Judging by the thick chugging that Deep Purple pull off as they enter "Highway Star" on this classic 1972 set, this band was of an era that appreciated size in sound. Ritchie Blackmore's guitar and Jon Lord's keyboards owned the evenings on the quintet's Japanese tour, giving the band a front-end density that kept drummer Ian Paice's snap heavy and loud. On tour in support of the album Machine Head, Deep Purple indulged in some great long-form jams, reaching into the 10-minute range for most of the main set and closing with the now-famed live read of "Space Truckin'." There's a reason this is regarded by many as one of hard rock's cornerstone live recordings. It's a boiler. This gold version of the title offers superior sound quality for a higher price than the standard-issue CD. --Andrew Bartlett

Customer Reviews:

MARK 2 LINE UP - MADE IN JAPAN.......2007-05-31

This is the famous line-up of Mark 2; Ian Gillan on vocals, Ritchie Blackmore on guitars, Roger Glover on bass, Jon Lord on keyboards and Ian Paice on the drums.

This is absolutely one of the best recorded live albums for me. Recorded live in Japan in 1972! Just buy the album and listen! If you own it in vinyl (LP) like me, it's better that you own it also in the form of a CD coz it's expanded with extra tracks like Black Night, Speed King and Lucille. These songs didn't appear in the first release of the album and even in the first release of the CD.

This is my third copy of this album already. I've got my first copy in the mid 70s and again in the 80s. Actually in the Philippines it was released as Made in Japan Volume 1 and Volume 2 in separate album.

All songs in the LP Volume 1 and 2 are in one CD only in this edition and the other CD contains the extra tracks from the same Japanese tour in 1972.

WOW - I forgot just how good it can get!.......2007-02-02

Perhaps I should thank those kids who stole all my CD's from my car. Cause now as I am replacing them, I'm also listening to some of the old classics. And Made in Japan is a classic!

Favorite song on the cd is Child In Time. But the entire CD is great!

If you like hard rock from the old days, this is a must have!

Driving a semi into space and never comin back!.......2006-12-19

This is fun and heavy music. Ian Gillian screams his head off, Ritchie Blackmore goes nuts with vibrato and tremolo on his Stratocaster, Jon Lord goes into intergalactic space and back with incredible Hammond electronic organ effects, and Roger Glover and Ian Paice somehow hold it all together in Japan. This is Deep Purple.

The music could easily fly over the edge with a lesser group, with such silly material as "Strange Kind of Woman" (a trite "girl I gotta have ya" rock song) or "The Mule" (with some totally bizarre lyrics flying into a drum solo), but Deep Purple somehow transform the fluff into amazing and deep music. I'd dare any other band out there to try this.

The high points are "Highway Star", which kicks things off with a bang, and "Lazy" and "Space Truckin'", which feature Jon Lord's bizarre virtuosity and cutting-edge analog modulation of the classic Hammond organ. The sound, although strange and definitely "70's", somehow holds up remarkably well 35 years later.

Everyone is in excellent form on the album. They hold their own and play well together.

Very good liner notes provide a glimpse into the concert, the band, and even how this was marketed at the time as the greatest concert ever recorded. That bold claim is not too far from the truth, even today. Speaking of recording, the sound is excellent, as it always has been, with excellent balance and clarity.

The three encores are an interesting, but not essential, addition. They're enjoyable, but unfortunately, they turn what could have been 1 CD into 2 CDs, making this more a little more expensive.

Overall, this is music that goes way over the top and rarely seems to come back, and it might not be for everyone. But if you enjoy hard rock and virtuosity, this is an essential purchase.

The promise of 70's hard rock is delivered.......2006-11-09

This could be one of the only hard rock cd's you ever need.

Fantastic from start to finish, this set shows everything that was right (and excessive) with the music scene in the early 70's.

Beyond any rating system

The best live album ever.......2006-10-16

This album alone, should put Deep Purple in the rock and roll hall of fame.

Made In Japan puts most live albums to shame, even the really good one's! A legendary band at their peak captured on tape forever. There is a god! This Remastered Edition is only better in that it has the great encore Black Night included on a three songs bonus disc.

Get it, turn it up and enjoy!

Album Description

After years of mystery in the vaults, the good folks at Warner Music/RHINO have given classic rockers Friday Music the keys to open up the magical hard rock kingdom of Deep Purple once again, as they re- release their incredible live recording " Made In Europe". This newly remastered disc is a fine sequel to their " Made In Japan" album, as it captured the new Mark III line up's excellent moments from the "Burn" and "Stormbringer" projects.

Ritchie Blackmore's famous opening riff kicks things into gear as "Burn" opens the album. The dual vocals of David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes ushered in a ton of praise throughout their amazing run together in the Purple, but this particular tune truly defines the spirit of this band as it became one of the more famous songs in the bands lengthy discography.

Never fear founder Jon Lord gets his solo on " You Fool No One" this extended version showcases his wonderful keyboard work, as Ian Paice delivers the stunning back beat throughout this impeccable performance. Again, another career defining moment from the vast Deep Purple catalog of songs. This live version takes the tune to another level indeed.

"Stormbringer" gets an anthem-like delivery from the band as Mr. Coverdale carries the beginning of this strong track with Glenn Hughes following with his incredible rocking harmony vocal style.

This album marks the last recordings of the Warner Music era with Ritchie Blackmore, as he left the band to pursue his incredible run with Rainbow, and to later re-join Deep Purple in the early 80's for their reunion tour and subsequent albums for several more years.

As a lasting statement of the energy of these metal rock founders, "Made In Europe" captures the energy of this band in a long lost era of great rock music. Fortunately, it was caught on tape over thirty years ago, and Friday Music has rescued it for the North American fans of this legendary band. Welcome back Deep Purple's "Made In Europe", newly remastered by Joe Reagoso ( David Lee Roth, Procol Harum, Johnny Winter) and sounding better than ever.

Deep Purple's classic Mark Three live album.......2007-08-01

Made in Europe (1975.)

INTRODUCTION:
Following the release of Deep Purple Mark Three's albums Burn and Stormbringer, the unthinkable happened - Ritchie Blackmore, the guitar genius who had given the band its immortal hard rock sound, was leaving. What resulted was a chain of events that ultimately lead to the band's breakup. Blackmore's final concerts with Deep Purple, prior to his being replaced by Tommy Bolin, were recorded in Spring of 1975. They were released on Made in Europe, released the following year.

OVERVIEW:
Made in Europe was released in 1976. The band features highlights from the final concerts of the Mark Three lineup, featuring David Coverdale, Glenn Hughes, Jon Lord, Ian Paice, and Ritchie Blackmore.

REVIEW:
These were Ritchie Blackmore's final concerts with Deep Purple (the first time around anyway) and they are excellent recordings that beautifully capture the sound of Coverdale-era DP. The album is a bit on the short side in comparison to other DP live albums but the quality is nothing less.

-SIDE 1-

-Burn:
The anthem of the Coverdale era kicks off this release, and this is a damn fine rendition. Featuring an extended introduction sequences and keyboard/guitar parts even more wild than the studio version, this was an awesome way to kick off the album.

-Mistreated:
Deep Purple's blues rock classic, this was one of the biggest hits of Coverdale's days with the band. It's not at all surprising to see the band decided to perform this one. Blackmore is on fire on this track, showing just how much he contributed to the band and would ultimately be missed.

-Lady Double Dealer:
This was one of my favorite songs from the Stormbringer album, and plenty of Deep Purple fans will back me up on that. With its awesome guitar parts and solid vocal delivery on Coverdale's part, this is an excellent version of a great Deep Purple song that doesn't seem to get the proper credit.

-SIDE 2-

-You Fool No One:
Nearly seventeen minutes long, this is the lengthiest track featured here. And yet, despite it all, the band manages to hold your attention all that time - as they always prove with these extended jams. The instrumental jam sequences are what make this version great. It's one of those songs that must be heard to be appreciated.

-Stormbringer:
What better way to close things out than with one of the other anthems of Coverdale's period with DP? This version of the song doesn't differ too substantially from the studio version, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Definitely a good way to finish things off.

OVERALL:
Overall this album could be thought of as Ritchie Blackmore's swansong with the band. Excellent recordings prior to his new beginnings with Rainbow. And an excellent swansong this is. An excellent release, and strongly recommended to any fan of the Mark Three era of the band.

EDITION NOTES:
Reissued on July 31, 2007, in America.

If you're made in England, you're built to last.......2007-07-03

After the twin triumphs of having "The One" peak in the US top ten and scoring a number one single with "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" from The Lion King," Elton was charging through the nineties on a renewed wave of success. In 1995, he released "Made In England," and the first single, "Believe." There is a sense of deep seriousness about that song, and Elton delivers it with a great deal of emotional force. Paul Buckmaster's strings accent the song perfectly. It is one of his best anthems in a long career and is the highlight of the album.

There more than a few change-ups on "Made In England." After several albums with Chris Thomas, new producer Greg Penny (former Elton cohort dating back to mixing "Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy") lightened up the sound to a point where it came closer to classic Elton than anything prior to "21 at 33." Bernie Taupin's lyrics were sharper than usual, a fact underscored by their terse single-word titles. And as they did on "The One's" "The Last Song," they took on a more serious topic in the lovely "Belfast."

It is a more jovial Elton that belts out the title track, which lives up to the line "here's my middle finger." A brief biography of Elton's childhood, it would have fit nicely on both "Captain Fantastic" or the recent "The Captain and the Kid." Along with the less interesting "Pain," it's the most upbeat song on the CD.

My personal favorite song on the album is "Blessed." With a lyric to an unborn child, it conveys all the love you can muster, cliches and all, for a baby to come. Bookending the album from the anthemish "Believe" ("Without love, I wouldn't believe in anything that lives and breathes") to the swelling expectations of the love for a life to come, it brought the album to a perfect close for me. Even though his output had slowed considerably since the glory years, Elton and Bernie proved again that they were capable of delivering quality music on "Made In England."

One of Elton John's 2 best albums.......2007-06-01

This album is the first revelation of the climax in the working collaboration between Elton's and his musical creativity and his lifetime friend and songwriter Bernie Taupin.
Favorites songs: Latitude, Belfast, Made in England and all the rest...

Also check "The Big Picture".

How in the world did this one slip by me?!.......2007-01-07

As a 35-year fan of Sir Elton John, I thought I'd heard all of them. I had never heard this CD before late 2005! It's extraordinary!

The album was produced by Greg Penny, who I must say I'm thoroughly unfamiliar with, but I have to applaud him. George Martin conducted the strings and orchestra for "Latitude", a bluegrass beauty that has me wanting to waltz every time I hear it! He was behind the Beatles' better work, and he's a man who obviously appreciates orchestration like I do. I'm definitely a sucker for a French horn in a song. Young people believe strings don't belong in popular music; that's unfortunate and it's their loss.

The great Paul Buckmaster conducted the London Session Orchestra on the songs "Believe", "House", "Cold", and the exquisite Celtic masterpiece, "Belfast", a song that absolutely brings tears to my eyes for its sheer beauty; it's outstanding. "Believe" was re-introduced to me through YouTube; it's a gorgeous work, with a powerful message and a great music video that went with it that features the Twin Towers in it and is done in black and white. Just gorgeous.

The title track is a hoot! In this homage to his birthplace Taupin writes, and Sir Elton sings: "you can still say 'homo' and everybody laughs!" And I found out that a blue Cortina is a car! "House" sounds as if it were written for or by John Lennon; this doesn't surprise me at all. I love "Pain"; it's an excellent uptempo rocker, and the lyrics definitely convey a sense of the pervasiveness of pain! "Please" has a rockabilly/Beach Boys feel to it that's very pleasant. I hear the organ by Paul Carrack on "Man", and it makes me think of the late Billy Preston. There's really not a bad song on the album. I don't think that's always been the case with his recordings of the 90s.

Can I talk about Sir Elton's musicianship? His powerful piano work in the song "Lies" is second-to-none, as it is throughout the album. Davy's guitar work is fabulous, and he obviously emulates the late George Harrison at times. I love listening to him. Sadly, Dee's been gone a while, but I wonder why Nigel wasn't a part of this recording? Charlie and Bob are admirable stand-ins, none the less.

Finally, reading Bernie Taupin's lyrics are a very good reason to forego downloading this once, at least until the booklet is available by download also.

Seems like I do remember the song "Blessed", but for some reason I never made the connection to this album. It's typical that the song they chose for the single wasn't the best choice. It's very mellow with a sweet sentiment, though, not the dance number I would have thought would have been radio-worthy. I have to keep in mind that there's a whole generation of people who don't realize that Elton John is first and foremost a piano man/saloon singer! Maybe the record company felt this would be the safest song to release, since that generation knows him primarily as a balladeer!

This album put me in mind to the old days when I would see the song titles on an Elton John record and try to imagine what the songs would be like while I saved up to buy it. I used a lot of allowance money on his records back in the day, and at 10 cents a week I sometimes had a long wait. If this one had been released in the 70s when I was a teen, and with its non-electronica, live instrument sound it easily could have, this would have been well worth the wait! It's the sound that made this black teenager stare at the stereo with open-mouthed wonder in 1972. Listening to strings in my music was no surprise to me, I grew up with the Motown sound and it was as common as copper pennies back then. I miss orchestration in today's music as much as I miss melody. For me, Elton John's "Made in England" album represents everything that's missing in today's popular music.

Made in England was a gift from Sir Elton John that I'm sorry about not remembering when it was a brand new recording in 1995. But I've got it now, drawn by the compelling CD cover shot by Greg Gorman of Sir Elton at his handsome best, and I'm sharing it with everybody I know who still appreciates good music, good vocals, good arrangements, and good songwriting. It's a classic.

A GREAT Album.......2006-09-23

If you enjoy Elton John's work of the early to mid 1990's Made In England will keep you smiling. No, it's not Madman Across The Water, but unlike some of Elton's music during the mid 1980's, there's a seriousness to this album that's refreshing. It appears Elton placed some emphasis on making a great album rather than just creating some good singles combined with filler songs.

The title track and Lies are fun and rockin' while Man has a tilt towards the gospely type songs E.J. excells with. Please, is catchy pop at it's best and I was disappointed it never bacame a single. It certainly would have been an automatic hit. In other areas, E.J. doesn't quite hit the mark as in the somewhat sappy, Blessed.

This was Elton John's best work in years up to that point. In my opinion, it's not the masterpiece of some of his 1970's albums but it ranks up there with his creative and throughly enjoyable albums of late such as Songs From The West Coast and The Captain & The Kid.

this is a fine album.......2006-09-07

in the mid 90's ELTON had a pretty good run THE ONE was a decent cd the LION KING was really big for him so this is a nice follow up. The stand out tracks were BELIEVE,BLESSED, PLEASE and one of my favorites LATITUDE,the song BELFAST could have been off MADMAN
or any of his early PAUL BUCKMASTER arrangements.well worth listening to.

Judging by the thick chugging that Deep Purple pull off as they enter "Highway Star" on this classic 1972 set, this band was of an era that appreciated size in sound. Ritchie Blackmore's guitar and Jon Lord's keyboards owned the evenings on the quintet's Japanese tour, giving the band a front-end density that kept drummer Ian Paice's snap heavy and loud. On tour in support of Machine Head, Deep Purple indulged in some great long-form jams, reaching into the 10-minute range for most of the main set and closing with the now-famed live read of "Space Truckin'." The prizes here fill the second, far shorter, CD, which consists of the encores Deep Purple played throughout the Japan tour. "Speed King" is another statement on the unflappable (and surprisingly unironic) focus that Blackmore and company had on either cars or their very rapid motion. There's a reason this is regarded by many as one of hard rock's cornerstone live recordings. It's a boiler. --Andrew Bartlett

Everything louder than everything else..........2007-04-07

Last May, VH1 did a special on the history of heavy metal which was broadcast over four nights and while it was enjoyable it was also remarkable who they had elected to omit and who they included. Calling KISS's landmark lp 'Alive' metal's first live album was grossly inaccurate as Deep Purple, an genre innovator whose contributions to metal seem to be neglected by revisonists, actually released THE first heavy metal live record in December of 1972. 'Made in Japan' can not only lay claim to being one of the first warts and all live documents of super heavy music but it also one of the genre's finest early momunments and the shining jewel in the Purple catalogue. Though they were falling apart at the seams internally, the Mark II lineup was in its fabulous glory and totally unified on the stages of Osaka and Tokyo during August of '72. The band was playing the greatest versions of their best songs which is always the mark of a great line record, historically relevant and outdoing what was recorded in the studio. The epic length of such cuts as "Child in Time", "Strange Kind of Woman", "The Mule", "Lazy" and closer "Space Truckin'" feature not one wasted note. Gillan proves his worth as emcee of the loudest and most exciting live band in the world and his performance is magnificent ("Child in Time" - scary good, "Strange"- virtoistic and funny at the same time). Blackmore is the master! ("Highway Star", "Strange" and of course "Child in Time" - just the best in the business at playing lead guitar). Lord, organist supreme and causing pain and pleasure during "Lazy" and "Space Truckin'". Paice shows he may have been John Bonham's biggest rival as he shreds during "The Mule". Glover's bass raises goosebumps as he enters "Smoke on the Water" - for many the definitive version of that song, though you could say the same for all seven cuts. Bonus CD is emmense with "Black Night", "Speed King" and "Lucille" contributing to the sonic celebration. Deep Purple may not be respected much today in the heavy metal annals but they are right up there with Zeppelin and Sabbath in my humble opinion. Neither one of those bands created a lasting live document during their peak years (though we waited 30 years for 'West Was One'!). Purple should be in the insanely stupid hall of fame for many reasons but maybe because of what happened on three nights in the Far East most of all.

Before Peter Frampton, Kiss, and UFO's live albums... there was "Made In Japan" .......2007-01-11

THE BAND: Ritchie Blackmore (guitars), Ian Gillan (vocals), Jon Lord (keyboards), Roger Glover (bass), Ian Paice (drums & percussion).

THE DISC: (1973) Originally 7 songs clocking in at 77 minutes; 2 vinyl album presented on one disc. This digitally remastered "25th Anniversary" edition (1998) contains a 2nd disc with 3 bonus songs, "Black Night", "Speed King" and a 50's cover "Lucille". Disc-2 clocks in at approximately 21 minutes. Included with the discs is a 14-page booklet with original artwork and bonus color band photos, song titles, song times, and a brief 3-page intro. Songs recorded live in Tokyo and Osaka, Japan. There is also a (most complete) rare 3-disc version availabe as well. Originally on Warner Bros label, this remastered edition is on Rhino.

COMMENTS: "Made In Japan" is perhaps one of the best live recordings of a hard rock / heavy metal act ever. Think of the other classic acts that had great live albums from the past... Peter Frampton, Led Zeppelin, Kiss, Foghat, UFO, Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc. "Made In Japan" offers the complete package - excellent sound quality/production, emotion, energy, excitement, audience participation, and a great selection of songs. The audience was respectfully quiet during the songs and really let it out in between them. Incredibly, no added audience filler noise! The slower parts of "Child In Time" - you can hear a pin drop. It's interesting to listen, when "Smoke On The Water" is introduced by Gillan the crowd is silent... almost like they're not sure what they're about to hear. The 6 minute drum solo on "The Mule" was enthralling from Ian Paice - one of my favorite all-time rock drummers. Jon Lord's keyboard work is 2nd to none. His best work on this album is on the songs "Lazy" and "Child In Time". Seems that Lord and Blackmore had some great fun dueling back and forth. Some of the tunes, like "Strange Kind of Woman" and "Child In Time" sound better here than on the studio album. Gillan's interaction with the audience at the end of "Strange Kind Of Woman" is priceless. Ritchie Blackmore's trademark guitar sound and blistering solo's are amazing. 7 total songs - short track list but 6 of the 7 songs are 9+ minutes or longer. Two songs ("The Mule", Strange Kind Of Woman") from "Fireball"; one song ("Child In Time") from "In Rock"; and four from "Machne Head". The album closer is the marathon "Space Truckin'" clocking in at just under 20 minutes. "Made In Japan" is a highlight reel of two great shows on the "Machine Head Tour" in '73. The only thing wrong with this original issue is that it's just not long enough. Now, with the remastered "25th Anniversary" edition you can buy more of the show. Classic disc (5 stars).

The real granddaddy of all rock double live albums of the 1970s.......2006-11-03

Deep Purple's classic double live album Made in Japan was released in December of 1972 in the UK and in January of 1973 in the US.
The album was recorded as Deep Purple were touring in support of their classic album Machine Head in Japan in August of 1972 by engineer Martin Birch during the Japanese leg of Purple's tour. The versions on the album were the best performances of each track.
We begin the first side of the album with a stellar version of Highway Star done with more power and finesse than the studio version as lead singer Ian Gillan sings and screams his heart out and guitarist Ritchie Blackmore plays like a demon possessed. Next is a stellar version of the epic Child in Time which buries its studio counterpart by a longshot. I swear Gillan's screams on here were unearthly. Keyboardist Jon Lord is incredible here as is Blackmore's insane guitar work.
The album's original second side kicked off with the definitive version of Smoke On the Water. This version blows the studio version into the water as it has more guts and power than the studio version. Also, Blackmore gets to stretch out here as does Lord at the end of the track. Next is The Mule which is drummer Ian Paice's killer drum solo and proves he is arguably the best left handed drummer in all of rock and roll history.
The original double album's second disc and third side starts with a stellar version of Strange Kind of Woman which is an amazing version of that stellar track. We then follow with an excellent version of the Machine Head album track Lazy which has some excellent bass playing from Roger Glover plus Gillan screams his lungs out and plays some mean harmonica. Lastly Messieurs Lord, Blackmore and Paice play the track as if they were playing their last concert.
The album's original last side was taken up by an almost 20 minute version of the classic Machine Head track Space Truckin'. This version starts out as a jam before going into a killer version of the track and ending with a 15 minute or so jam with all four band members playing like their lives depended on it.
Made in Japan was also a first in live album history as there were NO OVERDUBS whatsoever on the album. Furthermore, much to the chagrin of KISS fans and those who love Alive, Made in Japan was one of the first double albums to chart in the US Top 10 as it reached #6 on the Billboard album charts in 1973 thanks to the live Smoke On the Water and has sold a million plus in the US.
In 1998, the album was re-released with a bonus CD that had THREE KILLER ENCORES. We start with a killer version of Black Night which was released as a B-side. Then a stellar rendition of Speed King which rivals its studio counterpart. Lastly, we end with a killer version of the old 1950s classic Lucille.
Made in Japan was proof that the live album did matter and is possibly the best live album of the 1970s hands down!

When I first started listening to heavy metal, I started with a lot of the 80s and early 90s standards--Death's Leprosy, Slayer's South of Heaven, Metallica's Master of Puppets, Judas Priest's British Steel, Iron Maiden's Number of the Beast, Morbid Angel's Blessed Are the Sick, etc. Later on, I've been able to explore the earlier roots of Metal and found that, no matter how extreme or avant-garde bands like Emperor, Morbid Angel, or Nile claim to be, there is a wealth of material from the 70s that stands far above the most unique metal of modern times: maybe the only modern piece near that quality is Dødheimsgard's 666 International. This live recording of Deep Purple is one of the greatest examples of this truly unique and experimental style of metal; it is even more impressive given that this was recorded in the earliest days of the genre. The songs are much longer versions of their studio counterparts: they consist of long and masterful jams and improvisation mixed into the structure of the album versions. The longest, Space Truckin', runs just under 20 minutes. All the selections on this recording features ecstatic guitar runs and frenzied organ blasts running over complicated, and crushingly heavy, bass and drum performances. Add to this Ian Gillan's powerful vocals, and you have one of the most "metallic" pieces of Metal ever created. It will definitely appeal to fans of Rush's 2112 and Farewell to Kings, Black Sabbath's S/T and Paranoid, Judas Priest's Sad Wings of Destiny and Sin After Sin. Listen to this album and you will see that, while a lot of modern metal is actually quite good, it's not truly great like this.

An amazing sonic experience -- under the circumstances.......2006-02-17

I loved this album back in 1972 and I'm still amazed by it's sonic impact today. Deep Purple's recording engineer Martin Burch was asked to capture some shows from the 1972 Machine Head Tour on tape. During the August 1972 Japanese leg of the tour, he had his chance to record. Burch was supplied with an unimpressive, cheap looking Ampex 8-track recorder to get the job done. Burch was dissapointed with the equipment he was given and was certain that the results would be a total waste of his time.
When the entourage arrived back in England, Martin Burch took the time to throw the eight track recording tapes onto a studio deck and have a listen. COMPLETE AND TOTAL SHOCK !!! The combination of skillful microphone placement, concert hall acoustics and the unexpected superior performance of that little Ampex tape deck had collectively ganged up to captured one of the finest quality live rock recordings of all time.

Deep Purple's finest hour live.......2007-07-24

Made in Japan (1972.)

INTRODUCTION:
In 1972 Deep Purple was on top of the world. By now Ritchie Blackmore had taken creative control of the band away from Jon Lord, and they were straight-up hard rockers loved all the world round. After releasing the Machine Head album, the band had reached a new high, both in terms of popularity and the quality of their music. The band tourned the world following Machine Head's release. Highlights from August 1972 Japanese shows on this tour became the basis for the band's live release, Made in Japan.

OVERVIEW:
Made in Japan was released in December 1972. The album featured the classic Mark Two lineup of Gillan, Glover, Paice, Lord, and Blackmore. The shows featured on the album were recorded in August 1972 in Japan. The vinyl was a two LP set, but was combined to a single disc for the CD reissues.

REVIEW:
Deep Purple's first live album after Ritchie Blackmore became the man in creative control is, easily, their greatest live album ever. Enough said. If you want one live album that captures the band's finest lineup in its prime, look no further than this - arguably the greatest live rock album on the seventies. This is the band doing what they do best, better than ever before.

-SIDE 1-

-Highway Star:
The band kicks things off in style, with an awesome live rendition of one of the finest songs off of their then-latest album, Machine Head. This extended cut of this masterpiece rocks harder and louder than the studio version - Jon Lord's keyboard parts are noticeably better than they were in the studio. Awesome intro piece to this great album.

-Child in Time:
Ahh, the gloomy, melodic piece from Deep Purple in Rock. The studio version ran over ten minutes in length, and this cut runs even longer! Much like the previous track, the band does an even better version here than they did in the studio. Jon Lord steals the show with his intricate keyboard melodies, and as always, Ritchie Blackmore blows you away with his always-excellent solos - this guy knew how to rock back in the day. Great song.

-SIDE 2-

-Smoke on the Water:
Deep Purple's most popular song ever gets new life breathed into it. Of all the songs on here, this is probably the one that received the fewest changes from its studio counterpart when played live here, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Blackmore throws in some extra riffs for good measure, and the band drags things out longer with an extended outro. A great live cut of this rock anthem.

-The Mule:
This rock tune was one of the most underrated songs on Fireball - I'm so glad to see the band decided to give it a chance on this live release. This version is twice as long as its studio counterpart, due mostly to the fact that Ian Paice gets a chance to show off in the form of a drum solo. Granted, this is more a drum solo than anything else - only about two to three minutes actually feature the rest of the band - but I'm not complaining. Great song.

-SIDE 3-

-Strange Kind of Woman:
The live take of this old masterpiece throws in plenty of new instrumental parts to keep things interesting. Each member of the band gets a chance to shine on this new take of an old favorite. Once again, it's a track that's definitely worthwhile listening.

-Lazy:
Machine Head's blues-based classic is yet another song from that album that gets a revamp for this classic live release. The latter half of the song is particularly loud and interesting. I was questionable about the band using this song on this album being that there were songs from the album I believed would have been better choices (Never Before, Pictures of Home), but after hearing this live rendition, I shut up right away.

-SIDE 4-

-Space Truckin':
This version of this classic track is so long, on the original LP it occupied an entire side! For twenty minutes, the band rocks out like there's no tomorrow. You'd thing a twenty-minute jam session would be of questionable quality and scattershot at best - but Deep Purple shatters your doubts with this song. This is the definitive live version of this masterpiece. Great album closer.

OVERALL:
Deep Purple Mark Two at their very best. Enough said. If you only buy one Deep Purple live release, make it this one. This is the band doing what they do best - better than ever before. Highly recommended to any fan of Deep Purple or classic rock/hard rock in general.

EDITION NOTES:
There are numerous editions of this album out there.

-Original: The original album, exactly as it appeared on vinyl, with both LPs combined onto one CD. This is the most abundant version of the album and the one I recommend.

-Twenty-Fifth Anniversary: Same as the original album, but includes an extra CD with three bonus encores. The second CD is only twenty minutes long, though. Don't get this version unless you can get a good deal on it. Otherwise the original single-CD version is a better value. The extra cost isn't worth it for just three extra tracks.

-LIVE In Japan: This is a multiple-CD set of the separate concerts in their entirety that became the basis for Made in Japan. This is the set Purple die-hards will want in their collection. However, it's very expensive, and since they are complete, separate concerts, a lot of tracks repeat. For die-hards only.

One of rock's great live sets.......2007-01-17

Live albums historically have taken one of two routes - cheap retread contract obligation releases that are recycled and often horribly produced "greatest hits" abominations, and the occasional release that becomes a definitive masterpiece.
Among those discs that have become classics among live releases include The Who's "Live At Leeds", Hendrix' out of print "The Jimi Hendrix Concerts" and "Band of Gypsys", and Cheap Trick's phenomenal "Live At Budokan", which is now available in the full length version.
Deep Purple too enters the pantheon of great live bands for the 1973 release "Made In Japan". Featuring the "classic" lineup (Blackmore, Gillan, Lord, Paice and Glover), the band was on fire in support of their break-through "Machine Head" album and its anthem "Smoke On The Water".
In comparison to the studio versions, cuts like "Highway Star", the aforementioned "Smoke On The Water" and the album closer "Space Truckin'" are far superior - louder, brighter and far more intense, like great live rock should be.
Blackmore is in fine form here, and maybe was actually enjoying himself for a change as supposed to being the violent and moody jerk he's famous for. Personalities aside, his guitar is punishing, slicing, and in the case of "Highway Star", as mind-blowing as any guitar solo ever got. Ian Gillan puncuates the set with his ungodly vocal range and power, showing that he was and is the best voice ever for Purple, with or without Blackmore. Jon Lord's space age Hammond organ and Paice's military drum style round out the sound with precision and power.
We would see this pattern of weak studio albums made into live monsters in the future, ala KISS' "Alive!" and Cheap Trick. "Made In Japan" is truly a live album that very few bands ever came close to duplicating.

Classic dusted down and polished up.......2007-01-08

The ultimate live Purple album? The definitive concert recording by the Mk II line-up? Certainly during the 70s, when rock was in its teens, Made in Japan reigned supreme as the must-have double-live heavy rock album. In fact you didn't need any other record.
Made in Japan holds special significance for many music lovers who grew up in the 1970s and is therefore more of a cultural milestone than 4 sides of recorded music. Even the mistakes have become part of the legend.
This reputation is deserved, most assuredly. Particularly if you compare it to other Purple live recordings, many - well most, actually - of which are p**s poor in comparison. Except for the excellent Live in Concert package.
There are other reasons for Made in Japan's special magic. The musical dexterity of Messrs. Blackmore, Lord, Paice, Glover and Gillan combined with powerful, tight, punchy performances combined with the fullness of the live sound conjured up the perfect musical storm. Because make no mistake, although Purple never were or ever pretended to be metal like Sabbath, they rocked. Hard.
Another factor that enhances the magical ambiance of this record is the hushed reverence of the fans, who politely refrain from showing their appreciation until the very last note has faded out. And then they clap - no shouting, no whistling, no catcalls, no whooping or hollering - just clapping. It's great. and it's just one of things that makes Made in Japan a more nuanced, soulful record than other live doubles like Blue Öyster Cult's On Your Feet..., Ted Nugent's Double Live Gonzo, Thin Lizzy's Live and Dangerous and UFO's Strangers in the Night.
1972 also arguably saw Deep Purple at their peek, their chemistry is amazing. They'd just delivered the awesome Machine Head album - from which most of these songs are culled - and were now laying low the mountains of the world (or a doing good tour anyway).
And let's not forget the individual musicians: Gillan's powerful, 23-octave voice; Jon Lord's strong, classy organwork (Purple's primary colour); Ian Paice's jaw-droppingly good drumming; Roger Glover's fluid, pulsing bass and Ritchie Blackmore laying down guitar rock history. And add the amazing chemistry between them that was never reproduced with other line-ups.
Peaks? It's all good, although some of the extended solo passages have perhaps not aged as well as well as the songs. The boys in Deep Purple all share a love of early rock n'roll and deliver a pedal-to-the-metal, amps-up-11 version of Lucille. There are also tear-it-up renditions of Speed King from the In Rock album and Fireball and the Mule from 1971's Fireball.
I'll be honest here, musically there are better versions of Space Trucking and Highway Star on the Live in Concert album recorded by the BBC in London in 1972, shortly before the titular tour of Japan (the sound quality is more pristine), but for sheer atmosphere, nostalgia and soul, you can't go wrong with Made In Japan.

The greatest live recording of them all.......2006-10-23

This is Deep Purple live in the summer of 1972 when they were at the top of their game.

This band was considered by many fans and critics to be the best live band of all time. See what all the fuss is about and get this disc right away. If you have a little extra to spend, then check out the re-mastered edition which includes a three song bonus disc, featuring the blistering encore "Black Night." A recording that Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickenson called Deep Purple in full war cry!

Essential rock music.

The best live album ever.......2006-10-16

This album alone, should have put Deep Purple in the rock and roll hall of fame.

Made In Japan puts most live albums to shame, even the really good one's! A legendary band at their peak captured on tape forever. There is a god!

If you want the Remastered Edition (black cover), you'll also the great encore Black Night included on a three songs bonus disc. But the sound isn't a lot better, just different.

Get it, turn it up and enjoy!

Live masterpiece from the Mark Three era.......2007-07-25

an excellent yet underrated Album.......2007-07-19

Released after Ritchie Blackmore had re-emerged with his musical powerhouse RAINBOW, and after (or during the same time as) DP's disasterous tour with Tommy Bolin, Made in Europe seems like an attempt to try and see lightning strike twice (after striking with Made in Japan). Well, they did more than that with this Album

Blackmore's performances are top-notch... he's 100% on his game and plays better than ever. It is hard to believe that during these shows he was already making plans to leave DP. Lord's solos and especially his solo spot are also remarkable, and Ian Paice extends his bounds and more than rivals John Bonham. The difference here is David Coverdale and Glen Hughes. Coverdale, long before wailing in Whitesnake, delivers a flawless performance. His voice is much more bluesy and warm than Ian Gillan's voice, and his inflections are great. Hughes, straight out of the band Trapeze, does well as a replacement for Roger Glover (who would later re-immerge in Blackmore's Rainbow), and sings as well. Some say he outclasses Coverdale (well, I read that on Hughes' website), but I think they compliment each other well: neither is better than the other, although I prefer Coverdale's bluesy raspiness to Hughes' high-pitched wailing.

This CD represents what WAS Mark 3 Deep Purple. The best of the best. Subsequence releases such as "The Final Concerts" and the Mark 4 (Bolin) releases like "Last Concert in Japan" are more of the 'last minute' efforts to cash in. This CD is an excellent live CD, and can easily go hand-in-hand w/ Made in Japan as a live document of the band

Ritchie saved his best Deep Purple performances for last.......2007-02-18

The last gigs with Ritchie Blackmore before he left to form Rainbow. This is the most high energy playing in Ritchies career, possibly because he was not happy with the lineup at the time and had one foot out the door. He leaves us an incredible album to be forever remembered in time.
1. Burn - Paicey is even faster and better than the studio version
2. Mistreated (Interpolating Rock Me Baby)- Coverdales signature number
3. Lady Double Dealer - Get outta my way!
4. You Fool No One - Drum/Key solo good song and some difficult drum time signatures
5. Stormbringer - prelude to Rainbow, Ritchies next project.

MKIII Peak...Deep Purple live in Europe '75.......2006-12-18

Here were Deep Purple riding high in '75. A great sounding recording of the MKIII lineup, with Blackmore, Lord and Paice clicking in high gear, with Coverdale and Hughes sounding so good, you'll be proud to be a fan. One of Deep Purple's best live recordings and one of the best live albums of the later 70's, along with "Wings Over America" and Cheap Trick "Live at Budokan."

The other great live album from Deep Purple .......2006-12-15

The opening song "Burn" makes for a powerful start, but also "Mistreated" and "Lady Double Dealer" come off really well, very exciting. But, "You Fool No One" is the real masterpiece here, sounding much stronger than the studio version, with a great keyboard opening from Jon Lord and some brilliant soloing from Ritchie Blackmore and furious drumming from Ian Paice. To close out the disc is an excellent version of "Strombringer."

Made In Europe a solid listen throughout, but it isn't quite on the level of Made In Japan, but what is?

Note: Made In Europe and Mark III The Final Concerts (Archives Alive in U.S.A.) are two completely different releases. Both recorded in April 1975 and consist of the last three concerts with Blackmore. Mark III The Final Concerts consists of unreleased tracks left off of Made In Europe and contains the entire setlist (with two alternative versions) in the right order.

Fine reissue of a classic set.......2006-05-24

Think about the stupidest, most formulaic Hollywood movies you can think of: cheesy action pictures, fluffy, unfunny comedies, big but stiff epics. Now imagine that one of the greatest living composers was working in Hollywood, turning out astonishing, hauntingly beautiful and stirring musical scores for these throwaway movies. That's what you get with this set: music Henry Purcell composed for some two dozen often utterly forgettable plays (trust me--I've read a number of them!) Occasionally, when he teams up with a playwright worthy of his stature, such as John Dryden, Aphra Behn, or William Congreve, the results are even better, but for the most part you can enjoy the music here without knowing anything about the original plays.

This set originally appeared as separate LPs in the 70s and 80s, and has been long out of print. That's a pity, since Purcell spent a good deal of his short professional life in the theatre, either writing the incidental music contained on these CDs, or the music for his larger works, the semi-operas (King Arthur, The Fairy Queen, and the like). Almost all of these works are enjoyable gems; certainly, they represent a pinnacle of English 17th century music. Purcell had a genius for spinning musical gold out of the most leaden lyrics (check out his Odes and Welcome Songs on Hyperion if you don't believe me), and he does the same with the song texts in these plays.

Hogwood and the AAM offer clean, listenable performances, and the sound on these old analog discs has been cleaned up and brightened--although they were pretty good, even in the late 70s. As with most Hogwood, emotional extremes are kept to a minimum, so the "otherworldly" nature of late 17th century music, so often emphasised in more recent Baroque performances, doesn't come across here. It would be interesting to see what a group like The King's Consort would do with this music, but this set fills the major gap in the Purcell canon quite nicely.

My only beef with the reissue, as with many reissues, is that the liner notes are rather thin for a 6-cd set--the lyrics to the songs, for example, are especially missed. Still, it's a worthwhile set, and a must for fans of Purcell, English Baroque music, or anyone who just wants to experience a taste of the last days of the Restoration stage.

EXPLOSIVE MARK III LIVE CONCERT 1975.......2004-03-19

I bought this album when it first came out in the mid 70s and have always liked it. It is as good as Made in Japan. Blackmore is smoking. Coverdale is so soulful and powerful. Everyone else just lays it on the line. Buy this instead of Burn and Stormbringer. You will not be dissappointed.

For Guillan-era fans. Try it (i swear you will love it).......2003-03-23

I,m not a Coverdale era Fan but this is my favorite Deep Purple Album.(tied with Made in Japan).
Before you start to listen the album, be shure that the volume at your stereo is very loud... Then fly....
Imagine the picture:
some notes emerging from a white Startocaster interrupted after a minute by the words: "rock'n'roll".
That's the only warning from the inminent attack of one of the greatest bands ever.
The delight starts with Burn,a very good version from the first to the last note, the guitar-keyboard solos are spectacular, -even better than the studio version-, the Coverdale-Hughes vocals are better than ever, woow!
Mistreated: in my opinion this is the best version you can find of this song, there are some guitar parts that leave you breathless, the choirs by Hughes give a very dramatic frame to the bluesy Coverdale singing, specialy in the interpolation of "rock me baby", this song makes your day.
"Lady Double Dealer " isn't one of my favorites, but here really rocks.
"You Fool No-One" -(This song never got my attention until I heard this live version)-.
Starts with a solo by Lord followed after by the great drums from Ian Pace -right throught your brain-, and then completed by the Richie Blackmore's frenzyness and the heavy chunky bass lines by Hughes. (this guys really know how to play rock'n'roll!!!!)
The record ends with Stormbringer , -excellent version too.-
The only complain of this album is that is too short, about 45min. and it's very hard to find, it took me too much time to get an used one.
