DEEP PURPLE Drummer IAN PAICE Shares Tour Kit Rundown (Video)

A few months ago, Modern Drummer met up with the legendary Ian Paice of Deep Purple for a tour kit rundown of his gold sparkle Pearl Masterworks drums. The famous left-handed drummer spoke to David Frangioni about his odd setup and the reasoning behind it, revealing a few secrets along the way.

Deep Purple released their new studio album, =1, back on July 19. The album landed at #1 on the Official Album Charts in Germany, Sweden, and Switzerland, and debuted in the Top 20 in a number of other countries.

The band's single, "Lazy Sod", has now secured the band a #1 spot in the UK. Forbes Senior Contributor, Hugh McIntyre, reports that “Lazy Sod” bolts to the top spot on the Official Physical Singles ranking, earning them another leader.

Deep Purple has now earned just two #1s throughout their years together on the Official Physical Singles chart. The list hasn’t existed as long as they have, so it’s not shocking that they haven’t claimed many more smashes.

“Lazy Sod” is not new to the Official Physical Singles ranking, according to the chart itself. It’s now spent just two frames on the list of the bestselling individual tunes on any physical medium, and it reappears as high as a product can climb this time around.

As it returns to the physical-only roster, “Lazy Sod” also debuts on two other charts in the UK. The track opens at #3 on the Official Vinyl Singles ranking, as it’s that format that has helped the relatively new cut become a smash. The tune also launches at #21 on the Official Singles Sales tally.

Deep Purple's new album, =1, is available via earMUSIC.
