DEEP PURPLE 8-TRACK RIP! - THE SHEER HORROR OF THE ORIGINAL "BURN" ALBUM 1974 GROOVY BABY

Kind of a special post on this one and with a dedication as well to my ole pal, bosom buddy, chumley, and life-long friend. You know Ed over at Ed's Attic, the guy with the vinyl boots and softcore porn?
Marking a first for a 8-track rip, this sounds a lot better than it looks. The uploader uses a pro rig and the bottom end sounds great, a bit similar to vinyl, enjoy this rarity that ushered in a whole new Deep Purple era. Short-lived but tremendous.....The Horror!!
In 1974, Rolling Stone called this album "a passable but disappointing effort" and that the new material was "largely drab and ordinary,"....The Horror!! 
Did you have one of THESE when you were young? If so, congratulations, you're perfect for this blog....The Horror!!
THE SHEER HORROR!!
