Love is all - Roger Glover

I have vague memories of being absolutely hooked on this video. I was four years old when this song hit number one in the Netherlands, but my older brother and sister were watching Toppop every week - and I saw it with them.

Roger Glover was bassist and songwriter with the rock band Deep Purple. After spending four years with Deep Purple, Glover was dismissed by guitarist Ritchie Blackmore and became a record producer for bands like Judas Priest, Nazareth and Elf. His first solo album 'Butterfly ball' was released in 1974, spawning 'Love is all', a number one hit in the Netherlands - but not in other countries.

My collection: 7" single no. 2943
Found: Record fair, Leiden, January 31, 1998
Cost: 1 guilder
Tracks: 'Love is all' / 'Old blind mole/Magician Moth'
