David Bowie announced his new album. On the other hand, Deep Purple, which haven’t released anything new since Rapture of the Deep (2005) show that they’re still motivated in making money from their glorious past. The bets are two “new” products. As usual, past discs reheated with the addition of some studio’s garbage.
The first announcement of the Hard Rock’s kings was the re-launch of a LP called Live in Paris 1975, with David Coverdale on vocals. The second one, even more frustrating and unnecessary, is a reprint of Slaves and Masters featuring two bonus tracks, a version of Loves Conquers All and Slow Down Sister.
With that, the band accumulates the “release” of 13 live albums (some of them were bootlegs formalized by the group) and 21 compilations (if I didn’t messed up the count). Those numbers are since 2005, the year of their last true release.
Chameleon is back! |
The good news, to abandon my grumpy side, is the return of the Chameleon! Ten years after Reality, his last studio album.
The question is if the brilliant David Bowie will be able to overcome the shadow of his terrific seventies albums. Anyway, the name was given: The Next Day. More information can be found on his official website.
Deep Purple, what about follow Bowie’s example?
