It will be the combination of a limited edition set of 150 pieces on purple vinyl and 350 more pieces on black vinyl in a gatefold sleeve and on 180 g vinyl.
The tracklist is a mixture of Nasty Habits songs and Mark 1 Deep Purple tracks.

The record came out on May 19th. It is only available on the Nasty Habits homepage. www.nastyhabits.eu

Unauthorized copying, while sometimes necessary, is never as good as the real thing
Still can’t understand how he got nixed by the Hall of Fame 😳😡

May 26th, 2018 at 12:43Sounds good to me!.
May 27th, 2018 at 08:08Why no CD? : – (
The new found love for vinyl escapes me, as regards bass frequencies (and isn’t that what Nick is about?), vinyl doesn’t stand a chance against CD.
I didn’t even hear Little Ian’s bass drum in Mk 1 oeuvre until I heard the first (not very well remastered, but still …) CDs of Mk 1, all of the sudden there was a bass drum on Lalena! ; – )
May 28th, 2018 at 18:34Great album from great musicians……..A must buy for folks that love early Purple.
May 30th, 2018 at 13:30D’ablo @1- Yes indeed, Nick Simper being excluded is a abomination, all that the ‘Hall’ represents in many ways! Why someone didn’t step in & ensure that Simper was rightfully included is beyond me. It happened this year with The Moody Blues, Denny Laine was included a few days later, after the core members that were being inducted was announced. Somebody obviously demanded that Laine be included & he was only a member for one album & a ‘hit’ single at the very beginning of The Moody Blues career.
June 6th, 2018 at 22:28As we all know or should know, Simper was an integral original member of DP, who was there at the beginning for 3 albums & Purple’s first US hit single, Hush! Call me a cynic, but I feel Simpers exclusion was deliberate, for some negative reason. Whoever was responsible should be, well I had better not put that into words! Cheers.
I always choose vinyl, because I love the extra expense & inconvenience….

June 26th, 2018 at 03:22I sent a few emails during the past month, trying to purchase a copy, and never got any kind of response.
@BreisHeim. Same for me. Send them a couple of emails to order the purple vinyl edition. Never got any response.
June 29th, 2018 at 12:55@Jeroen & @BreisHeim, i did order it about a month ago, the purple vinyl edition signed by Nick and the rest of the band.
July 7th, 2018 at 21:18And everything went well, yesterday i got it in the mail, contact was very good and the purchase went very smoothly.
I had no problems whatsoever.
