3pm - Deep Purple - Made In Japan (EMI)

British hard rockers Deep Purple recorded these performances on a 1972 tour of Japan soon after recording their 5th studio album "Machine Head".

The lineup from this period is regarded as the 'classic' of the many different formations as band members came and went and rejoined. Features Ian Gillan on vocals, Richie Blackmore on guitar, Roger Glover bass, Jon Lord keyboards and Ian Paice on drums.

At the time, they had the dubious honour of being in the Guinness Book of Records as the loudest rock band in the world.

'Matinee Idle is Radio New Zealand's Mufti Day. They let me and Simon "loose in the asylum". We get to be the guys testing the outer limits of listener patience and we benignly abuse this privilege.' says O'Brien. 'They let us play whatever we want! It's every radio presenter's dream.'
