July 25, 2024, 5 months ago
Deep Purple Appreciation Society blog, Darker Than Blue, has shared the video below, along with the following intro...
"Providing you can get past the selfie footage of him stood over the toilet (quite a risky camera shoot or hard to explain insurance claim I would have thought!), then Ian Paice's drum roadie has done a "day in the life" of, condensed into just over six minutes. Cimi Mezzano is the guy, who is often seen on footage of more recent Deep Purple gigs keeping time on a flight case (prompting a lot of 'what's going on' type questions in the process). Thanks to Meurig Thomas for pointing it out, er, sending the link."
Deep Purple recently released their new studio album, =1. The enigmatic album title encapsulates Deep Purple’s philosophy of unity amidst complexity, promising an album that resonates deeply with their five decades spanning hard rock legacy.
