Paice is truly among the most elite of rock drummers, if not at the very top. And what's more, he doesn't have a massive ego. That's somebody worthy of my respect any day of the week. I love his response: "We copied others before us, so others copying us is just a natural progression." So true. He may be among the best rock drummers in history, but he is perfectly willing to show us how to play like him, as evidenced by several videos of him on here. Great guy.
Talkin' bout chest hair, talkin' bout crazy gold medallions! Great clip from the Barry Gibb Talk Show!! Seriously, though, two very talented musicians and it's easy to see why Rick had his own TV show later, he's very relaxed in front of a camera.
BERLIN (Reuters) – A German court has ordered former Thin Lizzy guitarist Gary Moore to pay damages after ruling the guitar solo in his 1990 hit "Still Got the Blues" had been plagiarized from a German song written in 1974.
A court in the southern city of Munich said on Wednesday the solo in Moore's song was too similar to the one in "Nordrach" by the band Jud's Gallery not to have been copied
Nice interview! Wakeman has a good rapport with his guests, encouraging honest and insightful answers, even when he's not asking the most interesting questions ("How did you get the name Purple?" etc).
The musical portion was a bit of a let-down. Paice really stole the show, as Rick seems unable to have come up with anything approaching a good melody or riff for some reason. Still, though ... great to see.
This is indeed great stuff - even though I have always been very much into the Purple members' solo stuff I had no idea about this Paicey & Wakeman thing.
Only thing I disagree with is the beginning of what this guy said. The late '60s and early '70s where drummers made names for themeselves...yes Paice and Palmer were certainly two of them but not the only two...people copied John Bonham every bit as much. Ginger Baker, Keith Moon, Mitch Mitchell. Lots of drum legends that emerged during that time, the likes of which we have yet to see again.
...according to Ian's statement: "..if I don't enjoy it, I don't play well" , ' Come Taste the Band' must have been great times, even though he says the chemistry wasn't there,
Ian Paice...one of my favorite drummers, and in my opinion, definitely one of the best rock drummers if not THE best. Great to see him talk. I would love to take some lessons from him.
Ian Paice is a total bad ass drummer.Incredible.Check out Deep Purple DVD Live 72/73,Smoking!

Chas Cronk.
Wakeman used him and drummer Tony Fernandez as the studio band on Gastank. Both played with Strawbs, as of course did Wakeman, though much earlier.

5*! To me the interview was worthy since my main "teacher" was Ian Paice. But the music after it - Rick Wakemen - is quality as well.
Thank!!!
