MACHINE HEAD

It's really hard to say anything bad about this album.....It contains the most famous Deep Purple song ever (Smoke on the Water).....and 3 other absolute classic radio staples....... including Lazy....which ranks as my second favourite Purple song.....behind Child in Time..... There are no real weak points at all.....Deep Purple was definitely following a successful formula by this point.....but gosh darn....this album Rocks !.......so now the tough part comes.....this is a masterpiece of Rock music......but it's not that progressive....so does that mean a 5 star rating on this site???......guess not.....it is not a masterpiece of progreesive music.....but I would call it an excellent addition to any prog music collection....
