Deep Purple - Burn - The Ultimate Critical Review
Background Information: Deep Purple [Top] Deep Purple is a British rock group. They were one of the first & most famous hard rock bands & are considered pioneers of heavy metal. Despite their association with the sub-genre, Deep Purple has never been purely a heavy metal band, though many later heavy metal bands cite their influence. The group has frequently changed styles & lineups over the years, but has always included virtuoso players in its ranks & placed a high priority on musicianship. Some incarnations of Deep Purple have brought aspects of jazz to a rock context due to their frequent use of their songs as vehicles for extended & sophisticated solos. In May 1965, a band called Episode Six became popular on the British music scene & became particularly popular in the mid-sixties. It featured Ian Gillan on vocals, Graham Dimmock on guitar, Roger Glover on bass, Tony Lander on guitar, Sheila Dimmock on keyboards & Harvey Shields on the drums. Two years later, a band called The Flowerpot Men & their Garden was formed, formerly known as The Ivy League. It was concentrated on a trio of singers.
