P.1 00:00 P.2 25:30 Entire album is highly enjoyable imo.... I like all of it but particularly love the beginning of P.2 @ 25:30 ...To me absolutely extraordinary The music press wrote a lot about it when record was released in 1973 as it was deemed very original and innovative....And different from the rest ( for that time ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tubular_Bells

From their best (IMVHO) album "Deep Purple In Rock" 1970 ( magical year for music ...Stunning albums were created...) All below songs are performed by the classic / epic somehow DP lineup ... Deep Purple In Rock, Fireball, Machine Head, Who Do We Think We Are, Made In Japan (live) albums Ritchie Blackmore – guitar Jon Lord (RIP) – keyboards, organ Ian Paice – drums, percussion Ian Gillan – lead vocals Roger Glover – bass This lineup ( the second one in the band's history) then crumbled after a few years mainly because there was a bad fight going on for quite some time between (great) vocalist Ian Gillan and Ritchie Blackmore ( acknowledged by many as an excellent guitarist but also crazy like a horse) They had gotten to the point of beating each other in a few occasions mainly due to Blackmore's temper........ Can't recall exactly...But one of those 2 (or both maybe) then left the band https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Purple
