I honestly don't own any Deep Purple. I've heard the Machine Head is essential. Is In Rock essential as well?
I think Sabbath Bloody Sabbath an absolute classic and the second best album in their discography.

Master of Reality> Sabbath Bloody Sabbath> Paranoid> Black Sabbath> Black Sabbath Vol.4> Sabotage>>>>>>>>>Technical Ecstasy> Never Say Die

There are three essential Deep Purple albums and one essential live album. "In Rock" "Fireball" "Machine Head" and "Made in Japan". I`d say Machine Head was one of the very best hard rock albums ever recorded!

There is also a Deep Purple thread on this forum, but sadly it seldom gets used (I was usually the only person in there).

So is "In Rock" heavier than say "Megalomania" from Sabotage? What's the heaviest song Deep Purple have? What are your rankings for Deep Purple albums?

Remember "In Rock" came out 5 years earlier than "Sabotage" so its not a fair comparison, better comparison would be to say that "In Rock" was heavier than the "Black Sabbath" debut album which came out the same year.

Deep Purple is really about the essential Mk.2 line-up and these are the albums.

Machine Head> In Rock> Fireball>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Who Do You Think We Are plus of course the "Made in Japan" live album and imo one of the best live albums ever recorded.

I think Technical Ecstacy and Never Say Die! get unfairly bashed. While they aren't as classic as the first six albums, they are still solid hard-rock releases where Sabbath experiments. I think the drugs were getting to them though.

That is really difficult to answer. I don't have one seriously. Master Of Reality probably. Into The Void and After Forever are immense but I like most of Sabotage too.

Master of Reality and Sabotage are probably my current favorites as well. The riffs on those two are just immense.

Faeries Wear Boots and A National Acrobat are huge faves too. Even Juniors Eyes from Never Say Die is immense too.

I do like Falling Off The Edge Of The World and Zero The Hero from the non Ozzy era too.

Man, everytime I watch "The Last Supper" i wanna kill whoever made that movie. Such great performances, ruined by the fact they have to place the dialouge in the middle of a song and not before or after... i hate that. That would of been a flawless video had they structured it better.

Also it is funny, everytime they should Geezer from behind or from the side, he looks like Kurt Cobain to me.


oh, another video for that... this still makes me laugh everytime... it is such a scary sounding song... but with the rainbows and ozzy's attire it is just so funny to me:


I am sure this is not the first time Ozzy has ever given the clap.
