Machine Head was one of their best albums and I also love Fireball too. Great examples of the Ian Gillan & Roger Glover MkII era.

Interestingly under Zandit's Zodiac post from left field it would suggest I transition from Aries to Pisces?

The mother of one of the drummers in an early line up was into astrology big time and was fascinated that her son being pisces and me an aries could get along well with one another as that was not typical. She then dug a bit deeper into what time of day we were born as that had something to do with the 'house' we were born in, blah, blah, blah and it was through this analysis that she discovered a common thread that linked the two of us as compatible companions, something about both of us having sagitarius rising, whatever? Needless to say he was an awesome drummer and the best I have ever played with. Left handed too but played with a right hand setup thus giving him the benefit of a massive snare beat from his dominant hand. God knows where he is now. He was that good he could have been a session muso.
