Deep Purple In Rock is, as its iconic cover suggests, a landmark in
rock music. From its opening moments of mayhem to its final crash
into incoherent noise, it is a fuzzbox fuelled masterpiece with not
a single wasted moment. Its release was also a watershed moment for
the band, a defiant and irrevocable statement that they were going
in a different direction from that followed on their first three
albums. It would be wrong, however, to suggest that the album came
from nowhere. Not only was it one side in a musical debate that had
been raging within the band, but its antecedents can be traced
through both Deep Purple's earlier releases and those of some of
the source bands from which the principal players were drawn.
Sculpting In Rock takes up that challenge, exploring the roots of
the album, placing it into its proper context to consider how it
was produced as well as why it was produced. Part history, part
essay, part memoir, the book is essential reading for any fan of
Deep Purple, In Rock or the exciting, uncompromising, genre of
which it is arguably the masterpiece.
