I prefer Mr Universe era Gillan, when he was second to none vocally.



While I like the Born Again album (Disturbing The Priest: terrible verses, but the chorus burns)



Isn´t DTP just a rip-off of Scarabus? DtP, one of my all time fav´s. Just the drums, when going into the chorus....

Re: Gillan's Worst 10 songs


Disturbing the Priest??? Are you kidding? Of course the verse is a rip-off from Scarabus, but all in all it is great to me! It is very heavy and very dark, the singing is great, too! This devil-like laughing is fantastic!

I also like Haunted. It is quite different for a Deep Purple tune, but still very beautiful. Funny enough, some friends that didn't care for DP too much heard this song and since then they listen to the band and like the guys very much!

South Africa is fine, too. Would have fitted well on Accidently on Purpose...

Don´t get me wrong, I love DtP. But I always heard it as the Scarabus rip-off

Not surprisingly though.

But surprisingly that they already knew the band, but didn't care for them and now they do...

Not really. They weren´t into deep purple, then they heard Haunted and the album Bananas and liked it.....Well is that so surprising?

Of course it is! They already knew their music, but didn't like it too much until they heard Haunted...

Exactly, they don´t like deep purple, listen to a crappy album and likes it. Not because it is deep purple, but because it is not deep purple, did you get it now?

I agree totally. Painted Horse is amazing.

I kind of not like the scarabus album too much as also quite a few on Abandon. Apart from these albums I think most of Gillan's work is great.

Do you really have problems to understand???
They knew the music of Deep Purple, but didn't care too much for it. They heard Haunted and liked it. Now they listen to Deep Purple - not only Bananas, but also the other stuff. They like their music now, no matter, whether we talk about the 70's or about the recent line-up.
If you got a problem, it remains your problem, you can't make it mine...
