Send us Fan MailWhoCares, full title Ian Gillan & Tony Iommi: WhoCares, is a music project by Deep Purple frontman Ian Gillan and Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi and a charity release by the supergroup WhoCares they had formed with the help of other musicians, to raise money to rebuild a music school in Gyumri, Armenia after the destruction of the city in the 1988 earthquake in Armenia.In addition to Ian Gillan and Tony Iommi (who were Black Sabbath bandmates from 1983 to 1984), many artists took part in the charity music project including Jon Lord (Ian Gillan's former Deep Purple bandmate), ex-Metallica bassist Jason Newsted, Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain, and HIM guitarist Mikko "Linde" Lindström.In addition to the 2-track single "Out of My Mind / Holy Water" released in 2011, the 2-CD album contains other previously recorded songs from various bands, rarities and unreleased material as well. The album was released on 13 July 2012 in Europe and in North America on 28 August 2012.Jon Lord died three days after the album's release, making it his final recording.ReceptionSince its release, the album has been met with positive responses. Reviewer William Clark of Guitar International gave the album a positive review, saying "The wondrous contributions by Ronnie James Dio, Glenn Hughes, and by members of Metallica, Repo Depo, Iron Maiden, HIM, Deep Purple, and Black Sabbath should make nearly every hard rock and heavy metal fan weak at the knees!".[1]Track listingCD 1No.TitleWriter(s)Performer(s)Length1. | "Out of My Mind" (Originally released on the CD single "Out of My Mind / Holy Water") | Ian Gillan and Tony Iommi | WhoCares feat.
