Speaking of RB interviews, perhaps the very best one ever is from Long Island, May 1998. That served as the basis for the great Record Collector feature later that year (elementary for any RB fan - excellently written, very well organised chronologically). It was (almost) completely published in MBTP issues 9 and 10 (elementary for any die-hard RB fan).
A veritable motherlode/goldmine (pun intended) Blackmore & Blackmore-related interviews that have been conducted & published over (pretty much) the last 30 - 35 years can be read in their entirety here:

...just click on 'Interviews' in the box on the left hnd side of th main page. And yes, the excellent one Rezi referred to can be read in it's entirety there, too.

Its a known fact that Gillan was struggling with his voice in the mid 80's, so although it is a dig at Gillan, Blackmore is only answering the question with the truth as he see's it.
I think both Ritchie and Ian were struggling at various times during the 80s. For the most part Ritchie's live playing was bad, he must have been having hand problems or just not into it, burnt out.
