Steve Morse's guitar theme, originally written as a lullabye for his son, probably caused the original title. Though far from being a Scottish folksong, it's a totally new type of song for Deep Purple. Easy going, with a great melody added to the instrumental many of us knew. The song is seriously addictive unless you're of the kind that detests everything that's not True Metal. Should be a single, this is the stuff people might kick off on.
T urn the tape, and get ready for something completely different.
Ian Paice lays down a cool shuffle, Steve Morse spreads colour and Ian Gillan again concentrates on singing instead of screaming, and throws in some work on his lunch wrapper in addition. Really cool song, one of the best on the album, and the fattest sounding Hammond solo this side of god knows what thrown in for good measure. A sure winner. Anyway, those who miss the Ian Gillan from the latter albums, find him right here. Good track again, of course.
