Made In Japan' quite simply is certainly one of the great live albums. It explodes from the speakers with 'Highway Star' and Ritchie Blackmore's guitar solo based on Bach is a classic! The ultimate driving song. 'Child In Time' is one of the most stupendous songs Deep Purple wrote. Ian Gillan's vocal performance is stunning as is the guitar solo! Jon Lord's gentle opening organ chords leading to a climatic finish! The No.1 riff ever 'Smoke On The Water' and one of the best versions Purple did of this song. With that fantastic classic guitar solo! And the lyrics about the Montreux casino burning down. 'The Mule' has intresting lyrics, Gillan truely is one of the all time best lyric writers not just singers. The drum solo by Ian Paice is brilliant!

The disc is great. I've got the album on vinyl but nothing to play it on so it was fantastic to be able to these classic live tracks again. I must admit I was slightly disappointed that the case was damaged but I had a spare one so I just swapped the disc into that one.

Just a masterpiece and raw, in your face album that truly shows Deep Purple at their best. One I would put in my top ten live rock albums. Get it and turn the volume right up. Enjoy a true blast from the past in British rock history.

First heard Deep purple as a 15 year old, and haven't had a copy of this for years but loved it back then....But while things have moved on somewhat I still enjoy an occasional listen. The Mule the highlight for me!
