Review - :
After satisfying all of their {\classical} music kinks with keyboard player {$Jon Lord}'s overblown {^Concerto for Group and Orchestra}, {$Deep Purple}'s soon to be classic Mark II version made its proper debut and established the sonic blueprint that would immortalize this lineup of the band on 1970's awesome {^In Rock}. The cacophony of sound (spearheaded by {$Ritchie Blackmore}'s blistering guitar solo) introducing opener {&"Speed King"} made it immediately obvious that the band was no longer fooling around, but the slightly less intense {&"Bloodsucker"} did afford stunned listeners a chance to catch their breaths before the band launched into the album's epic, ten-minute tour de force, {&"Child in Time."} In what still stands as arguably his single greatest performance, singer {$Ian Gillan} led his bandmates on a series of hypnotizing crescendos, from the song's gentle beginning through to its ear-shattering climax and then back again for an even more intense encore that brought the original vinyl album's seismic first side to a close. Side two opened with the searing power chords of {&"Flight of the Rat"} -- another example of the band's new take-no-prisoners {\hard rock} stance, though at nearly eight minutes, it too found room for some extended soloing from {$Blackmore} and {$Lord}. Next, {&"Into the Fire"} and {&"Living Wreck"} proved more concise but equally appealing, and though closer {&"Hard Lovin' Man"} finally saw the new-look {$Deep Purple} waffling on a bit too long before descending into feedback, the die was cast for one of {\heavy metal}'s defining albums. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide
