- Oppose Constipated expression; mic hand hiding most of his face; seems to have partially missed the spotlight; distracting shadows; dazzle camouflage top; unfortunate trouser wrinkling around the groinal region; leg configuration/termination uncertain; it seems Deep Purple's heyday was in the 1970s (apologies to any Deep Purple fans who know otherwise) so a pic from that time would have more EV.

- I can see most of the points, but I fail to see how a picture of a currently performing solo artist has to be from when he was part of a band. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 01:43, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
- It doesn't have to be; I'd just be more inclined to give it some leeway. Belle (talk) 01:48, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
- There'd be room for two pictures, especially if they were that far apart. Honestly, the hair he had deserves main page space :D — Chris Woodrich (talk) 04:28, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

- Weak Support I have to say that the picture is obviously the best available for the time being... I don't care for the mic blocking his face, but not a HUGE deal (enough of one to not give full support.) Dusty777 18:01, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
