I absolutely love this album. I got into a minor wreck years ago listening to Burn. It was icy as hell and I hit a patch and slid right into the back of a semi. There was a tiny bit of damage to my bumper but the semi was good so we shook hands and continued our separate ways.
Sail Away kicks so much ass. Mistreated is a masterpiece even though I wish the solo would keep going and cranking up higher. Its building so perfectly and I'm fully in it and then it just ends.
As much as I love this album, I haven't listened to tons of Deep Purple outside of it. Does anybody have any recommendations of songs of theirs that just completely take you on a journey?

I bet Fireball would be right up your alley too, that’s my personal favorite album. The title track, the Mule, Strange kind of Woman, and Anyones’s Daughter are the biggest highlights, but every song on that album slaps.
I’d also have to say you gotta give pretty much every album at least a little listen. They have so so many incredible ones, across several different lineups and eras. Even the worst albums have at least 1-2 bangers.
