Deep Purple, Cozy Powell - 24 Carat Purple / Over the Top - Multiple titles - LP Albums (multiple items) - Japanese pressing, 1st Pressing - 1975

Deep Purple & Cozy Powell – British Hard Rock Royalty presents two powerhouse examples of 1970s British rock excellence, captured in these exceptional Japanese first pressings. This pairing showcases both the legendary Deep Purple at their peak and Cozy Powell's formidable solo work, representing the pinnacle of hard rock drumming and musicianship. The "24 Carat Purple" Japanese pressing compiles Deep Purple's most explosive moments with stunning clarity. From the iconic riff of "Smoke on the Water" to the epic "Child in Time," every classic track emerges with breathtaking power. The Mark II lineup's legendary chemistry—Ian Gillan's soaring vocals, Ritchie Blackmore's virtuoso guitar, and Jon Lord's thunderous keyboards—benefits from the superior Japanese audio engineering, making these hard rock anthems sound fresher and more dynamic than ever. Cozy Powell's "Over the Top" showcases the legendary drummer's solo prowess, featuring his trademark hard-hitting style and collaborations with guitar greats like Jeff Beck and Gary Moore. These copies are remarkable for their outstanding condition. The Deep Purple compilation is in absolute mint state—a true time capsule—with pristine OBI and insert. The Cozy Powell album maintains excellent to near-mint quality, showcasing Powell's powerful drumming with clarity and punch. Both albums represent the highest standard of 1970s hard rock, preserved in collectible Japanese editions that capture the raw energy and technical brilliance of British rock's golden era. A perfect pair for hard rock connoisseurs, showcasing two different facets of British rock excellence. DETAILED TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION Artist / Title: 1. Deep Purple - 24 Carat Purple | 2.
