    • Deep Purple is often considered to be the pioneers of both heavy metal and modern hard rock and the band featured some of the greatest rock singers in all of rock history.

    I’m going to compare Ian Gillan, David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes alongside one another and I want to hear your thoughts! Who do you think did it better? Share with me in the comments!

    Ian Gillan essentially wrote the book on hard rock and we’ll examine his approach as we compare it alongside Coverdale’s who took over as frontman with little previous experience.

    We’ll also look at Glenn Hughes and see where he stood in the mix as I explore his soulful, wide-ranging voice and what he added to the band.
