Female Vocals on Deep Purple Songs
So far, I haven't heard many Deep Purple covers featuring female vocals.
I like this one . Awaken, A Belgian prog rock band has already covered it using female vocals too.
A certain Nick Cane did it with Into the Fire. And it worked.
And of course, there are the many covers of Deep Purple classics by various bands...
I was wondering which Purple song I would like to hear performed by a lady:
- Highway Star
- Child in Time
- You keep on moving

Yeah, They also did SOTW and Black Night in the early years (Black Night was later sung by Robert). They did several Rainbow numbers as well (MOTSM, SOD...).
