I believe that a cover song rarely exceeds the original. It applies to this album. I am not saying this negatively. I am pretty sure that David did not intend to do that.
 
I love MK III Deep Purple. It brought new essence and variety to their hard rock music. I love every song in those two albums, "Burn" and "Stormbringer". Unfortunately, all of the songs in the album are down-tuned due to David's voice. It is kind of "modernized".
 
Yet, songs such as tracks 4 and 8 have great acoustic arrangement and I really loved it. Particulary, track 4 is revived as a new song! Even though he cannot sing as high as he used to, his mid-to-low range voice is very attractive.
