Joe Lynn Turner Suffered Heart Attack was a top 18 story of April 2018: Former Rainbow and Deep Purple frontman Joe Lynn Turner's camp has released a statement via social media confirming that he suffered a "myocardial infarction" (aka heart attack) and is currently recovering.

The following was shared on his Facebook account on Friday (signed by Turner and his wife), "Dear Friends and fans, I would like to start with two great thoughts that would describe our state of mind: 'My relationship with my body has changed. I used to consider it as a servant who should obey, function, give pleasure. In sickness you realise you are not the boss. It is the other way around.' - Federico Fellini
