Description –

The album was recorded inMontreux, Switzerland, in November 1973, with theRolling Stones Mobile Studio. With the addition ofDavid CoverdaleandGlenn Hughes, Purple’s hard-rock sound became moreboogie-oriented, incorporating elements ofsoulandfunk, which would become much more prominent on the follow-up album,Stormbringer.

Hughes participated in songwriting, but was not given credit due to unexpired contractual obligations. However, the 30th anniversary edition of the album included Hughes in the credits for all the tracks except “Sail Away,” “Mistreated,” “‘A’ 200” and bonus track “Coronarias Redig.”[2]
