Re: DP lead singers
Well I guess people are entitled to opions, even if they are crap
Seriously however, maybe it's just me, but I can't conceive of any possible way that JLT surpasses Gillan, at all, ever, in any musical conetxt.

Re: DP lead singers
JLT was a descent singer for Rainbow, but it was a mistake to try to pass Rainbow off as Deep Purple with Slave and Masters. JLT was over his head.
RB should have kept his two bands separate entities and not have tried to combine them.

Right indeed. The big question remains though; who decides what's crap and what's not? That is also a matter of opinions, and you're entitled to yours. Like everybody else.
I can very well see JLT as a better singer than Gillan. Not better than Gillan was in his prime (which to my ears limits to the years 1969-72), but overall, throughout their careers. In the context of Deep Purple Gillan will always be the no. 1 singer, JLT will remain the least important one. But you say "at all, ever, in any musical context" and then I think this is a very open question. I believe it's fair to say that technically JLT is the best one out of these two great singers, some will disagree of course. But that's again down to a matter of opinion.

Re: DP lead singers
Probably should've asked Graham Bonnet to join instead of JLT. Or Paul Rodgers as Ritchie (jokingly ?) once said they started TBRO with. Hear Rodgers is with Queen now.
