Stone Temple Pilots je americká rocková skupina, ktorá vznikla v San Diegu v roku 1989 a napriek koreňom v grunge vytvorila svojrázny zvuk spájajúci alternatívny rock s prvkami psychedelického rocku, blues a country.
Album Purple, vydaný Atlantic Records 7. júna 1994, je ich druhým štúdiovým počinom a prinieslo zásadný prelom – debutovalo na prvej priečke americkej Billboard Chart a predalo sa z neho viac ako šesť miliónov kópií. Album zachytáva skupinu na tvorivom vrchole: skladby Vasoline, Interstate Love Song a Big Empty (známa z filmu The Crow) spájajú silné riffy s melodickým cítením a teatrálnou vokálnou linkou Scotta Weilanda. Táto edícia na 5 CD obsahuje originálny album, demonahrávky a akustické verzie, dobový koncertný záznam z New Haven z 23. augusta 1994 i sedempalcový singel Interstate Love Song v limitovanom počte 1000 kusov.
V čase vydania albumu kapelu tvorili Scott Weiland (spev), bratia Dean DeLeo (gitara) a Robert DeLeo (basgitara) a Eric Kretz (bicie).
