Deep Purple History, Hits, & Highlights on Double DVD

05/29/2009
.
(Kayos) Deep Purple are easily one of the most influential and dynamic British rock bands of the 20th Century. On June 2, eager fans will have the opportunity to experience highlights from the early days of this legendary band, when Eagle Rock Entertainment releases History, Hits, & Highlights, a special 2DVD set that hits stores June 2.

A vivid compilation of rare and unreleased material, live performances, archival interviews and studio/television footage, History, Hits & Highlights chronicles the years 1968-1976 when the band survived four line-up changes and produced such classic albums as In Rock, Fireball, Burn, and Machine Head. It was at this time that essential tracks like "Hush," "Speed King," "Black Night," and, of course, "Smoke On The Water," were produced. These solid rock staples, plus many more, are prominently displayed on this set. As a bonus, a photo gallery is included on the second disc.

Hot on the heels of front man Ian Gillan's new CD One Eye To Morocco (March 31, Eagle Rock), this 2DVD set is a revealing look at the band. It also follows a grand tradition of great Deep Purple releases from Eagle Rock, such as Around The World Live 5DVD set (June 2008), and They All Came Down To Montreux DVD (June 2007).

Eagle Rock Entertainment is an international media production and distribution company operating across audiovisual entertainment programming.

Eagle Rock Entertainment has offices based in London, New York, Germany & France.
