Unpopular opinions
A few unpopular opinions of mine 💪🏼
Ok, I’ll start with a big one. David Coverdale for me has far more rocking voice than Ian Gillan. His voice at the MK3 time was tremendously good and Soldier of Fortune and Sail Away are an example. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate Gillan, however, I do enjoy Coverdale much more.
Burn is my favourite DP record. Machine Head is on second place for me. Am I the only one? Songs are all fantastic, Ritchie is on his prime and again Coverdale voice is fantastic. Fresh new air, love even the record cover image. I have probably a childhood attachment to this album for some reason (it was the first DP record I listened to) however after listening them all, I am of the same opinion.
Ok I might be banned for this. Don Airey is better than Jon Lord. I am not referring to the actual songs they created, of course there is no comparison, but I am talking on the solos and on the Live performances. Jon was good, but Don for me is way more technically brilliant. He also does experiment a lot and he was able to replace Jon Lord without any regret, I believe.
I am ready for the comments now 😅
