Deep Purple made lots of compilation. I think in fact it's the fourth one, after Deep Purple Mark I & II (double vinyl), 24 caracts Purple and Deep Purple A's & B'sides.

It's always difficult to make a compilation to satisfy everybody, but here you have one of the best-done one. Good choice of the songs, a whole hour of music even on vinyl, the compilation covers the best periode of Deep Purple, and you have 12 songs to have an idea of what they were.

Note that only Speed King was shorten for the occasion, even if other songs were shorten on single.

At last, you have only studio versions. Some will find it good, others not.

Five stars because here is really the best of Deep Purple in studio at its summit, five stars because it's one of the best compilation ever released. This should be their only one, otherwise all others sould be compilations of other moments...
