Ian Gillan Reveals Deep Purple Working On New Album
. "The whole band is here. We have a studio in the Algarve where we're working on new songs," Gillan tells Zeitung. "In the evening we take a sip of good red wine and enjoy the tranquility. I'm woken up at dawn by a rooster in the neighbourhood and I get up when it gets light. When it gets dark in the evening, I go to bed. It's a no frills life; but it's a good life down here." Purple last month launched a deluxe edition of classic live set Made In Japan - but Gillan admits he has no interest in listening to it. "I don't like live albums especially," he says. "But I know the importance and significance of Made In Japan. The tour, 42 years ago, blew me away. It was my first time in a country where I felt fundamental differences in mentality to Europe. It was a culture shock to me. But it's influenced me in a positive sense." More from Ian. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
