This is Simon Robinson's reworking of EMI's previous <a href="comp17.html">Anthology</a> 1985, which had contained bait-material aimed at collectors. This one contains no such things and is strictly aimed to allure new fans into the wonderful world of Deep Purple, and/or satisfy the needs of the casual fan.
