RonJonSurfer 15 Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Luciano Pavarotti Lends Voice to Deep Purple Legendary tenor Luciano Pavarotti will lend his voice to a new version of the Deep Purple classic "Smoke on the Water," for a new retrospective album covering the 40 year career of rocker Ian Gillan. Pavarotti, 69, has performed with the British band in the past - and is friends with Deep Purple singer Gillan - but won't be joining them in the studio. Instead, Pavarotti will record his vocals on the new version of the 1972 track in his homeland of Italy. An insider says, "Pavarotti is expected to record his vocals in Italy and then have them blended with Ian's." Link to post Share on other sites

edna 6 Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 OMG Pavarotti doesn´t sing as a rock singer... Freddy mercury already did something with opera singer Montserrat Caballé, "Barcelona" for the Olympic Games... Smoke on the water, fire in the sand... Link to post Share on other sites

Foxy 0 Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 G4 performed Bohemian Rhapsody, although they aren't Opera so I'm told, they're classically trained Click video icon next to G4 - Bohemian Rhapsody Link to post Share on other sites
