Renowned rock author Martin Popoff's exhaustive and detailed
timeline of Deep Purple milestones - often to the day - looks at
the band's influences, cultural milieu, tours, recording sessions,
charts, singles, certification news, break-ups, personal stuff,
trivia, mixed with lots of artist quotes to add to the entries,
turning the book into a quasi-oral history but loaded with factual
matter.But this book is not just about Deep Purple but the whole
family of bands that surrounds it. Weaved in and out of the story
are the dastardly diaries of Rainbow, Whitesnake, Ian Gillan Band,
Gillan, Paice Ashton Lord, all the solo projects, guest slots, even
Captain Beyond, Warhorse, Jerusalem, Jesus Christ Superstar,
Bedlam, Elf, Episode Six, The Outlaws, and Trapeze.The book also
touches on a whole host of other artists including the likes of
Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Nazareth, Moxy,
Silverhead, Hard Stuff, Lord Sutch, Warpig, Vanilla Fudge, Brian
Auger, Judas Priest, James Gang, Angel and Legs Diamond - but
always with contextual explanation that make this book such a
fascinating read and an absolute smorgasbord of facts surrounding
one of the greatest rock bands' of all time.
