http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.11369&rws=%2Fian-gillan%2Ftop-tracks.rssAs lead singer for both Deep Purple and late-period Black Sabbath, Ian Gillan stands tall among Metal vocalists, with only Robert Plant and Ozzy Osbourne as true rivals/colleagues. He has always been something of a cross between the two, with a voice that's more refined and masculine than Robert Plant's grave-robbing blues squeal and capable of operatic heights. Yet Gillan's voice inhabits the outer fringes of Ozzy territory -- conflicted, beefy and evil. His solo records have traditionally covered the same ground as Deep Purple, with a couple of poorly received transgressions into Jazz Rock. But Deep Purple most recent albums -- particularly <i>Abandon</i> in 1998 and <i>Bananas</i> in 2003 -- have been gratifyingly songful and idiosyncratic. And Gillan's 2009 solo album <i>One Eye To Morocco</i> follows suit, working Afro-Caribbean rhythms and Middle Eastern ideas into surprisingly tuneful, if not especially heavy, rock. - Mike McGuirkMetalen720Wed, 25 Nov 2009 01:32:12 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.11369&rws=%2Fian-gillan%2Ftop-tracks.rss As lead singer for both Deep Purple and late-period Black Sabbath, Ian Gillan stands tall among Metal vocalists, with only Robert Plant and Ozzy Osbourne as true rivals/colleagues.
