Fireball is a hard rock album by Deep Purple. It was released in 1971 and was the second studio LP by the classic lineup of the group. On this LP you can find a little bit of pretty much everything. The hard rocking title track starts off the album, but here you also can find some country blues on "Anyone's Daughter" and some signs of progressive rock on "Fools". The hit single from the album sessions was the boogie-inspired "Strange Kind of Woman", which appeared on the U.S version of the album in place of "Demon's Eye". "Freedom" was an vain attempt to mimic the single hit formula of "Black Night".
