I was very impressed with this song from the beginning of hearing it. Hopefully, later you will too.
Love Is All is one of the songs on the album The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper’s Feast which is a concept album released in the UK on November 8, 1974. The song wrote by Eddie Hardin and sung by Ronnie James Dio. The album was a project by Roger Glover’s solo album after he left Deep Purple in 1973 and in collaboration with John Lord – the group’s keyboard player.
According to Wikipedia, their plan was to make a rock opera based on William Plomer and Alan Aldridge’s book The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper’s Feast (1973), in itself based on the eponymous poem by British historian William Roscoe (1802). However, because Lord was too busy with Deep Purple Glover decided to make it into a concept album recorded by himself and musicians like Glenn Hughes, David Coverdale, John Lawton, and Ronnie James Dio.

Love is everything, what makes the world go round.. Great message!
Yes, Pamela. Love is what makes the world go round. So glad the message has bounced and spread through you…
Nice song with good meaning although not the favorite style I’m used to. Every now and then it’s a positive choice.
Through your appreciation, at least the message of love from the song until though not through something that is your favorite, brother. Thanks a lot.
That’s some great music, thank you for sharing! There’s always the right time for each song.
Thank you for your appreciation for the song Ellie. Even though I didn’t compose that song, it’s also not the one who sang it but at least it was a song that I really like.
You are right, there is a right time for every song.
Love the lyrics. I hope all people understand that love is all we need.
The title and the lyrics are the main reason I put the song here. Yes, I as you are really hope that people understand that love is all (we need).
This is the kind of music that did not play well on the radio. This was the dark room, gathered around the stereo kind of music!
Understandable. At first, I also had to unpack the piles of the work of the group’s personnel, as I also found songs from other music group members.
the crowd I played music for was strange. Overnight workers always have a different view of the world!
As we are with various dimensions, maybe that’s their perspective in the dimension of working overnight, and you are their main reference to accompany in the dimension. Who knows during the day they would prefer Lullaby…
it is possible, they usually wanted top 40 stuff, i tried to mix in a bunch of genres (Jazz, classic rock and some metal!
Great chefs are always able to serve delicious food!
i suspect I was not great. i did get fired from my job for calling my boss a booger on the air.
You were fired not because of your good performance, greatness and prowess but because of something else as another bad boy, right?
i cannot stand injustice my friend. When someone attacks another person, in life or here on this site, I defend the attacked person without question. I do not believe in allowing the concept of bullying to be accepted in any form.
so, my boss at the radio station abused my engineer, just said horrible things to him. So I took the argument public.
You are the person I admire about it, Doc! I think you have done something right even though the truth often brings trouble, right?
i cannot, will not stand bullying in any form. Pick on me, that is fine I am as they say a big boy and can take it. But pick on others, and i will defend them
It’s not the kind of music I listen to but … it’s not too late to change my my preferences!🙂
I know that it’s definitely not the music you like, but at least this song can be a fun friend. After all the rock is not too thick.
The message of this song is truly wonderful!
Absolutelly! The title and the lyrics as the message are the main reason I put the song here, Ma’am.
We had a cassette of Deep Purple way back. Do not remember whether I really enjoyed listening to that kind of music
I still have cassettes of their albums even a little incomplete because some friends have borrowed and never returned it.
Ummm… If you already have clicked on the play button, can you enjoy it?
I just listened to it now. Not bad.
Thank you for being willing to bother clicking the play button and appreciating it, Grace.
I don’t know this song. My son listened to heavy metal and hard rock at a young age.
If so, the question is do you enjoy the songs played by your son, or do you nag more?
I have to admit that I liked some of the songs
This is a new one for me, however my brother always liked Deep Purple and I could hear the music from his room growing up. More good memories.
I think the song tends to pop, but I like the composition and sound of Dio (one of my favorite singers) in bringing the song.
In that era, young people like your brother (or boys in general) would like Deep Purple and similar groups. More than memories, they still faithfully accompanied me…
I’m not a big fan of heavy metal and modern hard rock, but I like some of Deep Purple’s songs.
I know, dear Elenka. Knowing that you also like some Deep Purple songs is enough for me.
