(born 29 June 1948) is an English musician who is the drummer and last remaining original member of the
rock
band
Deep Purple
.
[1]
He remains the only member of Deep Purple who has served in every line-up since the band's inception in 1968, as well as having played on every album and at every live appearance. He was inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
as a member of Deep Purple in 2016.
Aside from Deep Purple, he was also a member of a number of projects that also involved other Deep Purple members, including
Whitesnake
(also featuring
Jon Lord
and
David Coverdale
, both of Deep Purple), and
Paice Ashton Lord
(also featuring Jon Lord). He also played drums backing other musicians, including
Gary Moore

Biography
[
edit
]
The early years
[
edit
]
Born in Nottingham before moving south in early childhood, Paice got his first drum kit at 15. He began his professional career in the early 1960s playing drums in his father's dance band. The first band he was in was called Georgie & the Rave-Ons, which after being renamed the Shindigs released their first single featuring the 17-year-old Paice and George Adams.
In 1966 Paice joined the MI5, which soon changed its name to the Maze. Primarily a club band, the Maze produced a number of singles, recorded mainly in Italy and France.
Deep Purple
[
edit
]
The Maze featured vocalist
Rod Evans
, who alongside Paice was to form the original line-up of
Deep Purple
in March 1968. Evans had responded to an ad for a lead singer published by Deep Purple management, and showed up for his audition with Ian Paice in tow. Given that Deep Purple's first choice as drummer,
Bobby Woodman
, had expressed dislike for the band's musical direction, the group hastily arranged an audition for Paice, with guitarist
Ritchie Blackmore
leading the charge.
[2]
Blackmore in interviews years later stated: "I had looked for Ian Paice for about a year after seeing him perform in
Hamburg
. He's an incredible drummer. And he was the motor of the band". Paice is the last remaining original Deep Purple member in the band in the present day.
[3]
Whitesnake
[
edit
]
After Deep Purple split up, Paice went on to form a new group,
Paice Ashton Lord
in 1976. The band, also comprising singer/pianist
Tony Ashton
, Deep Purple organist
Jon Lord
, guitarist/vocalist
Bernie Marsden
and bassist
Paul Martinez
, recorded one album (
Malice in Wonderland
) and played only five live shows. Paice Ashton Lord were put on hold in 1977, halfway through recording the group's second album. They subsequently broke up, allegedly because
Tony Ashton
only felt at home playing live shows in little clubs.

In August 1979, Paice was asked by
David Coverdale
to join
Whitesnake
on the Japanese tour for the
Lovehunter
album. He stayed with the band for almost three years. He appeared on the Whitesnake albums
Ready an' Willing
(1980),
Live...in the Heart of the City
(1980),
Come an' Get It
(1981) and
Saints & Sinners
(1982).
This incarnation of Whitesnake featured David Coverdale and Jon Lord, which meant three members of the Mark III line-up of Deep Purple were in Whitesnake during this period. Following musical differences with David Coverdale, Paice left Whitesnake in January 1982.
[4]
Gary Moore Band
[
edit
]
In 1982, Paice joined
Gary Moore
for an album that turned into
Corridors of Power
. Moore's manager subsequently came up with the idea of Moore and Paice putting a band together under Moore's name, so that his management would take the business side of the project with Paice having a sizeable interest in the band. The collaboration turned out to be a successful one and produced a couple of albums and extensive tours. Paice left Moore's band in April 1984 when the reformed Deep Purple reconvened, and he remains in Deep Purple to the present day.
Notable collaborations
[
edit
]
Paice played drums on
the Velvet Underground
's final album
Squeeze
, which was released in 1973. At that point, the band only consisted of singer and multi-instrumentalist
Doug Yule
(all of the other members, including
Lou Reed
, had either left or been fired by their manager), and the album was poorly received and quickly fell into obscurity.
In 1973, Paice was among English rock musicians invited by
Eddie Harris
, an American jazz player, to take part in the saxophonist's London sessions at Morgan Studios. Paice played on two songs: "He's Island Man" and "I've Tried Everything" along with
Jeff Beck
,
Steve Winwood
and
Rick Grech
. The album, called
E.H. in the U.K.
? The Eddie Harris London Sessions
, produced by Geoffrey Haslam, was released the next year thru Atlantic Records.
In 1983, Paice took part in one of the first tribute recordings by symphonic orchestra paid to a rock band.
Arrested ? The Music of Police
was a joint venture by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by
Don Airey
and assembled rock musicians (other artists involved included
Neil Murray
,
Graham Bonnet
,
Chris Thompson
, Gary Moore,
Roy Wood
, Keth Airey and Raff Ravenscroft). The sessions took place mainly in London, primarily at
Abbey Road Studios
, but also in
Los Angeles
.
In July 1989, Paice took part in
George Harrison
's recording session at Friar Park, which resulted in three songs "Cheer Down", "Cockamamie Business" and "Poor Little Girl", which also featured
Jeff Lynne
,
Jim Horn
and
Richard Tandy
among others. The songs were recorded for the compilation album
Best of Dark Horse 1976-1989
, released in October the same year. The purpose of this album was to close Harrison's contractual obligations to Warner Brothers. "Cheer Down" was also released on the
Lethal Weapon 2
(1989) soundtrack album.
In March 1999, Paice joined
Paul McCartney
at
Abbey Road Studios
for the recording of
Run Devil Run
, released in October that year. The line-up also featured Pink Floyd's
David Gilmour
and The Pirates'
Mick Green
. Paice also joined the album's line-up at three one-off performances in September and December 1999, including a show at the famous
Cavern Club
.
Steve Morse
said of Paice: "He's like a real heavy Ringo. He's just so good on the drums, but doesn't want to make a big deal about it."
[5]
In 2001, Paice guested on
Jim Capaldi
's album
Living on the Outside
. He played on a 1960s-style rock-and-roll song, "Anna Julia", and the guitar-driven "We're Not Alone". "Anna Julia", which was also released as a single and turned out a considerable hit, also features George Harrison and
Paul Weller
.
Paice has worked on numerous occasions with former Spencer Davis Group drummer,
Pete York
. In December 2001 the two played a low key club tour of Germany, playing two drums on one stage, supported by
Colin Hodgkinson
(bass) and
Miller Anderson
(guitar, vocals). Apart from the regular setlist consisting of songs from York's and Paice's back catalogue, the shows featured impromptu drumming demonstrations and Q&A sessions.
Paice often joins Italian guitarist Tolo Marton, with whom he has performed on many occasions over the last decade, on stage. Marton's live album
Dal Vero
features Paice on the
Jimi Hendrix
songs "Stone Free" and "Hey Joe". Since 2005, he has also been involved in Moonstone Project led by Italian guitarist Matteo Filippini. The band performs regularly, mainly in Italy; they have also released two studio albums on which Paice has guested.
Time to Take a Stand
, released in 2006, featured two songs featuring both Paice and
Glenn Hughes
, performing together for the first time since 1976.
The list of Paice's declared admirers includes Red Hot Chili Peppers'
Chad Smith
.
[6]
On 21 June 2004 Smith and Paice joined forces at the launch of the London Drum Company. The next year they also played together at the Modern Drummer Festival at New Jersey Performing Arts Center. Both performances were released on DVD.
In mid-2011, Paice took part in the all-star recording of
William Shatner
's
Seeking Major Tom
, the actor's fourth album, a collection of space-themed cover songs. Paice plays on a rendition of Deep Purple's "Space Truckin'" alongside
Johnny Winter
. The album also features former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore.
Special performances/charity activities
[
edit
]
On 19 June 1992, Paice was among guest musicians performing at the
Leukaemia Research
charity concert in
Oxford
. The concert featured members of
Bad Company
and
Procol Harum
as well as Gary Moore and Tony Ashton.
On 20 October 1992 in New York, Paice played at the John Bonham Tribute alongside
Jason Bonham
,
Tommy Aldridge
,
Denny Carmassi
, and
Frankie Banali
among others. Paice performed "The Rover" from the
Led Zeppelin
album
Physical Graffiti
.
Paice joined Tony Ashton at two performances at the Hell Blues Festival on 10 and 11 September 1999 in Norway. The band also featured Paul Martinez on bass, who had played alongside Ashton and Paice in Paice Ashton Lord in 1976/1977. The group was, however, billed as Tony Ashton & Legendary Friends.
Paice entertained more than 1000 people at a special charity concert in Reading on 13 January 2006. This highly successful event, which raised over £7000, was organised by Chris Wright, MD of DrumWright. The show was organised in aid of Tong-Len, which supports primary education for highly deprived children in Northern India.
[7]
On 31 March and 1 April 2006, Paice joined
Don Airey
,
Thomas Blug
and
Thijs van Leer
at impromptu performances held during the ProLight+Sound fair in Frankfurt, Germany. The show included songs from the highly acclaimed Billy Cobham album
Spectrum
as well as songs by Deep Purple and Focus.
Since 2006, Paice has also been involved in
The Sunflower Jam
, a London-based charity founded by his wife Jacky Paice and also involving actor
Jeremy Irons
. Paice is usually featured as a member of the SunflowerJam house band. He has performed there with likes of
Robert Plant
,
Brian May
,
John Paul Jones
, Gary Moore and
Bruce Dickinson
.
On 2 March 2007, Paice held a drum clinic organised by the University of Glamorgan. The show was organised in partnership with ATRiuM the University's Cardiff School of Creative & Cultural Industries. Commenting after the show Paice said: "ATRiuM will be a great place for young musicians to learn their craft, not to mention all the other things they’ve got going on there. This drum clinic of mine will hopefully demonstrate that drummers are also musicians, despite the jokes!".
[8]
On 13 January 2008, Paice took part in the ChildLine Rocks charity concert in London, where he played live with former Deep Purple bassist
Glenn Hughes
for the first time since 1976.
On 24 May 2008, Paice participated in "Rock Legends Adventure" concert in Cologne, Germany. He joined an all-stars line-up featuring
Pete York
,
Leland Sklar
,
Steve Lukather
,
Bobby Kimball
and
John Miles
among others. Paice played on 10 of 32 songs performed that night, including The Kinks' "
You Really Got Me
", The Beatles' "
I Saw Her Standing There
" and "Come Together", Allman Brothers Band's "One Way Out", Steve Wonder's "Superstition" and Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water".
Paice appeared at the Pearl Day (Pearl drums event) which was held on 1 June 2008 at the East Midlands Conference Centre in Nottingham, UK. Apart from Paice, guests included Jerry Brown, Mark Brzezecki, Jimmy Degrasso, Darrin Mooney, and Dan Foord.

On 16 September 2012, Paice appeared at the Sunflower Jam charity concert at the
Royal Albert Hall
, performing alongside guitarist
Brian May
of
Queen
, bassist
John Paul Jones
of
Led Zeppelin
, and vocalists Bruce Dickinson and

.
[9]
Personal life
[
edit
]
Paice is married and has three children: James, Emmy and Calli. His wife, Jacky, is the twin sister of the late Jon Lord's wife, Vicky.
It had been rumored (and even mentioned by former
Gillan
guitarist
Bernie Torme
in an interview) that Paice has only one lung:
[10]
in reality, he is only missing a portion of the lower lobe in his left lung, due to contracting a case of
pneumonia
when he was six years old that turned into
tuberculosis
.
[11]
He is almost always seen wearing glasses with blue (or occasionally green or purple)-tinted spectacle lenses.
[12]
[13]
Paice is a supporter of
England rugby
and has a good knowledge of the game. His son James played for a long time. He talked about it in "Oval Bin" Show with
Luca Tramontin
.
Health
[
edit
]
On 14 June 2016, he suffered a
transient ischaemic attack
, or mini stroke.
[14]
This led to Deep Purple cancelling two concerts planned in Sweden that week.
[15]
He said after the incident that there was "no serious or permanent damage" and expected to return to performing in July. He added that the cancelled concerts were the first Deep Purple performances of which he had forced the cancellation since his co-founding of the band in 1968.
[16]
He returned to stage with Deep Purple in Gothenburg on 1 July, playing a full setlist with the band, but without performing his drum solo.
Equipment
[
edit
]
Today Paice uses
Pearl
drumkits as his main performing drums, incorporating
Paiste
cymbals,
Remo
drumheads and
Pro-Mark
drumsticks. He used
Ludwig
kits during the seventies and early eighties in remarkable large sizes: 26" Bass drum, 16" Tom, an 18 & 20" floor tom and 14 x 6.5" Supraphonic snare which was a blueprint for his signature snare from
Pearl
. In 1982 he switched companies, because
Ludwig
's development stalled and he got a better deal from
Pearl
. He also prefers a single
bass drum
set-up, both live and in the studio.
Pearl Drums
produce his signature
snare drum
.
[17]
He has also released a solo DVD which is aimed at both drummers and music fans in general.
[5]
Influences and style
[
edit
]
Paice's early influences include jazz and rock drummers such as
Gene Krupa
,
Buddy Rich
,
Bobby Elliott
,
Ringo Starr
and
Charles Connor
,
[18]
and later he was inspired by
Carmine Appice
,
Ginger Baker
and
Mitch Mitchell
.
[19]
He is primarily
left-handed
with a left-handed drum-kit set-up and uses the matched-grip approach. He is well known for his extremely fast and smooth single and double-stroke rolls as well as single bass pedal speed. He did however perform once with a double-bass setup on the title track of the
Fireball
album and was performed live occasionally. He is also known for perfecting the one-handed roll as demonstrated on a
Drummerworld
video.
Paice has been cited as an influence on many notable rock drummers, including
Clive Burr
,
[20]
Mikkey Dee
,
[21]
Virgil Donati
,
[22]
Dave Grohl
,
[23]
Gary James
,
[24]
Simon Phillips
[25]
and
Matt Starr
.
[26]
In 2016, Paice was ranked 21st in
Rolling Stone
's list
100 Greatest Drummers of All Time
.
[27]
Recognition
[
edit
]
On 5 November 2007 at the Classic Rock Awards, Jacky and Ian Paice received the ChildLine award in recognition of their philanthropic work with the SunflowerJam raising money for children with cancer. Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden presented them with the award. It was the first time the award has been given.
On 2 April 2012, Paice was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Buddy Rich 25th Anniversary Memorial Concert at the London Palladium.
He was inducted into the
Modern Drummer
Hall of Fame in 2015.
[28]
As a member of Deep Purple, he was inducted into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
on 8 April 2016.
