Album Notes: Deep Purple: Ian Gillan (vocals); Ritchie Blackmore (guitar); Jon Lord (keyboards); Roger Glover (bass); Ian Paice (drums). All tracks have been digitally remastered. After establishing itself as a hard-rock giant, thanks to endless touring and the release of such milestone records as MACHINE HEAD and IN ROCK, Deep Purple was in a state of turmoil when it went into the studio to record 1972's WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE Despite all the infighting, the band pulled together long enough to record seven tracks that only bolstered the band's reputation. The best-known song, "Woman From Tokyo," boasted a riff as memorable as the one that defined "Smoke on the Water" and was later admitted by Ritchie Blackmore to have been cribbed from Eric Clapton's "Cat Squirrel." Although Blackmore's always-impressive riffing stands out on such songs as "Mary Long" and "Place in Line," this album also spotlights how far Jon Lord's contributions on organ went toward defining the band's sound. Lord's mastery was such that in addition to the impressive solos on "Place in Line," his sweeping runs are the highlight of the stop-and-go "Rat Bat Blue." On this roller coaster ride of an album, the members of Deep Purple come together best on "Our Lady," a five-minute-plus epic driven by Lord's churning organ and Ian Gillan's Wagnerian vocals.
Advantages: Woman From Tokyo Disadvantages: All downhill for the band after this release
...This album, the fifth from DeepPurple Mark II, (Ian Gillan / Ritchie Blackmore / Jon Lord / Roger Glover / Ian Paice) seems to be something of a curio's egg these days - Rock Fans Of A Certain Age will all remember Child In Time, Speed King, Smoke On The Water and Lazy, but who remembers any of the tunes on here? Apart from the one about that sweet lady from the capital of Japan?
Understandable maybe, because after all weare talking about a band that had sired the great albums In Rock, Machine Head, Fireball and the live Made In Japan, so perhaps this was bound to be a little overlooked, much in the same way as, well, Radioheads "Hail To The Thief", good as it is, will not be mentioned in the same breath as "Kid A" or "OK Computer" will it?
When you also consider that by the time it was recorded (in Italy and Germany...

Advantages: A book with its heart in the right place Disadvantages: Common Decency is a thing of the past
...First we were told ? WeAre What We Eat? and a book was written to tell us what we should have for dinner if we want to be a healthier person. Now, weare reliably informed that WeAre What WeDo? and someone has written a book to tell us exactly how and what we should DO if we want to be a better person.
Eugenie Harvey started out life as a financial PR consultant who came to the blinding-light realisation that society over the years has changed for the worst - with the majority of people acting selfishly and with little regard for others.
Arriving at this conclusion, Harvey decided to write a manual that provided ideas about social awareness and positive behaviours, opening up the possibility that the general public could be guided towards greater understanding of how to behave more appropriately.

Advantages: Inspires a new thought process, affordable pricing Disadvantages: none
...?Change the World for a Fiver? is a book published by the Community Links Charity ?Weare What weDo? (www.wearewhatwedo.org). The book was published during 2004, and is attractive to the eye with its colourful dust jacket, which folds out to be a small poster highlighting some of the ideas contained within the book.
It is no surprise that the book itself is therefore priced at just £5, and makes an affordable gift for a friend or relative, and one whose value carries far beyond.
The concept behind the community wearewhatwedo is frighteningly simple. We live in a materialistic age, and we spend more and more money and own more things than ever before. Yet weare in general unhappy with our lot, with many of us experiencing some kind of poverty, in that despite material possessions are lives might just be missing something...
