OFF: The MTV generation

[William Duffy]

I cannot remember exactly what it's like, as I never really got into the
Coverdale\Hughes era as much, so I haven't heard it for a long time. What I
do remember though is that Blackmore was quite right in leaving after
Stormbringer (which was too funky, as he put it), but I think Come Taste The
Band was slightly better.

In other words, the 2nd worst Purple album, in my view.

PS Saw the band at that stage partly out of loyalty, partly because it was
obvious it was their last tour for a long, long time.
