Our Take
Brighton's own Deep Purple frontman turned solo artist Ian Gillan is back with a reissue of his 1979 masterpiece, "Mr Universe." Celebrating its 40th anniversary, this Record Store Day 2019 release is a must-have for fans of classic rock and those looking to expand their vinyl collection.
From the opening track "Second Sight" to the epic closer "Message in a Bottle," Gillan's powerful vocals and the band's tight instrumentation shine through on this record. The remastering brings out new details in the sound that were previously unheard, making for a fresh listening experience even for longtime fans.
One highlight of this release is the bonus disc featuring rare live tracks and unreleased demos. These raw recordings capture the energy and spontaneity of Gillan's live performances, showing off his charisma and stage presence in a way that studio recordings simply can't match.
Overall, "Mr Universe" stands the test of time as a classic of the rock genre. Gillan's songwriting and performance are as vibrant and engaging as ever, making this 40th anniversary edition a must-have for any record collection. So grab your copy, turn up the volume, and let Gillan take you on a wild ride through the universe of rock 'n' roll.
