Enter Roger Glover and Ian Gillan on bass and vocals and the classic DEEP PURPLE lineup had arrived. This was the first studio album released by this lineup known as Mark II by DEEP PURPLE fans. This isn't as good as "Machine Head" in my opinion but it does offer up one of DEEP PURPLE's best tracks in "Child In Time" which over-shadows everything else on here. It's amazing though how powerful and dynamic this record is compared to their first three albums. You wouldn't know it was the same band. "Flight Of The Rat" and "Hard Lovin' Man" round out my top three tracks on here.
