Deep Purple is a British rock group, and is also the name of a song composed by Peter De Rose, from which the band borrowed its name. They are considered to be heavy metal/hard rock pioneers together with Led Zeppelinand Black Sabbath. Formed in 1967, Deep Purple's early output ranged from pure pop (such as their cover of "Hush") to strongly classically influenced pieces (such as "April", from their third album). Their first few albums contained incredibly long solos including songs such as "Hey Joe" and "I'm So Glad" with a long solo before they even began their lyrics. Some classic anthems have come from that era of Deep Purple though, including songs such as "Anthem" and "Shield" which set the bar for some very influential songs.

Black Amp;White Lyrics
Deep Purple
Read all about it tell me
Have you heard the news
Captain bob he dont pay no dues
You know hes looking in my window
Hes stepping on my toes
Dont want the truth and it goes to show
I got a joker up my sleeve
I know what to believe
It aint right just because its in black and white
Find yourself a hero
Treat him like a friend
You build him up and tear him down again
It dont hold a candle hold it to the light
Check it out is it wrong or right
Is this the news of the world
Its just a pretty girl
Shes all the news thats fit to print in black and white
Inside information taken down note by note
A silent footstep thats all she wrote
Shit thats all she wrote
No need to worry the babys gone to bed
Dreaming dirty dreams in black and white and read
Now I got nothing to fear
Is this the scoop of the year
Headlines on my bathroom wall in black and white
