Purple hasn't sound like a band in years, and the personal problems between Gillan and Blackmore didn't help the band sound. By adding Steve Morse, and removing Blackmore, Deep Purple woke up and picked up what they left a lot of years ago. Of course, this album is no Machine Head or In Rock, but is certainly better than most of the albums they made in the 80's and 90's. Steve Morse still have his own sound, and is fits perfectly in the Purple sound. The production of Roger Glover is still perfect, the sound of the whole album is real high quality. Too bad that the Purple is not getting any radio airplay. Any fule kno that and Don't make me happy are among the highlights of the album. Don't think of Deep Purple as a classic band, who's trying to survive, they're still alive and kicking. The age is not an obstacle for them, their live performances are still full of energy and fun.
