Cool stuff!
Re: The Deep Purple album - One of the saddest things about the release of their third album was that their first US company was slowly going out of business even with a couple of Top 40 hits by Purple ("Hush" being the king) and a couple of albums by co-owner Bill Cosby. After two Top 100 albums in the US, their third would only inch up to 162, possibly due to the lack of funds for promoting it. Although you could say that it was at least better than what did in the UK (All of their first three missed), but you could feel the disappointment. Thankfully, most of that album went on Purple Passages.
