I thought that he was good fit in Kansas, a lot of what they did had a bit in common with what he did with the dregs but yeah, he's the proverbial square peg in a round hole in deep purple IMHO. I've tried to get into what he's doing there but it just isn't working for mecupcaketwins":2tjf5ttv said:Gainzilla":2tjf5ttv said:That guy is such a badass player and all around nice guy but I have to tell you, I cant stand him in Deep Purple.

He was best w/ the Dregs and his own Steve Morse Band. Like oil and water in Deep Purple![]()

I have the one "bananas" or something like that and it's really good. Whenever I see recent footage, he appears to be having a good time with the guys in the band. On the sad side, he's probably forced to play a lot of the old Deep Purple hits because with modern radio and everyone stuck in the past -nobody seems to want to hear new stuff. Kinda like how Iron Maiden keeps releasing new music, but does entire tour sets based on earlier work.

I guess I should clarify... Bananas and Rapture of the deep are cool and Steve sounds great on those. HOWEVER, The minute they go into the old Blackmore stuff, I dont like it at all..
Ive been a fan of Deep Purple since I was a kid so the old stuff is important to me. As good as Bananas and Rapture of the deep sound, it just isnt Deep Purple to me.
