Default News - 2 Deep Purple CDs survived shuttle crash - AP

Taken from the group sci.space.shuttle, courtesy of Rusty B:
Astronaut Kalpana Chawla was a fan of the band and took three CDs into
space: Deep Purple's "Machine Head" and "Down To Earth," and Rainbow's
"Purpendicular."

That would be Deep Purple's "Machine Head" and "Purpendicular" and
Rainbow's "Down to earth". :^)
Rock Hall, but keep the "Purpendicular" one as a personal memento,
since two members of Rainbow are in the current lineup of Deep Purple.

Well, they are but Rainbow didn't do "Purpendicular". There weren't
two former Rainbow members in DP at the time of the "Purpendicular"
recording.

Details details, Svante, and we might know what album was played by what
band but the rest of the world probably don't give a damn. And then, two
Rainbow-ers in current line-up is true, and where it reads Purpendicular you
should read Down To Earth. Just to correct the corrector.
