Deep Purple is doing covers


Deep Purple is doing covers with Bob Ezrin, beginning with "Now What?!".
"It'll Be" (Now What)
"Roadhouse Blues" (Infinite)
"And the Address" (Whoosh)

Also with "Abandon" (Bludsucker) in 1998. They should not remake any Mark 2 song in my opinion.

IMHO, they should carefully choose the song they cover, they should stop covering old Deep Purple tunes.

My suggestion for good covers are...
Ian Gillan Band's "Mercury High" and "Money Lender".

I can't get out of the house, this sucks really. 😭

I would love to hear Deep Purple´s take on Nobody´s Fault But Mine - but not in LedZepp way of doing it, but like Tom Jones recently did - mindblowing version!

Yeah, it does, but I was able to listen to albums I have not heard in a long time.

I was able to listen to the whole album BANANAS 5x(yes, I did!) last Monday. I still don't remember some songs.

Tuesday, I listen to the whole album RAPTURE OF THE DEEP 4x and I liked it.

Wednesday, NOW WHAT?! about 4x also, it's good.

Thursday, INFINITE 2x only.

Today, I'm listening to ABANDON now.

Albums that I discovers that have more good songs.

That would be interesting. My opinion is in Deep Purple case is don't cover or remake songs that is a rock classic that cannot equal or come close to the original version, the classic Mk2 song can never be equalled, DP Mk8 remake of Mk2 will only result in second rate copy of the song.

"Hush" is an exception, DP made the song it's own. I don't think Morse can equal Blackmore performance in "And the Address" track, maybe Mk8 can surpass the sound quality of the 1968 version, but the performance, I don't know, I could be wrong but...

Anybody prefers ABANDON's "Bludsucker" to IN ROCK's "Bloodsucker"???

There are lots of good songs from Ian Gillan Band, Gillan, PAL, Dixie Dregs and other artists to cover.

I like Bloodsucker on Abandon - thought they did a good job on it.
