About
From the opening metallic whoop of the title track, <i>Fireball</i> is an album of superlative heavy rock power and progressive intent, from a band delighting in their collective abilities. The relatively chipper and folky “Anyone’s Daughter” aside, it’s a collection in which the five players take a lead role, each instrument either weaving around the others and jostling for attention (“The Mule,” “No One Came”) or coming together in unison to deliver riffs of crushing intensity (“Fools,” “Demon’s Eye”).

Fireball is the fifth studio album by English rock band Deep Purple, recorded at various dates between September 1970 - June 1971 and released in July 1971.
Performed by:
Ritchie Blackmore • guitar / Ian Gillan • vocals / Jon Lord • keyboards / Ian Paice • drums / Roger Glover • bass guitar
Single released: Album track A1 - Fireball, backed by album track A3 - Demon's Eye.
This is the first UK Harvest release with boxed EMI logos on the labels.
Deep Purple planned to record a lengthier version of "Strange Kind Of Woman" to use on the album but they never got around to doing it. Warner however insisted the track appear on their version of the "Fireball" album (at the expense of "Demon's Eye"), and this turned out to be slightly longer than the UK single take.
