Deep Purple, Cheap Trick Deep Purple/UK 2011

This is a complete 113-minute digital audience recording of the LG Arena performance in Birmingham on November 27th, from the 2011 UK tour. The live performance of Cheap Trick, who participated as support at this performance, is also recorded on disc 1, and the Purple live performance is on disc 2 & 3. This tour was a live performance with an orchestra as part of the “The Songs That Built Rock” tour, and the performance starts with a live orchestral performance and starts with “Highway Star”, which is an immediate impact. Not only the rare “Hard Lovin’ Man”, but also “Rapture Of The Deep” and the familiar “Woman From Tokyo” are arranged differently from usual, and there are other highlights such as “Contact Lost”, where the melancholy melody is made even more moving by the orchestra, and “When A Blind Man Cries”, which combines the orchestra’s string section, Steve’s guitar, and Don Airey’s keyboard.
