I listened to the 2012 remastered version of this album. "When A Blind Man Cries" should've been on the original setlist, it's my second favorite song from the album.

Grande clássico do hard rock.

It's in my top 3-4 DP albums for sure but the production is rather sterile and a few songs are not the greatest in my opinion. Highway star is legendary and is one of the most important songs in the history and evolution of heavy metal. It's a game changer. Lazy is also amazing. It's a really good album but not as great as IN ROCK or BURN, imho. If youre looking to check out some of DP's material, it's a good place to start.

Many great tunes here
Although that, the definitive versions of all of those songs are in the "Made in Japan" album (prefer those because of the more energetic sound and the powerful Gillan screams), a fact that somehow makes this album not that special imo

Really solid hard rock/metal album. Influential and iconic. Cements Deep Purple as one of the forerunners of early heavy metal music, alongside Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.

It's a fucking disgrace this album isn't in the top 100 LET ALONE 237TH!! This is Deep Purple at their best and an absolute essentiallll album for any rock fan. Near flawless.

Album equilibrato nei suoni ( a parte qualche svisata di tastiere di troppo ), con grandi canzoni ( si vabbé, "Smoke on the water", ma soprattutto "Highway star" e "Pictures of home" ), un grandissimo Blackmore alla chitarra e la tendenza a "stamarrare" tenuta a freno.

A really solid rock album with a great energy from begin to end. The biggest hit, Smoke on The Water, is a good song but definitely not the best one on this album. Don't forget about the beautiful ballad at the end!

I bought this album many years ago. It was recommend by a friend of mine who love this album. I have no regrets a really good solid rock album with no weak tracks on it.

A quintesential rock album!
