This is the first Deep Purple show released on an official full length CD with the MK 1 line up featuring Rod Evans and Nick Simper.
The concert was recorded in 1968 when they opened up for Cream on their Farewell Tour.
Sound quality isn't great because of the age of the recording but this is a must have for Deep Purple fans!
"Hush" (Joe South) - 4:44
"Kentucky Woman" (Neil Diamond) - 5:01
"Mandrake Root" (Rod Evans, Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord) - 10:10
"Help!" (John Lennon, Paul McCartney) - 6:19
"Wring That Neck" (Blackmore, Nick Simper, Lord, Ian Paice) - 6:40
"River Deep, Mountain High" (Phil Spector, Jeff Barry, Ellie Greenwich) - 9:44
"Hey Joe" (Billy Roberts) - 7:57

2009 archive live release from the British rockers' Mk 1 line-up. So little evidence of this line-up's live act remains that this tape, the only surviving recording of the first incarnation of Deep Purple on stage, is of great interest, with the band exhibiting a brash confidence in front of 16,000 Cream fans. As a support act, Deep Purple's set was a little shorter than normal but despite the passing of over 40 years, it's still an exciting experience. The sound,taken from an original Sony open reel, isn't bad at all once you get used to the ambience, with just a little distortion in the second number and someone in the audience heard near the microphone at one or two quiet moments. It was first released officially several years ago by Sonic Zoom but has been long out of print. Due to many requests it has now been added to the immensely popular Official Archive Collection, with a new cover, and a 12 page booklet. Purple.
