A BEAUTY! ....Original 1970 first pressing in thick gatefold cover. Harder to find minty clean than you might imagine. Despite the fact of 47 years old, it was a heavily played popular item in the day, most copies by now are well worm out - here is a CLEAN survivor>>>

Deep Purple in Rock was their breakthrough album in Europe and would peak at No. 4 in the UK, remaining in the charts for months. (The band's prior MK I albums had been much better received in North America than in their homeland.) The album was supported by the hugely successful In Rock World Tour which lasted 15 months.

The Deep Purple of 1970 was far different from the Deep Purple of just the year before. Bassist Nick Simper and vocalist Rod Evans had been fired, and bassist Roger Glover and vocalist Ian Gillan had been selected to replace them. They joined holdovers Jon Lord, Ritchie Blackmore, and Ian Paice to form the best-known lineup of the band, referred to as “Mark II.” Gone also was the psychedelic rock, cover songs, and disjointed albums of experimentation. In their place was a brand of hard rock that would strike a chord with millions of fans down through the years. Their musical journey, along with such bands as Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, would change the face of music with their high energy and bone crunching brand of rock.

Deep Purple In Rock, released during June of 1970, was not an immediate overwhelming commercial success in the United States but proved to be their breakthrough release in their native country, as it reached number four on the U.K. album charts.

With this album, they developed a distinctive sound that was different from most of their contemporaries. The heavy rock speed of many of their songs, plus the combination the organ/guitar blitz, set them apart from most of the music of the day. It proved to be a winning combination.

“Speed King” leads off the album in hyper-drive, and immediately announces to the music world that this Is a far different Deep Purple from their “Hush” and “Kentucky Woman” days. Gillan shrieks, “I’m a speed king, see me fly,” as Blackmore and Lord challenge each other with guitar and keyboards. Blackmore’s guitar style on this track established his and Deep Purple’s sound for years to come.

“Bloodsucker” is all Blackmore. While Gillan provides a credible vocal, it is Blackmore’s continuing guitar-mania quest to establish himself as a force in rock music that drives the song.

Side one of the original vinyl release ended with the classic “Child In Time.” This ten minute tour-de-force remains one of their signature songs. It features one of the best vocals of Gillan’s career. The instrumental sound runs counter to the harmony as Blackmore and Lord provide one of their more creative duets of their career together.

The second side of the release turns it on with a screamer: “Into The Fire” and “Living Wreck” and both have odd structures, and while Blackmore and Gillan give it all they've got! Elsewhere, “Flight Of The Rat” is the side’s best track with an equally frenetic heavy-rock mode. The album comes to an end with “Hard Lovin’” which leaves the band exhausted.

Deep Purple In Rock would establish the band as one of the leading practitioners of hard rock, a position they still occupy over four decades later. It is an album that has held up well down through the years and is always worth a listen or two. Just don’t forget to turn up the volume all the way. It can be earth-shaking.
