On
February 5th, Friday Music are releasing the Deluxe Edition of Deep Purple's "Slaves And Masters", the only album featuring former
Rainbow singer Joe Lynn Turner. Now remastered, the album
features two rare bonus tracks; "Slow Down Sister" (B side of "Love
Conquers All" 12” and 45) and the hard to find 45 edit of "Love
Conquers All", as well as including rare RCA label memorabilia.
A
press release reads:
"Featuring the Mark V line up of Ritchie
Blackmore, Ian Paice, the late Jon Lord, Roger Glover and new
addition hard rocker Joe Lynn Turner, Slaves And Masters was a nice
way to kick in a new decade with this one time configuration. Most
notably hard rocking tracks like 'Fire In The Basement', 'King Of
Dreams' and the international hit power ballad 'Love Conquers All'
helped make this a much played album at rock radio from day one of
its release. Even through all their well-documented changes over the
years, Deep Purple as reigning kings of hard rock and heavy metal
shined through on this album. It’s easy to hear why... the
familiarity of the band was still there with its guitar shredding
maestro Ritchie Blackmore, the powerful drum sound of Ian Paice, Jon
Lord’s iconic keyboard work, Roger Glover’s slammin’ bass, and
Joe Lynn Turner’s hard rockin’ vocals, Slaves And Masters was a
winning affair."
