Legendary live album recorded during Deep Purple's three performances in Japan in August 1972. This is an undisputed classic of live hard rock, where the band, at the height of their powers, demonstrate the full force of their ‘golden line-up’ — Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord, Roger Glover and Ian Paice.
The release includes explosive versions of Highway Star, Smoke on the Water, Strange Kind of Woman and the monumental Space Truckin', which stretches over 20 minutes of improvisational magic.
