Live in Russia with the Ian Gillan Band.
With Jon Lord, George Harrison and Phil ‘Bung ’Em In’ Banfield. When they told me to put something on I found a sock.
With Bron and Deep Purple.
At an early age I chose between drumming and singing – no contest – and then came the congas.
The Ian Gillan Tour.
It’s not the shows that give life to a tour – it’s the company you keep. With Brett Bloomfield, Lenny ‘Mayor of Hell’ Haze and Dean Howard.
The smile is there, the glint in the eye is back – as is the spirit and rock ’n’ roll.
