The story of Deep Purple is one of the most compelling sagas in rock history. Formed in the late 1960s, Deep Purple became heavy metal pioneers in the 1970s with a string of bestselling albums that are now considered classics. Torn apart by personal and musical differences, the group reformed in 1984, only to find their status as elder statesmen compromised by renewed in-fighting.
The Complete Deep Purple traces the turbulent history of this enigmatic band and assesses its creative achievements. The book includes eight pages of rare stills, a rundown of band members' solo projects and a track-by-track analysis of every studio album, from 1968's Shades of Deep Purple to 2003's Bananas. |
