The main attraction to some might be the Copenhagen Black & White footage of a show they did several weeks or months BEFORE Machine Head was released......An entire concert as it was televised.
In Denmark, the TV stations always keep and/or archive the stuff they film.
This has been in circulation on the bootleg video market for many years. I have had it on VHS for 10. And it is Stereo OR 5.1 Surround Sound.
But secondly is their performance from 1973 on the late-night TV show "In Concert".
MY FUKKING GOD!!!
First time it has been released. They did not include the full set, as American film crews would not save any footage not to be broadcast. So the broadcast is all that is left.
But WHAT A FUKKING PERFORMANCE!
You want to see some FUCKING INTENSITY?????
:eek:
Ian Gillan in his prime.
Ritchie Blackmore...young mean and LOUD.
Roger Glover playing like he be on fire, muffukkah....
And Ian Paice be skinsman Il Supremo....
Jon Lord turns in a keyboard solo that has to be seen to be believed.
The audience in the theater where they were filming this was going absolutely apeshit at the end of the show......well, all through the show, but even moreso at the end...
It was as far a leap in intensity as Led Zep's "Song Remains The Same" is to "How The West Was Won".
Fucking astonishing.
It is also the only known video performance (it says somewhere in the included booklet) of the Mk II lineup performing "Smoke On The Water".
Some of the stuff I have written in the above review is severely understated.
Please keep the volume on your television turned down to 2, or it may cause the TV Speakers to emit danerous radiation which can make your BRAIN MELT!!!!
A bonus track: from 1974 The California Jam performance of "Burn".
Which by the way will be on the full-length California Jam DVD due out sometime soon I believe.
Cheers muffukkaz.....
:cool:
