The 'Chief" Answers your Questions Part 7

[@CRUSHPOWER]

I can listen Mr.Paice all day long...Always interesting.

[@piotrcienciala2418]

Small price to pay for the life the volume had given me - that's really impressive! All the best to you, Ian!

[@ovaisnaqvi1965]

Beautiful honest comments about his hearing loss. He’s a gem of a guy. ❤️

[@peterhlinka4789]

To the man I first picked up a pair of sticks because of at the age of 12, some 50yrs ago. You were slogging it out in the trenches when I wanted to toss in the towel. I'm still here. Cheers Mate!

[@damon9408]

The drums on Burn are jaw dropping.

[@zebraxasscreamin5357]

theres a girl drummer named Sina that impresses Ian with Burn... amazing talent

[@astrogoodvibes6164]

Every time I listen to a Deep Purple cut, I play it twice, once to hear the track and a second time to just listen to Maestro Paice to enjoy the ferocity and energy of a consummate artist. Ritchie, Jon, Gillan, Coverdale, Hughsie and Morsie all have their strengths but the explosively expressive engine of rock will always be Ian Paice.

[@Marcel4302]

THANKS FOR ANSWERING MY QUESTION IAN!!! -MARCEL

[@tehnagabakti]

I love this man. I could listen to him talk about music and his approach to it all day. I'm a black metal guitarist but it's so enlightening and inspiring to hear his perspective. Plus I love DP of course. Glad we still have a few of the true old guard rock and roll forefathers around and kicking. One of the all time greats.

[@hamishanderson6738]

And such a gentleman

[@roberthead375]

I really enjoy this series. As much as I like the And The Address story, I’m even more excited to hear there may be another Deep Purple record. Really enjoy Whoosh and the thought of more is great :)

[@kangooroo1]

Thanks for the sincerity. Thanks for the sacrifice! ''In Rock'' is the first real Hard Rock/Heavy Metal album in history. Thank you for EVERYTHING.

[@timallison8560]

we love you ian! thank you for EVERYTHING.

[@deppurple700]

Mr Paice seems like a really nice down to earth and great drummer wish I could have met him someday he is one of my favorite drummers besides Bonham and Billy Ward

[@ralphwilliams7764]

Thankyou Ian. Your comments about not planning the "BURN" drum structures was so insightful. As an old ex- drummer of pensionable age I was struck by memories of playing live years ago and needing to try things spontaneously, in line and to compliment the playing of other guys around me. It was something felt rather then thought about, as you say, in the moment. Thankyou once again. Coming from a great master drummer like yourself it validated something I tried to workout in my own life many years ago. carry on your drumtribe input.

[@pauldoe3434]

Ian my favorite drummer and see purple I love you keep rocking

[@dashriprock5720]

My hearing is just fine, and I still can't figure out what the hell my wife is talking about.

[@Alex-vi2wl]

Ha good one ;)

[@bettygonzalez3642]

I never knew my late husband played with his left hand -- even though were were married for many years-- he had a thick mexican accent-- I always thought he was saying " eat in peace "-- he was saying Ian Paice-- we were complete opposites-- to say the least-- Thank you Ian Paice for letting me share this-- my late husband Juan Antonio -- listened and practiced many hours -- now our grandson Juju-- plays with his left hand --

[@tieukhavu8832]

And the Address sounds great either on first album "Shades of Deep Purple" from 1968 or on the recent album "Whoosh" from 2020.

[@dariogiordano4371]

Thank you Ian for answering to my question !!! It was so amazing to hear you pronouncing my name ! 😉

[@michaelzagon7417]

Ian Paice the reason why i startet to be a drummer many moons ago

[@noriakisanto]

Thank you very very much for your answer to my question! I am so happy. So happy and I will keep on rocking and rolling! I can not sleep tonight. Thank you so much again. I will come to UK for Deep Purple tour in 2021!

[@robs639]

Very classy man, technical and tasteful player. “Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.”

[@stephanfuchs7891]

It's a pleasure to hear and see you talking. Thank you, Mr Paice. Allways. My Grandpa had that trouble with hearing. He could not understand what people around at dinner were saying. But he very well understood what he was not meant to hear! So we can expect another record from Deep Purple and a tour. Great! Love you guys. Stay Healthy, you and your families.

[@daveh9335]

Thanks for posting good sir. Always interesting and informative

[@1rua]

Thanks for making these video's Ian. They're always interesting and have helped to keep us all going during this difficult year! Thanks for the great music and drumming over the years. Great to hear DP still producing quality music. Good on ya!

[@randysvynil9502]

Excited and happy about the making of their 22nd studio album!!!

[@foto-dk]

Ian... Trusty and respectful as always! In my opinion you Are THE drummer of the world. I am a out your age, I cannot play the drums, I have played guitar for a out 50 years - sharing the same feeling that sometimes It's working and sometimes it is not, but I will never ever have the chance to play with someone like you. Hope to meet you one day! Merry Christmas to you and you family! Kind Regards, Jan

[@DrummingMan1]

Chief! You are one classy man! Thank you!

[@grobbler1]

3:05 The most important lesson for anyone.

[@guillearacenag]

Mr. Paice, you are number one of my three drummers who I admire for years, followed by Clive Burr and Nicko Mc. Brain. I will die with the idea that with "Fireball" you become the FATHER of innumerable possible drummers of Power Metal, Speed ​​Metal, Symphonic Metal, Proggresive Metal, some of Thrash Metal and Heavy Metal, etc., etc. ., etc., 🤗. I propose you for "Living Human Monument" or "Human Art Reserve" .👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏. Greetings from Chile🇨🇱.MASTER!!!!.

[@truepurple3760]

I also was curious about your medallion. I’m glad someone asked!

[@yuddimaja1827]

4 & 5 December are both special days in Indonesia for Puple's fans. On 4 & 5 December 1975 Deep Purple showed in Jakarta Indonesia.

[@dwntgrnd]

Oh, I so hope you guys do another... please!

[@drumsanddrumming]

Thanks for all the fascinating tellings!

[@sfeigh]

Another enjoyable session.

[@stephenscicluna5216]

What a mine of information (not to mention musical talent and inspiration) this man is. The idea of having "And the address" to bookend Deep Purple's studio career was a brilliant one (had Whoosh been the band's final album). If a new album is indeed recorded (fingers of both hands and toes of both feet crossed) could perhaps the band consider an instrumental medley with bits covering all the eras of the band?

[@sebastianalvarez9199]

Buenísimo

[@gerrydrums3945]

Same Same with the hearing loss, bass off and treble up on all appliances, have a great day, stay safe and love n peace !!

[@TheNaboen]

brilliant!

[@905Alive]

Ian, thank you so much for being so candid and honest, so many people are full of shit, especially when it comes to their hearing and how to play songs, I've been drumming since 1971 and I wish I had been somewhat kinder to my ears, I think one thing drummers can do is ensure and fight to set the kit slightly behind the amps, and have good monitors. You guys are still the loudest band I ever saw, on the Perfect Strangers tour you did a show in New Haven, Ct at the coliseum, the place had structural issues and the lower level parking area had been closed off for years because it buckled, that's why they were nets way above the people if you recall seeing them, you guys had cement chips coming down and my tinnitus started that night. As to the gent who wanted to know how to play Burn, play it from your gut man, and your heart, it's one of those songs that fills roll through the verse melodically. I CAN'T STAND DRUMMERS ON KZbin THAT COPY PEOPLE EXACTLY, BIG DEAL, show me what YOU can invent, the verse in Burn is indeed the hardest part and you can over think it, just play it straight keeping time and gradually increase the fills, I make a pattern so the first is just snare/tom work, the 2nd is flams, 3rd is around the kit and 4th is like the snare build up Ian did that follows the "wave of her hAAAANNNNDDDdddd". Did you ever notice that when you see a great band live they don't do a song exactly as it is on the album? Improvise

[@AlbertEinsteinSpock]

43:29 was the album length.

Thank you🍀

hello paicey! have a great day. my favorite drummer

[@guillaumechabason9606]

Hello Ian If you were to have your own jazz band, with which musicians would you like to play with ?

[@nicodrumsheaven]

Maestro ian paice 💜🎶🔝dp

[@rallison4789]

Today Leland Sklar told us about a request of you to play on songs. Do you plan to share them here, or are they going to be on an album? Greetz from Germany, stay safe, your Paderborn drumtech Ralli.

[@ronvalentini5514]

ian see what you think of this guitar version of burn. punch in sylvya deep purple burn. i know its not drums but i dabble in drums and i found this,,,amazing what we find on you yube

[@NachoDeepPurple]

THANK you Ian, what do you think that is the best playing you ever recorded in a Purple álbum? Not a single song, but all the record.

[@raymondrodriguez9389]

Seasons Greetings Chief!!! I'm really curious on your statement about the songs being included and excluded from the set list. If it came down to it, What 10 song set list with 2 encores would you want to play? All those albums with great songs and it's brought down to just the 12 selected. What would they be?

[@voneeto]

Where do you get your inspiration for your music? P.S. Really enjoyed meeting you and signing a stick that I caught years ago. Thanks for all the great music !

[@bartrobinson2103]

Thanks again for another wonderful presentation. I was wondering did you ever meet Jimi Hendrix or Mitch Mitchell?

[@tempusfugit9796]

It's sad that you never got to meet Neil peart. He was an intelligent man as well as a brilliant drummer, just like yourself. He actually mentioned you as one of his influences in one of his drumming DVDs.

[@stefanwendholt410]

It's only Rock'n'Roll but I Like it (Rolling Stones)

[@FuturePast2019]

Q "Why didn't you play 'Flight of the rat", 'Living Wreck' or 'Hard Loving Man' rather than Wring That Neck and Mandrake Root for 30 minutes. (Live in Stockholm 1970 etc) PS 'Hard Loving Man' was played on tour a few years ago.

[@EdubertoPalitroke]

"It's only rock n' roll". Ian Paice might be the single most underrated guy in rock (should I say 'music'?) history.

[@peterhlinka4789]

Popularity means only so much. You've gotta dig a little deeper w to get to the good stuff, and so be it.

[@micowikstrom7182]

Where do I have to write if I'd like to ask something from Ian?

[@siskokidd]

Hearing loss: Videos exist of Brian Johnson and Paul Stanley (plus other non-famous people) getting help for their hearing loss issues. Ian likely knows exactly what I'm talking about.

[@piotrwysocki8650]

Halo Sir Chief! Did you ever hear John Bonzo Bonham playing live, if yes, did you have the awareness, that he is one of the best drummers ever, as you are Sir?

[@grobbler1]

Bonzo was a heath robinson machine, but Paicey was crisper and had the 'swing.'

[@guillermo3564]

"Probably working" says the man who's had a steady job for 55+ years, 44 of those years with the same employer.

[@peterhlinka4789]

Guillermo, remember, he's now the only original member (RIP Jon) so in a way, he's self employed.

[@crispyrobot77]

..but I like it.

[@awesomearizona-dino]

Good Morning

[@delorangeade]

There's always an interesting contrast to be drawn between those musicians who insist on recreating their parts note for note, including those who want to copy them, and those who just like to wing it, as long as it works. I guess Purple has been dominated by the latter approach, and it's part of the great appeal of the band for me. I'm the same way. I can't understand the desire to fret over every detail, as though nothing else will do.

[@guillermo3564]

@delorangeade right on. it's all about playing what feels good and everyone having a good time. Improv makes a live show a special event. People that want to hear everything "just like the record" have no sense of adventure.

Hopefully you haven't had a brush with mr Covid, but your breathing sounds like you might've. Tough times for us all now, but next year or more likely 2022, we'll gather again rocking our hearts out.

Off House blue lite insert you can see that Uncle Paicey plays or is sponsored by vince gutmans marc system. wtf is that? Doesnt the drums on this lp sounded the greatest of all time in purple long.career
