Slaves and Masters is the thirteenth studio album by Deep Purple, and was released in 1990. Deep Purple went through more than their share of personnel changes over the years. In 1990, their lineup consisted of guitarist Ritchie Blackmore (who had returned to the Purple fold in 1984 after leaving the band to form Rainbow following the release of Stormbringer in November 1974), singer Joe Lynn Turner(who was once the lead singer of Rainbow), keyboardist/organist Jon Lord, drummer Ian Paice, and bassist Roger Glover.

“King Of Dreams”, “The Cut Runs Deep”, and “Fire In The Basement” are all classic Deep Purple tracks. Blackmore’s guitar solos and Lord’s keyboard runs reminds us of the ‘old’ Deep Purple. The album sounds like a cross between Rainbow and a Deep Purple album.

Slaves and Masters is available on audiophile black vinyl.
