Steve Morse guest on new John Wetton album
Steve Morse plays guitar on the opening track “Lost For Words” on prog legend John Wetton‘s (King Crimson, Roxy Music, Uriah Heep, UK, Asia) new solo album “Raised in Captivity”. A short MP3 clip of the song is available here and a full stream of the song can be found on the Frontiers Records web radio.
Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
Can’t wait to hear this sounds interesting.

happy for him. John Wetton is a nice guy with good voice.
May 24th, 2011 at 22:37Deep Purple may be on the road right now but they’re also hard at work on a new album. Guitarist Steve Morse told us about how band’s first record since 2005’s Rapture of the Deep is coming along.
May 26th, 2011 at 14:27“Just a matter of weeks ago, we did all the pre-production and got all the material ready and it sounded really good. It’s sort of like a return to the roots is the way I would classify it. Both Ians were voting against something that was too clever, there was a big emphasis on roots type music.”
Deep Purple’s new album is due out next year but before then, they’ll perform here in America with a full orchestra, starting on June 3rd. Get all their dates at DeepPurple.com.
“Both Ians were voting against something that was too clever”
May 27th, 2011 at 12:08mmmmmmmmmm….I was looking for a clever album like Purpendicular was…the world is full of “non-clever music”…(and ‘clever’ is not self-indulgment but simply not predictable…)
So Steve and Don think think they can make “clever music”.
May 27th, 2011 at 21:59Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, maybe they think Ritchie did make compositions without class and refinement?
No use trying to convince a door knob of anything… read what you want into that, you will probably be wrong.
May 28th, 2011 at 22:30And Good Old Rog was for the “clever approach” as well?
What is “clever music” after all?
Things like “Herky Jerky” drums and all that?
May 28th, 2011 at 22:57Stop the Press!
John Wetton – played bass for my second favourite band of all time & they don’t even get a mention???????
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat’s the world coming to?
Any track from the ‘Bandstand’ LP has outstanding Bass playing – see how few notes John plays on the track ‘Burlesque’ & you’ll hear genious – ‘FAMILY’ were a better band for his contribution!
Steve Morse is in very good company!!!
May 31st, 2011 at 21:47@6, Steve and Don know they can make every type of music. And what would make you even give any kind of thought that they think Ritchie made compositions without class and refinement?!
I stopped trying to figure you out a loooooong time ago….
“The banjo player took a hike”, and what’s that composition I used to like?
Peace,
Ted
June 1st, 2011 at 13:04Both Ians were voting against something ……
(so the others didnt) : )
Something?
Something what?
A view held by the other members.
Other members in the band!!!
Its not difficult to understand that “the others” are Glover, Airey and Morse.
Simple deduction, Ted.
June 1st, 2011 at 23:40@11, And because of the musical genius of In A League Of His Own Steve, the broad musical horizon listener Roger, and the classically trained Don perhaps wanting to keep intense broad musical horizon ideas in the mix, it is going to keep the band from staying roots? The diplomacy in this band minus the banjo hiker is what keeps this great band together….
And all of you know it…. Leave all denial behind. It’s a healthier choice/way.
Such great fun. Tis gonna be a great album. It’s pure chemistry. Five great musicians can’t go wrong even if they were to decide to put a Purple disco record on out…. :>
Grab a clue, y’all!
Peace,
Ted
League of yer own, Sir Steve! My bad. Galaxy of yer own….!
June 3rd, 2011 at 01:48@ 12
Appearantly they let you listen to the new album?
Tell us some more, please. : )
June 3rd, 2011 at 21:53@13, Hopeful thinking!!!! :>
Peace,
Ted
