2013 two CD live archive release from the British Rock legends. Through Deep Purple's career, many consider the classic "Mk2" line-up of guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, vocalist Ian Gillan, bassist Roger Glover, keyboard player Jon Lord and drummer Ian Paice, to be the near definitive version. This line-up originally trod the boards from 1969 until 1973, before reconvening from 1984 until 1989, and then again for one last hurrah together in 1993, with the release of their prophetically titled the Battle Rages On. This live album captures that 25th Anniversary tour. Despite the fractious nature of the band, particularly between Blackmore and Gillan, many consider the shows performed by the band on this tour to some of their greatest, and this gig on the 16th October show at the Schleyerhalle in Stuttgart, Germany to be amongst the best. This 20th Anniversary edition now features a 4,000 word essay detailing the events, and drama, that unfolded during the 1993 tour. Cherry Red.
