Ian Gillan (born 19 August 1945 in Hounslow, London), is an English rock music vocalist and songwriter, best known as the lead singer and lyricist for Deep Purple. During his career Gillan had a year-long stint as the vocalist for Black Sabbath and sang the role of Jesus Christ in the original cast recording of Andrew Lloyd Webber's rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar. Gillan is considered to be one of the foremost rock vocalists, who introduced[original research?][citation needed] into rock music the vocal belting technique. It is often argued that he was the highest "screamer" in all of rock music history. His work with Deep Purple is particularly recognisable for its occasional high-pitched screams and falsettos.
