It's a masterpiece of an album - for me Drifter is the standout track - it all blends so beautifully - the tension builds towards the end of the song and then it's released so potently.
Deep Purple - Come Taste the Band: My favorite album from them. With very guitar oriented songs, future groups will cover. This album also marked the end of blues rock heavy metal. . making way for strict metal. I've listened to this more than Machine Head. .
I've alway considered this one of the greatest rock albums of all time. It hasn't dated at all in 37 years.
Its too bad that Tommy couldnt get his shit together, because, given what he had done by 25, he could've been among the best ever. Just what he did on "Spectrum" and his solo albums, the guy was amazing. I know that Blackmore himself was a fan of Tommy's playing, and thats saying something, because Ritchie doesnt have a lot of respect for too many guitar players!
If only this line up could have made more albums. It's ironic that when bands are in a distressed state and often before falling apart, they often do some of their their best work; Heartbreaker by Free is another example.
If Bolin was alive they would have, but the kid killed himself and put an end to DP.
@@CZOV Yes I know this. I don't think it was in Tommy's plans to be dead, but he was out of control. DP resurrected soon enough, but the Mk2 lineup, and I saw them in Sydney.
This is a very great album,a true lost treasure.
it was a head of its time, and as Jon said it is an amazing album under any circumstances and all ways will be
As i've got older i've come to appreciate the hughes/bolin content of DP. Even though it is not the classic Mk2 lineup i find the music more listenable nowadays. There is only so many times you can hear smoke on the water.
I know and follow rock and nwbhm music since 1984. I never liked DP, but I cannot say I knew all their songs.
In 2020 i am big fan of DP MK4. What is happening to me?
Yes sir it is not classic mk2 lineup, it is classic mk4 lineup!

Didn't like the album when it was released but gradually grew on me as I get older. It is now my all time top 3 Deep Purple albums along with Burn and In Rock.
I'm sorry to hear Glenn said that "This Time Around" was his crying for help, and that he intuited that his life was going to hell soon. He was young and confused, he became very famous and rich in short time, and maybe he can't handle this. This is sad. Fortunately he is doing well now.
Criminally underrated record
Not a Deep Purple album? It's the BEST Deep Purple album BY FAR.
There are MANY great Deep Purple albums from my experience (which started back in 1972).
Fully agree, the best👍
😆 🤣 😂
Glenn Hughes is a class act and brought a great dynamic to DP
As did Tommy Bolin (R.I.P.)
Such an unusual album of greatness. So much offerings musically. Still play those all the time. Had to have Tommy for that playing.
For Christmas of '75 I got this one, Sabatoge, and Blackmore's Rainbow. Of course, I had to hear Ritchie's new gig first, then I played Sabbath, and played the Purple album last, not expecting too much. I was blown away from the opening of Coming Home all the way to the final note of You Keep on Moving. It turned Tommy into one my favorite guitarists. 61 days later I got to see the CTTB tour, and in light of Tommy's fate, was very grateful that I did. Dec 4th, 1976 was a sad day.
I “lived” this record back when it came out. Me and all my compadres...all my musical compatriots, that is, absolutely loved it. And we were die hard Blackmore fans. But at about the time it was released I got heavily into Tommy Bolin. He just contributed so much to every band he was in. I had to have everything he wrote and played on. Honestly, I probably haven’t heard this record since the 70’s...it’s great to now hear Glenn’s behind the scenes recounting; as another poster wrote here, he is indeed a class act. God Bless him and I’m so glad he overcame his demons...I wish Tommy had as well. I think it’s time to revisit CTTB. 😌
Das beste Album for ever! Ich habe, höre liebe es seit 43 Jahren!
That comment about the Kevin Shirley remixes at the end is so true, they're on the Deluxe Edition and have to be heard to be believed - he made them sound more heavy and rocking.
Deep Purple Mk IV and Come Taste The Band have aged like a fine wine 🍷
One of Purples best albums. Not in the style of the classic MKII lineup,but a superb blend of Funk Blues and Rock. Tommy Bolin was an amazing guitarist way ahead of his time. It's a sad shame he died so young when he was just beginning to hit his stride and become quite possibly the greatest guitarist of all time. I was fortunate enough to see this lineup in February of 76 as well as Tommy's last show December 3 at the Miami Jai Lai Fronton. It was the last time I saw DP Live. This is a really good album!
I agree that Tommy had great potential. His work on Spectrum and Teaser were excellent. However, I saw the CTTB tour in 76. To be honest, it was a terrible show. I saw Purple in 74 (Burn). It was a good show. The stand out was Ritchie. I have tried so hard to like Hughes. I simply can't. I do not care for his bass playing, it is very pedestrian. I agree with Ritchie about funk. I don't like it. I also could not stand Hughes vocals, all that whooping and wailing, just so damn irritating.
I contrast with seeing Purple in 72 (MH) and 73 (WDWTWA). The MH show was PHENOMENAL!!! All 5 on fire - tight, superb musicianship. Even the 73 show (I saw one of the last MK2 shows back then) was damn good. Here was a band literally breaking apart and they put on an excellent show.
CTTB is a decent album. I do not consider it to be Purple's best. A lot of it sounds like Zep... meh... The stand out tracks are This time Around, Owed to G, You Keep On Moving.
I saw them Feb 24 in El Paso. If I remember correctly, that was the show before Long Beach (I may be wrong), which was recorded. I know that the El Paso show was better than what was on the Long Beach recording.
One of the best album EVER.
I consider my love of Deep Purple to be the same as the football clubs we have each supported over a vast amount of years. No doubt there have been many great players across different era's. Some were legends and others were good assets nonetheless - but we still supported them and always will.
No matter what combo represents DP, they will always be ROCK LEGENDS in my opinion!!!!!!!
Tommy brought his own unique vibe to Purple, and regardless of whether people regard Come Taste The Band as a Purple album, it's one of the best albums of the '70's.
Tommy was brilliant at playing the guitar, but he wasn't brilliant at looking after himself. He took hard drugs and drank far too much.
You can see in this interview that he looked unhealthy: his face looked bloated and he was glassy eyed from alcoholism.
Google: Tommy Bolin/Jim Fox interviewed by Bob Harris on Whistle Test.
It's a TV interview from 1973 when he'd just joined The James Gang and he looked healthy and happy, talking about his career.
His hat looked cool too.
Tommy set this record from being a typical deep purple record. The album is genius. If you wanted Blackmore you should have followed rainbow which is great. Come taste the band is the fucking shit! So good!
Kevin Shirley did a wonderful job with the remixes!!! Breathed new life into the songs and Paicey's drumming - OMG!!!
Amazing album. I am Purple fan since In Rock, I got CTTB on vinyl when it came out, loved it as very fresh and love it to this day.
GREAT ALBUM INDEED!
Come Taste The Band. Deep Purple LP #1
First record i ever bought back in those days. Loved it then and today still. It was great progession for the band and way ahead of its time.
what other great music could have come .we can only ponder. But for the excesses of the 70s. Great work Tommy.
Really great, under the radar album...Never got its due because there were too many MK2 fans sitting there with their arms folded and ears closed...It's an album they should all be proud of...
wish they made more
me too !
I love this formation! It would have been very nice to enjoy Tommy a few more years.....
Brasil Rio de Janeiro
Álbum magnífico, um dos melhores de todos os tempos.
It always throws me when I see and hear Coverdale from those days, I'm unfortunately too young to have seen him in purple, i was born a year before this album came out, I discovered him from Whitesnakes slip of the tongue album in the late 80's. Still one of my favourites.
do you know the 70's - early 80-s whitesnake
Great Album...Fantastic to hear Jon speak of it in such reverent terms...Wish Ian and David could weigh in..
I was only 13 at that time, i knew nothing about the band, but i bought it. And i was paralysed!!!!!. Sooooo gooooood music, so funky heavy metal music and i thougth, dp goooo on
But after two years break. I cry since then. Greatings from ibach, switzerlands victorinox original swiss army knives are manufactired. I live in the nicest landscape of the world. Please come to my hometown, worldwiiiiiide!!!!!!!!!. Tschüüüüüs.
Uwielbiam tę płytę!
Why does Deep Purple never talk about Who Do We Think We Are?It became the forgotten Purple album after Gillan and Glover split and also very underrated.
marc dewey ... as everything they released it is great musically, but it seems that those 'tunnel vision DP fans' can't swallow anything that differs from In Rock and Machine Head
They do not realize that the greatness of the band was bravery to go into uncharted waters and test them.
WDYTWA is a... It's a bad weak LP
It’s shit, that’s why. I like Smooth Dancer and Rat Bat Blue, but that’s all.
One of the best DP album !
Imagine Gillan (if he had stayed) and Hughes playing together after Glover was canned. People would be blowing out speakers around the world. And windows.
Tommy Bolin seems to be a nice guy, he is a respectable but underated guitarist. He kicks ass, it was a sham about his death. The first time i played Come Taste the Band i thought this isn't a Deep Purple album. The guitar playing is vary different it is great. Deep Purple kicks ass.
Right on Phil de Blois, glad u took a moment 2 reply, the last one before u was FOUR YRS earlier, hey where the hell r the true music fans, dead!
Fantastic Album ,tommy replace blackmoor in a such good way .
Robert Vukic ...Just too bad he couldn't get clean and stay off the drugs.
thank you for psoting this great moment of music history !
I love this album had it on cassette even
Very Very Very Good !!!
It was the First Album I loved from Deep Purple - because it was a bit different !!! I was never a Classic Purple Fan - I prefer the Mark III and Mark IV Deep Purple !!!
The same for me!!!
great EPK, with nice, juicy bits of information and trivia for the DP diehard (such as myself). The funniest part? The fact that, some 35 odd years after it all, Jon Lord still felt the need to "diplomatically" excuse Glenn's absence by the end of the CTTB sessions. Is that gentlemanly, or what? Anyway, great bit of video, thanks for posting!
0:54 how I felt about Come Taste The Band, having adored Mk.II and Mk.III line ups. But this line up MK.IV was my first concert. 3:17 looks like Budokan, Tokyo, (If so) I was there that night, Dec 1975
Best Purple lineup
Yeah! Can't wait for this!
Great remix. Great album
I treated myself to CCTB Re-issue. The remix by Kevin Shirley give a very interesting insight of what was recorded on the multis and what was (not) used for the original mix.
It also gives me the opportunitly to value Martin Birch's production work a little more: great job!
Great Post Thank you !
Burn & Stormbringer are dated, whereas Come Taste sounds contemporary.
You'll find that with most, if not all of Tommy's work.
I wish there was a complete concert of this band available to see. Sure there’s lots of video clips of them in concert posted but they don’t seem to match the song being played.
@metacosmos Either way, Hughes was stunning at that time as a rock star, as a singer and as a bass player.
Deep Purple's greatest studioalbum by any formation then and now!
😆 🤣 😂
Brilliant!
My favorite Purple
@JWirtel yes, I agree..
I am sure you've made the right assertion. He meant that the problems with the drugs that compromised his performance on-stage at some concert (well quite many unfortunately)
They were on some ways held back by blackmore this version of DP was really quite good
Guitarists with egos. .like Blackmore or Fripp are so hung up on themselves. .they failed to see the next generations of players. .that are way better than them.
12:05...
Damn...didnt survive the session-
But yet in that dark night of the soul-a masterpiece.
Its funny because you hear First Day Jam and it makes you nostalgic what Mach 2 could do even with Ritchie just on bass, yet you got Keyboard and bass, vocals...goin' somewhere different-and then everybody speaks their piece- so satisfying. I ll put it this way. It could have easily been on Deepest Purple-The Best Of Deep Purple. The album was great-it was the tour performances which were lacking-badly. An overdose followed. Sad, inevitable, history.
When I first got CTTB I didnt think much of it but I always liked You keep on moving which I still think to this day is a great son and really should have been on Burn.
A very good album. I put this in the top 5 album for Purple. It’s that good
Best Deep Purple album I reckon. Really really still relevant and doesn't sound dated like the Mk 2 and 3 stuff.
It's a shame they were saddled with the Purple name. If it had been called Whitesnake by that point, it would've been considered legendary. It's a great album, as are the rehearsal cd's from a couple decades ago. I'm proud to have an original vinyl.
I remember buying this album, not liking the cover or title. Definitely not happy that Ritchie was gone. I tried to like it and listened to it a few times all the way through but I never took to it!
Where is all of this live mkIV video? I want to see it!
superalbum
I have to disagree with one statement, which is Jon's take that "Tommy was a compromised musician"...In fact, I think Tommy was the one who most put his ass into this album....He may have meant that Tommy was off durning the tour, which may be correct...But during the sessions, he was magical...
When Jon says compromised I think he's referring to Tommy's serious drug use which did eventually become a problem in the band and subsequently ended his life far too prematurely.
Tommy Bolin r.i.p 🎵🎼🎶🎵🎼🎶🎸🙏👊
Jon Douglas lord r.i.p 🎵🎼🎶🎼🎶🎹🙏👊
glenn = genius
I bought this lp. .at first released. .saw the cover. .that's Glenn, Ian, David, Jon, and hey that's not Ritchie. .then I heard that first note of track 1.
@Ko1962315 totally agree
Is a DVD gonna be released? There are some live videos from that period included in this video which I have never seen. Or maybe they're already released??
Tommy Bolan - MOXY -MOON RIDER !!
🤟
I Interest With Love Child & Keep On Moving.
CTTB finally gets the credits it deserves.
Grandios LP, better than Who do you think we are and Stormbringer, it's like Burn, but without a huge blistering hit like Burn was
Tommy''s play, and the whole band's for that matter, was inconsistent...I went to one of the great shows in Miami, Feb of 76 and they were on fire...Tommy was a genius in the studio, so I don't think that he was compromised at all in the studio...In many ways, Tommy put more energy and passion into Come Taste the Band than any of the other members...
Brilliant album..
Fireball is Purples best album, CTTB is the second best.
Anyone know when this interview with Jon was done?
@VUPdingCLICK oh come on. sure he is.. he says positive things about coverdale all the time, they are friends in fact to this day.
he just explains, I think it is interesting to hear a lot about this fantastic album.
well coverdale was the frontman and lead singer, indeed. But hughes only sung on two songs lead vocals on this album, (sure only one on stormbringer and 0 on burn) but still 2 aint much ,especially considering he wasnt featured on many other songs (vocals), but those 2. YKOM ofc
Brasil Rio de Janeiro
So glad Hughes didn't play or sing on Coming Home. .
if you heard this album and it was by a different band it would of been instantly classed as one of the best albums of the mid 70's. its not a deep purple album, but i think the only real deep purple albums are any ones with ian gillian and roger glover because thats what you think of as deep purple.
I don't think deep purple had a bad albumsince in rock.
And its got to be said come taste the band beats the shit out of anything deep purple released after
RIP bolin
Mother_Puncher22 Purpendicular and Perfect Strangers were both pretty solid albums
@UliJones rlly? I think david shouldve sung 3 more songs
The liner notes are a little odd, e.g. it brings up the rumour for the uptenth time that Jon Lord plays on the "Teaser" album, though the man himself said that he did not.
It also states that CTTB lacked "a number suitable for improvisation"! Uff, and what about "Gettin' Tighter", which was extented up to 12 minutes on shows?
And finally: why they did not add the live 76 version of "Coming Home", even if it seems not complete, is anyones guess too.
Jan hammer play keyboards on Teaser .
Jon reportedly sneaked in to play on Teaser, as did Glenn, but for tax reasons they couldn't record in America so had to be uncredited.
Glenn sings at the end of Dreamer.
I don't know which track Jon plays on.
uderrated as a deep purple true album ( cus compares kill any good intention ) it can located as at lesat the best peak musicality to the so called mk 3 right? Paice is more spectacular and acurated than never before,bolin brought a smooth and vibrating fresh taste to the band and all the others seem to had found their personal tune to state on...Very bad the band ended,very bad tommy died...But we have this album to celebrate all it could yet be!
Dealer could have been a Whitesnake song. But great Album
I think they did "Comin Home" at a couple of shows...There's a recording off of the soundboard circulating around...If I were to guess whey they didn't do it, I'd suppose that it's a damned difficult song to sing, and even David in his prime would have had trouble reproducing that performance live...
on that period Dave had a similar problem than later in height of whitesnake .. he took all a bit higher than the studio version which were quite high too .. so he was reaching notes ..or trying that he couldnt do all the time .
this record was already whitesnake for david case .
in whitesnake days he found his feet .
but in late 80's / early 90's he went out of his register
Tommy was a very talented guitarist,but he should have checked into rehab and gotten clean,Glenn had his issues with drugs as well,but realized his problem and did something about it.
tommy did an album with alphonse mouzon and another with billy cobham.....he proved he had what it takes....pity deep purple mark 4 fell apart because glenn and tommy were so fucked up....
Each to their own, at this point DP became a pop band.
Very interesting, Coverdale stole "Dealer" to Hughes and Bolin plays bass in "Coming home", Blackmore said "next" to "You keep on moving " in 1973 ... it seems that Coverdale and Hughes were fighting each other to sing each song and to steal it to the other, just as happened in "Stormbringer" album,..
in live performances .
as much talented Glenn is .
with his drug stuff in add.. in 1975 , He took too much place .
so 1975.. more 1976 .
its like who is screaming the most between glenn and David
Hughes contradicts himself. .saying he was open. . not minding being second vocalist. .but he complains of his role. .Tommy got better musically after Deep Purple. .maybe Hughes was a bad influence.
In the benefit of hindsight it was a good move to leave that projected single (added here as bonus track) "Same in LA" in the shelves. I mean, even with proper vocals on it, that tune would not have gone anywhere and it's clearly not CTTB album quality.
To me this was always the best Purple album...generally liked the MK3 & 4 versions of the band better than MK2. Pity MK4 did only this one.
always the same old videos repeated again...this as been yet published on 'history & highlights...' dvd...
