Some of the comments on Blabber said the playing was weak too, I didn't agree with that. Sure it wasn't JP quality but they wrote it and they have played it forever, for me the let down is, as usual, Thom. He started out almost as if he was trying to emulate Rob, then in the lead up to the chorus he sounded like he was trying to be himself, then he got to the chorus and seemed to forget who he was trying to be.

I always like to hear what Marty is doing but buying an album of mostly shredding by him or anyone else just doesn't appeal to me any more...and I bought Tokyo Jukebox!

Yeah it's a classic Deep Purple album, they are re-inventing anything, they aren't trying to be something they aren't, they are just playing the classic rock they are known for.

Technically it might be good, the guy might have the skills, but it's not something I could see myself putting on to listen too.
I'm having trouble telling which is Thom and which is Jason McMaster. I kind of expected more with Jason.
I don't have his latest studio album yet. But I have the one before and I have the new live album. I think they are both really good. For whatever reason I'm almost never bored listening to Marty. And damn do they sound good live. Lot's of energy.
I really only know the hits (mostly), but I always liked them.
Does he have a lame singer? Or is it instrumental? I'll give it a shot if there's no singer.

Yeah I'm not sure Jnr and Thom are bringing out the best in anybody. Whether that is deliberate or just the way they produce I don't know.
I just went to the EMP website to check on the track listing for the album and their website has been hacked/compromised. It's got a redirect bug on it, doesn't redirect every user every time but when it does it redirects to some shitty scam competition that renders the back button useless by loading the page multi times in the background and it keeps telling the viewer to click yes on some question I didn't read because I knew how to bypass. It's a common hit and one that probably should be reported to EMP but honestly until Dave gets rid of Thom I'm not sure I want too

I agree his live stuff is really good, as is most of his stuff, I just don't find myself leaping to those sort of records when I want something to listen too any more. I probably should put some of them in the car and use them as a calming influence on the road to combat all the dickheads, but where is the fun in driving if you can't yell at other people

Deep Purple were pigeon holed a lot by Smoke On The Water, not that it's a terrible song but it's only one song. Songs like Woman From Tokyo, Child In Time, Lazy and many others are great songs and the current album has songs in that vein rather than Smoke On The Water.

You're putting the two other people who go there for the album at risk!! Lol, kinda make me want to go there and see what my security does.Yeah I'm not sure Jnr and Thom are bringing out the best in anybody. Whether that is deliberate or just the way they produce I don't know.

You're right. I expect more from some of these people.
