Deep Purple Copenhagen 1972 LP Vinyl

Limited triple vinyl LP pressing. Live archive release from the British Hard Rock legends. Imagine a world without MACHINE HEAD. Imagine a Deep Purple set-list without 'Smoke on the Water'. Imagine a time when the music business had yet to become a vast multi-national conglomerate. This was the primordial landscape on March 1st, 1972 when Deep Purple took to the stage at the Kobenhavns Boldklub (KB) Hallen in Copenhagen. It was a time of no boundaries or restrictions, no blueprints or formulas. Rock music wasn't exactly in it's infancy, but there were still plenty of new territories to explore, mountains to climb, peaks to conquer. It was a time when anything was possible. And Purple were on a mission to prove it. Everything about this recording is spontaneous and un-choreographed, loose and lethal, teetering and tempestuous. An explosive combination of brinkmanship and barely controlled chaos. Which, in a lip-synched and auto-tuned modern-day music world, comes as a breath of fresh air.
