This two-fer from hard rock legends Deep Purple features a pair of late-period offerings. 1992's generally well-received studio album The Battle Rages On. relied on the talents of the most popular iteration of the band (Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord, Roger Glover, and Ian Paice), while 1994's more divisive Come Hell or High Water offered up a less than enthusiastic live set that consisted mainly of tired readings of DP classics like "Highway Star" and "Smoke on the Water." ~ James Christopher Monger
