Average Rating:
 Rating: - One of the best Deep Purple albumsWith Richie Blackmore gone, there was finally room for change. After a few not so exciting albums, fresh blood was arriving in the form of American guitar maestro Tommy Bolin. He added a completely new dimension to Deep Purple's music making this album one of their best and one of the very few that is still enjoyable to listen to now. Rating:  - A curate's eggDeep Purple's last studio album (dismissing the lucrative but creatively barren reunion from the 80s to the present day) is the only Purple album without Ritchie Blackmore on guitar - in his place is the late Tommy Bolin. It is something of a mixed bag, torn between David Coverdale's straight-ahead rock numbers ('Lady Luck', 'Dealer', 'I Need Love') and more funky, adventurous material courtesy of Bolin and Glenn Hughes ('This Time Around'/'Owed to "G"', "Gettin' Tighter'). The high point of the album comes when these two styles are reconciled on the moody closer 'You Keep on Moving', one of the all-time best Deep Purple tracks. Rating:  - thankfully this was the endA truly terrible record, why oh why did the magnificent Lord and Paice agree to have anything to do with this nonsense?? Only someone with so little talent as Hughes, could make a worse album than Stormbringer. This is easily accomplished, with the help of an equally rubbish Coverdale, and the new man, Bolin. He stepped into the great mans shoes, and failed miserably. In the studio, with lots of help he could be average, however, live he was totally out of his depth....just listen to any of the mark IV live rubbish that is avaliable. I am not allowed to give this no stars, which it deserves, so I rate this an undeserved 1 star. Avoid this like the plague. Rating: - hugely underrated albumI was about 16 when this album came out. Purple were on the ropes with Blackmore leaving and the press could smell a quick kill riding on the back of the new wave of punk and 'rock dinosaurs'. This album was ripped apart by gleeful rock critics at the time. Of course, as time move on attitudes change. Its no surprise that people who hear this album today - especially for the first time - are amazed at how well it stands up. From the opening classic Purple, staight-ahead rock of Comin' Home the album is dotted with classic riffs and driving bass sounds (Glover never got to play like this!). 'Gettin' Tighter' should be a stand up rock/funk classic that everyone knows. The album ends with what should be regarded ... Read More: Rating:  - Don't delay any further and just get itYou don't need the history lesson, you simply need to know that this ranks with anything Purple did before or since. The fact that it was the only studio album to involve Tommy Bolin only adds to its appeal which is in no short supply, largely thanks to the variation of tone - much heavier than its predecessor 'Stormbringer' but matching it for sublety - not a typical Purple virtue! Enjoy.... |
