Who Do We Think We Are

Deep Purple

A bluesier, more fatigued side of the Mark II lineup. Heavy on groove and organ-drenched grit, it captures a legendary band at the edge of exhaustion.

Find on Amazon

The sound of the world's biggest band getting a bit cranky and very bluesy in a mobile recording truck.

A weary but professional display of hard rock mastery colored by internal tension and bluesy detours.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden shift into the dreamy, piano-led bridge of Woman From Tokyo that feels like a brief moment of peace.
Jon Lord's frantic, percussive organ solo on Rat Bat Blue that mimics a mechanical breakdown.
The slow-burn blues transition in Place in Line where the guitar finally boils over into a searing solo.
