Roger Glover did a series of phone-in interviews on American radio. These appear to have been arranged to promote the Hall of Fame induction broadcast due April 30 on US cable channel HBO.
He soldiered on through some “Mr Grover, Mr Gillian” moments without losing his usual wit and charm even for a second.
103.5 The Fox from Denver, Colorado:
92 KQRS, out of Minnessota (skip to 47:30 into the podcast):
WPYX 106 from Albany, NY:
Thanks to Nigel Young for the info.
Oh, the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune…!

April 23rd, 2016 at 21:54Roger has patience – the last interviewer was a disrespectful asshole. Asked Roger who the best lead singer was – Roger rightfully called the question ridiculous because it is ridiculous. Then the asshole launched into being told not to ask about Ritchie Blackmore only to ask another ridiculous question. What a moron. Great responses Roger! Thank You for posting The Highway Star!

I think doing these stupid interviews probably counts double.
