Deep Purple


Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in 1968. They're known around the world as one of the god-fathers of heavy metal/hard rock. The band was formed in Hertford, the band's members currently consist of vocalist Ian Gillan, drummer Ian Paice, guitarist Steve Morse, bassist Roger Glover and keyboardist Don Airey. Deep Purple's been a giant influence on tons of bands all around the world. Deep purple combines different styles of genres like progressive rock, classic music, blues and psychedelic rock.

The band released their debut album Shades of Deep Purple in 1968, the album didn't do so well sales-wise in the UK, but in the US, the album was a huge success. Deep Purple went on to release 15 more studio albums including a couple live albums. My personal favorite album is Deep Purple in Rock

In my opinion, Deep Purple is one of the greatest bands of the era...
