Remastered re-release of the sixth full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
Deep Purple simply were the finest musicians around in the early 70s. The bands stable line up for this whole period revolves around three of the biggest musicians ever namely: Ian Paice, Jon Lord and Ritchie Blackmore. These guys could simply out play anyone around at the time. Roger Glover, although one of the bands more modest members was a fantastic bassist who has some truly memorable moments on this album, including a bass solo. Ian Gillan is frankly the most fun you’ll ever have with Rock vocals. His range is phenomenal. For many people, it's the first Metal album ever (in terms of performing, sound, and production). For others, it's a simple hybrid attempt of trying to look different. Nonetheless, the influence of this album in the development of Metal music is gigantic!
“Machine Head” gives you everything: catchy songs between powerful tunes. A total machine, able to do whatever you expect from it. It's so Metal and so traditional at the same time. A necessary masterpiece in your collection, no doubt about it!

The nineteenth full-length album by the legendary British Hard Rock band.
Legend is back with their best studio album since 1984’s "Perfect Strangers". Deep Purple decided to go back to their roots with "Now What?!" and it paid off. The band enlisted producer extraordinaire Bob Ezrin to help them capture the spirit and vibe they were looking for. Ezrin took the band up on their offer and pushed them hard along the way. The result is a classic Deep Purple album that will thrill their hardcore fan base!
Every member made great contributions on the album. Vocalist Ian Gillan and bassist Roger Glover collaborated on the lyrics, impressing the hard to impress Ezrin. Guitarist Steve Morse and keyboardist Don Airey are the true Rock Stars on the album. They gave 110% and it shows in both their songwriting and their playing. Drummer Ian Paice, along with Glover, lay down the groove to allow the others to jam resulting in a great listening experience.

Remastered re-release of the eleventh full-length album by the legendary British Hard Rock band.
It represents the first album for eleven years recorded by the reunited, the most successful and popular 'Mark II' line-up (Ritchie Blackmore and Roger Glover arrived from Rainbow, Ian Gillan from Black Sabbath, Jon Lord from Whitesnake, and Ian Paice from Gary Moore's backing band), the last being "Who Do We Think We Are" in 1973. It was the first Deep Purple studio album in nine years. It is one of the better examples of a reunion album, although the band's uneasy camaraderie only lasted a few more years.
Long before reunions became big-money pursuits, the key members of Deep Purple put aside differences that caused them to split in 1973 and, bowing not to financial concerns but public demand, reformed for their first album in 11 years and a subsequent blockbuster tour. While the record’s title cleverly acknowledges the long time the musicians spent apart, everything about the album confirms the inimitable blend of creative chemistry, crafty songwriting, and trademark skills shared by the five players.
All the hallmark traits from Deep Purple’s golden era (1970-1973) are on display throughout this platinum comeback affair, which has aged much better than most mid-80s efforts in terms of sound, performance, and content. At times mystical, aggressive, and dramatic, "Perfect Strangers" leaves a lasting impression courtesy of Ian Gillan’s leather-lunged vocal range, Roger Glover’s self-assured bass lines, Ian Paice’s titanium-tough drumming, and the trade-off soloing between the wizard-like, vibrato-emboldened guitar playing of Ritchie Blackmore and voodoo-casting organ spells of Jon Lord.
Compositions such as the hit “Knocking at Your Back Door,” hook-laden title track, and racing “A Gypsy’s Kiss” could be deemed products of a supergroup. Yet calling them so shortchanges the artistry, as the posturing asides and attention-getting episodes common to such projects aren’t here. "Perfect Strangers" is hard, heavy purity, the last album Deep Purple crafted of its kind and one that stands right up to the ensemble’s classic “Fireball” and “Machine Head”!
The CD and cassette versions of the album contained the extra track "Not Responsible" (one of few Deep Purple songs with profane lyrics, as the word "fu***ng" can be heard in the song).
The album was remastered and reissued on 22 June 1999 with the bonus instrumental track "Son of Alerik". This fascinating, mid-tempo, ten-minute instrumental was the B-side of the "Perfect Strangers" 12" single in the U.K., 1984.

The fourth re-release on CD of the fourth compilation album by the legendary British Hard Rock band.
"24 Carat Purple" is the first compilation album of Deep Purple released worldwide on their own record company. It was released in June 1975.
"24 Carat Purple" appropriately stands proud, among what is now a landslide of collections and hits packages, as a flawless representation of the band's Mark II identity at its very best.
The "Made In Japan" double live album consumes much of the single disc's body weight - the epic renditions of "Smoke on the Water", "Child in Time", and "Strange Kind of Woman" are, after all, among Deep Purple's most resonant moments, while "24 Carat Purple" also lures in collectors with a thunderous "Black Night", recorded at the same shows but omitted from the original album (it has since been appended to the "Made In Japan" CD remaster). With "Woman from Tokyo", "Fireball", and "Never Before" peeling off recent singles and "Speed King" excerpted from "Deep Purple In Rock", "24 Carat Purple" truly is a gold-plated depiction of the band at its all-time peak, before Ian Gillan and Roger Glover went their separate ways and an entire new journey kicked off with "Burn".
The album marked the debut of the live version of "Black Night", originally a B-side in Japan.
All songs written and composed by Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Jon Lord and Ian Paice.
Compilation got Silver status after 60000 copies sold.

Remastered 25th Anniversary Edition re-release of the fourth full-length album by the legendary British Hard Rock band.
It was the first band's album with the classic Mk II line-up. Rod Evans (vocals) and Nick Simper (bass) had been fired in June 1969 and were replaced by Ian Gillan and Roger Glover, respectively.
The album was preceded by two singles, the first studio recordings that Gillan made with Deep Purple. The first single, released in 1969, was a Greenaway-Cook composition called "Hallelujah", which flopped. The second single, "Black Night", fared much better as it rose all the way to #2 on the UK charts.
"Deep Purple In Rock" was their breakthrough album in Europe and would peak at #4 in the UK, remaining in the charts for months. (The band's prior MK I albums had been much better received in North America than in their homeland.) The album was supported by the hugely successful In Rock World Tour which lasted 15 months.
In 2005 the album won the "Classic Rock and Roll of Honour Award" (given by the British monthly magazine Classic Rock) in the category Classic Album. The award was presented to Ian Gillan, Ian Paice and Jon Lord.

First remastered re-release of the third full-length studio album (and the last in original Mark I line-up) by the legendary British Progressive Rock/Hard Rock band.
Also known as “April” or “Deep Purple III”, the album was released at a time when the band were starting to grow as performers, both live and in the studio, finding their direction musically. There were some conflicts over whether the band should continue on their rawer, heavier direction. This caused turmoil, which was partially responsible for two of the members Nick Simper (bass) and Rod Evans (vocals) being replaced by Roger Glover and Ian Gillan respectively. Commercially, this album was the least successful of the three Mark I era albums.
This album contains more original songs, seven in total, than on either of their first two albums, now starting to fully endeavor to write original material. The only cover song on the album is "Lalena", which was originally written and performed by Donovan. As an effect of the album's heavier, rawer sound, the individuals of the band, perhaps Ritchie Blackmore and Ian Paice in particular, were starting to really showcase their instrumental abilities, which had both been hidden in the organ-heavy mix on the previous two releases.
Ironically, the band's American label, Tetragrammaton Records, which was rapidly approaching bankruptcy, released this album a lot sooner than EMI did in England, but ran into trouble over the use of the Hieronymus Bosch painting "The Garden of Earthly Delights" on the cover; although it has been on display at the Vatican, the work was wrongly perceived as containing profane images and never stocked as widely in stores as it might've been. It did not come close to the same success as its two predecessors, peaking at No. 162 in the US Billboard charts. Tetragrammaton's financial problems were partially to blame, as promotion was lackluster, and the lack of a hit single or tour support were also factors.
This is one of the most bracing Progressive Rock albums ever, and a successful vision of a musical path that the band might have taken but didn't.
Re-edition features five bonus tracks!

Remastered re-release of the fifth full-length studio album by the legendary British Progressive Rock/Hard Rock band.
This is a second album with the classic Mark II lineup, and it was recorded at various times between September 1970 and June 1971.
One of Deep Purple's four indispensable albums (the others being "In Rock", "Machine Head", and "Burn"), 1971's "Fireball" saw the band broadening out from the no-holds-barred Hard Rock direction of the previous year's cacophonous "In Rock". Metal machine noises introduced the sizzling title track - an unusually compact but explosively tight group effort on which Jon Lord's organ truly shined. The somewhat tiring repetitions of "No No No" actually threatened to drop the ball next, but the fantastic single "Strange Kind of Woman" nimbly caught and set it rolling again, just in time for the innuendo-encrusted hilarity of "Anyone's Daughter", featuring one of singer Ian Gillan's first (and still best) humorous storylines to go with one of guitarist Ritchie Blackmore's most uncharacteristic, Bluesiest performances ever. "The Mule" opened the vinyl album's second side with what is perhaps Purple's finest instrumental, and on the hyper-extended "Fools", the bandmembers proved they could flirt with Progressive Rock without plunging off its cliff (although the song could probably have done without its drawn-out middle section). And closing the album was the exceptional "No One Came", where intertwining instrumental lines locked together beautifully, Gillan wove another entertaining yarn that was part autobiography and part Monty Python, and the often underrated skills of drummer Ian Paice helped the song sound so unreservedly fresh and intuitive that one could almost be convinced the band had winged it on the spot. Sure, the following year's "Machine Head" would provide Deep Purple with their commercial peak, but on "Fireball", the formidable quintet was already firing on all cylinders.
The album would become the first of the band's three UK #1 albums. It was certified Gold on July 26, 2001 by the RIAA, selling 500000 copies in the US.
The 25th Anniversary Edition contains the original album remastered for CD together with singles, album outtakes (including the previously unreleased “Slow Train”) and exclusive remixes. A 28 page booklet with rare photographs and notes from Roger Glover tells the story of this classic Deep Purple album!!

Limited Gold Edition of the twentieth full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
No one, least of all Deep Purple themselves, expected the success of 2013's "Now What?!". It placed at number 1 on four European album charts and in the Top 10 of six other countries.
For "InFinite", Deep Purple re-enlisted producer Bob Ezrin. At this point, he is almost a sixth member. This is the longest running lineup in their history. "InFinite" is a heavier and more expansive record than its predecessor. Ian Gillan is in excellent form - still possessing intense expressive power and range, his falsetto remains intact four decades on. Don Airey's organ and keys - so elemental in Deep Purple's musical architecture - is physical, atmospheric, and dynamic. He and guitarist Steve Morse combine brute force with imagination and finesse. Ian Paice, who had a mini-stroke last year, seems to have recovered fully. Roger Glover remains a bassist whose musical signature is so dominant it is only rivaled by Black Sabbath's Geezer Butler.
"InFinite" with all its limitations is an apotheosis of character and talent, the work of a group of men who feel comfortable in their own skin and comfortable with each other, which is weird to even fathom when we come to think of the history of the band. At the end of the day if this is how this story ends, it is a happy end after all. On "InFinite" Deep Purple do what they do best: extrapolate and alchemize the Blues and take it to new Progressive heights!
"InFinite" is a winner; it proves not only that "Now What?!" was no fluke, but that Deep Purple, even at this stage, still have plenty left to offer musically and creatively!!
Limited Gold Edition includes bonus CD with “Live At Hellfest 2017” concert and 24-page booklet.

The first re-release of the first live album of the “Mark VIII” line-up by the legendary British Hard Rock band.
The band's association with Montreux goes back to the early seventies, when their attempt to record their album "Machine Head" at the Montreux Casino was thwarted when it promptly burnt down, forcing them to make the album in the rooms and corridors of the Grand Hotel instead. The story was, of course, immortalized in their classic song "Smoke On The Water". Few bands are more closely associated with Montreux than Deep Purple, and there was simply no other contender when it came to choosing the act to headline the closing night of the Montreux Festival in 1996.
"Live At Montreux 1996" shows that the Morse-era Purple line-up, even in this early stage, had no problem cranking out the classics!
The CD release features live performances from Montreux in 1996 and 2000:
Track 1-10 recorded live at the Montreux Jazz Festival 9/7/1996;
Track 11-12 recorded live at the Montreux Jazz Festival 22/7/2000.

The first re-release of the second live album of the “Mark VIII” line-up by legendary British Hard Rock band.
The only difference in line-up is, unlike "Live At Montreux 1996", "Live at Montreux 2006 – They All Came Down To Montreux" includes Don Airey on keyboards instead of Jon Lord.
The band's association with Montreux goes back to the early seventies, when their attempt to record their album "Machine Head" at the Montreux Casino was thwarted when it promptly burnt down, forcing them to make the album in the rooms and corridors of the Grand Hotel instead. The story was, of course, immortalized in their classic song "Smoke On The Water". Few bands are more closely associated with Montreux than Deep Purple, and there was simply no other contender when it came to choosing the act to headline the closing night of the 40th Montreux Festival in 2006.
The album was recorded during 2006 Rapture Of The Deep Tour. The band duly delivered one of their finest live performances, sprinkling songs from their latest album "Rapture Of The Deep" through a set, chock-full of their classic tracks and, of course, a show-stopping performance of "Smoke On The Water".

“Rapture of the Deep” is the 18th studio album by Deep Purple, released in November 2005. It is currently the band's most recent studio album.
It is the fourth studio album from Deep Purple since Steve Morse joined the band in 1994. It is also the second album to feature veteran keyboardist Don Airey.

The album peaked on Billboard's USA "Top Independent Albums" Chart at position #43. It achieved considerable chart success in Europe, making the top 20 in several countries.

The thirteenth full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
"Slaves And Masters" was the definitely one of the most controversial and criticized albums of all time in the history of Deep Purple. This formation is known as Mark V, one of the many changes in the band's formation, more than their share of personnel changes over the years. In 1990, their lineup consisted of guitarist Ritchie Blackmore (who had returned to the Purple fold in 1984 after leaving the band to form Rainbow following the release of "Stormbringer" in November 1974), singer Joe Lynn Turner, keyboardist/organist Jon Lord, drummer Ian Paice, and bassist Roger Glover. This is the only Deep Purple album to feature former Rainbow lead vocalist Joe Lynn Turner, who had joined the previous year after the firing of Ian Gillan. Before hiring Turner, the band had considered singer Jimi Jamison of Survivor, but other obligations made him unavailable. Turner was still a member of the band when they began writing and recording their next album in 1992, but under duress from managers who were eyeing a 25th anniversary tour, Deep Purple ultimately decided to bring back Gillan to the line-up for their 1993 studio album "The Battle Rages On...". A handful of working tracks originally intended for the follow-up to "Slaves And Masters" would turn up on subsequent solo releases by Turner. "Too Much Is Not Enough" was re-recorded by Turner for his album "Hurry Up And Wait" (1998).
Longtime Purple followers continued to hope that Blackmore (who made promising contributions to the sound of 1984's reunion LP "Perfect Strangers") would help the band to reclaim the Metal throne, but "Slaves And Masters" was hardly the album to further the cause. The songwriting is weak and pedestrian, and most of the time, the once-mighty Purple (who were at least 16 years past their prime) sound like a generic Foreigner wannabe. The album dramatically sold below expectations, as compared to Deep Purple's previous album, "The House Of Blue Light" with Gillan, which charted at No. 34 in the US.VDespite underwhelming album sales, Deep Purple had a relatively successful tour in support of "Slaves And Masters" in 1991, especially for the band's European leg.
Technically the band stands together and makes a good performance but this album doesn't contain any of the elements that made Deep Purple famous throughout the world. Most tracks are about love with a mix of Whitesnake and 80's Rainbow, the only songs that are actually Hard Rock oriented are "Breakfast In Bed", "Fire In The Basement", and "Wicked Ways" which are the best on the album. Lyrically the album is good; Ritchie, Joe, Roger and the others are great songwriters and they kept their usual performance in this area. The best thing on the album is the production, thanks to Roger Glover - he works not only for bass but also for production, definitely he is one of the greatest artists in the music industry.
All in all, what puts this album in the bottom of the band's discography is the concept, the fact that they composed something that was so usual to hear in the 80's. Nowadays, none of the songs in this album are in the setlist of the band for live shows. It's definitely a consequence of the failure this album was, even the band knows the level this album is at compared with other classics. "Slaves And Masters" is not a a complete disaster, but it's definitely the worst album the band ever made. Although it had a relatively successful tour in 1991, it was way too melodic for the Hard Rock fans of Deep Purple.
Following its release, "Slaves And Masters" peaked at No. 87 on the US Billboard 200 chart.

The fourteenth full-length studio album by legendary British Hard Rock band.
Released in 1993, it's the last album recorded with the band's classic MK II line-up, which reunited for a second time (the first reunion being for 1984's "Perfect Strangers").
Personality clashes are as much a part of Deep Purple as Ritchie Blackmore's penchant for black clothing. A revolving door of members resulted in different lineups being given their own labels. The most popular version of Purple has always been the Mark II model: Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord, Roger Glover, and Ian Paice. This particular quintet has gotten together and had members leave in each of the past three decades, and "The Battle Rages On..." was that lineup's contribution to the '90s. Following a brief stint where former Rainbow vocalist Joe Lynn Turner sang lead for Purple on the prior "Slaves And Masters", Gillan returned for another go-round in 1993. Even though Mike DiMeo was initially chosen as the singer for the album after Joe Lynn Turner was fired, Ian Gillan eventually returned to the band in late 1992 and had to rework much of the material already existing for it, which had been intended for Joe Lynn Turner and DiMeo. After his firing, Turner would admit Ritchie Blackmore referred to the album as "The cattle grazes on". Blackmore became infuriated at the non-melodic elements and quit mid tour after the show of 17 November in Helsinki, Finland. American guitarist Joe Satriani joined Deep Purple as a temporary replacement for the duration of the tour. A handful of working tracks written during "The Battle Rages On..." sessions would turn up on subsequent solo releases by Turner, under different titles.
Personal differences aside, "The Battle Rages On..." picks up on the kind of chemistry that made albums like "Machine Head" and "Perfect Strangers" classics. Three decades on, Blackmore's range on guitar is still impressive as he goes from playing with an arrogant swagger on "One Man's Meat" to a fleet-fingered flamenco intro that kicks off the epic "Anya". Elsewhere, "A Twist in the Tale" plays out with the same kind of intensity as "Highway Star", while the hard-driving title track proved to be prophetic as Blackmore departed the band...
This album is as much a victim of the year it was released in as it was in being associated with the breakup of the band. It comes recommended to fans of Classic Rock and early 70s Metal, but fans of post-Ozzy Sabbath are also encouraged to check this one out. Don’t let the lack of interest fool you, there is some quality material on here!!

Remastered re-release of the seventh full-length studio album by the legendary British Hard Rock band.
Deep Purple's last album with singer Ian Gillan and bassist Roger Glover until "Perfect Strangers" came out in 1984.
Musically, the record showed a move to a more Blues based sound, even featuring scat singing. Although its production and the band's behavior after its release showed the band in turmoil, with frontman Gillan remarking that "we'd all had major illnesses" and felt considerable fatigue, the album was a commercial success.
The album featured the energetic Hard Rock single "Woman from Tokyo" (is about touring Japan for the first time), which has been performed on several tours by the band over the years. Despite massive sales, the group disintegrated among much infighting between band members as well as conflicts with their managers. The album's line-up would end after a final concert in Osaka, Japan on 29 June 1973.
Deep Purple became the US's top selling artist of calendar year 1973.
Fans bought the album in record numbers. In the US, for example, it sold half a million copies in its first three months, achieving a Gold record award faster than any Deep Purple album released up to that time. The album hit number 4 in the UK charts and number 15 in the US charts.
In 2000, "Who Do We Think We Are" was remastered and re-released with bonus tracks. The last bonus track is a lengthy instrumental jam called "First Day Jam”, which features Ritchie Blackmore on bass (Roger Glover, the band's usual bassist, was absent - allegedly lost in traffic).

The sixth full-length album by legendary British Melodic Alternative/Hard Rock band.
The album marked a musical departure from their signature sound. After the lackluster performance of "Adrenalize", Def Leppard realized it was time to abandon their trademark wall-of-guitars sound. Jettisoning producer Mutt Lange - who, admittedly, was busy producing his wife, country singer Shania Twain - the group stripped its sound to the basics for "Slang". There are very few layers-of-guitar effects on the album, just straight, crunching chords. Most notably, Rick Allen has returned to playing acoustic drums after playing an electronic kit for nearly a decade. The change in approach is apparent and welcome - Def Leppard hasn't sounded so immediate since "Pyromania". Furthermore, they decided to expand their musical vocabulary slightly, working elements of R&B and Funk into the rhythms. Not all of the experiments work, but Def Leppard sound revitalized, particularly when they attack a straightforward rocker. "Slang" would have been even better if they had come up with a set of hooks that sounded as alive as their performance, but the album is a much-needed return to form for the band.
"Slang" is the first album with new material to feature new guitarist Vivian Campbell (Campbell had previously played on B-side collection "Retro Active" in 1993 and on the new song on "Vault" compialtion a year earlier). It charted at #14 on The Billboard 200[6] and #5 on the UK Albums Chart. It is also the only Def Leppard album that does not feature their recognisable logo on the album cover.
