    Deep Purple - Deepest Purple/Very Best Of (1980)

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 9, 2006

    Pros: Every well known 70's Purple track in one place....

    Cons: Nothing....

    A short Purple review on their best greatest hits release in their career. This is basically what real Purple was in the 1970's with the nucleus of Blackmore/Lord/Paice with Ian Gillan and Roger Glover on all of the tracks save 2, David Coverdale... and Glen Hughes are on the others. The collection takes the best songs from the breakthrough UK single "Black Night" in 1970 to Blackmore's last DP album in the 70's "Stormbringer" from '74 before he formed Rainbow. The collection shuns everything from the MKI lineup of Evans and Simper which was more of a Pop/Rock direction anyhow and the sole Mk IV album with Tommy Bolin. Summing it up....I believe this is the best CD to get for a new fan of DP...excellent introduction. Theres a newer updated version of this...but this is by far the best one...My first taste of the group and the inspiration for my MySpace site....with Blackmore's signature Fender Strat sparking away.

    this is a kick butt album

    this is a kick butt album of a band that went through more changes like me changing clothes. these guys are the progressive, metal rock n roll gods. switching between singers like ritchie blackmore to david coverdale they remind me of my metal band i...n high school "ODDeSSeY" Read more Less

    Very Good Compilation

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 25, 2001

    I got this album as a spotty teenager
    a couple of years after it came out.

    Its the ideal record to discover purple's best tunes. The only gripe is that it focus entirely on the mark ii and iii lineups -but hey there are other compliations available,

    Excellent collection

    Excellent collection of Mark II and III era. Contains two songs (Black Night and Demon's Eye) not on any previous U.S. record at the time this disc was released. A great introduction or addition to a collection.
