Mmmhh thats debatable. Although their first albums were def hard rock. Into the 80's their music was more and more heavy. Listen to "stormbringer" , "perfect strangers" , "under the gun" compare it to other bands of the time that were considered metal. Judas priest " you got another thing coming" i.e. and you'll realize what I mean. Def has metal repertoire. They just didi'nt stick to that style so to speak.

[@TheOfficialMikeRoot]

I grew up listening to Deep Purple. This song and Perfect Strangers are two of my favorite songs. Jon Lord was a master on the keyboard. My Dad says one of the best concerts he ever seen was at The Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. It was in 1985 during the Perfect Strangers Tour. The entire stage was smoked out and the lazer light show was amazing. Richie Blackmore is seen walking in and kicks a soccer ball out into the crowd. Everyone went wild. They opened with Highway Star. I wish I would have grown up back in those days. Everyone went to concerts and they were dirt cheap. They'd hitchhike sometime from Northern Michigan all the way to Detroit or Pontiac. They didn't give a shit back in those days. They'd do anything to make it to a concert!!

[@jarheadlife]

I was a sophomore in HS in 85. My mom went to this same concert….she wouldn’t let me and my twin sister go lol. She did get us a few concert tees tho and that was cool. Great album for sure!!

[@bryanackeret5066]

I graduated from high school in 85 great times for music.

[@sunmanav8]

Yep, drove from Flint, MI to the 1982 Toledo Speedway Jam just after graduating from high school. Great music and great times.

[@perlofgren5089]

I saw this tour in Worcester, MA. Think it was late 84. I was only 15 and I had a ticket for my best friend Scott, but at the last minute he said he couldn't go, so I went by myself. My dad drove me to the arena and picked me up after. I went to probably 50 or 60 concerts in high school and my parents never gave me a hard time about it, although I'm sure they worried once I started driving myself to the shows. But nothing bad ever happened and I always had a great time while losing my hearing lol. I love you Mom and Dad and you too Scott, where ever you are!

One of the MOST UNDERRATED bands in rock history. Such an amazing sound.

[@Bernie0481USMC]

@Vince Feeney not at all. In fact, thousands believe the same. You must be young. Deep Purple was never a popular radio band nor talked about big band like Maiden, Black Sabbath etc. You do know what underrated means, yes?

[@Bernie0481USMC]

@Vince Feeney what insult. I'm 51 and DP is and has always been underrated. You are literally the 1st person to argue this. They received little airplay and still do on classic radio. Always their Top hits. No Hall of Fame. No major stuff at all. DP is an album and live band only. And a band that most folks dont even mention. In over 30 years you're the first to say different. That's your belief.
