''The Book Of Taliesyn'' is the second album by Deep Purple, released in 1969 by EMI's Harvest Records in the UK, Tetragrammaton in the US and Polydor in Canada and Japan.

The album follows the psychedelic-pop sound of Shades of Deep Purple; however, there is a harder edge to several songs, beginning to show the new sound Deep Purple would introduce in 1970 with Deep Purple in Rock.

1. "Listen, Learn, Read On" (Blackmore, Evans, Lord, Paice) – 4:05
2. "Wring That Neck" (originally titled "Hard Road" in the USA) (Blackmore, Lord, Paice, Simper) – 5:13
3. "Kentucky Woman" (Neil Diamond) – 4:44
4. a) "Exposition (Blackmore, Simper, Lord, Paice)
   b) "We Can Work It Out" (Lennon/McCartney) – 7:06 (6:66 instead of 7:06 on the LP).
5. "Shield" (Blackmore, Evans, Lord) – 6:06
6. "Anthem" (Evans, Lord) – 6:31
7. "River Deep - Mountain High" (Jeff Barry, Ellie Greenwich, Phil Spector) – 10:12

PLEASE NOTE! I ALWAYS ADD THIS DISCLAIMER! PLEASE ALLOW FOR THE ODD STATIC(NOT) CONSISTANT THROUGHOUT THE AUDIO! ALTHOUGH I NEVER HEARD ANY PROBLEMS AND HAVE GIVEN MY HONEST OPINION WHEN DESCRIBING THE AUDIO QUALITY, THIS IS AN ORIGINAL VINYL THAT IS 40 YEARS OLD AND WOULD HAVE BEEN ORIGINALY PLAYED ON A 40 YEAR OLD SYSTEM!!!!

THIS HAS BEEN STORED IN A ASE LAYING DORMANT FOR AT LEAST 25 YEARS! A BUILD UP OF DIRT AND DUST IN THE GROOVES CAUSES STATIC CRACKLE\TICKS A CONSTANT CLEAN BEFORE EACH PLAY IS RECOMENDED! THIS REDUCES THIS STATIC AND ENHANCES THE AUDIO QUALITY!
