    1998 studio album by Deep Purple

    The album was followed by a successful 1998/1999 world tour which brought Deep Purple to Australia for the first time in 15 years. In 1999 a live album and DVD Total Abandon: Australia `99 recorded in Melbourne on 20 April 1999 was released.

    The album title is actually a pun from Ian Gillan – "A Band On" – and the album was followed by the "A Band on Tour". It featured a reworking of a previously recorded song – "Bloodsucker" from Deep Purple in Rock (here spelled "Bludsucker"). "Don`t Make Me Happy" was mistakenly mastered in mono and not amended on the album, one of the two versions of the song released on a promotional single was mastered in stereo.

    The album cover art was designed by acclaimed album art designer, Ioannis.[3]

    Songs

    "Any Fule Kno That" is the first song on Abandon.[4] Vocalist Ian Gillan takes a spoken word approach in the verses to the song, comparable to rapping. The title is a popular phrase from the Nigel Molesworth books.[5] "Any Fule Kno That" became the band`s last charting single in the US, as it peaked at No. 25 on Billboard`s Heritage Rock Chart.[6]
