Deep Purple

VINYL FORMAT. 180 gram exact repro reissue, featuring the full insane Hieronymus Bosch cover art. Recorded with the band's first line-up - lead singer Rod Evans, bassist Nick Simper, organist Jon Lord and guitarist Ritchie Blackmore) - and the IQ-level is at an all time high. Tracks include a cover of Donovan's "Lalena" ("...done how we thought Donovan might like to have heard it"), "The Painter" ("recorded live; no double tracking"), "April" ("A sort of 3-part concert about the month of April") and "Fault Line" ("Recorded when we heard that we were going to be in L.A. at earthquake time"). What a bunch of geniuses.
