COME TASTE THE BAND

The sequence "This Time Around" and "Owed To G" is, in my opinion, the best of this good album of hard rock (it is a good exemple of how this style of rock is or was influenced by the Blues). As the majority of the previous albuns of Deep Purple, you will not find progressive music there. Maybe, some progressive elements are present in specific tracks, not in the entire album. I like it so much, but I still have some difficulties with proto-prog genre classification criteria.
