Some band members thought the 1984 reunion would fizzle out\nafter one album, but it flourished despite internecine strife, illness and the\nloss of two founders. As members approached eighty years of age, they produced\nalbums that went on to be among their most successful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e   This book tells this sometimes-bizarre\npost-reunion story through their music and, to an extent, their touring.\nNeither were always completely successful, as the band seemed to be either\nsearching for synergy in their sound or for a commercial product that did not\nsacrifice artistic integrity. The lyrics are especially valuable because they\nreveal the hardship of the road and insights into their own growing\nfrustrations with a society they believed to be too woke, too violent, too\nridiculous.  In doing this, the band has\nnot just resurfaced but written a new story for a new audience. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e   All these things make this phase of Deep\nPurple an interesting study, not just of a band loved by so many but also of\nmusicians who just wanted to play their music and sometimes found it was not as\nsimple as that.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonicbond Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54224593551704,"sku":"9781789523546","price":21.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781789523546.jpg?v=1778507152","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/deep-purple-from-1984-on-track","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
