This is the first time Deep Purple's surviving BBC Sessions recordings have been rounded up. Cutting their first session even before their dubut single "Hush" was released in the summer of '68, the band were frequent visitors to the BBC studios over the next two years. Several of the versions here have never been issued before, others were never recorded elsewhere. The material ranges from energetic guitar heavy versions of early tracks through to a blistering set from the monumental "In Rock" album.
