It's truly amazing to look back at the careers of the greatest rock 'n' roll bands, from The Beatles, to Sabbath, from Deep Purple to the Stones, and admire how they relased classic records just a short time apart. In the modern day some bands take an eternity to release a record, claiming it is such a torturous process, when the reality is they are just lazy. So, how dare the likes of The Beatles, Marc Bolan, Led Zeppelin etc, reel off hit after hit with a click of the fingers! 'Fireball' clatters in with the title-cut, Gillan off his rocker, the album cover alone a great selling point, the aching and chugging 'Demons Eye' thunders home, 'No One Came' has a funky flavour and 'Anyones Daughter' a jig of a jangle. In relation to 'In Rock', nothing overly spectacular here, but in 1972 Deep Purple would wave a magic wand made of lead...
