Funky Deep Purple. ("This is the way we do Deep Purple".) Some tracks have been re-arranged, Child in Time in particular. Kotzen's solo is much different from Blackmore's but very very good. Burn sounds like it has never sound before, or after - brilliant. Other tracks sound fairly faithful to the originals. There's some good singing on this album.
