1982 and have been a huge fan ever since. Wild Dogs, Teaser and Post Toastee are just fantastic tracks. I often wonder what could’ve been...
I Loved Tommys Playing. The Teaser LP is Wonderful. I was young at the Time, I was So Happy to Hear He was Joining Purple. Ive listened to To You and Tommy Jamming. Ive only Seen Tommy Once. He Opened for Frampton. Tommy was a half hour Late on. They said he Had a Flat Tire. Sure Sure. He was Messed up Bad!!! I felt almost Sorry for Him. He just stood on one Spot and Played. We had a Bass Player Like Him. Ya Havta Slap him awake to get him on Stage. Hed Play Wonderful them off the Stage with a Girl and a Bottle of Jack. Thank You For Your Memories. Ima Old Now. I needs me Some Drums to Beat on again. Sometimes I Dream Im Playing While I Sleep.
Like so many, I loved Deep Purple in the early 70's as a kid growing up, and I always wondered what Ian Paice was like when not pounding his kit with Lord, Glover, et al. Now I see what a thoughtful, intelligent, nice man was a part of making the music that shaped us coming along.
Randy California briefly played in a band with Jimi Hendrix before he went to England it was Hendrix who got Randy to change his last name to California.. fact!
What a great series! Could listen to Ian read a phone book and be entertained 🤔 Come Taste the Band is one of my favorite albums... Tommy Bolin was an absolute beast👍
I was fortunate enough to meet Randy C. after a show in 83.Friendly and gracious.Awesome player.I got to see DP twice in 72&73.Thanks for the memories,Mr.Paice.
Bless you, Mr. Paice. You have true compassion for your fellow artists that is all too often missing from people in the music game, or in any walk of life for that matter. And you have given all of us drummers who came up listening to you a fine example to aspire to, and also a fine example of being ‘human’ to one another.
Tommy Bolin’s Post Toasties is one of the greatest guitar solos ever. Wish the production was as better. I thought it was the speakers in my 1978 impala.
yeah I saw you with Purple , in cologne at a indoor festival in the cologne sport arena ( Koelner Sporthalle ) in January1970 together with Colosseum and Spirit . I was 15 years old and it was my first concert . it was magic , 3 of the best bands ever , thanks Ian !
I loved Gary's live album with you "We Want Moore". Great band! Shapes of Things off that album still blows my mind. Tommy Bolin, I wondered if you were going to talk about him. I imagine it must be hard. A tough subject for a lot of reasons. I love all his recorded work. Yes, he fell apart sometimes and for a band like Purple, that can't happen. But he was special. Sadly he left far too soon. Randy California, so good, so unheralded. "12 Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus" is his magnum opus. You were blessed to play with so many great guitarists. The one you have now is worth a mention too, Steve Morse.
Blackmore, Bolin, Marsden, Moore, Morse, and for a short while, Satriani... Ian was sure blessed to work with some talented guitarists. I love the show Ian did at the Cavern Club around 1999 with David Gilmour and the bassist from Wings. He looked to be having an absolute blast.
I always respected you Mr. Ian Paice when you shared that you extracted rhythms from the audible sounds of things falling and hitting the floor. Genius...very impressive statement stuck with me my whole life though I'm no drummer but a mere singer/guitarist.
I still use and have an EP3 Echoplex. Its a great piece of gear. Still a loss missing Gary Moore. Please check out Gary Moore, his blues and his rock playing
Wonderful insights, Ian. Not to wish away all the fabulous music that wouldn't have happened, I've often wondered what might have happened if Gary had been on Purple's radar in the spring of '75 when Ritchie left. There might have been some amazing music.
Thanks so much! Lovely discussion. I loved the Tommy Bolin records, but I really loved the way he stuck his style into that 'Spectrum' record with (I think) Jan Hammer Billy Cobham Leeland Sklar
Thanks, Ian - great to hear you talk about this. Keeping the music alive(and the memory of fine players) is what it’s all about. And maybe someone will discover something old new. Be well.
All wonderful musicians. Bolin was an exceptional talent from when he was young. Had he lived, he surely would have been recognized as one of the finest All Around Guitarists in both Rock and Jazz. Tommy was THAT GOOD!!!!
Thank you so much Mr Paice, from the bottom of my heart and from the infinite passion for the music i grew up, reading magazines in my little room in Naples, Italy, looking at the pictures of all of you great legends, reading interviews knowing and understending the reasons why you play and i buy your records. It is a real pleasure hear from your voice these incredible stories, parts of rock n roll History. Grazie Mr Paice, ti voglio bene. Cesare
Thank you for the priceless memories and discussion of a few of my heroes. Amazing guitarists are truly a gift to drummers such as yourself with the innate talent, push and pull each other to heights us normal musicians only dream of...but it is fun trying. Tommy Bolin's 'Dreamer' is one of the greatest songs ever recorded, IMHO. Thank God for you Maestros.
Am very pleased that Ian mentioned Randy California and Spirit. I've been a big fan of this group almost as long as I've been a fan of Deep Purple. His account of Tommy Bolin was moving and I have the privilege of catching this Bolin lineup of Deep Purple with Ian, Jon Lord, David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes at Leicester Granby Halls (now a shopping mall...) in about '76. I say privilege but I don't think it was one of Bolin's good nights as he was being heckled by a section of the crowd which can't have been nice for him. I think he lost his nerve playing some solos which didn't sound great. I only learned really how good he was when I listened later to Come Taste the Band but also the phenomenal record he did with Billy Cobham which probably helped turn Purple on to him. I wish now I'd had the balls to go over to tell those hecklers to STFU.
Thanks for the wonderful stories, Mr. Paice. 0:11 Randy California 2:50 Tommy Bolin 7:41 Gary Moore Spirit - Mechanical World (1968): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MqUdswZY6jI.html
Dear Mr. Paice. I was honored to see him play here in Brazil twice. The first in 1991 in São Paulo, and the second in Rio de Janeiro, in 1999. Seeing him in action these days is an encouragement. Greetings from a Brazilian fan!
Thanks again Ian!! I loved Tommy, his playing and his sound, his laid back attitude and his ability to play so many different types of music. It was magnificent but in a much different way than Ritchie who is my personal guitar god.
My first ever concert..Victim's of the Future, Gary Moore..Hammersmith..with Ian Paice & Neil Murray on bass..can't remember keyboards..might of been Don Airy ..and about £6 to get in too!!
I was really waiting for this interview about Moore, there is not much information about him as a person, there is not much videos talking about him, what he used to be. I am really happy, thank you Ian!
Thank you, Ian, for these videos. BTW, I've gone to 4 Purple concerts in India: 1995, 2001, 2002, 2006, and I was at two press conferences. I still have the photos.
Fantastic insight from Mr Ian “Machine Gun” Paice, in hindsight after working with arguably the greatest guitarist to play from the heart of all time in Richie Blackmore and arguably the greatest guitarist to play from the soul of all time in Steve Morse, having to try and work alongside somebody as messed up and constantly unprofessional as Tommy Bolin must have been a nightmare. You can tell even now some 45 years later it still grates Paicey that Tommy Bolin and Glenn Hughes messed up so bad, became sloppy onstage, got involved with drugs and left him and Jon Lord with no alternative but to fold the band they loved, the band they formed. Ian though being the absolute Gentleman that he is still finds a unique way to speak highly of Tommy and Glenn and share some fond funny memories of them. True legend !!!
@@AleksP1987 what's right with him ? haha, he does that weird dying cat squealing thing over and over and over and over and over again. He seems to try too hard, comes across as a bit of a phoney. Was in Purple for less than 5 minutes but never shuts up about it. Dude you are the reason Jon & Ian broke up the band you plonker, just get on with your own thing. He tours under a Glenn Hughes Deep Purple banner trying to sing Smoke On The Water and Highway Star, it's just embarrassing, dude these are the "classic" Deep Purple songs, Gillan & Glover wrote them, go sing one of your (never mind they never got played on the radio ever) songs. They all try it, Rod Evens tried to call himself Deep Purple In 1980 and got sued, David Coverdale calls a Whitesnake album The Purple Album, Hughes tours as Glenn Hughes Deep Purple, they all try to drag the band's legacy through the mud. Go get your own careers you Muppets. On a positive note Whoosh is incredible, fresh, colourful and original. Massive thanks to Mr Paice and the band 🙂
Luke Partridge I don’t know all the details from their biography from that era , I just know that Ritchie and his ego made lots of problems for DP in that time. I really love the Hughes/Coverdale era, also Hughes had recorded 3 albums as a side man and lead singer, I think he had rights to sing those songs in his solo career.
@@AleksP1987 Anybody can sing anything they want, even I have sung those songs onstage. The difference is Glenn Hughes was touring South America & The Third World as Deep Purple (with glenn hughes in really small writting) so thousands of people went out and bought tickets thinking they were seeing Deep Purple. Once they realised this wasn't Deep Purple, just some washed up Bass player that was in the band for 5 minutes and was part of the reason the band broke up, then there was a massive walk out, it was a very embarrassing moment for Glenn and I think a few legal issues too, plus stunts like that just aren't fair to fans, especially in countries where most people don't have internet and didn't have anyway of knowing it was a scam, so for these reasons I don't think Glenn should squeal through "classic era" Deep Purple tracks that he was never even part of in the first place.
Dear Ian thanks for your channel. Please, why don't you make only one small gig or concert with Ritchie? The time is ticking, unfortunately... For us for fans. It would be greatest thing if you guys will play something together again. Gillan, Paice, Ritchie..
"A very nice relaxing" informative 10mins Ian, cheers, yes I love Randys playing, a legend also!, Its still a great album you made with Tommy,, His "Teaser album is "Fantastic,
Come Taste The Band is still one of my favourite albums. Tommy Bolin did have a great tour of the United States in 1976 with Deep Purple. The gigs in England not great but there was division in the band at that time and fans were expecting a Blackmore soundalike which wasn't fair.. Listen to Tommy Bolin in the James Gang and his solo albums, he was a great talent and still worth a listen. He was gone too soon and sadly missed.
I went to the Liverpool gig at the Empire, I know they played Leicester and two gigs at Wembley. The first show did not go down well with the music press. The Liverpool concert was poor for a band of Deep Purple reputation. I have no idea how the Band fared in Glasgow.
Your comments about holding it together when things don't go as planned puts the Cal Jam performance into context. I was watching it recently and was in awe that you and Jon Lord appeared to keep jamming though the chaos when Ritchie went ham (even though I read that your glasses had been blown off your face from the blast). I was wondering how you knew to do that instead of bailing. I think I now have the answer. As a fan from the early 70's, I would sincerely say, thank you for sharing the history of what was really going on. I don't know a b flat from a Buick, but I am enjoying these Ian Paice Drumtribe videos.
There's a great version of Mechanical World on a brilliant Spirit album called 1984, released that year, with a mixture of new songs and re-recorded ones from 12 Dreams. Fantastic album. I also have a good Randy C album from the early 80s, Restless.
The Twelve Dreams is a fantastic album with lots of interesting guitar work by Randy California. "Nothing to Hide," which starts it, has enough to keep you interested and keep listening to the rest of it. It's weird how great that album is, even as the band was disintegrating over conflicts about its direction.
I glad you mentioned Spirit. So I was perusing their "catalog" on YT. Listened to Mech World(the video included one Skunk Baxter), was reminded of the Taurus/Stairway to Heaven controversy and ..................listened to Nature's Way! I remembered that song alright!! Thanks for the reminder of that band!!
Thomas Richard Bolin... One of the most incredible rock guitarists EVER. The stuff he did with Cobham, Mouzon, and with his band Energy is some of the most jaw-dropping displays of skill I've ever heard. Prior to joining Purple Tommy used a pair of Echoplex machines, feeding one into the other for an effect that is indescribable. (Best example: 'The Creator Has A Master Plan' by Zephyr, live in 1973 at Art's Bar and Grill.)
Very interesting,thankyou Mr.Paice. After trying several snare drums at John Scheerer`s in Leeds(ain`t there anymore,or Northern Drum Centre & Coda in Bradford,sad) I bought one of your Pearl signature snare drums when 1st launched;lovely drum.I stopped playing long time ago & admire you for still playing. To Tommy Bolin fans I`d recommend listening to Billy Cobham`s "Spectrum" album. Some awesome guitar work & dualing with Jan Hammer.
I consider your Work in the 70’s to be brilliant . I followed then at the time and was anxious waiting to get to the stores to buy them.My favorites are: Machine Head, Fireball, In Rock, ,Who Do We ..., Burn, Stormbringer,CTTB ,Malice in the Wonderland and everyone live with Deep Purple.The sound of your drums in the 70’s was unique .👍🇧🇷✌️
Thanks Ian, loved the Come taste the band album. Each member has brought new and different things to Purple and I appreciate them all. And your guitarists, Ritchie, Tommy, Joe, Steve and Michael Bradbury. All good, all different and blended well into Purple. We have been spoilt, thanks
so you are my idol Ian, i hope some day I can meet you, I saw you in poliforum of Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico last year and it was very good experience for me to see you playing "pictures of home" and "highway Star"
Come taste the band with Bolin the best DP record with Ian on fire with all that mix of elegant rock funk and soul with the magnificent vocals of Hughes and Coverdale.
I always think that when I jam with people, it's like a sharing of "souls" (or whatever you wanna call it). Every time one dies, it's like a little bit of me dies too, so I can sympatise hugely. On the other hand, their music will outlive any of us... 3 legends. BTW, you nearly brained me with one of your thrown sticks at Reading '82, haha!
