Description: DEEP PURPLE – MACHINE HEAD LP 33 RPM VINYL GATEFOLD Led Zeppelin's fourth album, Black Sabbath's Paranoid, and Deep Purple's Machine Headhave stood the test of time as the Holy Trinity of English hard rock and heavy metal, servingas the fundamental blueprints followed by virtually every heavy rock & roll band since theearly '70s. Machine Head contains the "mother of all guitar riffs" -- and one of the first learnedby every beginning guitarist -- in "Smoke on the Water." Inspired by real-life events in Montreux,Switzerland, where Deep Purple were recording the album when the Montreux Casino wasburned to the ground during a Frank Zappa concert, neither the song, nor its timeless riff, shouldneed any further description. However, Machine Head was anything but a one-trick pony, intro-ducing the bona fide classic opener "Highway Star," which epitomized all of Deep Purple'sintensity and versatility while featuring perhaps the greatest soloing duel ever between guitaristRitchie Blackmore and organist Jon Lord. Also in top form was singer Ian Gillan, who croonedand exploded with amazing power and range throughout to establish himself once and for all asone of the finest voices of his generation, bar none. Finally, the spectacular "Space Truckin'"drove Machine Head home with yet another tremendous Blackmore riff, providing a fittingconclusion to one of the essential hard rock albums of all time.
