Συνεχίζοντας σε παλαιοροκάδικα μονοπάτια, ακολουθούμε τους Deep Purple στο πρόσφατο σχετικά άλμπουμ τους, Infinite. Από αυτό διαλέγουμε το εξαιρετικό, με συναρπαστικές instrumental κορυφώσεις & αντιπολεμικού περιεχομένου Birds Of Prey. Η μπάντα σ’αυτή την κυκλοφορία : Ian Gillian – φωνή, Steve Morse – κιθάρες, Don Airey – κίμπορντς, Roger Glover – μπάσο, Ian Paice – ντραμς. Ο ρόλος του παραγωγού (ημίθεου της κονσόλας) Bob Ezrin δεν μπορεί να τονισθεί αρκετά. 🔴 🔴 Carrying on down those classic old-school rock paths, we follow Deep Purple into their relatively recent album Infinite. From it we choose ‘Birds of Prey’, an excellent track, with thrilling instrumental climaxes & strong antiwar thematic. The contribution of producer Bob Ezrin (demigod of the mixing console) cannot be overstated. The band on this release : Ian Gillian – voice, Steve Morse – keyboards, Don Airey – keys, Roger Glover – bass, Ian Paice – drums

Alarm bells ringing clear
Break the calm before the fall
Bad news travels at the speed of flight
Good news not at all
And here we are again
Playing endless games of war
Birds of prey
Without a word of warning
We dive in to attack
Vengeful and self-righteous
We turn the blue sky black
And a wretched few escape
They’ll be forever looking back
At our sacrifice
And the golden sun is rising
At the dawn of a beautiful day
In the name of all that’s holy
In the name of history
In the face of life and nature
We are driven by belief
Our faith a crumbling fortress
Once perfect and sublime
Will fail again and rise again
Until the death
Until the death of time
