If anyone has a link to a review of Deep Purple by MK I would love to check it out, how intriguing!

The next issue of Uncut will probably have a Privateering review. It'll be interesting to see what they think of that. The old Shangri-La review they did was ridiculous - it's one of his best albums ever (Dire Straits included), I think.

I think it was his worst one.

Until KTGC came out.

Shangri-la is still one of my favourites and didn't deserve 2/10 from Uncut!  There are so many beautiful songs on that album.

Shangri-La is one of my favorites, KTGC is the last in my list (it's the one with the less knopflerian sound)

Well, I like KTGC, especially the Walzes, and there are some on it I think. And I LOVE PTM. But my favourite album of DS is OES (especially Fade to black) , and I know a lot people who say that this is the worst album of DS...maybe my taste is just different....

Mona, Fade To Black / Bluebird...  ;) 

I understand your affinity...

Interesting thoughts, and astonishing ones: Sorry, folks, but:
5:15 am, Boom, Like That, Sucker Row, Back To Tupelo, Song For Sonny Liston, Paraguaaaaaay, Donegan's Gone are a lot of great songs, which can't make Shangri-La a bad album from my point of view! Whereas KTGC is really an exceptional... other take on his music than usual... I rarely listen to it as a complete album, but some songs are nice, f.e. We Can Get Wild, and.... and.... hmmm...  ??? ::)

seen the article by mark on the deep purple show? noticed the picture of a man next to the text? recognised the man? :-)
good article.
also the part on mark/david is short but interesting.
thnx to my dutch friend who sent it to me.

OMG! Mark doing a review of a Purple show? Is this real or what???!!! How maNY freakin times i looked for a real link between my 2 favorite artists and finally this!This is for the history books! LOL. Anyone can read what he wrote cause i cant.....I just can understand the title......

So your quest is over ferguitar! Sorry that Jon Lord died! He will be missed.

I have dared to state this on another thread and Rollergirl and (I think) Val, almost crucified me. I listened to it repeatedly two days in a row, and I kind of changed my opinion. It is not such a bad album, but still on the bottom of my list. (except if you count ATR with Emyllou Harris)
By the way, I was listening to Punish the monkey on the radio the other day, and the intro sounded much like "On the beach" by Chris Rea. Anyone else spotted the resemblance?
About OES, it is the one that I heard as a fan upon it's release, so it was the one that gave me the biggest thrill. Still believe that a 45 minute album without the 3 hit singles (CE,The bug, HF, would be much much better. I just love Planet of NO, and the rest is such a mixture of different styles that you simply can't get bored.
Shangri La was another first for me. Found a promo of it 2 weeks before its official  release day in London and heard it in the apartment the same afternoon, after walking from Euston to the Battersea plant and back again from the other side of Thames, with stops at the palace and Brixton and many other places that I heard from songs. I don't know if I went by Abbey road that day...  It is however 3rd after TRD and STP.
Come on, it is not funny anymore.
