219. Deep Purple / Deepest Purple. 1980. 4.5/5.

When the band had finally fallen on its sword, and the dust had finally settled, this best-of came to remind everyone how great they had been. Or to make a bucketload of cash. Yeah, probably the second one.

You can't argue about the material that is on this album. They are all genuine classics. And as this was released on vinyl originally, there are only so many tracks you can put on. And I don't want to get into an argument as to what should have made this final cut. So I won't.

Rating : For the same reason as I have had before, you can't get full marks if it isn't a PERFECT best-of! 4.5/5.
