Deep Purple - The Book of Taliesyn

1969
Recorded just three months after their debut, which had a bunch of covers, this has more covers. A neil Diamond song, Kentucky Woman, which seems to be an attempt to follow up on their hit single Hush. Like their debut this is mostly dated drawn out swirly psychedelic 60's sounding cliches. Only when Jon Lord takes off on the organ to you get a taste of the more forward thinking progressive band that Deep Purple would become. This isn't bad it isn't great either.
