Who did Deep purple influence?

Deep Purple had a foot in the door of Progressive Rock, mainly through Jon Lord's classically-influenced contributions. But much of their influence stems from the pure rock sound exemplified by Richie Blackmore and Ian Gillan. Much of British rock music had blues influences (Clapton, Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones etc) but Deep Purple set the scene for what was to become Heavy Metal music later in the 1970s. Of the more successful bands, AC/DC, UFO and Judas Priest probably led the chase, followed by a clutch of bands appearing at the end of the 1970s: Saxon, Def Leppard, Iron Maiden, Magnum and other "New Wave of British Heavy Metal" bands. Indeed Judas Priest's sound in the late 1970s was very similar to Deep Purple's on tracks like Highway Star recorded some years earlier. It is probably too simple to attribute the whole of the NWOBHM to Deep Purple's influence given that other bands such The Scorpions and Black Sabbath were also performing heavy sets at around the same time. Yet Deep Purple were the biggest and most enduring of those early non-blues heavy rock bands and hence contributed more than any in paving the way for fans to discover other bands offering a similar type of music.
