SHE MAKES YOU
BURN WITH
THE WAVE OF HER HAND
Burn
is the eighth
studio album
by English
rock band
released on
February,15th 1974,
by Purple Records
internationally,
and
Warner Bros.
Records in
North America.
The album
first features
then-unknown
lead singer
The group's
Mark III line-up
for their
recording debut
included
Coverdale,
(joining from Trapeze)
on bass
and
vocals,
Ritchie Blackmore
on guitar,
Jon Lord
on
keyboards,
and
Ian Paice
on drums.
Burn
mostly consists
of hard rock
and blues
in a similar vein
to that of the group's
preceding albums,
particularly
Machine Head,
but there was an
additional element of
funk rock,
which would become
more prominent
in the later albums
of the
Mark III–IV era.
The album has
received
favorable reviews
and accolades
but others gave
mixed reactions
shortly after its release.
Burn
charted in
13 countries,
including reaching
number three
in the UK
and number nine
in the US.
Followed by a
successful tour,
internal tensions
would start
to abrupt
during the recording
of their
follow-up album
would result in
Blackmore's departure
in early 1975
Background
In the early 1970s,
Deep Purple
was the
best-selling group
in the world,
particularly in
North America.
Their 1973 album
Who Do We Think We Are
was commercially successful,
though the
tour supporting
it was cut short.
Tensions between
then-lead singer
Ian Gillan
and
guitarist
Ritchie Blackmore
escalated,
resulting in
Gillan
leaving the group
on
June,29th 1973
in Osaka, Japan,
after their tour
had concluded.
Gillan described the
Who Do We Think We Are
recording sessions
as elusive,
prompting by leaving
the band.
At the time,
they were able to
dissuade him
from quitting.
However,
in early December 1972,
he wrote management
a letter declaring
that he wanted to
leave on
June,30th 1973;
the decision was made
"not impulsive[ly] but
[after] at least
six months of thought".
Gillan also predicted
in his letter that
the group would
eventually disband
after his departure.
Bassist
Roger Glover
had also planned
to leave
the band due to
the band's refusal
to consider his
ideas for songs.
Blackmore insisted that
Glover go at the
same time
Gillan departed
