This is just a purple guitar with a bunch of sparks. It is not a Deep Purple lineup. It's a cool picture, but not a lineup. Got that? No left-to-right listing of band members, because they're not in the picture. Nowhere, nohow. Now quit reading the ALT text and enjoy the doggone picture!

Deepest Purple

Buy It!

Deepest Purple (Compliation of Mk.2 and Mk.3 material)

Rating: 9

Reviews: 3

Comments: Quite a good collection of Mk2 songs, with two from Mk3. Includes "Demon's Eye" and "Black Night." Sound quality on my vinyl version was real bad because so much stuff got crammed onto each side. Still, my introduction to the band and a great starting place for anyone. (Dean Webb) (NOTE: The version linked is the same mix as Deepest Purple, and includes Mk1 and Mk2 Reunion material. Great buy...)

It was the first DP record I bought, and, each song on it is a classic. The original lp version didn't have the best possible sound quality, but cd is alright. (Heikki Heino)

Singles A's and B's

Buy It!

Singles A's and B's (Compilation of Mk.1 and Mk.2 singles)

Rating: 9

Reviews: 2

Comments: Easy way to make a nice DP compilation. Both sides from six early singles, so it made some rare tracks easily available. Too bad it spans only 1968-1971. (Heikki Heino)

Live and Blue

Live and Blue (Compilation of Mk.1, 2, 3, and 4 material)

Rating: 9

Reviews: 1

Comments: This CD is a compilation of live tracks (and one studio release) released in 1996 in South Africa only. There are a number of mistakes in track timings, cover art and general info, but don't let this distract you from a great listening experience.This CD is compiled from 3 Connoisseur Collection live CDs, plus the studio outtake (and b-side) "When A Blind Man Cries".... My overall rating is a very big 9 (Including Strange Kind Of Woman would have got it a 10!) (Brian Currin)

Shades 1968-1998
