A great british 70's rock band! Its guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, Keyboardist Jon Lord, and drummer Ian Paice are all excellent musicians.
This band was known to have witnesses a lot of changes in its line-up.

One of the greatest bands of all time, who were at their peak in the 1960's to the early 1970's. They were characterized by their heavy; riff-based music style. Their biggest hit was Smoke on the Water, but they also had hits with other songs, such as Black Night, Burn, Knocking at Your Backdoor, and Space Truckin'. Had great musicians, like Richie Blackmore, John Lord, and Roger Glover.

One of, if not THE greatest of all metal/hard rock bands. Always innovative and did nothing like the other bands of their time did.
Machine Head is the example of what all albums should aspire to be, although none will match.
Also, Jon Lord is the coolest dude ever. Made keyboards kick fucking ass.

A band formed in the Late 60s-early 70s that is one of the greatest rock bands of all time. They have one of the greatest guitarists of all time, Ritchie Blackmore, who falls second on my list behind Jimmy Page. Deep Purple's greatest songs(in my opinion) are Burn, Space Truckin', Black Knight, Demon's Eye, Child In Time, and Stormbringer. Everyone should check this band out.

A great british classic rock band from the 1970's. Their music consists of heavier, more raw songs that are the basis of heavy metal, together with intricate, longer and more progressive songs. For example: The song April, about nine minutes of it is a Baroque melody played on keyboard and guitar.
Greatest songs: April, Child in Time, Black Night, Smoke on the Water, Lazy.
