The package presents the band’s 1972 classic, “Machine Head”, through to 1987’s “The House Of Blue Light.”
Remastered from the original tapes - including the first official remasters of 1984’s “Perfect Strangers” and '87’s “The House Of The Blue Light” – “The Vinyl Collection” offers original inserts and replica sleeves pressed on 180gm vinyl.
Each album will also be made available as a stand-alone title.
Deep Purple are among the nominees for induction into the 2016 Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
The group are under consideration among 14 other artists for one of five spots in the Cleveland-based institution alongside Cheap Trick, Yes, The Cars and Steve Miller, among others.
An announcement regarding the 2016 inductees is expected soon.
