Roger can sing
Not many of even the die hard fans know that Roger Glover actually has a beautiful singing voice (quite understandably, because he uses it in public so rarely). Here is an example from all the way back in 1966. It is an unreleased demo acetate of him singing his own song called Afterwards.
Thanks to Nigel Young for the info.
Sounds a bit like Ringo.
August 9th, 2020 at 15:27He sang a few songs on his latest solo album, didn’t he?
August 9th, 2020 at 15:50Listen his solo album from 1984. He sang every song on it.
August 9th, 2020 at 20:13MM: you’re absolutely right, i completely forgot about that one…
August 9th, 2020 at 21:57Uhm… The Mask?? The Guilty Party?
August 10th, 2020 at 00:17ROGER GLOVER DEBERIA HACER MEJOR LA SEGUNDA VOZ EN DEEP PURPLE, porque en vivo le bajan mucho el volumen y casi no se escucha su voz. Hoy en dia Ian Gillan necesita apoyo de una segunda voz y Roger podria hacerlo bien.

I love Roger’s voice: THE MASK is fantastic.
August 10th, 2020 at 14:38I discovered that voice when The Mask was edited.
August 11th, 2020 at 13:36Saw Roger on stage last October, singing the Eddie Cochrane song “Something Else”. Rog was on tour with Pete Yorck’s Rock&Blues Circus…
August 11th, 2020 at 19:32Between Ringo and Maurice Gibb. Later Roger’s voice got more nasal, Mo Gibb got warmer and Ringo… remained Ringo.
August 19th, 2020 at 11:34Never heard of this demo before.
