About this album

The Butterfly Ball And The Grasshopper's Feast is a whimsical and ambitious concept album from Roger Glover, bringing together a wide cast of guest vocalists and players for a fantasy-inspired rock suite. Released in 1974, it translates William Roscoe’s children’s poem into a richly imagined pop-rock setting, mixing character-driven songs with melodic hooks and a theatrical sense of narrative. Best known for the enduring cult favourite “Love Is All”, the album became the best-known solo project associated with the Deep Purple bassist, showing his flair for collaboration, arrangement and accessible songwriting beyond hard rock. Its playful concept and polished production have helped it remain a distinctive curio of 1970s rock.
