In 1973, Deep Purple, one of the biggest rock bands at the time, introduced a new vocalist, the young and unknown singer from the north of England, David Coverdale. David contributed to three studio albums with Deep Purple - Burn, Stormbringer, and Come Taste The Band - all considered classics. The fiftieth anniversary of this significant moment is commemorated with the Special Gold Edition of The Purple Album. This album carefully selects the finest tracks from Deep Purple's Mark 3 and Mark 4 line-ups, all freshly remixed and remastered for 2023. Whitesnake's twelfth studio album showcases Reb Beach on guitar, Michael Devin on bass, Joel Hoekstra on his debut Whitesnake album, and drummer Tommy Aldridge returning to a Whitesnake studio album for the first time since 1989's Slip Of The Tongue.
