When "Rapture of the Deep" was first released in 2005, it felt like the start of something new. Twenty years on, it's clear that it was — a crucial chapter in Deep Purple's journey. While not the first album that comes to mind among their classics, this record and the story behind it played a key role in shaping the band we know today. New liner notes by Classic Rock's Geoff Barton reveal the challenges faced during a turbulent era in the music industry, when Deep Purple were without a label or safety net. The chemistry captured during this period defined their 18th studio album. Now, newly mixed under Roger Glover's supervision, analogue mastered at renowned Chameleon Studios in Hamburg, and presented with bold new artwork, "Rapture of the Deep" finally shines with clarity and color.
