- Okay, Deep Purple fans... Time to nail down at least one
- of the rumors that's been floating around lately... And this is
- as "official" as un-official news can be!
-
- According to the UK's Deep Purple Appreciation Society,
- Ian Gillan HAS, indeed, rejoined the band. Their current plans
- include a new LP and tour to celebrate their 25th anniversary
- this year.
-
- Given Gillan's and Blackmore's antipathy towards one
- another, I don't know HOW this can be, nor how long it can pos-
- sibly work out... but I trust that the DPAS has its info cor-
- rect; they have their act together!
-
- When the band re-formed in '84, I was speechless with
- happy disbelief; when Gillan left in '89, I predicted that the
- band would NEVER have that lineup again... I can't tell you how
- happy I am to be proven wrong!
