Steve Morse on Simon McBride's replacement in Deep Purple: "I thought he was a better fit for them"

When questioned by Guitar Ultimat if he was familiar with Simon McBride's substitute guitar playing, Morse responded. "He's very good, wonderfully professional, great guy. No big deal there. He's got it covered. And I think he's a better fit for them. They're going longer than I ever thought they would go. They're booking more and more gigs." #stevemorse
