Slaves and Masters is the thirteenth studio album by Deep Purple, it was released in 1990. This is the only album to feature singer Joe Lynn Turner, who had replaced Ian Gillan the previous year (and was once the lead singer of Ritchie Blackmore's post-Purple band Rainbow). However, Turner was still a member of the group when they began recording The Battle Rages On. Although the album didn't attract big enough media attention and was practically lost in the USA, the following 1991 European tour was a very big success musically and financially. The Mk V lineup has been occasionally praised for impressive concerts with varied setlists. In 2006 a remastered edition of the album was released in Japan as a vinyl replica CD. |
