Shades of Deep Purple is the debut album by English hard rock band Deep Purple, released in 1968 on Parlophone in the UK and Tetragrammaton in the United States.

The album reached #24 on Billboard's Pop Album charts in the U.S.

The song "Mandrake Root" would become an early concert staple for the band, with the keyboard and guitar solos extended at times for up to 15 minutes. A similar instrumental would be paired in later years with the extended live versions of "Space Truckin'." In the version of "Space Truckin'" recorded for the 1972 live Made In Japan album, a riff from "Mandrake Root" can be plainly heard during the instrumental parts.

The first two or so minutes of the fourth track "Prelude: Happiness" is a direct translation of the first movement of Scheherazade.
