After a few spins of Infinite (released today!), I'm impressed. This is a very good rock album.
Good writing, playing and production. Gillan is pretty good, too
I like this one better than their 80s albums
Thanks for the first "review". I'll have to buy it yet, but got myself tickets for the
show in Amsterdam this june. Mostly out of curiosity, but they're a bunch of nice guys
and good musians, so what can go wrong?
(Well not enough lady fans around, that can go wrong, I am afraid).

Interestingly enough, when Deep Purple was conceived and initially they were to be called Roundabout, the plan was to have a cast of rotating musicians and not a permanent lineup so they have pretty much lived up to that concept!

Hairball -If I may impose my opinion on you and others. I too am a big fan/advocate of Blackmore and Lord. And completely agree about their influence and importance in the band. Even still and it's damn hard to do sometimes I put all this aside and give the 2 new guys a chance. For me this has paid off as they are both great players in their own right. Also, it's a great band these days. Give them a chance. If not you're short changing yourself in my opinion. Also I would like to add Ritchie is in my top 3 favorite guitar players. Plus Jon Lord is my favorite Keyboard Player period. Believe me I feel you!

+ they released great stuff with the Mark III and IV lineups.
I love Blackmore as well.
