Deep Purple - Deep Purple In Rock (Vinyl LP | DE Original | 1970)

Deep Purple – Deep Purple In Rock was released in 1970 and is the first studio album by the classic Mark II line-up – the record with which Deep Purple redefined hard rock. Ritchie Blackmore's fierce guitar, Jon Lord's Hammond organ and Ian Gillan's screams drive classics like “Speed King”, “Child In Time” and “Hard Lovin' Man”.
