The Bolin / Coverdale / Hughes Project on Tour

Was the studio album full of surprises, so the live tour for the album surprised not only the audience, but also the members of the band. Deep Purple were there already no longer on the boards that mean the world. What there was trying to give the impression of unity and solidarity, had long degenerated to fight the forces of nature.

Here I mean not so much the musical qualities, but above all the human sensitivities. It was mainly about besides the influence of drugs to make money. A very good album in claim degenerated into perversion of the whole. It was not enough so we blighted even old classics of the band, which once accounted times Deep Purple. A tragedy highest degree. There are photos of an exhausted Jon Lord. Desperate about what he experienced on stage he bends over forwards.

Three members of the band stuck his head into the intoxicating powder. Thus suffered the music and remained on the track. Here I'm talking about the deplorable Tommy Bolin. To him, it was not possible properly to play guitar because a drug shot in his arm that put virtually paralyzed. A shame for this virtuoso. In addition to that his management is not 'expect' the other hits wanted. He should, above all, the title of the album 'Come Tast The Band' playing. The band paid homage to their new guitarist even with an interpretation of its own design '"Wild Dogs"'. All that was actually for the famous Katz.

Due to the complaints in the arm, it was unfortunately only possible to strum a few chords Mr. Bolin. Really good he was to none of the minutes included in the shot. The summit of the drug-infested disaster reflected in the downright lousy guitar solo again. Here he achieved almost nothing, but he drew the sounds of his guitar apart only by means of electric tools. He then reassembles them again and put new simple after. He had such a thing is not necessary. Really bad this situation was because he had already proved what he really could have done.

Only the services of Mr. Lord and which are basically the highlight SuperDrummer Ian Paice. Excluding both the failure of the weakened Bolin would have been even more concise. Straight Jon Lord rescued with classical passages in Solo the level of the event. Even the good Ian did his best as he drummed a sovereign solo.

Then even the unfounded cries of the two front protagonists. I'll never take it like that time again Glenn Hughes complained that she had been given the role of the singer Coverdale. By repeatedly in the background screamed second vote the titles were rather clearly not better, but lost. Then this senseless severing of Smoke On The Water. A true sin in the sense of the Lord. What was that? Concern was to circumvent the temporary inability of the guitarist again? We will no longer find it.

To prepare the terror ultimately an end to hear you only times the last two pieces of the presence of. Current bearer is still; and still can be heard not much of the piece itself. It thrives on the guitar. These schrammelt only to himself. It strums and mumbles, but really starts will not go there. Only the Lord Lord applies himself. At Highway Star is just.

At the end will be closed from the evening of 15 December 1975, only the certainty that the project as well Bolin / Coverdale / Hughes is not working. When Deep Purple you could not call it. Later, yes give also to all those involved that what was standing there on the stage was no longer able to cope with big names.

A BUY recommendation there despite everything. After all, it is the only completely preserved concert in this good quality and the occupation described. In the spirit of old romantic transfigured history it was once again not too bad. For each Purple fan enriching - that's for sure.
