Parkinson's disease and although he participated in the writing and recording of Firepower, he said he just couldn't do the more complicated stuff justice so they brought in Andy Sneap to play the tour. It sounds like Glenn has had a good amount of input on the next album despite his disease though so that's good. |
For some reason Firepower doesn't do much for me. Metal fans seem to love it a lot more than Redeemer so I'm the odd one out I guess.

From Nov '70 to Dec '71 I was stationed in the DMZ of South Korea at little Army airfield, Stanton AAF. We had a 2000' runway and about 60 helicopters and patrolled the 18 miles of the American section of the 38th parallel. I worked in the control tower. Besides the airfield the basic camp area was small, maybe 200 troops and an NCO club, a chapel that had records and turntables, a PX, a mess hall and our barricks.
Once on a normal weekday and I had just come out of the NCO club after a liquid lunch and the bright sunlight hit me and I heard this loud music, I thought it was a band playing. I walked about 100' to this one large concrete 3 story barricks that sat in the middle of the camp. I looked up and a window was open at the top and I could hear the music coming out of that window, I thought they can't have band in a little room up there. It was Deep Purple Child in Time Live and I could Ian Gillan screaming. I walked to the building and entered the first floor stairway and the music at that level was about how I would play it when I played it very loud. I went up to the second floor and now it was extremely loud. I walked up to the third floor and a bunch of Katusa's (Koreans Assigned to the US Army) were sitting on their beds holding their ears and looks like they were in a daze. I walked into this 2 man room and there was 6 large Pioneer 100 watt speakers on the wall and a 200 watt Pioneer amp turned full volume. Two GIs were standing there stoned and listening, to what I have no idea, it was just a solid wall of sound. I left and went about my day and that's how I always remember that song. I also got to see Deep Purple in 1972 in Savannah Georgia. I googled the camp and it closed in 2004, here's a photo of the camp now and the 3 story concrete building on the left. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pr...lqK4ISKUcSDN4t https://i1.wp.com/farm6.staticflickr...08%2C321&ssl=1 <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/OorZcOzNcgE" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

I think Dio would have been awesome doing Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and The Wizard. Too bad they never dug those out of the vault. Related:
