  • Garth Rockett & The Moonshiners was a short lived band fronted by Ian Gillan of Deep Purple fame back in the 60s. In 1989 Gillan collected some 2nd rate musicians plus his friend Steve Morris and did a 20-date UK tour. It was made for fun rather than for a good start to a solo career, as it was when Gillan was fired from Purple. The band does its best. It's not a 1st class performance but it's good to see Gillan having fun and performing some good oldies or old goodies. Steve Morris is a very fine guitar player, a very underrated one and Gillan's voice is in a good shape on that one though not as good as on the following video from the 'Naked Thunder' tour next year. A must see for all Gillan/Purple fans.
