Deep Purple - Rapture Of The Deep (20th Anniversary - Black Vinyl)

2025 Reissue - 20th Anniversary - New Mix - New Artwork.

180 Gram Black Triple Vinyl in Gatefold Sleeve.

Twenty years after its initial release, Deep Purple's Rapture of the Deep returns in new splendor—completely remixed and remastered, with new artwork and a bonus disc featuring previously unreleased recordings. Remixed under the supervision of bassist Roger Glover and mastered analog at the renowned Chameleon Studios in Hamburg, ‘Rapture of the Deep’ finally shines with new clarity and depth. “For me, this is now a new album,” says Glover. For the first time, ‘Rapture of the Deep’ really blossoms. 

This anniversary edition also offers unprecedented insights into the band's creative process: the bonus disc features previously unheard studio jams and instrumental recordings from 2005—recorded during the songwriting sessions at the time and mixed for the first time in 2025. These include ‘Closing Note’, a previously unreleased instrumental piece by guitarist Steve Morse. 

With the current number one album ‘=1’ behind them, now is the perfect time to rediscover ‘Rapture of the Deep’ – or hear it for the first time: the album that paved Deep Purple's way into the 21st century.

Includes:
• Complete 2025 remix and analog remaster of the original album
• Two additional studio tracks: ‘Things I Never Said’ and 'MTV'
• Bonus LP featuring unreleased studio jams and rehearsals from 2005 – exclusive to all physical formats, not available via streaming or download
• New liner notes with insights from Roger Glover and classic rock veteran Geoff Barton
• Revised artwork and high-quality packaging with calendar embossing
