	PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY KEITH "MUZIKMAN" HANNALECK
		Nick Simper, formerly of Deep Purple, broke away from the rock legends and started a band of his own.
		It came as no surprise, however, that their sound is similar to the group that Simper had just left, although the subject matter is much darker.
		I liked the way Ashley Holt was pushed right out in front of their sound, kind of sitting on the very edge of Ged Peck's crunching guitar parts, not unlike Ian Gillan was for DP, and he sounds a bit like him as well.

		Nick and Pete were very dismissive of all this, and all three of us tended to demonstrate our rather jaundiced sense of humour which had been honed through years of work in backing bands.
		s an afterthought, Nick and I went on to play in Warhorse, and I understand that he is still playing gigs today (I met up with him last year after a near thirty-year gap).
		Pete, I hear, is somewhere in the Outer Hebrides, whilst I moved to classical guitar playing although at present am a college and university lecturer (who still plays classical and a bit of jazz).

		When Nick Simper was kicked out of the original Deep Purple in 1969, he must have been pretty upset.
		Apparently, the reason he was asked to leave was because the band didn't feel that his playing was heavy enough for the style they were trying to go for.
		Nick set out to do battle and prove his former bandmates were wrong and Warhorse was his vehicle.

		His first encounter was with Hammond organ player Jon Lord, then he persuaded session guitarist Ritchie Blackmore to return from Hamburg, Germany, to audition for the new group.
		Curtis himself, however, soon dropped out, but HEC Enterprises, as well as Lord and Blackmore, were keen that the project should continue, so firstly bassist Nick Simper, then finally vocalist Rod Evans and drummer Ian Paice (both of whom were from the group The Maze), were recruited.
		After these three albums and extensive touring in the States, Rod Evans and Nick Simper were unceremoniously sacked, and replaced by vocalist Ian Gillan and bassist Roger Glover both ex-Episode Six.

		With Nicky Simper (bass) of the original Deep Purple lineup as the founding member, it's little wonder that this album's work is very close to his former band.

		And so it was that the embryonic Deep Purple first came together as "Roundabout", with a loose line-up that included Blackmore (guitar), brothers Chris and Dave Curtis (vocals), Lord (keyboards), Nick Simper (bass), and Bobby Woodman (drums).
		At age 22, Simper was less experienced but had played in a number of short-lived '60s beat combos, most notable of which was Johnny Kidd & The New Pirates.
		"I was signing copies of the group's album which had Nick's face on it." Musically, Glover would provide the anchor the rest of the band needed, while Gillan's extravagant vocal style perfectly suited their new, adventurous musical approach.
