Having evolved in 1968, Deep Purple has
become one of the great rock acts of all time. 30 years later,
and with 130 million album sales, Deep Purple continues to
deliver their brand of sophisticated rock 'n roll. With the
musical landscape changing in the late 80's and early 90's,
the band continued to play to huge audiences around the world.
With legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore leaving the band in
1993, this acted as a catalyst for the band to discover
unchartered territories. First with guitar guru Joe Satriani
as a temporary replacement, and ultimately with Steve Morse,
Deep Purple has spent the past 5 years demonstrating the
awesome energy and intensity that has earned them their
legendary rock superstar status.
This concert
presentation was recorded early in 1995, when the band took to
the road to showcase some of the tracks that would later make
it on to their critically acclaimed 1996 album "Pupendicular".
Amazingly, the master video tapes for this performance were
found lying around in an old cardboard box late in November
1999, and were long though lost. Apart from some audio
abnormalities in the first minute in the first minute of the
show, the tapes provide a rare insight into the extraordinary
talents of this truly great rock band. Given the fact that
Steve Morse had only performed a handful of gigs, the raw
energy and power is extraordinary.
With the added
twist, this Indian show was to support a local charity. The
Indian press gave the band extensive and unparalleled
coverage, with many reviews claiming it to be the best rock
show ever staged in India.
