May 3, 2023 · Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore was never shy about citing the influence of his peer, Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, even if he occasionally accused the band of stealing his sound. “I was impressed with what Zeppelin did,” Ritchmore explained to Classic Rock. “I wanted to do that kind of stuff, and if it doesn’t take off, we ...
Oct 25, 2018 · We can think of a few reasons why this is so. 1stoff, Led Zeppelin’s lineup never changed. Even today, Robert Plant refuses to reunite with the other surviving members because it was over after drummer John Bonham died. But for Deep Purple, they changed their most successful lineup even bringing in Glenn Hughes to replace bassist Roger Glover.
One more reason is the internet: believe it or not, the online world still very much revolves around the US; most important Youtube music channels are run by Americans (and maybe Canadians).

Sep 6, 2024 · Actually, it’s a minor surprise that Deep Purple made it past Mk VIII. In 2017 they announced The Long Goodbye tour in support of that year’s Infinite album . “It may be the last big tour,” Ian Paice said, suggesting that the Purple juggernaut, rumbling along in one form or another for a large chunk of the previous 50 years, was nearing the end of the road.

Well, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath were the big three that influenced an entire genre, so there’s that.
