Deep Purple "Extended Versions"
I've been informed that another album reviewed on my site has been reissued under the Extended Versions title, as part of BMG's Encore Collection. The Deep Purple Extended Versions CD is a truncated single-CD version of the double-disc import On The Wings Of A Russian Foxbat. (To confuse matters further, another version of the same live album was once available in the U.S. as King Biscuit Flower Hour: Deep Purple In Concert). This album consists of concert performances by the 1975 lineup of Deep Purple: David Coverdale, Tommy Bolin, Glenn Hughes, Ian Paice, and Jon Lord. In any form and by any name, this album is only recommended for fans of the 1975 Purple album Come Taste The Band, and even that camp seems divided between those who love the live album and those who hate it.
