John, Cool I got you turned on to Stryper. They always considered themselves a rock band not a "Christian band" and don't care for that label. The Church gets all over them for what they are doing but they have reached a lot of people with God's message. My brother, a guitar player in a band (he was into all kinds or rock from the late 60s to death metal), and I sent him an album many years ago of the Daniel Band (Run From the Devil). He said it is cool how they can convey the message without being in your face with it (as in Bible thumping street preachers I guess).
Here is a good Stryper link besides their official stryper.com site: http://www.nolifetilmetal.com/stryper_cds.htm and here is an article on how they got going https://observer.com/2016/10/to-hel...yper-created-the-first-christian-metal-album/
Back to Deep Purple, one of my favorites is this song (hey, another one off Machine Head--that is my favorite album of theirs):
Love the harmonica part on this one!
