New Dear Friends on Caramba
http://www.gillan.com/friends37.html
Makes for a good read, though JFM should NOT read this, as it might hurt him!
For everyone else, he mentions a bit about Gillan´s Inn and very little about the next Purple album(obviously in in creative progress at this time) DP have broken with EMI, new label for the upcomming album to be found. Mmhhh, this might effect the release date actually.

Yeah - and the new label may say - we want the album BEFORE the end of this year (YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!).
I wonder if they will be picked by any of the majors or is it going to be a hand made thing... as much as I remember, it is the first time ever that DP get to work over the new album having no valid contract signed. Sad but true...

Re: New Dear Friends on Caramba
Ian does mention that Bruce already has a smile on his face
and i took that to mean that the deal is done
but it will be Bruces decision when to announce it.
And it dosen't matter who really if the figures from
the banana's release are correct, that is disgracefull

Well it appers from Ian's quote that EMI would only press 18k and DP easily reached that mark. 150k in attendance from UK and only 18k sold. Hmm...math doesn't add up. IMHO the blame should be on the record company, not the group.

I dunno, it sounds like they're already signed with someone.

Re: New Dear Friends on Caramba
I've also heard that they have already signed one, not too big label which is willing to support their new CD "as much as it's needed". Blimey, I can't remember where did I take these info from. I'll check the internet again.

That bastard! What does *he* know. Hm.
(I know which T-Shirt I'm going to be wearing on the next Purple gig.)
