Cherry Red acquire Purple Records catalogue

Deep Purple‘s Seventies Rock imprint PURPLE RECORDS now joins our licensing roster, with collectable, hard-hitting LPs by Elf (featuring Ronnie James Dio), Silverhead, Tucky Buzzard, future disco queen Yvonne Elliman, Curtiss Maldoon (famously sampled by Madonna) and solo ventures by Deep Purple stalwarts Roger Glover (pictured) with his famous Butterfly Ball… project and Glenn Hughes.

Track Of The Week

FOXY FRIENDS

Noosha Fox and friends injected some sophisticated glamour into the UK charts of the mid-1970s. Fox‘s ‘Only You Can’ peaked at No. 3 while ‘S-S-S Single Bed‘ peaked one place lower. ‘If I Point At The Moon’, taken from their 1975 self-titled album, is a lilting, sublime pop ditty that sounds remarkably timeless. The song is featured in the US drama mini-series A Friend Of The Family, which aired recently on the Peacock network.
