Deep Purple - The Surprising

DEEP PURPLE are setting sails into new waters with their first ever animated video.

The official video for “The Surprising”, one of the fan favourites from the international success “inFinite”, takes the viewer on a journey through the magical fifty year history of the band. With high attention to detail, the animated masterpiece follows the five heroes of our story Ian Gillan, Ian Paice, Roger Glover, Don Airey and Steve Morse that through a stormy ship cruise full of allusions and sees them riding off into the sunset.

The video has been directed and illustrated by Matt Rooke alongside director Peter Rogers who also produced the video together with Craig Hooper and Collin Games, known from the Deep Purple movie documentary “From Here To inFinite”.

Deep Purple - Johnny's Band

"Johnny’s Band" is brand new Video and Single by rock legends DEEP PURPLE have been released.

The song is taken from DEEP PURPLEs latest album “inFinite”, which has been released on April 7th 2017.

The song is an affectionate portrait of a fictional band that quickly gain success and enjoy every side that comes with it. As often happens, JOHNNYs BAND can´t help but lose it, and break up, only to find out later that the pleasure still to be performing live is all that matters, even when the hype, the success and the glory have long vanished. In their minds, they are still playing the sold out big venues.

The video has been scripted and directed by Craig Hooper and Collin Games, known from the Deep Purple movie documentary “From Here To inFinite”.

A collector’s edition single including previously unreleased live songs will be released by earMUSIC in July. The single will also be available digitally.

DEEP PURPLE are currently touring the world on their “inFinite – The Long Goodbye Tour”, playing in front of thousands of excited fans and, for the first time, presenting songs from their ground breaking album “inFinite”, among them also “Johnny’s Band”.

Deep Purple - All I Got Is You

DEEP PURPLE have released a new video for “All I Got Is You,” the second single from their upcoming album "Infinite".

The clip features behind-the-scenes performance footage from a 97-minute documentary about the making of the album titled "From Here to Infinite", which will be included as part of the limited-edition CD/DVD version of "Infinite".

Singer Ian Gillian, drummer Ian Paice, bassist Roger Glover, guitarist Steve Morse and keyboardist Don Airey can be seen entering a Nashville recording studio to commit the track to … well, we used to say tape, but it looks like a hard drive is what’s actually being used here.

The “All I Got Is You” single, featuring four bonus recordings, will be revealed in both digital and physical formats on March 10.

"All I Got Is You" Ep Track Listing

1. "All I Got Is You" (album version)
2. "Simple Folk" (a solo guitar improvisation by Steve Morse)
3. "Above And Beyond" (previously unreleased instrumental version)
4. "Time For Bedlam" (first take from the album recording)
5. "Highway Star" (previously unreleased live version)

"Infinite" arrives in stores on April 7. The band released a lyric video for the track “Time for Bedlam” back in January. What they describe as possibly, but not definitely, their final tour hits the U.S. in August on a triple bill that also features Alice Cooper and Edgar Winter.

Today's tune “All I Got Is You” captures the purest Purple classic sound in 4 ½ minutes while staying well away from the temptation to be nostalgic or to “play themselves”.
