The best deep purple offshoot record occurred in 1971. When they got rid of their singer Rod Evans, he formed a group called Captain Beyond with the album of the same name. Captain Beyond is amazing psychedelic hard rock. Entire record is tight.
Couldn’t agree more!!
But before the timeline of todays topic.
Also before the timeline, Nick Simper in Warhorse and Butterfly Ball with many people with Deep Purple connections.
I with ya. DP timeline is almost 2 centuries.@@seaoftranquilityprog
I have that album on LP.
I think Pete should do a tour of Ivy League universities wearing his 'Lovehunter' T-shirt to encourage freedom of expression.
it's funny to think 'Lovehunter' shirt would trigger people so much more nowadays than 'Born Again' shirt ever could.
@@arto2533 its just woman's butt,...what IS THE BIG DEAL????????good lord 😫
GREAT episode. Really nice seeing GILLAN (the band) getting some big respect.
These themed shows kick butt. To those who celebrate EASTER/ happy / HEALTHY. Thx. Pete &. Martin 👍💯
Definitely. Had a great time in chat as always. Pete and Martin are definitely one of my favorite segments on the channel. 👍🤘
Happy resurrection day !
🍎an easter apple from Richie Blackmore ...ha ha
@@gregoryg3256 / love it. Thank you 👍💯
@@garyjoyce2160u got it happy easter
1. Rainbow Rising 2. Clear Air Turbulence 3. Gillan - Mr Universe 4. Hughes/Thrall
I credit Clear Air Turbulence as the album that broadened my musical tastes (Along with Glenn Hughes - Play Me Out).
Incidentally, the Clear Air Turbulence cover is by the artist Chris Foss, and I actually have a limited edition print on my living room wall.
So many to chose from though.
I loved Gillan in purple....
I loved Chris Foss' art in the 70's at school....So CLEAR AIR TURBULENCE really tied the room together....
I loved listening to this and it is a useful reminder of which off shoot LP's I was fond of...my top five was always dependent on when I first heard the material after DP split...5 - Gillan - Mr Universe 4 - Roger Glover - Elements 3 - David Coverdale - Northwinds 2 - Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow 1 - Rainbow - Rising.
Just watched the replay. Thanks for the shout out guys. Fun show last night! Cheers
There's too many to even attempt (and I don't own several) so I'll just put my favorite one from each member (with apologies to Nick Simper):
Ian Gillan: Gillan - Mr. Universe
David Coverdale: Whitesnake - Ready an' Willing
Ritchie Blackmore: Rainbow - Rising
Tommy Bolin - Private Eyes
Roger Glover: Rainbow - Down to Earth
Glenn Hughes: Hughes/Thrall
Jon Lord: Whitesnake - Saints & Sinners
Ian Paice: Gary Moore - Corridors of Power
NIce list, we are closely aligned on this one.
@@garyh.238 👍
I'm beginning to wonder how anyone has even had enough time in their life to have listened to so much music . Like that's all they did and nothing else? Come on I've heard a lot of great rock and still do . But to be a critic ?
Gillan were my favourite Purple off shoot.Its a shame how it all ended.
Would love to see Pete and Martin tackle Led Zeppelin offshoot albums post-breakup ('82 to present day.) Solo Robert Plant, the Firm, Coverdale/Page, Page/Plant, Them Crooked Vultures, etc.
I would be shocked if they never did that.
Coverdale Page smokes everything else for me
@@logancollins7097 that might be my fav yea
@@matg5760 I do enjoy those first 5 or so Plant solo albums though
@@logancollins7097 I haven't fully explored his catalog. I have fate of nations. Next we can have a hager , Roth, charone catalog ranking . Lol.
1.Teaser
2.Rising
3.Play me out
4.Sarabande
5. Snakebite
This was hard!
1. Rainbow Rising
2. Gillan Mr. Universe
3. Whitesnake Slide it in
4. Black Sabbath Born again
Put double trouble in at #3 and drop slide it in to #5 and we are in agreement.
Great list!
Popoff and Pardo are at it again and finally able to once again watch the episode premiere. The knowledge of Martin and Pete and their commitment to be able to do this sort of overwhelming ranking task makes for a fascinating watch. During a recent discussion with my older brother, he told me he had seen Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin separately in concert in the late 60s/early 70s. Never new that before. Likely because he didn't want his kid brother tagging along at the time. His conclusion? Deep Purple rocked and Led Zeppelin sort of sucked (and he loves the studio albums of each band). So that made this even more interesting to watch as well. Also reminds me of how many of these albums still need be visited or revisited. Looking forward to the Thin UFO Lizzy ranking to come next. Thanks, gents, for this episode. There ya go!
Never saw either band live but many have commented on the somewhat 'sloppy' nature of LZ live shows so that doesn't really surprise me. Still, an all time great band, I can imagine their live shows (especially post 4th album) were EVENTS as much as they were music concerts
I know The Butterfly Ball doesn't qualify, but if it did.....easily top 5....maybe top 3. I just adore it!
I bought that album and to this day I have never played it. Maybe there's a treat waiting on there for me?🤷♂
1. Rainbow - Rising
2. Rainbow - Long Live Rock and Roll
3. Rainbow - Down to Earth
Damn Right.
A Rainbow fan? ;)
@@domielakrabi3276 I like those albums that's all. I'm not a fan of Deep Purple and especially Ian Gillan. But Rainbow that's a different story.
No one is as good as ronnie
Maybe the greateast ranking i ever watched,very good
Martin really going off on Gary Moore. Hughes Thrall is awesome.
HUGHES/THRALL is phenomenal. Martin is just a dude with really headscratching taste at times.
1. Gillan - Glory Road
2. Whitesnake - Ready an´ Willing
3. Rainbow - Rising
4. Rainbow - Long Live Rock and Roll
5. Gary Moore - Corridors
6. Whitesnake - Come an´ Get It
7. Gillan - Double Trouble
8. Gary Moore - Victims Of The Future
9. Whitesnake - Lovehunter
10. Gillan - Future Shock
Apart from maybe inserting “Born again” somewhere, your list is the same as mine 😃👌🏻
Maybe the best list I've seen here. Not sure why everyone else is picking Mr. Universe as the best Gillan album. Glory Road seems pretty clearly to me,to be the best thing Gillan band did. I agree with the other reply here,that would have found Born Again a spot in the top 10.
@@brucefranklin6295 To be honest, I have missed Mr Universe for different reasons and now the price is crazy for used copies. But I listened to it on UA-cam now and would probably rank it like Future Shock and Double Trouble.
@@brucefranklin6295 I've never rated Glory Road very highly, Mr Universe was their best for me, followed by Future Shock.
@@CB-xr1eg Everyone has their own favorites. One of the reasons Mr. Universe comes in 3rd for me is that the production is not as good as Glory Rd or Future Shock.The other reason is that side 2 of Mr. Universe is weak. Colin Towns wrote all the music on Mr. Universe. Torme and McCoy were more involved on Glory Rd. I do love a number of songs on Mr. Universe though. Roller is one of my very favorite Gillan songs.
I LOVE Northwinds, sometimes more than any of the Whitesnake albums.
What about Bernie Marsdens soloalbums? Both Lord and Paice played on And About Time Too and Look At Me Now.
Yes. This was an omission on their part. And About Time Too is an excellent album.
Totally agree. If you can have Gary Moore in here (not sure why he is tbh) then he should have more rights as he was in Whitesnake.
@@keithshapland903 Gary Moore was *never* in Whitesnake, so as you say, not sure why he is here.
Gary Moore absolute legend
It's still astounding, and impressive, how much influence Ritchie had over everyone who played with him.
Is there any other artist who had that same web of influence?
Frank Zappa and Miles Davis to name two...
@@seaoftranquilityprog good choices!
Hendrix (not as many due to his short time with us but I think it's safe to say everyone who came in contact with him took something away - including Davis & Zappa. Also had a hand in the development of an entirely new music genre - fusion. And the influence continues almost 55 years later). John Mayall
David Bowie.
I haven't watched this yet, but choosing between _Rainbow Rising_ and _Slide it In_ as number one had to be a huge task for Pete.
Great episode. You missed the 2 albums from Nick Simper's Fandango.
I wish Martin would get a decent mic setup like Pete. Every time he goes off-mic you can't hear a word, and it clearly gets in the way when he's trying to show stuff.
Wow! UFO Thin Lizzy ranking!🤯. Can’t wait!
Thanks for this video. I’m going to go check out Gillian and Born Again now
Shocked to see martin talk like that about Gary. These are literally some of my favourite albums of all time.
He listens to Punk and thinks it's the greatest thing ever, what would you expect?
@@eldorado852Liking Punk and liking Gary are not mutually exclusive imo. I love listening to him though. You either get very sophisticated points that are interesting to think about or stuff that makes you think he‘s on acid.
Another Gary Moore fan here. Those two albums are great. I think plenty don't agree with Martin on these albums and that's okay :)
Yes I said the same thing, he replied saying the same rubbish, likes his punk and other distorted noise to much.
I enjoy the couple of Nick Simper's Fandango albums, nice straightforward melodic rock featuring a couple of dudes from Warhorse - not to be confused with the 70s JLT and Rick Blakemore band of the same name, of course! And I wish Rod Evans sang on Dawn Explosion by Captain Beyond, there's an interesting demo version of the song 'Icarus' with him on vocals.
There would be even more if you included Nick Simper and Rod Evans offshoots.
Just 3 extra albums I'm pretty sure.
Only members from Mk 2 reunion counts, I think.
Fuck yeah that first Captain Beyond is badass.
@@mikek8553 that one wouldn’t count here. Only the second one.
@thekivster Yeah just noticed that
Martin's disrespect for Gary Moore is really sad. Not liking Back on the Streets with Parisienne Walkways? Really? But really not liking Corridors of Power? Come on. He's a weird dude. And wrong. Very wrong.
Gary Moore wouldn't have cared. He stands as one of the greats.
Martin will probably put Black Rose at the bottom next week. 🙄
Doesn't everybody have a right to their own opinion? Even Martin can't like all the music in the world! 😅
@@EvilVonRetee He definitely doesn't.
Martin is known to have weird taste.
Thanks, Pete & Martin!
Always interesting to listen to you guys
Great episode. Look forward to the UFO and Lizzy rankings. In the UK Thin Lizzy were a much bigger band than UFO sales wise.
Northwinds is so much better than the first. i think it is one of the best album he ever did. i love it. Laso Ian Gillan band i find them really good. The Live album in japan is extraordinary. Their Child in time is awesome.
"Laso"?

Down to Earth
Rising
Slide it in
Straight Between the Eyes
Born Again
Really enjoyed this show and looking forward to next week ! I wonder how many viewers have heard all 33 albums here, certainly not me. I’m going to be contrary because not only is Hughes/Thrall my favourite of these albums (that I’ve listened to) but it is my favourite studio album of all time. I remember at the time a review (probably from Sounds) said that it sounded like Pat Thrall was playing in handcuffs and then the last track on side 1 Muscle and Blood started which sounds like nothing else on the album.
For years Whitesnake was my favourite band and I bought every album that had David Coverdale singing on it. I always preferred Northwinds to White Snake although neither is very good and I rank Play Me Out much higher. The “album” that Martin referred to with the Snakebite EP on one side and (the best) songs from Northwinds on the other is pretty good.
The first album I ever bought was Futureshock, when it was “new” and the first proper concert I ever attended was Gillan on the Double Trouble tour, although as far as I can remember the album wasn’t released when I saw them. Neither Martin or Pete mentioned the song “Sunbeam” but I couldn’t get the riff out of my head even though I’d only heard the song once. When we turned up at the concert I was very disappointed to find out that Bernie Tormé was no longer in the band as I’d really been looking forward to seeing him. Everybody on SoT raves about the song Mr Universe but I always preferred Fighting Man. I hadn’t listened to Fighting Man for years and played it a couple of years ago, I thought to myself how the **** did I prefer David Coverdale over Ian Gillan ?
Corridors of Power - just immense !
My obsession with Blackmore started in 1979 age 12 with Since you been gone and that took me down a rabbit hole with Purple, Whitesnake etc
I always found these playful rhymy lyrics delightful:
I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
Oh, be tender, girl, be tender
Can't you feel the love that I send ya?
I surrender
Deep Purple offshoots truly shaped future rock. Thank God they changed lineups to develop all these great albums. Each of those groups spurred on other good groups, like Plant P when Tony Carey left Rainbow. The Deep Purple family tree is very full and bared a bunch of taste fruit.
Hmmm, shaped future rock... I'd tend to disagree, I think... well, it's an interesting question - Whitesnake in the early 80s and Rainbow in the '70s maybe?
Agree there was some great stuff released from them all. I still do not understand how Gary Moore albums get in here as he was a leader but never in purple.
@@keithshapland903because of Ian Paice
Loved this episode. Not familiar with the Gillan catalog, but now I have some albums to explore. I agree with Pete that Gary Moore's "Corridors of Power" is a killer album. Tommy Bolin's "Private Eyes" is one of my all-time favorite albums, and I think it benefits from its musical diversity. It is definitely in my top 5. Also, love the PAL-Malice in Wonderland album a lot. Favorite Whitesnake album would be "Come and Get It." Of course, "Rainbow Rising" is a classic, but my favorite Rainbow song is "Man on a Silver Mountain" from the debut.
Start with Ian Gillian Mr. Universe , Glory Road',Future Shock,Magic'Double Trouble all great. Clear Air turbulence sucked.
The Beautiful essense of art is; the fact that it is subjective and not objective.
1 Rising. 2 Mr Universe. 3 Down to Earth. I never did care very much about Whitesnake, so Coverdale's solo albums rate as my favourites of his. Northwinds might make number four on my list. I like albums with a diversity of styles. It's why I can't listen to bands like Motorhead or AC/DC for more than one side of an album. Interesting point about how invested Ian Gillan was in his various projects. I think he just leaned very heavily on his writing partners to set the tone and we know he tended to summon up lyrics at the last moment. But Colin Towns was a constant factor, and main writer, between IGB and Gillan, so Ian obviously had some control over the changing direction of the band.
Colin Towns was massively underrated. Treated dreadfully too by the sounds of it.
@@Gonzoweb69 I think so as well. But he's done very well since, so perhaps he can look back and think it was all for the best.
No 1 is Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow. Apparently Blackmore was playing the riff for Man on the silver mountain during the making of Stormbringer and told the rest of Deep Purple mk3 they couldn't have it at which point they knew the game was up.
Yeah, it didn't even make their cut, which is odd.
Not sure if it's true but I once read that Ritchie had asked David Coverdale to form a band with him outside of Deep Purple. Coverdale listened to some demos and told Blackmore, *The world doesn't need another Machine Head"
@@CB-xr1eg Interesting. Blackmore and Coverdale didn't get on and didn't even speak for decades after Blackmore left Purple apart from a well documented brawl on a corridor floor in front of Queen band members so I wasn't aware of this
@@davidbewick9208 From what I remember it happened while they were both still members of |Deep Purple. I'm not saying it actually happened, but I do remember reading it or hearing it somewhere.
@@CB-xr1eg Ah ok. It is possible then.
1-Rising
2-Slide it in
3-Play me out
4-Straight between the eyes
5-Teaser
Stargazer is one of those songs that will live forever.
I absolutely love LA Connection -but might be the only one! Everyone always seem to dismiss
No, you're not the only one, I love it too, and the whole album!
Long live rock and roll number one for me. Classic. Great songs.
I agree..Captain Beyond is the greatest album ever recorded..even when I play it now, it's stunning..amazed at what those musicians created. Bobby Caldwell was the best..blew away Ginger,BonhamCozy..all of them.
Good discussion, I think Deep Purple has produced so much excellent and varied music, both as band and through the various offshoots. Love Rainbow but Gillan were my favourite Purple spin-off, all talented musicians and they had loads of energy plus a unique image and sound. It's weird the way they've almost been forgotten despite the success they had at the time. All five of their studio albums are good to excellent - six if you include the Japanese Album.
I remember doing a six degrees of separation thing about 40 years ago, starting with Deep Purple . You wouldn't believe the amount of bands it encompasses. This Martin kid sounds contrarian to me. Probably from the interior. Good talk guys!
Go Jays Go !!
Yes zillions, it's my single biggest such "family" playlist...My DP/related playlist is 1,000 tracks deep & includes some 35 different bands/teamups/projects, but that's nowhere near six degrees. I keep to direct inclusion of DP members - and exclude things like Steve Morse/solo & Dregs, Gary Moore/related, and Bolin/related. Just including those I'd be up around 1,500 tracks or so (or more). No idea what six degrees of separation would do to that list - easily 100+ bands...Go (Red) Sox!
This was great !
Look forward to the UFO / Lizzy episode.
Don’t hold back Martin, tell us how you really feel 🤪😂 speaking on your first 10
"crap" 🤣
Slide it In was released in 1984 though
We had 2 early 1984 albums here, but both came before the DP reunion later that year.
@@seaoftranquilityprog Jon Lord
Nice to see so many Gillan albums appreciated! But yeah, lots of really, really good albums. Great lists, even if I disagree with certain choices. But these are all cool hard rock albums.
Picking my favourite one / maximum two from several Purple family members within the time frame 1976-83.
1) Rainbow (ie: Ritchie Blackmore) - Rising
2) Gillan - Mr. Universe
3) Rainbow (with Roger Glover) - Down to Earth
4) Black Sabbath (with Ian Gillan) - Born Again
5) Whitesnake (with Coverdale, Lord & Paice) - Ready & Willing
6) Glenn Hughes - Hughes / Thrall
7) Tommy Bolin - Teaser
8) Gary Moore (with Ian Paice) - Corridors of Power
9) Tommy Bolin - Private Eyes
10) Jon Lord - Before I Forget
I like this concept, you could actually go beyond 83, albums I also like are the Hughes/Turner Project and Coverdale/Page.
I love Straight Between the Eyes. It's a desert island disc for me.
Happy Easter! I have a certain soft spot for Down to Earth, since it was one of the first albums I ever bought (IIRC, for my 8th birthday in 1982). However, I don't think it's even nearly as good as MP thinks! Actually, not sure if I would rank it above Difficult to Cure or Straight Between the Eyes. "Danger Zone" (my fav), "Lost in Hollywood" and "Eyes of the World" are all terrific, "Since You Been Gone" and "All Night Long" are catchy but a bit superficial, and the rest I can't even recall. Rising is certainly superior imo.
Great episode! I was kind of expecting the first Phenomena to be included...
Decent point. While Hughes is not on every track, as Pete points out, Ian Paice is not on every Gary Moore track either.
Phenomena came out after Perfect Strangers. We only did albums after Come Taste the band and up to PS.
Gotcha... That'll teach me to pay attention to the details
The reason MLB teams (at least in NE and Midwest) have a day off after the opening day is because they know opening day generates a big gate, but the weather is often crappy so they leave the next day open, in case of postponement. Up the snake!
Good to see such love for Down To Earth from Martin. That came out when I was just starting to get interested in hard rock and immediately became my favorite album (and Rainbow my favorite group, later supplanted by Deep Purple). Born Again is also a favorite; first time I saw it in the store, I was floored by the portraits on the back cover: "What? The guy from Deep Purple is singing for Black Sabbath?" It deserves the fanatical cult following that it has gained over the years.
So much great music created by DP alumni. My faves are RAINBOW -LLRNR / 'Rising', WHITESNAKE - CAGIt, HUGHES/THRALL and GILLAN - 'Double Trouble'. All phenomenal.
So it's Ireland v England next week, should be fun.
Pete, MLB has a weird schedule in the first few weeks of the season....with extra days off....so they can quickly make up the inevitable early rain postponements. The Mets (and my Phillies) were originally scheduled off today and - lo and behold - they were rained-out yesterday so they're playing today instead.
Great show/subject today. I like Rainbow even more than DP, so you can guess what's at the top of my rankings on this list!
I've never heard the Doogie Howser Rainbow, and I still put Down to Earth below that in my Rainbow rankings. Bonnet sounds like he's 80 years old.
Doogie Howser? It's Doogie White.
@@CB-xr1eg ha! Sorry, those are the only two famous Doogies I know. I don't know which one is worse to be mistaken for, an unrealistic TV kid doctor or a barely relevant journeyman RnR singer.
@@trv411 "The only two famous Doogies I know." "a barely relevant journeyman RnR singer." So which is he, famous or barely relevant?🤔 And why not just own up to a mistake instead of leaving a shitty comment? Sucks to be you I guess.
Like Martin, I could not hear Since You’ve Been Gone anymore and be fine with it. But the sad part is that I never gave the rest of the album a chance…and man, was that a mistake. Dio is the god, but damn! Do I love me some Bonnet!
Since You've Been Gone is a great song, power pop at it's best, and it gave Ritchie the chart hit he was wanting.
"Rising" is one of the best albums ever IMHO!
I wonder if Pete will review the new ‘Machine Head’ super deluxe edition.
As a young man with far to little money I managed to buy the right albums in retro. The best album is of course is Whitesnake first or is the second. It is black and hold amazing songs. Still one of my favs. Blues with hardrock is my thing. Greetings from Sweden.
20 minutes in and it's pretty clear that Martin's word of the day is CRAP.🤣 I disagree with many of his choices but he's entitled to his opinion.
I wonder if either Pete or Martin has noticed that the Gillan logo changed slightly after Mr Universe?
It was because they had the line of the G through the 2 letter ls making it read as Gittan and not Gillan.. They had changed it by the time Glory Road was released.
As for Ian not really caring about the band, I would dispute that for one reason. The band was named after him. If he really wasn't that invested he/they would have picked a different band name.
Right?... he also finishes a lot of sentences seeking approvement...RIGHT
@@shadhansen739 Right!👍 Looking at Pete's expressions, it's pretty clear he doesn't always agree with Martin either.
Hey Pete and Martin, don't know if you guys take recommendations but crossing over this idea with the 2000s albums of Opeth, Dream Theater, Porcupine Tree and Mastodon piques my interests and I know your big fans of those bands, thanks.
There are some compilations for Rock-DJs here in Germany called Munich City Nights. One of these featured Bourèe from Jon Lord‘s Sarabande, that is why this song is rather popular in southern Germany. This song was also used in the German crime series Derrick in the 70s. I am a big fan of Sarabande. And it has the woman from the Lovehunter cover! A Deep Purple Family song you did not mention but which I love to death is Time Will Tell by Nick Simper‘s Fandango.
"Run with the Wolf" is a magnificent track, certainly up there with "Stargazer", "A Light in the Black" and "Tarot Woman" on "Rising". It's one of Dio's greatest moments.
So why is Roger Glover- Elements last place? You didn’t really explain why.
Because we liked it the least…
@@seaoftranquilityprog ok lol
There are always problems with lists of this kind. For example I would have placed Down to Earth very close to the bottom. I would also place Clear Air Turbulance and Scarabus close to the top. But largely their placings were reasonable.
@@seaoftranquilityprog Peat and Martin - what a great ranking (as always). I would rank all DEEP PURPLE side albums like you - PETE. Pete, I have a suggestion for you (personal), is there a chance for a ranking of the studio and concert albums released by LACUNA COIL? You mentioned several times that you like them. There are many concerts, compilations and boxes on the market from famous and legendary artists. Will you also discuss them on the channel with many guests? Reviews of compilations and concerts themselves would be desirable. As for Lacuna Coil - it is an important band, and there is not a single competent discussion of their discography on the Internet. May you be the first - Pete. Lacuna Coil is quite a popular band, so the lack of such a ranking is surprising. Pete, are you or your guests also planning to discuss the work of Promised Land, Myrath or Type O Negative? You also mentioned the Behemoth group several times, maybe a ranking of their albums would be desirable? Pete, are you planning on discussing the new Imperial Triumphant album? I was surprised that you didn't notice the release of a new album by Ihsahn (frontman of Darkthrone) titled "Ihsahn". Regular nad orchestral version of that album are big and very important for this year... so far. When you find time, take a look at Myrkur's work. The singer and composer has an excellent voice and perfectly combines post-black metal with Scandinavian folk and a pinch of art pop. Cellar Darling's album "The Spell" is also a musical gem that you should try to discover. So many of my questions and suggestions. Pete, I hope you'll find time to respond in your busy schedule. Your loyal fan - Gregory.
@@davidhalliwell1565good to know you approve of Pete and Martin’s personal opinions
Let’s go Giants! And great topic, loving these
Great episode. I really need to catch up or first time listen to a bunch of these. Especially the Gillian.
Gillan* Why so many people put the extra "I" in his name is puzzling.
A very interesting watch. Very difficult to choose if I was in the same position. I'd likely have a couple of Whitesnake and one Rainbow. Slide it in, Come an' Get It and Long Live Rock and Roll. LA Connection is quirky but always listenable. I love the Saints and Sinners cover.
Run With the Wolf , and Do You Close Your Eyes are my favorite Rainbow albums
You mean songs.
I agree with Martin Lost in Hollywood I play the most...But Light in the Black just pips my fav Rainbow track.
Keep It Warm....
1. Rising
2. Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow
3. Saints and Sinners
4. Mr. Universe
Jon Lord - Before I Forget (album version, with no cd extra tracks) (the worst: Country Diary OST)
Ian Gillan - Glory Road (the worst: IGB's Child in Time)
Roger Glover - The Mask (the worst: Elements)
Ian Paice - PAL (the worst: Gary Moore's Victims of the Future)
Blacks - Rising (the worst: Bent out of shape)
Coverdale: Come & Get It (the worst: Whitesnake, the first solo)
Hugues: Hugues & Thrall (the worst: Play me out)
Both Martin and Pete ranked Jon Lords "Before I Forget" very low. I think it's a fun album. Very cathcy, melodic and poppy. Not sure where I would rank it compared to everything here but certainly a bit higher than these two gentlemen.
With the Ian Paice/Gary Moore stuff I am surely more like Pete. I think those two records has some of the best songs on any of these records. Both would probably be in my top ten here!
Martin is a Punk Rock fan foremost. Its obvious in what he prefers musically. He has a typical Record Store owner dislike for Heavy Metal. Very eclectic tastes in music. He may write a lot of books about Metal, but I doubt anyone will hear Mercyful Fate - Devil Eyes blasting from his car stereo.
Interesting to hear Martin call a Whitesnake album a Kiss album. Check out Medicine Man and God Of Thunder. It's a bit odd that Gary Moore is included, and comes so high in Pete's list, but I don't make the rules. I love Corridors Of Power, though.
Because if Ian Paice being there.
Thin Lizzy and UFO! I cant hardly wait!
Great show again - enjoyed it a lot!!! It's a really hard task to rank 33 albums.
Pete, I wondered Northwinds ranks so low at your list - I like this one a lot, maybe more than Trouble, "Breakdown" is so fast & heavy. As a big Jon Lord fan I would have his albums ranked much higher. My top five: 1. Slide it in 2. Mr. Universe 3. Ready an' Willin' 4. Rising 5. Tommy Bolin
Breakdown is a song about Deep Purple played in the style of Deep Purple.
I really don't get the love for Born Again. I got it when it came out, put it in its sleeve after listening to it and threw it across my room...and I still feel the same way
1) Black Sabbath .. Born Again
2) Tommy Bolin .. Private Eyes

Rising
Slide it In
Come and Get It
Gigue is pronounce /ZHēɡ/. It is a type of Renaissance music. Usually played on a Lute (or classical guitar now) and was often "parlor music" of the period.
can you extend out to 84 or 85 and get Roger Glover's awesome The Mask?
Numero uno...
1-Slide It In
2-Rising
3-Born Again
Leave it to SEA of TRANQUILITY, this is the freshest idea for a ranking show I can recall. Could definitely see it working for the great singers who bounced around ala Paul Rodgers, Glenn Hughes, DIO or guitarists like Sykes or VAI
EXCELLENT PICKS !!!
There are a LOT of albums that branched out of deep purple
Maybe THE understatement of the year...🤷♂
A heck of a lot, but they just picked their favourites.
Clearly their contemporaries didn't have the depth of talent.
I doubt there are any groups that have as many offshoots and offshoots of the offshoots as the Deep Purple family tree. It’s a genre unto itself.
Just incredible the amount of great music that came after Deep Purple it's clearly the most amazing and interesting family tree of all British music, I think.
