The Deep Purple vocalist and founder member Ian Gillan continues his solo recording career with 'One Eye To Morocco', his first after a gap of ten years. The album is so-titled because of a phrase Gillan heard while in Cracow, describing someone who is cross-eyed. Gillan co-wrote much of the album with his Deep Purple bandmate Steve Morris while on a break from touring, and much of the recording took place in Ontario. Musically, Gillan eschews traditional rock arrangements more synonymous with Deep Purple in favour of more extensive and varied instrumentation.
