I suspect you haven't heard much of Deep Purple beyond their handful of
(huge) hits, but they were a very exciting live band, with an
improvisational bend (especially in the interplay between guitar and
keyboards). Pearl Jam is good also, but (particularly instrumentality)
they are certainly not better than Deep Purple.
