    Deep Purple-Song style

    Hi, I've been listening to Deep Purple recently, especially because it's so highly spoken of by so many people. However, having heard (and being very fond of) bands like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath etc, I can't seem to find any 'structure' of the songs by Deep Purple. For example 'Stairway...

    Thanks for your reply! I've heard 'Going To California' and I feel its a very touching song and I do appreciate it. You see, I've come to believe that respect/ admiration for a rock band comes two-fold: 1. admiration of what comes straight at you (the music, their stage performance and...

    Appreciating classic rock bands.
