      Yes, he said: “he is a genius or a mad. He is a genius”. A man capable to transform the “falsetto”, a dull, “white” sound without any “appoggio” or body resonance, known from ever as “The voice’s plague” in a truly full modulating voice...

      In an interview Gillan has said that DP were primarily an instrumental band and his vocals were the 5th instrument. Each member contributed some exclusive trademark to each song. That's why he and others were at the same level of perfection and performance.

    I often have musical dreams, and I've dreamt this song all the way through while it tears me up emotionally, just as it does in real life. It's tragically timeless because it fits every war, every terrorist attack, every crazed shooting ever. The screams are so intense and the occasionally rough sound so fitting that even though it makes me cry, it's still a masterpiece that I can't help but listen to all the way through once it starts. Thanks for the excellent review!

    You also gotta appreciate how Ian is a master of improvisation, like many of his bandmates. Each little performance is different (which is something Luciano Pavarotti of all people made sure to talk about) and then you have these moments like that "three times I tried to be with you" bit at the end which was entirely ad-libbed in the spot- it's not in the studio cut and it's got different words in every live version of this song. It just adds flare to the music and makes each performance unique.

We were on our way on leave and this other airman (there were over 20 of us) had a portable record player, playing the Deep Purple In Rock album in the carriage. It was amazing, to say the least. I am now 66 and this song still gives me goosebumps, and from one of my favourite albums. It was great listening to you enjoying something that I had heard when I was 16. My musical tastes grew exponentially during that time, listening to so many different types and styles of music. They were very special times where the music produced then, is still being listened to and enjoyed by so many new and young ears. The Groundhogs, Blodwyn Pig, Pink Floyd Jethro Tull, May Blitz, Yes and ELP to name but a few. Now I listen to Snarky Puppy, Big Big Train and Ozric Tentacles as well, though Ozric's are very much from the '70s in many ways.

    David Byron from Uriah Heep, please! Most underrated band from that era.

    The original release of "Jesus Christ, Superstar" featured Ian as Jesus. What a voice.

      The spanish version is better, Camilo Sesto owns the part of Jesus like no other.

      @@pawevearnomah Your response made me have to find some of his music and see what I thought, nice voice but I will respectfully disagree. Personally I feel that Camilo's voice is too pure, I prefer a voice with some edge to it. Just my opinion.

    Ian Gillan is using his voice as a percussive instrument also. Holy fookin. It took multiple decades for somebody to point out to me why he is the GOAT. You just made an old geezer incredibly happy.
