NewsDeep Purple / Purple vinyl reissues
Coloured vinyl • New transfers • Download codes included
Universal Music are to release coloured vinyl reissues of classic early seventies Deep Purple albums, each mastered from new transfers.
Machine Head (1972), Who Do We Think We Are? (1973), Burn (1974), Stormbringer (1974) and Come Taste the Band (1975) are the studio albums in question, but the memorable live packages – Made in Japan (1972), Made in Europe (1976 – we’re still waiting for the expanded reissue!) and Last Concert in Japan (1977) – are also included.
At least these offer more than just a heavyweight 180g coloured vinyl pressing – all the albums have been cut from new digital transfers of the original master tapes at Abbey Road Studios and they come with download codes (albeit they’ll more than likely be MP3s).
Artwork has been “faithfully replicated” to match the original pressings “in conjunction with the band”. These are touted as ‘limited editions’ but as no numbers have been given, it’s all but meaningless at this point.
All eight vinyl reissues will be released on 7 September 2018.
