Fireball is a hard rock-album by Deep Purple. It was released in 1971 and was the second LP by the Mark II-lineup of the group.

On this LP you can find a little bit of pretty much everything. The hard rocking title track starts off the album, but here you also can find some blues on "Anyone's Daughter" and some signs of progressive rock on "Fools". The hit song from the album was the boogie-inspired "Strange Kind of Woman".
