April song lyrics

(Blackmore/Lord)

A sort of 3 part of concert about the month of april. The first section is played by just Jon and
Ritchie. Jon played piano and organ, and Ritchie played acoustic guitar (a rhythm pattern and a
double tracked lead pattern) and electric guitar. The choir was added afterwards. The whole
section used about 11 different tracks. Also Ian on timpani can be heard in the background. The
second section is Jon's orchestral description of April. The instruments used were : two flutes,
two oboes, cor anglais, two clarinets, two violins, viola and two cellos. The third section is a
treatment of the chord sequence of the first section in a more 'Purple' way. As a whole, we
hope April hangs together as personal evocation of a beautiful, but sad (to us) month.

April is a cruel time
Even though the sun may shine
And world looks in the shade as it slowly comes away
Still falls the April rain
And the valley's filled with pain
And you can't tell me quite why
As i look up to the grey sky
Where it should be blue
Grey sky where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I'll cry, say that I don't know

Maybe once in a while I'll forget and I'll smile
But then the feeling comes again of an April without end
Of an April lonely as they come
In the dark of my mind I can see all too fine
But there is nothing to be done when I just can't feel the sun
And the springtime's the season of the night

Grey sky where it should be blue
Grey sky where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I'll cry, say that I don't know
I don't know



Deep Purple original lineup:
Ritchie Blackmore - Lead Guitar
Rod Evans - Vocals
Jon Lord - Keyboards
Ian Paice - Drums
Nicky Simper - Bass Guitar
Deep Purple was, unusually, the band's third album, recorded between January and April 1969.
It was the last album to feature the band's original line up, which survived until June 1969. The
album was their most ambitious at the time; combining hard rock and classical music together -
hardly the most obvious combination. The track 'April' was a taste of things to come later that
year - the 'Concerto for Group and Orchestra'....
The song notes that appear before the lyrics on each track are the sleeve notes that were issued
with the original gatefold sleeve album.
