      From what I understand they weren’t into drugs. Just alcohol which is in and of itself a drug. Only Glover liked to smoke weed. Gillan said in an interview that he didn’t smoke his first joint until he was 38.

      The " Come Taste the Band" album with 🎸 Guitarist Tommy Bolin replaced Blackmore for their last of the 70's ?
      If not check " Dealer" .

They were my early heroes.

    The video is from a different show in Copenhagen also from 1972. It was released on DVD. Also, regarding the "I'm a highway star" vocal part, the higher part IS the harmony while the lower part is the main melody. That's why Ian stayed with the lower part.

      I wonder if you're familiar w DP's '60s work? Specifically, 'THE BOOK OF TALIESYN'... similar sound sonically, but completely different vibe. It was, loosely, a concept album, based on the legend of King Arthur- according to some legends, Taliesyn was a Welsh wizard/mystic & advisor to the king. Most of the songs contain references to the kingdom, & there's an overlay of mysticism! I recommend 'Listen, Learn, Read On' to start! (BTW, the album is very 'weed-friendly'- LOL!)

Side note: Did you know Ian, who never smoked, has lung cancer & his doctor says it's from performing surrounded by smoke machines onstage for all those years. He hated the smoke but promoters, managers etc insisted it looked "cool" so Ian gave in. Apparently he's not exactly dying of the cancer but what a thing to live with, huh?

    There is no video from the Made in Japan album so they synced the music to the video from when they played in Denmark. The audio from the M. I. J. is the best! Check out "Strange Kind of Woman" next, as you have not done that song yet, and is has a part where the vocals and guitar do a duel!

    This album was recorded over 3 nights in Japan - no overdubs - the album is reckoned to be one of the best live albums of all time. This was the show opener- as a singer myself you try not to overstrain at the start of a concert - you need to warm up the vocal cords - later in the show Gillan hits the highs. As Gillan states Purple were (and still are) an instrumental band with added vocals.

    Like the fact you chose to play the live video, it really adds to the experience. Getting to watch Ritchie, Jon, Roger and the two Ian's do their thing is so much fun. And, of course, "Highway Star" is one of Deep Purple's BEST songs, so much energy. Mark II DP rules!

    Gillan was actually sick during the recording of the Japan concerts. Still you would not notice it theoughout the concert and in fact he always sang the highway star this way after it was released. He would definitely be able to sing it higher if he chose so…

    "Made in Japan" is one of the greatest rock live albums. Also great are in my opinion "Rainbow" - "Rainbow On Stage", "Thin Lizzy" - "Live & Dangerous", "Led Zeppelin" - "The Song Remains The Same", "UFO" - "Strangers In The Night",.... Enjoy!

    I have a Japanese pressing of this LP but it is titled "Live In Japan" for obvious reasons.....as the LP is literally made in Japan.😄 Stunning sound quality!
    Andy's right about the footage....there's too many Westerners (Americans or English?) in the audience for a concert in Japan!😉

    That right there? That’s as good as it gets. 🔥🔥🔥🔥 The fact that that Gillan didn’t hit all the shriek notes is whatever. They were rocking hard AF, and for me that’s what counts. Also, if you dig Deep Purple, you ought to hear Big Elf. Songs like Neuropsychopathic Eye, and Death Walks Behind You really deliver the goods.
