Well RIP to this person.

 

 

But please......comparing a one hit wonder to Van Halen is ridiculous

 

Use the internet, boner. Not only ignorant, but stupid. :noway:

 

From Wikipedia:

Deep Purple are cited, along with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, as pioneers of hard rock and heavy metal.[3][5] The group have influenced a number of rock bands, including Metallica,[92] Queen,[93] Aerosmith,[94] Van Halen,[95] Alice in Chains,[96] Pantera,[97] Bon Jovi,[98] Rush,[99] Motörhead,[100] as well as many New Wave of British Heavy Metal bands such as Iron Maiden,[101] Judas Priest,[102] and Def Leppard.[103] Iron Maiden's bassist and primary songwriter, Steve Harris, states that the band's "heaviness" was inspired by "Black Sabbath and Deep Purple with a bit of Zeppelin thrown in."[104] Lead vocalist of Def Leppard, Joe Elliot, has stated, "In 1971, there were only three bands that mattered, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple."[4] In 2000, Deep Purple were ranked number 22 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock" programme.[105] In 2011, they received the Innovator Award at the 2011 Classic Rock Awards in London.[16]

Blah blah blah .......still a one hit wonder

 

Hush

Highway Star

Smoke on the Water

Woman from Tokyo

 

All still on airwaves regularly. Apparently you can't count either

 

Walk down the street and pick any 5 people you want. Ask them if they have heard of Jon Lord. Then ask them if they have heard of Eddie Van Halen.

Not sure why you feel the need to shit on other people's threads, but if a fuck you is in order here, it is directed towards you. Now bugger off already.

Weird, I had the song Hush running through my mind as I read this thread. Carry on. :wave:

 

Band reunions can often come across as flat, but damn if Perfect Strangers was not an ass-kicking song, including Jon Lord's intro.
