This one’s all about “Child in Time.” If you dig that song then the odds are good you’ll remember it and remember this album. If not, then the whole thing probably falls into the category of a collection of overlong rock tunes that never quite compete with Led Zeppelin. I like “Child in Time” and still think the other songs are mostly too long and lacking in melody and lyrics that really stick in the brain. “Into the Fire” stood out on this listen and I really like a lot of the guitar playing throughout. But yeah - Deep Purple continues to be one of those bands that means more to other musicians I like than they mean to me.
