What The Artist things about: "This Time Around"
Tero Honkasalo
Around/Pre-DP release:
from DC's BBS: "We're just gathering info to give to my eager-beaver legal
team...As this was before I was signed to DP, I personally don't know at
this time what we can do about it...I would think that even as an
individual, they would need mine, as well as the other participants,
permission to release these 'demo's'...Would'nt you???...Anyway, my lawyers
are the 'tits', so, let us see what the future holds...To me it's just
another 'distraction'...more of my 'past' rearing it's questionable head, to
try and take my focus away from the present and future plans I'm making...No
fear...I'm moving on, regardless...Let them scrape the floor for their
pennies an' ha'pennies, nickels and dimes...//SNIP//...mmm...This 'bootleg
stuff is beginning to piss me off...Anyway, it screams volumes to me that
what were once actual 'bootlegs' are now being released by a 'legitimate'
source, such as Purple Records...They aught to be ashamed of themselves..."
I wonder what DPAS people think about this?????
I wonder why Simon Robinson & co. can't do a proper deal with Mr Coverdale
(Hughes, Paice, Lord, Blackmore.....) - since David has told that he has a
lot's of unreleased Whitesnake live-material (perhaps there's DP stuff
too????)....I think releasing that material would make pennies for everyone.
just my thoughts....:)

something different. At least I think that is the most beautiful Purple song
ever. And it would be interesting to hear Coverdale sing it. :o)

What a load of cobblers!! DC fans haven't exactly been treated well by
the CD
reissue age, have they? And what exactly is this old product distracting
from
anyway? If he so badly wants current action why doesn't he get his head
out of Lake Tahoe and start touring!?!?!?! That last album is his
strongest in many years and yet he's not exactly showing it off much, is
he? Great voice, shame about the politics.

yes, I was wondering as well. can't remember having seen it on the
TLA FAQ.

BBS=Bulletin Board System. It used to be the poor man's Internet
before everyone got on the net and the little I saw it, the discussion
areas looked very much like Usenet. For a while there was BBS gateways
to Usenet but I don't know if they are around anymore. There were also
file areas on some BBSes where you could download and upload files.
You accesses these BBSes by calling them.
Nowadays a BBS seems to be any kind of message board on the net. It's
confusing if you've seen the old BBSes. I thought Coverdal had set up
an old school BBS in his house... I can see his phone lines burning...
He he.

Depends what he signed at the time. I don't know enough about the
record industry to know what's in the contracts he was under at the
time, but it wouldn't surprise me if somebody else had the rights
to this material and that Coverdale's permission isn't needed.

That's bollocks. This isn't going distract at all from what he's doing
these days. It's not even in his name. Does he really think the release
of this album is going to have any effect on whether or not people buy
"Into The Light"? If so, he's mad.

Now that's unfair, and thoroughly nasty. It seems pretty obvious to me
that DPAS/RPM/Purple Records have always done the releases they've done
out of love for the music, and out of the desire to get this music out
to other fans who also love it. Obviously, this is an important part of
DP history - does he actually think that it's better for it *not* to be
available to fans?
I'm a fan of Coverdale's, but here he's being an arsehole. He owes the
DPAS guys an apology.

It sounds from his comments that he's opposed to anything from his past
being released. I'd guess this means he'd have no interest in doing a
deal with *anyone* to release archive stuff.

I gave up on Cov in the mid 80s, but when I got the Northwinds remaster it
prompted me to give ITL a go. In the same way, hearing the Government tracks
might well jog others into giving him another chance.
