Deep Purple – Soldier of Fortune [audio only, studio version]
Soldier of Fortune is perhaps the best known song off Deep Purple’s 9th studio album, Stormbringer, released Dec 1974. The album marked a major shift in musical direction, where soul and funk elements became prominent. This displeased some fans and Blackmore himself, who left soon after the album release.
