My Planet Rocks


It's another classic MY PLANET ROCKS this week, and we're chatting to IAN GILLAN

Ian talks about all things Purple, his solo career and he tells us about some of the songs that have inspired him.

To listen, tune in on Sunday 20 May at 9pm.

Now in its seventh series, My Planet Rocks has seen some of the world's greatest rock stars take to the airwaves. Since the series first began, the likes of Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson, Lemmy from Motorhead, The Who's Pete Townshend, Meat Loaf, Alice Cooper, blues legend Gary Moore and the late, great Ronnie James Dio have all taken control of the radio station for an hour to play their favourite songs and talk about their greatest influences.
