Deep Purple 'Purpendicular' Expanded CD Digipack

Deep Purple Purpendicular is an expanded CD digipack edition of the band’s 15th studio album, originally released in 1996. It marked the start of a more stable period following the departure of founder member Ritchie Blackmore during the 1993 tour for The Battle Rages On, with Steve Morse joining on guitar.

All songs are credited to all five members: Jon Lord (keyboards), Ian Paice (drums), Ian Gillan (vocals), Roger Glover (bass guitar) and Steve Morse (guitar). This edition adds the Japanese bonus track Don’t Hold Your Breath and the single edit of Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming.
