Deep Purple/London,UK 1971

During the 1972 European tour just before the release of “MACHINE HEAD”, three UK shows were held in the latter half of February, and in recent years, the first gig at Dagenham’s Roundhouse was held on February 19th. Recorded from the audience master, which was discovered for the first time and had the highest sound quality at that time. Unfortunately, it is not complete as it includes Pace’s drum solo, but the sound is powerful, with Ritchie’s guitar that feels like it’s sticking out from the speakers, and each member’s parts are clear, and Gillan’s vocals are especially impressive from beginning to end. The quality can be heard, and it can be said to be miraculous as an audience recording of this generation. Then, as soon as Pace set the rhythm and started with “Highway Star,” Richie’s guitar here had a pattern that slightly disrupted the original, a melodious solo, and a series of arming movements in the second half that were worth listening to. . Furthermore, “Child In Time” is a long play of 17 minutes, and the solos and interplay between Richie and John are amazing, especially Richie’s sharp and aggressive play in the second half is exquisite. In addition, in the second half, from the UK tour after the release of “Fireball” in 1971, from the live performance at the Royal Albert Hall in London on October 4th, there are only two songs, “Lazy” and “Fireball”, which are also the first in recent years. Recorded from the excavated audience master of the highest quality sound. Although they are all digests, they are must-have items for fans who can listen to live performances from the golden era in such high quality. 1. HIGHWAY STAR/2. STRANGE KIND OF WOMAN/3. NO NO NO/4.
