DEEP PURPLE’s IAN GILLAN Chats With MICK WALL - Rare 1988 Video Footage Surfaces

In February 1988, Ian Gillan hit the promotional trail for the Gillan & Glover album, Accidentally On Purpose. Deep Purple were in the studio mixing the Nobody's Perfect live album, and Ian was out having fun, here in this hilarious interview with Mick Wall.

More video footage from the Deep Purple archives recently surfaced. In the clip below, Ian Gillan, Ian Paice and Roger Glover are interviewed in 1987 at the time of the House Of Blue Light release.

Another clip features a classic Ian Gillan interview after the Perfect Strangers tour. The band had just released the House Of Blue Light album in late 1986. They were riding a high and Mick Wall discusses the band, politics and life with Deep Purple. Ian Gillan, as usual, is straight to the point. Honest and forthright.

Deep Purple are currently touring in support of their new studio album, inFinite. The band perform next on June 1st at Zenith in Lille, France. Find the band’s live itinerary at this location.
