SOMETHING ABOUT GUNS AND SHOOTING By "PURPLE HEATHER" This
commendable shooting title was first published in London in 1891,
and is now a highly prized item in the libraries of many shooting
men. It is always much sought after and has become increasingly
expensive in its first edition. Read Country Books has now
re-published it in its entirety, as part of their "History of
Shooting" series, using the original text and retaining the many
illustrated gun, cartridge, and equipment makers' advertisements.
"Purple Heather" learnt the rudiments of shooting in the days when
breech-loaders were unknown and hammerless ejectors unthought of.
His name and his shooting articles were familiar to readers of many
sporting journals of the day. In this, his first book, he delves
carefully into the science and technicalities of a subject he has
so much at heart. The book's 188 pages are divided into thirteen
chapters including: Judging Distance - A "Joe Manton" - Flint and
Steel Percussion Guns. - Trials of Muzzle Loaders. - Fashion in
Game Guns, and their Loads. - Trials of Breech Loaders. - The
Advantages of Good Guns. - Correct Fit of Guns -"Cast Off." -
Suitable Game Guns. - Chokes and Cylinders. - Shot and Powder. -
Shooting Trials Results and Loading Tables. - Plus the author's
entertaining notes on his own shooting experiences. Each chapter
contains a large fund of useful information to votaries of the gun,
and the whole is written in an attractive style. This new edition
has been produced to the highest standards in an attractive soft
cover format. Many of the earliest sporting books, particularly
those dating back to the 1800s, are now extremely scarce and very
expensive. READ COUNTRY BOOKS are reprinting these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions. These editions are
republished using the original text and artwork.
On the very same venue where the band has written rock history with the album “Made In Japan”, Deep Purple went on stage without nostalgia and with the attitude of a band that is physically led by the music, making playing a perfect show look as the most natural thing one could do. Song after song, Purple play a flawless show going back and forth in time.
Deep Purple's many sides are at their best here: the energy but also the groove, the great solo moments by Don Airey and Steve Morse. The soft sides and their energetic heavy counterparts.
Filmed by 12 HD cameras and recorded by a top mobile studio, the show offers one of the most magical performances of the NOW What?! tour. Every member of the band is in fantastic form, the band being strong from a full tour together, and the performance seems to be driving the band through the songs as if audience and band were suspended in time.
(Transcribed Score). A must for fans of these supreme arena
rockers, this songbook contains every note and nuance from 9 DP
classics transcribed note-for-note for every instrument and vocal
that appears on the original recordings Songs: Black Night * Child
in Time * Highway Star * Lazy * Smoke on the Water * Space Truckin'
* Speed King * Strange Kind of Woman * Woman from Tokyo. Includes
tab.
