Not a bad song in it, but not many great ones. Four stars is still very good.
Not my cup of tea... but where would every kid learning how to play be without these guys?
Along with Black Sabbath's Paranoid, Machine Head started hard rock/heavy metal.
Not one bad song on this album! Definitely their best studio album. Pictures of Home is the best Deep Purple song you've never heard. This album is a hard rock essential if there ever was one.
Plays like a Deep Purple greatest hits record. They have other good material, but none of their other albums approaches this one.
Very good music. Classic :))
Three classic tracks but the rest of the album is full of great tunes. Their most consistent and best effort.
Has the iconic Smoke on the Water and Lazy, one of my favourite with its long blues intro and twist.
Best track: Pictures of home
Great album full of solid songs. Only weak track is Lazy and that still alright
