If you haven't heard this album yet, it is good to know first that it doesn't sound like Deep Purple at all! Gillan was experimenting with jazz-rock circa 1976, so don't expect anything like "Black Night" or "Strange Kind of Woman", two of the veteran screamer's signature songs. What you're gonna find is careful arrangements with a full horn section, flutes, lots of keyboards (not the Purple Hammond, I think there are Fender Rhodes and early synths), latin percussion added to the rhythmic session, and a good guitar, sans distortion. Gillan's voice is in fine shape, but he releases his animal screaming power only in the song 3, "Money Lender". There are some extended instrumental passages, it's a record that requires patience to be fully enjoyed. Fans that only like heavy music will be alienated by the smoothness of some songs, but for those interested in discovering a less-known side of Gillan's career, CLEAR AIR TURBULENCE can be a treat. |
