I'll start the bloodletting & vote for something OTHER than In Rock, which is a very good album.
My choice is Machine Head, not for Smoke on the Water, but for everything else. Highway Star, Maybe I'm A Leo, Lazy, Space Truckin'. To me, this was the natural follow-up to In Rock. I've always liked this album.
Honorable Mention to Perfect Strangers - another pretty good piece of work from the boys.
I got to see them live in Germany in 1986 & they could still rock!

"In Rock" - but only just ahead of "Made in Japan", which is also stunning.

smoke on the water is a boring hard rock song, with a crap bass line and one of Mr Gillans most mediocre singing performances ;)

For me The Book of Taliesyn, because it is very pshychedelic/progressive. Anthem and River Deep Mountain High are superb.

Studio wise I'd have to second the vote for "In Rock." This release accompanied me on many a church youth group meeting as a child. The other youngsters thought I was crazy. Fair to say the youth group meetings didn't last long. Otherwise the vote would go to "Made In Japan." Many a night my friend Mark and I would get stoned and listen to all four sides of the double vinyl. Great memories. Why is everything so much better as a youngster? I guess everything is so new then. Deep Purple used to blow me away. Now I've turned to the Italian scene for a fresh take on prog and I am still blown away at times. Just fewer and further between now. I am also getting into the Spanish prog scene and Polish prog scsene for a fresh take on it.

Yeah, and it's hard to understand why Hawkwind, Uriah Heep, Kate Bush, ELO or Death (just for a few examples) are Prog, but they're here, so consider them Prog-Related.
Oh wait...
That's exactly how Deep Purple are classified

Made in Japan, although te best album for me is "Live in Paris"; it's one of the last performances before Blackmore leaving and it's terrific, although little known.
