Mandrake Root
"Mandrake Root" is a song by Deep Purple that is featured on their debut album ''Shades of Deep Purple''. The title is in reference to the hallucinogenic mandrake plant, but is also the name of a pre-Purple band that Blackmore was trying to form in Germany when he got the call from Deep Purple's original management.〔Welch, Chris.

==Recording==
Deep Purple recorded their first studio album in May 1968. Of the eight songs that were included, (an additional one, "Shadows", was cut as a demo but scrapped from the album), only four of them were written by the band itself. Additionally, one of these songs, "And the Address", is an instrumental. The studio version of "Mandrake Root" is just over six minutes long. Many full recordings of the live arrangement exceed the twenty minute mark.
"Mandrake Root" was performed and recorded at the same time as their first instrumental - "And the Address" - and was actually intended to be an instrumental at first. The song is primarily intended for solos, and the lyrics weren't added until after rehearsals took place before the album-recording of ''Shades of Deep Purple'' in May, 1968. It was recorded on Sunday, 12 May. The song features many sound effects, which were picked from the BBC Library.
