Reviews

    georgebein
    The Battle Rages On is a highly underrated album that has some great metal cuts like “Anya” and “Twist In The Tail”, which are both 2 of the all time best Deep Purple tracks!! Just these 2 songs alone are 1000 times better than any song Steve Morse appeared on! Ritchie Blackmore Deep Purple was epic rock and metal, wheres anything after Blackmore left is SUPER BORING and basically, “SUCKS”
