It seems that Deep Purple have already caught on perfectly with the Belgrade audience, as they are coming to the capital of Serbia for the fourth time. They performed there for the first time in 1975, when they had only seven years of musical mileage behind them. Today, nearly fifty years later, Old Cats are considered one of the greatest and most influential rock bands of all time.
Deep Purple they are definitely one of those groups that our parents and even some grandparents know well. Many started rocking with them in 70s of the last century, when they were considered one of the best and most sought after rock bands. Fans all over the world have joined them with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath then known as the unholy trinity of the British hard rock and heavy metal, and in 1975 they entered the Guinness Book of Records as the loudest band in the world.
They're pretty fast Deep Purple began to experience many personnel changes. Various bands were labeled with "Mark" and numbers among fans and band members, but this in no way detracted from their success and the fact that they were influential of modern heavy metal and of modern hard rock, but their musical approach naturally changed over the years.
Unfortunately, they are not so loud that you can hear them all the way to Ljubljana, but we can go on a trip to Belgrade, which is their only outpost to promote their latest album Now What?! in this region and where the old sabers are coming for the fourth time, although they will be in Kombank Arena performed for the first time. Now What?! is the long-awaited album, which was released last April after an eight-year hiatus, and is the 19th in a row of all the pucks in the crimson purple's career. The band comes to us in formation Mark VIII, with a bassist Roger Glover, drummers to Ian Paic, with Don Airey on keyboards, s Steve Morse on guitar, and with a singer Ian Gillan at the head.
