Edgar Broughton, writing for the Friars Aylesbury website in 2008 said:
"Gosh! That is all a bit hazy these days. I just remember it being the best gig for miles around and that is about it. I suppose I was always a teeny bit stoned, come to think of it."

A popular turn at Friars, it was no surprise that Gillan made four headlining appearances including the 1982 date on his farewell tour as he had been advised that his voice could be under threat. Gillan the band fell apart and subsequently (after vocal cord surgery) went on to front a reformed Deep Purple who still tour to this day.
