JOE'S MEMORIES:
This show was Boston's "Made In Japan" concert . That album was in every heavy Rock fan's collection and there were so many people that I knew who wanted to see them,
we ended up buying 14 tickets and having one of the Loge sections of the Boston Music Hall pretty much all to ourselves. The band had released their album "Who Do We Think We Are?"
in January, but for this show, it was like it didn't even exist. The single, "Woman From Tokyo", was a big hit, being played regularly on all the area FM stations and members
of the audience kept calling out for it. but the band wasn't going to play it and the set was all songs from "Made In Japan".  Even without doing any new material,
Deep Purple put on an excellent show. There were no introductions. The lights went down and the familiar opening chords of "Highway Star" began. After that,
Ritchie Blackmore began playing the familiar intro to "Smoke On The Water", they followed that with "Strange Kind Of Woman". Jon Lord then got to do some excellent
keyboard work on a ten minute version of "Child In Time", that also features Ian Gillan's superb vocal range. An eighteen minute version of "Lazy" followed,
with an ear piercing Jon Lord organ intro. This song gave each member of the band to show their individual talents. Ritchie Blackmore, doing some great guitar soloing,
Roger Glover, on Bass, Ian Paice on Drums and Ian Gillan, adding some harmonica to the performance. The set closed with a twenty-five minute "Space Truckin'",
that had the band playing on a dark stage, surrounded by flashing strobe lights, with Ritchie taking off his Stratocaster and throwing it straight up, over his head,
about three times and making the audience anticipate a guitar smashing ritual, but catching it at the last second, instead.
They left the stage and, after a few minutes of a standing, clapping ovation, returned to do a high energy, Deep Purple interpretation of the Little Richard classic, "Lucille".  
That was a great ending to a great show and it turned out to be one of my best concert recordings. At time, you'd swear that it really was the "Made In Japan" album.
Sit back and isten for yourself. Turn it Up!

Many Many Thanks To Joe
