Some from Blackmore's-Night. Should be good. He did a RARE interview for the new GP magazine.

I like Blackmore's Night (and the "Night" portion is rather easy on the eyes too!).

Hi,
 
It's nice to see this once in a while, but somehow, I find that many of these is simply another chance to catch a few more dollars, out of it all.
 
Best of luck to them, but that was never my type of music, and they have a right to play it and get audiences all excited about the loudness.

I doubt that is the case with Blackmore. It's not his style, then again maybe so. They are filming. I don't think there is anything wrong with making a little more money, do you?

When it comes to art Pedro thinks money is a sign of a sellout or it is not art he cares about (because it makes money).

Incorrect. gosh, that would be like punishing my sister in Paris and 40 some years of being an artist and doing shows all over Europe, and selling her works.
 
I don't know ... I think that I have that idea that some folks have had their 15 minutes, and they want more ... I'm actually OK with that, but I do not think that it defines art by any stretch of the imagination. It's like asking Picasso to paint the blue or the rose period again, at the show, and you know he is going to give you a finger and leave the room! 
 
I (sometimes) do not feel that these people have evolved musically, but yeah ... that is what I feel, and I agree that it may not be the truth.

That's pretty doubtful since he's been dead for over 40 years...
