Faster than Yngwie!

As if I had posted it ... You can be tasteful even in tights as an over-sixty-year-old with a much too young American wife of Polish descent faking a Brit accent. It's all in the hands.

Dave, what is this? Stadium medieval folk? 

You mean I have to listen to it?

Well I'm not going to!

On the local hard rock station they do a segment on new releases every Tues. A couple of weeks ago they introduced 'Blackmore's Night' and started to play a song clip. The song was stopped immediately and someone was yelled at for loading the wrong music because "this isn't the Deep Purple guy's music". After a quick check of the disc and the internet, they were stunned that he was indeed playing "Elf Music" as they called it. They played three quick sections of songs before the main jock just said "We will not be playing this on our station....ever". I had a to laugh because I figured that at that moment, somewhere in Germany a lawyer might have felt a sudden sub-conscience need to defend Blackmore's honor.

Whatever you may think of his present course, you have to admire someone for steering his own one, regardless of opinion...

I just loved the way Neil Young was given total artistic freedom by David Geffen to sign up and when Geffen realised what he'd done...

I don't remember any videos from Trans, so I picked something (lower right) from a video of the tour, recorded in Berlin (last date on the tour iirc) called "After Berlin" - reminisent of Hurricane or Inca - no studio version I am aware of - perfect Neil Young - performed once and never heard of again...

Oops... wandered off again... sorry...

Fatter than Yngwie? That's pretty fat.

Those radio station guys must be deaf. The song structures of Blackmore's Night are sometimes so close to Rainbow that it is almost to the point of aping. Don't let some medieval garb and a woman's voice fool you. Blackers is Blackers whatever he does.

Back in the vinyl days I once slowed down an Ingwie record to half speed, and he never misses a note. Still not my cup of tea, but it was amazing.
