Very convenient, and unlikely! This is a work of fiction IMO, she is probably not involved at all, and if she is it has been by having snippets of interview taken out of context and woven into this narrative which comes across as an obvious wind up in more than a few places.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Early Eighties fan)Mon, 04 Sep 2017 16:01:24 +0000 Re: Shoshana speaks!https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512482,from=rss#post512482https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512482,from=rss#post512482How can anyone say, that this sounds"made-up", when we are talking about events that happened over forty years ago? It is her version as she remembers it. It is not very complicated. I can't remember much from forty years ago either; I'm over fifty. In fact 30 years ago is a bit distant too... I think we need to be a bit more tolerant. We are all experts at what has happened to Blackmore and Purple etc. We've all surfed the WEB, read SOUNDS and MNE, listed the to Friday Rock Show, some of you have met our revered stars: all this to glean more info and get nearer i.e. we are all ardent fans. I suggest we know more about some parts of their lives than know about themselves (not literally or course - but you get my drift). If someone said to me you did this or that 35 years ago (because I know as I have been researching you) - it would be rather difficult to refute it because I haven't got a day to day diary or whatever ... Its a nice read as she remembers it. Not more not any less.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Blackmaple)Mon, 04 Sep 2017 10:57:59 +0000 Re: Shoshana speaks!https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512456,from=rss#post512456https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512456,from=rss#post512456I'm pretty sure he didn't want to be a celebrity anyway. nondisclosed_email@example.com (RatBatBlu)Sun, 03 Sep 2017 18:28:29 +0000 Re:https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512441,from=rss#post512441https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512441,from=rss#post512441Sounds made up TBH, too many obvious references from RB/DP past, almost wind-up level really. The Blackmore angle would maybe help sell her books/music, but she has missed the sweet spot to spill the beans because RB isn`t a celebrity any more (although some teenagers with smartphones have heard of him) TBH he never really was a celebrity, maybe in the rock world only?nondisclosed_email@example.com (Early Eighties fan)Sun, 03 Sep 2017 12:52:28 +0000 Re: Shoshana speaks!https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512435,from=rss#post512435https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p512435,from=rss#post512435quote:nyfan wrote: Is she related to Dio's cousin David Rock Feinstein - formerly of ELF?
