Talk:Burn (Deep Purple album)

New rewrite as the album upcomingly turns 50.
On 15 February 1974, Burn was released, ultimately becoming one of my favorite albums in DP discography. As we celebrate the upcoming 50th anniversary of its release, I am currently working on a complete rewrite which I have been working on for some time with a bit of changes, article expansions, etc. Changes or edits during the re-writing are encouraged, and I will put it into the expansion if necessary. The rewrite will be published at the end of the day or by tomorrow. Thank you for the support! ExcitiveStan3680 Talk 14:06, 13 Feburary 2023 (UTC)

Bad writing in the article
I'd like to comment on the fact that the article is written in a very confused way, with lot of consecutio errors. I think someone should fix it and remove entire sentences that are quite unintellegible. 79.19.173.27 (talk) 20:56, 18 February 2024 (UTC)


 * What are "consecutio errors"? Do you mean the verb tenses don't agree? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:12, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. The Background section is really awful. 188.23.66.112 (talk) 15:10, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Who wrote the title track?
"All tracks are written by Ritchie Blackmore, David Coverdale, Jon Lord, Ian Paice and Glenn Hughes, except where noted"

Yes, but according to the song's article, Hughes was not involved in writing it. Which article is correct? Harfarhs (talk) 11:24, 3 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Hughes actually did co-wrote/contributed most of the songs except “Sail Away” and “Mistreated”, which I can see from the 2004 linear notes as it claims. Hughes says that his name would be on the credits or at least getting some royalty after almost 45 years according from a 2018 podcast interview. However, we should treat it as the original songwriting credits as most of the reissue pressings excluding 2004 does not have Hughes as the songwriter. I already have the note below the track listing about Hughes’ songwriting situation. ExcitiveStan3680 (talk) 18:27, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
