IAN GILLAN &
TONY IOMMI: WhoCares Album Details Revealed
DEEP PURPLE's Ian Gillan and
BLACK SABBATH's T
ony Iommi took everybody by surprise in 2011 by releasing a charity single:
'Out Of My Mind', renewing the collaboration that led the pair recording th
e Black Sabbath album
Born Again in 1984. None other than
Jason Newsted (METALLICA),
Jon Lord (ex-Deep Purple),
Nicko McBrain (IRON MAIDEN) and Linde Lindström (H.I.M.) supported the two rock legends. Not only jamming together for the shear fun of things, this new project has united for a cause - rebuilding and helping the music school in Gyumari, Armenia. The single was a joyful and inspired moment. Iommi and Gillan have now decided to make WhoCares an album for their devoted fans. Classic songs and a lot of rarities and unreleased material in two-CDs of fantastic rare music. This is much more than a Gillan solo album or a Deep Purple anthology – this is a real collector’s item and must have for every Ian Gillan and Tony Iommi fan.
The album is set to release on July 13th.
