Purple was a game-changer for Stone Temple Pilots. The album marked a significant departure from their debut album, Core , which had been released to critical acclaim in 1992. While Core had established the band's sound, Purple refined and expanded upon it, showcasing a more mature and experimental approach to songwriting. The album's lead single, "Vasoline," was a breakout hit, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, while the album itself peaked at No. 18 on the Billboard 200 chart.
The Super Deluxe reissue of Purple is a comprehensive package that celebrates the album's 20th anniversary. The remastered edition features the original album, plus a slew of bonus tracks, live recordings, and unreleased material. The album has been remastered by engineer Dave Pensado, who worked closely with the band to create a fresh, yet faithful, rendering of the original recordings.
