Deep Purple stands alongside Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath as part of the Holy Trinity of British hard rock. The list of the band’s classic songs is legion, and the influence it’s had on successive generations of musicians is both enduring and remarkable. Rhino will celebrate Deep Purple’s history with three definitive collections.
A Fire In The Sky will be available as a single CD and a three-CD set on September 8th in North America with an international release following later in the year. A three-LP version will also be available on November 3rd. Each version includes a selection of songs chosen from the 19 studio albums that Deep Purple recorded between 1968 and 2013.
The single-disc version of A Fire In The Sky features 20 songs and focuses mainly on the band’s singles. The heavy hitters are here of course – Smoke On The Water and Highway Star – but so are gems like Perfect Strangers, the title track from the band’s platinum-certified album from 1984, as well as Hell To Pay, from 2013’s Now What?!.
The three-disc version of A Fire In The Sky dives even deeper into Purple’s past with 40 songs and includes at least one track from every studio album through Now What?!. It also provides the ultimate showcase for the group’s various incarnations through the years. To date, more than a dozen musicians have appeared on a Deep Purple album.
Among the set’s many highlights are: the title track from 2005’s Rapture of the Deep; King of Dreams from 1990’s Slaves and Masters; Bad Attitude from 1987’s The House of Blue Light; You Keep Me Moving from 1975’s Come Taste The Band; and Hush from the group’s 1968 debut, Shades Of Deep Purple. This expanded version also features Kevin Shirley’s 2010 remix of Dealer, and the 2012 stereo mix for an early version of The Bird Has Flown.
A Fire In The Sky will also be available as a three-LP set that includes 27 songs. Among the highlights are the single edit version of Woman From Tokyo, the U.S. single edit for Burn, and the radio edit of Bad Attitude.

After the 2015 release of the self-titled debut album by Revolution Saints–Deen Castronovo (ex-Journey, Bad English), Doug Aldrich (The Dead Daisies, ex-Whitesnake, DIO), Jack Blades (Night Ranger, Damn Yankees)—rock fans around the world rejoiced at the inspired musical offering. Those fans will, once again, have cause for celebration as Revolution Saints will be releasing their second album later this year. The band has released a video for the title track to the new album, which can be seen, below.
Light In The Dark is due out October 13th on Frontiers Music Srl. The album will be available on CD, CD/DVD Deluxe Edition (includes live bonus tracks on the CD and on the DVD, footage from the band’s first-ever live performance captured at Frontiers Rock Festival in Milan this past April, a “Making Of” mini-documentary, and music videos for Light In The Dark and I Wouldn’t Change A Thing), Vinyl, and as a special Limited Edition Box Set (includes the Deluxe Edition CD/DVD, 180g Vinyl, T-shirt (size L), poster, lithograph and sticker). Pre-orders for all formats can be made at the following locations:
For Light In The Dark, Revolution Saints once again teamed up with producer/songwriter Alessandro Del Vecchio (Hardline, JORN), who was also behind the boards for the band’s debut album. Most of Light In The Dark was recorded at Del Vecchio’s studios in Somma Lombardo, Italy, with additional recording taking place at Blades’ studio in Washington, Aldrich’s CasaDala studio in Los Angeles, and other countries all over the world while Aldrich was on tour with The Dead Daisies.
“This is a fun band” exclaims bassist Jack Blades. “I think the fans are going to pick up on the excitement and the shear musical enjoyment we are having. It was great going to Italy to get the album started and film the videos, and the music speaks for itself.”
“Light In The Dark is such a great song,” continues singer/drummer Deen Castronovo. “It was the first one we recorded. We ran through it a few times and nailed it in the first couple takes. We’re so excited for everyone to hear this record. We’re very happy with what we came up with and can’t wait to bring it to everyone live.”
As guitarist Doug Aldrich proclaims, “I’m very excited about Revolution Saints’ second record. First I want to say that it’s because of huge support from the fans that RS2 happened. Thank you. If you liked [the first], I think you’ll love this one even more. It’s stronger, and a bit heavier in some spots. We tried a few new things and we can’t wait for our fans to hear it! There’s a very good chance we’ll finally get to play live and we’re currently exploring the possibilities of a tour. For now, get ready, because the album kicks ass and it’s comin’ at you real soon.”
Light In The Dark builds off the classic melodic rock style of the debut, but fans should prepare for a somehow even more inspired set and a few (pleasant) surprises. Inspiring, uplifting, emotionally powerful, and thoughtful, this album WILL be the soundtrack to many a moment in your life.
