It's before Richie switched to Marshall amps, so it sounds very different than their later stuff.
Lord's counterrhytms on the organ are superb.

to the later stuff. Here's another from the record featuring Blackmore.

But, that's strictly a matter of taste.
I liked Blackmore's later tone more and when John L started running a second feed to Marshall's, hoo boy!
I also like Gillan's voice more than Rod Evans'.
But, their stuff from the early days was a little less heavy and even a bit prog. So, I can see why you'd prefer it.

I'm a Mitch Ryder fan and Evans sounds a lot like him on this album. Definitely more prog than heavy
