DEEP PURPLE (YOU...KEEP ON MOVING) MK4
To replace Blackmore, the true master of the Purple, Tommy Bolin is called in—an authentic young prodigy of the instrument, already known from Zephyr and James Gang as a replacement for Joe Walsh, with various illustrious collaborations, including his guitar work on Spectrum by Cobham. Bolin admits he doesn't know our music, but his creative flair is fantastic, and thus comes the birth of Come Taste the Band, which, in retrospect, is one of the most beloved albums by fans. The album is very beautiful and varied. The young Coverdale, Hughes, and Bolin are bursting with energy, while the seasoned Lord and Paice bring their usual great class. Unfortunately, Bolin and Hughes are devastated by drugs, especially the former, who is now a heroin addict and sometimes can't even stand on stage. It's a real shame because, in the available live performances from the tour on "good" nights, the show was fantastic—thus, Mark IV is born and dies. Sadly, just a few months later, Tommy Bolin also dies from an overdose.
