Cover VG+.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf all the multitudinous highways and byways down which the enterprising Deep Purple collector can travel, none, perhaps, is so surprising as The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast, Purple bassist Roger Glover's first \"solo\" album, and -- almost incidentally -- one of the most delightful children's records ever made. Yes, a children's record. In 1973, Glover was approached about creating a musical adaptation of artist Alan Aldridge and poet William Plomer's book of the same name -- a commission that surprised him, but which he nevertheless accepted. The book itself is delightful and, while Glover's work is unquestionably more heavily flavored by the near-psychedelia of the illustrations, the spirit of the text is retained as well, to create an album that stands among the few truly successful musical adaptations of an existing story yet committed to vinyl.  \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Roger_Glover\"\u003ehttp:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Roger_Glover\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracklist\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
