Discography: Deep Purple

The band Deep Purple was one of the most talented of its time.  Though they didn't stay together long, they spawned other groups such as Rainbow and Whitesnake.  Of course, their best albums are in the late 60's and early 70's, and the current lineup only contains one original member, and has for quite some time.
