The powerful title-track, the melodic ''Soldier of Fortune'' and even the ambitious ''High Ball Shooter'' were not in a position to balance the other average-to-poor songs which evidences the deterioration of DP's quality at that time

The Coverdale era of Deep Purple is sickeningly underrated. Stormbringer funks AND fucks.

It's truly fascinating to see how DP's sound evolved over the diffent line-ups. While Burn was still a very MKII sounding record, less than a year later Hughes and Coverdale's Bluesy and soul oriennted styles respectively are much more present, even with a very clear funk feel. In addition to this shift, the quality of the music too takes a huge hit too, consistinng mostly of similar and repetitive tracks. Only true standout is Soldier of Fortune.

STORMBRINGER, the second and final studio release by Deep Purple Mk. 3, it does at first seem to be a less inspired effort than its more solid predecessor BURN. However, it's the vocal performances by David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes that really made me take notice of this album. It also seems that there is bit more of a playful, competitive tension here than on BURN. Although David and Glenn have different tones and approaches to singing, their voices blend in a wonderfully complementary way. Their performance alone make this record a joy for me.rI believe some of the reason that some Purple fans might not like STORMBRINGER as much is because of the shift from a heavier rock sound to a more playful and funky style at times. Rather than continuing to nitpick the minor shortcomings of this record, I've grown to appreciate this album more as time passes. We should be thankful to have this final offering from a very special Deep Purple lineup that existed for such a short time. Just shy of excellence, but definitely worthwhile.
