A famous recording from the "WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE!" era is now available. This work includes “January 21, 1973 Munich Performance”. This is a definitive edition that revives previously released masterpieces with the latest and meticulous remastering. ``1973'' is also a turning point in history, where the collapse of the second period and the birth of the third period occurred all at once. This work is of course the second season, but first let's take a look at the progress towards the end of the glorious second season. [“Purple Portrait” released on January 13th]・January 16th – March 20th: European tour (36 performances) ←★Coco★・April 12th – June 19th: North American tour (42 performances)・June 23rd-29th: Japan tour (6 performances)《2nd period DEEP PURPLE collapse》 I have summarized it quite quickly, but this is the entire story from the release of “WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE!” to the 2nd period collapse . The Munich performance of this work is the pattern of the German tour, which is the beginning of the tour immediately after the release. There are also masterpieces such as “BERLIN 1973” and “MUNSTER MASTER” from this German two, so let’s check the positional relationship on the schedule. ・January 16th Berlin (first day of tour) “BERLIN 1973” ・January 17th Hamburg ・January 19th Nuremberg ・January 20th Frankfurt ・January 21st Munich [This work] ・January 23rd Munster “ MUNSTER MASTER'' ・January 24th Essen ・January 26th Offenburg ・January 27th Cologne This is an overview of the 9 performances scheduled in Germany. This shows how popular it was in Germany, second only to the United States and its home country of England. This work is the fifth performance of the series. The sound of this work is a wonderful audience sound. “BERLIN 1973” and “MUNSTER MASTER” were also famous recordings representing 1973, but this work is no less. The venue, Olympiahalle, is an indoor stadium built for the Munich Olympics the previous year, and its atmosphere is extremely clear. When it gets quiet between songs, you can clearly hear someone's distant voice shouting "Richie!" and even the whistle. The musical tones that cut through the clear air are the main character, and the guitar and organ played before the song can be heard delicately, and each person's phrases stand out even when the entire group is at full volume. It was very popular at the time of the POWER GATE edition, but this time we have implemented the latest remaster to that famous recording. Although the overall balance was well-balanced and it was a great recording that didn't require any modification, we made some fine adjustments to make the musical sound even clearer and more vivid. Of course, the result is a finish that takes full advantage of the master's original beautiful "ringing" without any uncouth twisting of the musical sound. The “end of the second period” depicted with such clarity is also very tasteful. Of course, it doesn't reach the same divine tension as "Golden 1972," but if you listen to each person individually, you'll hear some delicious phrases! While playing, he played carefully. Because it's not an explosive tension that makes you forget yourself, the songs are good and the talent of each person is brought out in a fun way. Richie's guitar tone is clear throughout the entire album, and "Mary Long", which is exclusive to this tour, is also delicious. Furthermore, in the development after "Lazy" which continues from the keyboard solo, Jon Lord also shows off a number of sparkling improvised phrases. And the sound of this work is so wonderful that you can feel it to the touch. This is the final installment of the "1973 German Trilogy", following "BERLIN 1973" and "MUNSTER MASTER". This is the “beginning of the end” of DEEP PURPLE, the second period that shines brightly in rock history. A masterpiece recording that conveys the truth of 1973 100%.
