About Listen Learn Read On
This set tells the band's story from their first American hit in 1968 through to their final live shows in 1976. It does so through a remarkable collection of over seventy tracks (around a quarter of which are unreleased) across six packed CDs, all subject to extensive work at EMI's Abbey Road Studio to ensure the highest sound quality. If You want an in-depth introduction to the group, all their classic numbers are here, many newly remastered, while long term fans will turn to the twenty or so previously unissued live performances, radio sessions and alternate takes. In addition the box also houses a long format book written by Deep Purple archivist Simon Robinson, which tells the band's story in detail via 120 pages of text, with pictures, cuttings, memorabilia, musician profiles and discographies. The set is further enhanced by a selection of early tracks by the members of the band prior to joining Deep Purple, giving an insight into their pre-Purple careers. Gatefold longbox, book format. EMI Records. 2002.
