Product description

1984 saw the long-awaited reunion of the classic Deep Purple Mark II line-up of Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Jon Lord and Ian Paice. It was the first time they had been together since 1973. They recorded a brand new studio album, Perfect Strangers and headed out on tour. This show was filmed in Melbourne, Australia and is the only full length concert film of the band at this time. It s a stunning concert with the band in incendiary form. The setlist mixes then new tracks from the Perfect Strangers album with favourites from the early seventies culminating in the brilliant Smoke On The Water finale. This is without doubt one of the finest Deep Purple concerts ever filmed and a must have for their legions of fans. TRACKLISTING 1) Highway Star 2) Nobody s Home 3) Strange Kind Of Woman 4) A Gypsy s Kiss 5) Perfect Strangers 6) Under The Gun 7) Knocking At Your Back Door 8) Lazy (inc Ian Paice Drum Solo) 9) Child In Time 10) Difficult To Cure 11) Jon Lord Keyboard Solo 12) Space Truckin (in Ritchie Blackmore Guitar Solo) 13) Black Night 14) Speed King 15) Smoke On The Water

    ...when reunions actually meant something,this was a major deal,Deep Purple Mark 2 back together,its amazing to think its taken nearly 30 years to get a decent reunion tour album.I've been chewing my fingers off waiting for this to arrive.

    2 cd's of live Purple,Glover and Paice as ever, the imperious rythmn section holding it all together,Lord deftly adding layers here and there,no surprises there,however,it is always the 'other two' who can shape a Purple gig,are they on form,are they up for it,well thankfully its a resounding yes to both,sure Gillan's voice is sometimes strained,that said he's pretty damn good for the most part and Blackmore,well what can you say,he's on a mission,not content to play by the book,another reviewer, referred to his playing as 'loose',he certainly is,he's on that path that borders spontaniety and chaos,he straddles it well,just as you think its all going to collapse round about him,he pulls it back from the brink,as a Blackmore nut,i absolutely love that,casual listeners may be less impressed.It is great to hear 5 new tracks along side the classics .they all work well with only 'Gypsy's Kiss' sounding slightly rough.Nobody's Home is an absolute belter,should have remained a live favourite ,the rest well worn favourites 'Highway Star' superb as always and 'Smoke...' just mesmeric as ever,special mention for 'Strange Kind of Woman' also.

    The DVD is of its time,if your looking for a 22 camera shoot,camera's positioned here there and everywhere,with an editing sequence of new picture every other second(a la Steve Harris of Maiden fame),then your in the wrong place. Its dated approach/quality adds to the charm of this release,i'm not going to watch it over and over,prefer listening to the audio but its a genuine thrill to see the look of joy(yep thats right) between Blackmore and Gillan during the couple of occasions thay have their little interplays,its a pity they couldnt have seen it thru.Gillan of all of them,seems the most up for it,strutting around like the people's champion, fists pumping the air,clenched fist salutes to the crowds,just like the 'Gillan' days.

    Sound quality,have to say i'm very happy with it,a few have mentioned Lord low in the mix,cant say i felt that,listening on my set up(and it aint expensive by any means),Lord is there up front from the moment Highway Star requires keyboards,for me he's in the mix exactly where he should be,supporting the rthymn section and coming to the fore when the track demands a keyboard flourish or a solo,so i'm perfectly happy with the production.

    Its an easy 5 stars for another Purple Archive release.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good reunion show
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 October 2013

    I am reviewing the CD/DVD/L.P. edition. This set features a 1984 live in Australia show on DVD, 2-CD set and 2-L.P. set. The song contents are the same in each format. The reunited "Mark 2" line-up(Ian Gillan/Ritchie Blackmore/Jon Lord/Roger Glover/Ian Paice) was touring behind their reunion album "Perfect Strangers"(5 of the songs from the album were performed in this show) plus a selection of 1970-1972 hits. The group was not exactly picking up where they left off(where the group was when they split acrimoniously in mid-1973). Because of the need to fit more songs into this 2 hour show, songs would no longer be played at 15 to 20 minute length(mid-1980's audiences might not have had the attention span for such prolonged jamming, anyhow). There would also be no more exchanging solos(duels) between guitarist Ritchie Blackmore & keyboardist Jon Lord. The sound mix seems to underscore this change, because whenever Jon Lord isn't soloing, his keyboards are mixed down near inaudibility, then they become audible for solos. Ian Gillan's voice is already not quite what it was between 1969-1973. Certainly his normal vocal range is unaffected, but his high scream range is somewhat hoarse, less well controlled and with a reduced note range. Gillan takes some time to warm up(the vocal on "Nobody Home" is somewhat ragged) then he sings generally O.K., giving his all on Deep Purple classics such as "Child in Time", "Lazy" and the group's signature song "Smoke on The Water". The performance is a good one, if not quite up to the brilliance of a show that I saw in Florida in that same tour.

    The sound quality of the recording is generally quite good(excepting the questionable decision to mix Jon Lord down when he's not soloing). Ritchie Blackmore, Ian Paice & Roger Glover give fiery performances with abilities and passion undiminished by the years. I assume that the only audio source in existence is direct to stereo audio captured by the video crew, and that the recording does not exist in a remixable format. The surround sound on the DVD seems to be a simulated "upmix" from stereo. The picture quality of the DVD (which is NTSC) is generally excellent, however, the supplemental 22 minute documentary, in which all of the group members (excepting the notoriously un-talkative Ritchie Blackmore) are interviewed, is of fuzzy, less than VHS quality. The 2-CD set sounds fine(it contains the same stereo mix as the DVD). As for the 2-L.P. set, the records are flat, and the pressing is admirably quiet. The "Side Two" grooves were very, very slightly off-centre, but not enough to be audible.

    As for the 12" x 12" 3-panel gatefold L.P sleeve(which contains both vinyl records, the DVD & the 2-CD set), of all the vinyl L.P.'s I've ever received via mail, this L.P. sleeve was the most severely creased and damaged. I dreaded taking the vinyl records out of the sleeve, expecting that, surely, they would be shattered. Luckily the records arrived intact. Amazon.co.uk did a superb job packing the product(with no visible external damage to Amazon's carton), which means that the product was already damaged before Amazon.co.uk ever sent it. It had been damaged either at the factory, at the record company's warehouse or at Amazon.co.uk's warehouse. But the point I'm making is this: If Amazon warehouse/packaging facility workers see that a product is already quite visibly damaged, THEN DON'T DESPATCH IT to the customer. The cost of mailing the damaged set back from the U.S.A. to the UK would be prohibitive, and a replacement might be no better. Yes, the L.P.'s, DVD & CD's play fine, but the the badly damaged sleeve annoys the collector in me. The version with the vinyl records is exclusive to the UK, whereas the CD/DVD version is offered worldwide. I've been collecting Deep Purple group and solo recordings since 1970(when I was 14), and I have a large CD, DVD & L.P. collection of Deep Purple and Purple-related recordings, so the condition of the product DOES matter to me.

    Not sure why other people had to wait but my copy arrived on the release date as promised. I hadn't watched the DVD until tonight, not really a big fan of videos, DVDs or Blu Rays to be honest I'd much rather listen to the music but watching the DVD meant I heard the music from start to finish. I seldom play a CD all the way through these days. Other reviewers have said that Jon Lord is low in the mix can't say that i'd noticed but when I listen again I'll pay more attention. What I did notice that was that although these weren't perfect renditions they were certainly well played. Perfect Strangers is one of my favourite Purple Studio albums and I prefer their live work so when I ordered this I couldn't wait for it to be released. This is alive recording of my favourite songs from both the 70s and 80s and Purple deliver.Ian Paice and Roger Glover underpin each song with their rhythm work, Jon LOrd as ever is superb on the keyboards, Ian Gillan delivers a very good vocal performance which is ably matched by Ritchie Blackmore. Is this their best live recording? Probably not but it is yet another excellent live performance.

    Reviewed in the United States on 21 February 2014

    I bought the “box set” that had the 2 discs of the audio as well as the concert DVD along with a booklet. “Box set” is a bit of an overstatement. It is a CD case from which I have a hard time removing the CDs but the DVD seems to slide around a bit too free and easy. I’m hoping it doesn’t end up getting scratched.

    While the packaging was disappointing, the concert itself did not disappoint. The mix seemed to favor Blackmore’s guitar and Ian’s singing over the other instruments. Blackmore seemed reinvigorated with the reunion. His sound on this concert is fatter due to the effects than I am used to it being. He was aggressive much of the night. I wouldn’t say these were his best solos, but he’s leaving nothing back. Ian Gillan had an uneven night as his voice seemed to have some rough spots (I suspect he had a cold).. This is part of what drove Ritchie crazy, Ian didn’t seem to take care of his money maker. At times he seemed to forget some the lyrics as well. He discovered effects too, and there are songs with lots of echo on his voice.

    There are some differences between the 70′s edition of Deep Purple Mach II and this edition in addition to the technology. They seemed to up the tempo on many of the old songs. The solos were not as long either. As a result, they played far more songs than you’d find on any of their concert albums from the 70′s. They had 5 songs from the new album, Perfect Strangers, as well as some old standards taken mostly from In Rock and Machine Head. There is one holdover from Ritchie's Rainbow days- Difficult to Cure. So there is something for everyone, and no one should be disappointed. This was a great concert.

    As the liner notes indicate, this concert was from the beginning of the tour, before they added the lasers. The focus of the concert experience is the music and the dynamic between them. They were enjoying playing with one another again. Everyone has the chance to show their chops, except Roger. This set should find a home in any fan's collection. Just take special care of that DVD.
