A poignant final act from Dallas Good in collaboration with Richard Reed Parry, leaving us with a melancholic album, beautiful, sad and thought-provoking.There’s something quietly arresting about this new record by Dallas Good and Richard Reed Parry.

The light may be fading for Ian Gillan, but that doesn’t mean Deep Purple’s fireball is fizzling out. He insists that talk of retirement – broached in interviews last year but rowed back since – is premature. “Someone connected it with my failing eyesight, but I don’t see how that’s going to ever stop me singing,” Gillan tells Uncut today. “I will retire or stop when I haven’t got the strength to do it, or when it becomes embarrassing. I won’t just keep going for the sake of it. So when people give me a slap and say, ‘Oi, off…
