DEEP PURPLE's masterpiece was directly digitized from the original records in the best condition using the highest quality equipment for professional use, making this a must-listen title for fans! Even if you listen to it and compare it with various albums that are currently officially released, the difference is obvious. With its natural texture, luster, and maximum impact, you can enjoy the true charm of the work. This "original analog reprint series" is a miraculous series that was made possible because it was a gift title. This is a must-listen for avid fans who have been listening since the analog era, as well as fans who have never experienced analog! At DEEP PURPLE's first performance in Japan in August 1972, an official live recording was made as everyone knows, and the song "MADE IN JAPAN" was released afterwards (released as "LIVE IN JAPAN" in Japan). became a famous live album that will remain not only in PURPLE's history but also in hard rock history. Like "IN ROCK" and "MACHINE HEAD," this work has been re-released on various remastered and high-quality material discs, and has been enjoyed by fans in various forms, including a 3-disc collector's edition. I did. However, when it comes to classic records from the analog era, many enthusiasts point out the difference in quality between records and the sound sources made since CDs. In particular, there is a big difference in this "MADE IN JAPAN" version, and there is a strong opinion among enthusiasts that "the first edition has a higher cutting level, has a sound groove closer to the label, and has better sound." . In this work, the "best" analog record is played in a professional-class equipment environment and directly digitized! The depth and richness of the tone and natural texture are unique to the first press version. You can enjoy the gem of a sound that will captivate everyone who listens to it! This work is a direct recording of the original 2-LP British version of "MADE IN JAPAN" (Purple Label Gramophone version, Purple TPS 3511/2). This work is also based on the first press edition, which is extremely difficult for ordinary fans to obtain, and the sound is produced in a professional playback environment that is difficult to arrange at an individual level. It seems that the band initially said that they would not release this live album if the performance or sound was bad, and that it would be released only in Japan, but when the band listened to the tape later, they were surprised at how good the album was and eventually decided to release it worldwide. and cemented the band's fame. The splendor of the sound that even the band was surprised by can be easily understood by listening to John's organ intro and the cheers that come out of the speakers the moment the disc is played. The natural texture and clear sound of the performance, the harmonious combination of the atmosphere of the venue and the performance are exquisite. Those who only know the tones since the CD release will wonder, "Is this the original tone!?" The scales will fall from your ears! The second song “Child In Time” is an impressive 12 minutes long. John's organ and Pace's drums, which play a delicate intro in a transparent atmosphere that allows you to see into the depths of the venue, are so wonderful that they even make you sigh as you listen to them. The passionate singing of the young Gillan, who was at his peak as a hard rock singer, and the spectacular solos and interplay between Richie and John are literally like breathing fire. Furthermore, songs such as ``Smoke On The Water,'' ``The Mule'' with drum solo (the drum and cymbal tones here are mind-blowing), and ``Strange Kind Of Woman'' all surprise you with their deep, thick sounds. Masu. The tones that can be heard on this original edition not only surpass the flat image of the early CD edition, but even the ``25th Anniversary Edition'', which seems to be flashy but is actually over-compressed and modulates the sound including the cymbals. It's amazing! "Lazy" and "Space Truckin'", where the Hammond sounds like thunder, are played by John from the intro. He never takes a step back against Richie and the others, and his free-flowing play, sometimes floating, and other times penetrating through the cracks, is nothing short of amazing no matter what song or scene he plays! Since the record is being dropped, there is a needle crackling noise in several places during the song, but the sound makes you wonder, "What happened to that?" If you are a fan, it should be a live performance that you have listened to countless times, but in this work you will listen to the performance as if you have never experienced it (and now that John has passed away, it is also a take with special emotion). This is what "MADE IN JAPAN" and "LIVE IN JAPAN" should be! Also in the "Original Analog Reprint Series", this work is sure to surpass even "IN ROCK" and "MACHINE HEAD", making it a must-listen for all hard rock fans!
