Purple People Vol. 1 = 4 CD Box Set = (CD)
Deep Purple were originally signed in 1968 to Parlophone Records in the UK, before switching to EMI's progressive imprint, Harvest, the following year. In 1971, the band's management set up Purple Records, to release Deep Purple's records from "Machine Head" onwards, but also the various side projects the band members were developing, and artists that they were discovering and respected. The label would eventually become home to debut solo releases from Jon Lord, Roger Glover & David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes, as well as early releases from Michael Des Barres' Silverhead and Ronnie James Dio's Elf. Following expanded reissues from the resurrected Purple Records by Glenn Hughes, Silverhead, Elf and Hard Stuff, Cherry Red are proud to announce the new four disc set, "Purple People Volume One". Between finding fame performing as Mary Magdalene in Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Jesus Christ Superstar" alongside Ian Gillan's Jesus, but before being snapped up by RSO Records to become a disco superstar with the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack, Yvonne Elliman made one LP for Purple Records. Produced by Rupert Hine, the Hawaiian singer's guests include The Who's Pete Townshend, who lends his guitar to her version of 'I Can't Explain'. The album is also notable for the song 'Happy Ending', a rare, early example of song writing from a pre-"Bat Out of Hell" Jim Steinman. Purple Records was nothing if it wasn't a broad church, and Buddy Bohn's "A Drop In The Ocean" is typical of the label's eclectic nature. In part recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the Illinois born guitarist's third LP was produced by Jerry Lordan, and also features cover artwork form the famed Hipgnosis design team. The royalties from the minor hit 'Vermouth Rondo' allowed Bohn to build his own studio.
