• Jellybean
• Hi Nate, thanks for the message. I’ll go by “Jellybean”, my nickname when I discovered the band.
• That would have been 1971, when I was 11. Was visiting the kids next door, a couple years older than me, they were playing this wild music – Purples eponymous third album. Hooked! That organ – you didn’t hear that sort of thing on the single radio station in our small rural town. I was learning organ at the time and wondered why I couldn’t make such sounds!  
• They dubbed me a copy and ai played it so much I wrecked it. So went and bought a real copy. Saw a bunch of other Purple cassettes there and a few weeks later went and got their new release “Burn”. So good. Still my favourite Purple album. 
• I remember telling another neighbour “Deep Purple are releasing a new album today – Stormbringer”. Off I go to the music shop again. I didn’t have a lot of cash, so I bought very few cassettes in those days. It would have taken months to save up for one.
• Sometime after that, I was listening to music with my cousin, he says what do you think of this song… wow, oh wow. Didn’t know the song but at all but knew it was Ritchie playing. Was told it was something called Black Night. So I went from Mark I to Mark Iii &IV and not heard Mark II at all. Back to the music store, pick up a cassette called “24 carat purple”. A Mark II compilation. Floored all over again. 
• Eventually I get a bit of a job and a record player, start buying the back catalog on vinyl, the older stuff. Went in reverse order – Who Do You Think We Are, then Machine, Fireball, In Rock, thinking these guys are getting better!
• Favourite band then and still now over 40 years later. And Burn is still the best. 
• I got to see the band only once, their 1984 comeback tour. Dec 4th in Melbourne. So loud, so amazing. 
• Then I lost track of the band, moving around the country for work and life stuff. Thanks to the podcast which I’ve been listening to this year, I’ve listened and learned about the extended family. Thanks heaps to you Nate and John for the shop. Glad to be a supporter. 
• Cheers, Jellybean.

The Cicadas Are Here!

• https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/05/17/2024-cicada-emergence-chicago-illinois/
• They’re loud, but they’re harmless. And some people even like to eat them.
• Cicadas are beginning to emerge from the ground around Chicagoland and Illinois. Two broods will converge on the state in a historic emergence. They belong to Brood XIX, four species that appear every 13 years in the Southeast, and Brood XIII, three species that appear every 17 years in northern Illinois.
• It will be the first time in 221 years that these two specific broods come above ground at the same time and in such proximity. The last time this happened was in 1803 when Thomas Jefferson was president, and Illinois had yet to become a state.

Reception and Charts:

• https://www.glennhughes.com/discography.html
  • “Recorded in Tokyo in the Summer Of 1994. A brilliant concert, my band played incredibly, the audience was fantastic. I felt my Creator present while singing Still In Love With You on this live recording. It was one of those nights that was like a dream. The crowd gave me tremendous energy. My fans are my songs, they are my lifeblood. Turn this one up really loud!”
• Message from Glenn Hughes:
• Here’s the most relevant part of the latest message from Glenn, from 21. December 1994:
• To all Deep Purple Fans
• I would like to thank all of you, who purchased the Mark III and Mark IV albums which I performed on.
• I am currently writing and in production for my next studio album to be released in the early summer of 95. My live album (currently on import) Burning in Japan [sic] will be out in the New Year. Six Purple songs are performed here to great satisfactory performances.
• You must remember that Purple asked me to join to add a new dimension to the sound, which I did. I have the greatest respect for Ian and Roger. But David and myself are different writers, performers and singers. I wish all the Purple family the very best, and to you all Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year!

Bustin’ Out The Spreadsheet

Reviews

• Nick Simper’s Fandango: Future Times Shark / lnterford 148.506: Germany: 1980. My German is not very good (well, non-existant really), but there does seem to be second album out by Simper’s current band. As the first LP (‘Slipstreaming’, reviewed some time ago) was poorly received, we thought the band had just fizzled out, but it looks as if they might have gone to ground in Europe to earn a living. I expect some import copies will surface here for those of you dedicated or curious enough to want it. It’s unlikely that Gull records will want to issue it here. There are nine titles listed:1/ Pull Out & Start Again, I’ll Never Get Over-You, Get Down Lay Down, She Was My Friend. 2/ Future Times, Undercover Man, Something’s Burning, Hard Drink & Easy Women. Jeez, the titles alone are enough to put me off it!

Lead up to the Album:

• In 1989 Gillan had done a series of shows as Garth Rockett.  Gillan says the idea was to do a tour out of suitcases and never build it up into more than that.
• Gillan writes in his 1993 autobiography Child in Time: “When I began to formulate plans to make the Naked Thunder album and rediscover my career as a major artist, there was disappointment and some harsh words were said when, in fact, all but Steve Morris would have no major place in this next stage.”
• Gillan says he mentioned to Morris that he was going to do an album that Steve mentioned that he also wrote songs.
• Gillan told him to send him some tapes.  He then describes the next morning having his cereal and doing the crossword while separating his mail into two piles, one for the bin and another to read.  He describes this one brown package with no return address that had way too much tape on it so he ended up getting frustrated and just threw it in the trash.  He says later that he was playing pool with Graham Underwood when he heard a backing track come on the speakers.  When Gillan asked where he’d gotten it he told him it was from Ian’s trash.
  • Earlier in the book Gillan describes Graham Underwood as: “  At around the same time, I’d also become friendly with Graham Underwood – drinking buddy, deadly pool opponent, car fixer, anything fixer, non-stop piss-taker and general partner in crime. Soon to be known as ‘Squiffy’, Graham easily slipped into the role of tour manager, general listener, troubleshooter and so on. Our first meeting was at some pub or other (where else?), when I discovered I had no money on me to stand my round. I asked Graham if he could lend me some, and he bought me two! I then asked again if he could help me out with a note, to which he said, ‘What do you want to drink?’ So I thought I’d better deal with this, and said, ‘Triple Scotch and Coke, please,’ which prompted him to lend me the money!”
• Three of the four tracks on the tape would end up making the final album.
• The album was made at Duncansby Cresecent Woodcray Studio, Amazon Studios, and Olympic Studios.
• Gillan mentioned Bev Bevans playing on some tracks but he isn’t listed in the liner notes.
• He also says John Gustafson – that man again.
• Gillan said there’d been so many changes in the industry that he struggled to find a deal for the record.
• They finally signed on to Teldec-East/West, releasing the album in July of 1990.

• On backing vocals Ian Gillan says in an interview in Metal Hammer:
  • “Most of the musicians in my band at the moment aren’t the best singers in the world. So I decided to have someone else hanging out there. They’re keeping me on my toes. In twenty eight years I’ve worked with every combination imaginable. There was a few years in Episode Six with six singers in the band all doing harmony stuff. It’s nice to get back to working with harmonies. The way it’s used is very important I think it can be as effective as another couple of instruments.

• $3 “Nobody’s Perfect Tier” – West-super-Mare pilgrim
• Hi Nate, John, I have been a fan of Deep Purple, ever since in 1979 my older and very cool next door neighbour lent me his Made in Japan album. I was 13 and had mostly been listening to Top-50 radio. Made in Japan blew me away and is still my favourite Purple album. In 1981 and 82 I went to see Rainbow in Rotterdam and saw Ritchie in top form. After that, what little money I could get my hands on, went to albums of Purple, Rainbow, Whitesnake and the likes. After their reunion in 84 I have seen Purple numerous times and they were always exciting. On my profile photo I am standing at the house where Ritchie was born in Weston-super-Mare. I’m not one to idolize people, but for Ritchie I made an exception. You can therefore refer to me as Weston-super-Mare pilgrim. I have listened to several episodes of your show and like the way you dig into an album and its background. Keep on going and thanks so far for the entertainment.
