The Battle Rages On...
(重定向自Nasty Piece of Work)
The Battle Rages On... is the fourteenth studio album by the British hard rock band Deep Purple, released in 1993. It is the last album recorded with the band's classic Mk II line-up, which reunited for a second time (the first reunion being for 1984's Perfect Strangers). Since Ian Gillan returned to the band in late 1992, he reworked much of the material already existing for the album. Ritchie Blackmore became infuriated at the non-melodic elements and quit during the tour in 1993, during 17 November show in Helsinki, Finland. American guitarist Joe Satriani joined Deep Purple as a temporary replacement for the duration of the tour.
