    ..................................................................................................

    This is a very scarce limited edition from no less than 30+ years ago, pressed from the 1968 metal masters, the ANALOG sound quality is amazing and exact to the 1968 first issue. This short production run is harder to find (by far) over the '68 Tetragamaton LP.

  • MINT all over => One of the BEST copies you could ever hope to find ...the very first DEEP PURPLE LP, underestimated, hard rock with psychedelic moves ...the band, Deep Purple came into existence because of a musician who never played with the band. Chad Curtis, former drummer of the British Invasion group The Searchers, decided to form a band called Roundabout. He first recruited keyboardist Jon Lord and then guitarist Ritchie Blackmore. He then withdrew from the project but Lord and Blackmore decided to carry on....DEEP PURPLE was born...

    They recruited bassist Nick Simper, later of WARHORSE, vocalist Rod Evans, later of CAPTAIN BEYOND and drummer Ian Paice, and the new band was complete. A name change, from "Roundabout" was in order and Deep Purple was chosen because it was the name of Ritchie Blackmore’s grandmother’s favorite song.

    The original line-up lasted for three albums. They made little impact in their home country of Great Britain but found commercial success in the United States, beginning with this first release, Shades Of Deep Purple, which was issued in July of 1968.

    Looking back on this first release, and the two that followed, they were far different from the relentless hard rock releases that would follow and sell close to 100 million albums worldwide. While the roots of their hard rock sound could be heard in places, there was also a distinct psychedelic sound present, which was representative of the era.

    The best known track, then and now, was “Hush.” Released as a single, it would reach number four on the Billboard Magazine Pop Singles Chart in the United States and was the song that launched their career. They would never have a single chart higher in the United States. It was psychedelic music at its best with a memorable beat.

    “Mandrake Root” was written by Blackmore, Lord, and Paice, and had an improvisational/jam like feel to it. It was the type of hard rock that the band would become famous for in the future.

    The songs all ranged from very good to great. “I’m So Glad,” associated with Cream, was presented in the same format, but lushly filled out, making it feel thick and full bodied, . “Hey Joe” measures up to Jimi Hendrix’s rendition, jabs, ebbs and flows, washing in and over itself so often, that it is quite impossible to tell where the song begins and where it ends ... a psychedelic overture of the first magnitude. The Beatles song, “Help,” is a very creative cover, spiraling on and on into the open universe ... Purple slowed the tempo down to an almost plodding pace until it was far removed from The Beatles original intent for the song. John Lennon said this is way the Beatles should have performed the song.
