Deep Purple are a British band formed in in 1968.  They are considered to be among the pioneers of and modern ,  although their musical approach changed over the years. Originally formed as band, the band's sound shifted to hard rock in 1970. Deep Purple, together with and , have been referred to as the "unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal in the early to mid-Seventies".  They were listed in the 1975 as "" for a 1972 concert at London's ,  and have sold over 100 million albums worldwide,  including 17.5 million certified units in the US.

The band has gone through many line-up changes and an eight-year hiatus (1976–1984). The 1968–1976 line-ups are commonly labelled Mark I, II, III and IV.  Their second and most commercially successful line-up featured (vocals), (organ), (bass), (drums), and (guitar).

RECORD GRADING:

All records strictly graded and condition is guaranteed.

NEW or MINT Unplayed OR Sealed  [OLD STORE STOCK]

M- (Mint Minus) Disc appears to be virtually flawless, and should play as such...

EXCELLENT  (EX) May have fine paper scuff other than look flawless 

VG++ Denotes tiny VISUAL flaw or paper scuff(s) that is cosmetic, or minor markings that cannot be heard

VG+ Disc has slight to average wear, a few more scuffs / visual abrasions, possibly a few light scratches. Obviously used, but certainly not abused. A nice record. Background noise should be minimal, if at all present.

VG+ or G "Good" Disc has lots of wear, and serious visual abrasions. It should play through without skipping (unless otherwise noted). Condition is generally rough, but is good enough to serve as a "filler" copy until something better comes along. Only the rarest of records will be listed in this condition.

Whenever a record plays better than the visual grade, it is noted via both grades (Looks VG, plays VG++) If two grades are noted (VG/VG-) that means the "A" side grades VG, while the "B" side grades VG-

All other defects, such as cut-out holes (CO), stickers and/or writing on the label (SOL / WOL) and warping (wrp) are noted as listed here.

"NAP" denotes that a described defect (warp, press bump, etc.) does 'not affect play'.
