and going to the studio, which was something extra special and then records it and the costs evolved and everything. That’ s why Burning Sun was dedicated to Jon Lord who died maybe a week before we had a keyboard recordings for Burning Sun the longer version on The Straight out of hell. There were many Hammond organs present so I had that idea to maybe make a real Deep Purple Rainbow version whatever rather Deep Purple because Jon Lord was in the Purple not in Rainbow, as far as I know. So that is impact for me, it’ s like time travel when I listen to Burning Sun Hammond version it’ s how things could be even now days, how things could have been and it is really strange, too real. And I really like that version.
• Can we expect some live DVD material?
We have recently been furthering things at various locations where we like or where we were, like Wacken or Loud Park festival in Japan, and video recording took place and it seems that for the future that’ s got to be more of that, so I don’ t exactly know what’ s next thing is going to be because sometimes you don’ t want to know about concerts because, you know, you’ re under pressure so it’ s better you don’ t know.
Sometimes things has been recorded and the biggest thing must be Woodsock festival in Poland where we were playing for finally, let’ s say that, seven hundred and fifty thousand people. That was huge and it’ ll be filmed in HD final version and it’ s going to be one or other happening that’ s on DVD or Blu-ray. I’ m pretty much looking forward to that, and that we are in good shape, you know that magic drums over the crowd to the band, or the other way around or simultaneously, and if you have that on DVD of really good quality there are things to be proud of actually.
• Message for fans?
I’ m going to give you big hello and to the fans to the Bosnia and Herzegovina, naturally we also hope we’ ll come to the place close to you, near you and I haven’ t checked the schedule actually, maybe that day is already in there but you know at least we had this interview already. That indicated that maybe that would be some happening one day and we can’ t wait, I can’ t wait and I just want to get to as many interesting places as possible. So I hope you hang tight there where you are, have good time doing something you really like and maybe listening Straight out of Hell and like it maybe it’ ll fill your time and maybe you can play to your friend and they’ ll say they don’ t like it or they’ ll love it, and you know more until then, thanks for the interview. Bye Bye.
