Ever wonder why the kings of hard rock called themselves Deep Purple? Spoiler: It's not the color—it's a sassy 1963 chart-topper by sax-wielding Nino Tempo & whisper-queen April Stevens! This podcast spills the tea on the song's wild ride: from big band roots to a flubbed demo that became a Grammy goldmine.

Relive Nino's Hank Williams wail, April's "cute" narration trick, and Ritchie Blackmore's grandma fangirling over the single. Episodes riff on covers by Donny & Marie, band name drama, and why it outlasted the British Invasion.
