JamieTwort: Top 10 Deep Purple Albums

JamieTwort 05.23.11	1-3 are pretty much interchangeable.
Nagrarok 05.23.11	My top 5 would be exactly the same with Machine Head on 2 and In Rock on 3, though they are close. Haven't heard 9, 10 is boring.
JamieTwort 05.23.11	10 is rather on the dull side but Bad Attitude rocks pretty hard. 9 is a great live album, I wrote a review for it a while back.
JamieTwort 05.23.11	Deep Purple need more love around here.
sumyunguy 05.23.11	I completely agree. One of the most underrated bands ever. I like Stormbringer so high. Critics generally consider it a flop after Burn, and I absolutely love every song on it, especially You Can't Do It Right. I would probably have put Come Taste the Band at 10 instead of HOBL and Purpendicular at 9. Both very underrated.
BigHans 05.23.11	1-5 rule hard
Nagrarok 05.23.11	They really can't be called underrated, especially Mk. II. Machine Head is regarded as a classic, after all. As for here, yes, they don't get the attention they deserve.
sumyunguy 05.23.11	Well, for example, out of the Big Three (Zepp, Sabbath and Purple) DP is easily the least popular and least known. Sure most people know Smoke on the Water and Hush but usually not more. In fact, member for member, DP is probably the most talented out of the three. I don't mean underrated in rock circles, I mean in popular culture.

I do actually agree with this completely, it probbably was the 'ever' part that made me disagree, since there are many bands with crazy talent that never got remotely near DP's level of popularity. On a side note, I'm pretty sure I never even heard Hush until I started listening to the lesser known parts of their discog.
JamieTwort 05.24.11	"I would probably have put Come Taste the Band at 10 instead of HOBL" I did consider putting CTTB on here and I agree it is pretty underrated but it just doesn't feel like a true Deep Purple album somehow. In hindsight I probably should have put it at 10 instead of HOBL. "Well, for example, out of the Big Three (Zepp, Sabbath and Purple) DP is easily the least popular and least known. Sure most people know Smoke on the Water and Hush but usually not more. In fact, member for member, DP is probably the most talented out of the three.

JamieTwort 05.24.11	Edited to include Come Taste the Band. Though I'm sure Nag will disagree, it's a decent album.
tiesthatbind 05.24.11	Machine Head is all I've heard but it rules so hard. I need to listen to 2.
Nagrarok 05.24.11	'Though I'm sure Nag will disagree, it's a decent album.' I have been feeling I may have been a little harsh on that one, though I'm not going to bother relistening with so many albums on my list. 'Machine Head is all I've heard but it rules so hard. I need to listen to 2.' Please do include 1 in that, the live takes of the In Rock and Machine Head songs are amazing.
tiesthatbind 05.24.11	I will add that to the list as well then.
