DEEP PURPLE, who hadn’t released a studio work for eight years after “RAPTURE OF THE DEEP”, was crazy about the tour. Introducing a superb shock image that allows you to witness them in such an era with the highest quality.
“December 4, 2012 Amsterdam performance” is included in this work. This is a super-superior audience shot taken in the first act of “THE SONGS THAT BUILT ROCK Tour”, which has nothing to do with the album. Since I didn’t come to Japan on this tour, I have the impression that it was a blank era in Japan, but in the meantime, I also performed with an orchestra. Official works such as “LIVE AT MONTREUX 2011” and “LIVE IN VERONA” were also left. It’s also a good opportunity, so let’s first unravel the big picture of the world tour and confirm the position of the show.
● 2011
* June 3-25: North America # 1 (16 performances)
* July 8-29: Europe # 1 (10 performances) ← * Official work
・ October 4-28: South America (16 performances)
* November 26th-December 15th: Europe # 2 (12 performances)
● 2012
・ February 2-26: North America # 2 (17 performances)
・ October 24-December 10: Europe # 3 (28 performances) ← ★ Coco ★
* Note: “*” indicates an orchestra tour, and “・” indicates a regular schedule.
This is the whole picture of “THE SONGS THAT BUILT ROCK Tour”. Mini tours were held in Mexico and Eastern Europe in the first half of 2011 (a total of about 18 performances), but the tour title changed and it started in earnest in June. The two official works mentioned above were the “Europe # 1” shows that co-starred with the orchestra, but this work is much later. It was the 24th performance of the band’s final leg “Europe # 3”.
This work shot at such a show is a strange superb image that makes you want to line up endlessly with “super super …”. I can’t help but write “audience shot” as the type, but the quality that would have been imagined in that word is wrong. At this time, ignore the facts once and imagine the “related person shot”, “one turtle pro shot”, and “official video before editing” in your brain. Okay. That is the quality of this work.
I left it to my imagination too much, so to put it in words, I don’t know the shooting position. A screen capture is also posted on the right, but as you can see, it is no different from the pro shot up, and there is no angle or distance (even Ian Paice in the back of the stage has a face up!) .. Moreover, it continues all the time. Sometimes I can see the arms in the front row (or next door?), So it looks like an audience seat, but it’s a close-knit angle that says, “Isn’t this really a staff shoot !?” Furthermore, the sound is super direct as much as the scene. It feels more like an audience than a scene, but it’s just the tone and the vividness of the cheers.
The show drawn with such transcendental quality is also wonderful. As I did the day before, the official video of this tour will be co-starring with the orchestra, so let’s organize it by comparing it with the band performance “FROM THE SETTING SUN … (IN WACKEN)”.
● Classics (12 songs)
・ In Rock: Into the Fire / Hard Lovin’Man
・ Fireball: Fireball (★) / Strange Kind of Woman / The Mule (★) / No One Came
-Machine Head: Maybe I’m a Leo (★) / Lazy / Space Truckin’/ Smoke on the Water
・ Others: Hush / Black Night
● After reunion (5 songs)
・ Ritchie era: The Battle Rages On (★) / Perfect Strangers
・ Mose Era: Contact Lost / Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming (★) / The Well-Dressed Guitar
* Note: The “★” mark is a song that cannot be seen in the official work “FROM THE SETTING SUN … (IN WACKEN)”.
… And it looks like this. While the familiar masterpieces are lined up in a row, “FIREBALL” is featured as much as “MACHINE HEAD”. The start with “Fireball” instead of “Highway Star” is also fresh, and the jam feeling of the following “Into the Fire” and “Hard Lovin’Man” is wrapped in the heat as if it was warped to the second half of the show at once. Even though there is no masterpiece to listen to for the first time, it makes me feel very fresh just by the balance and the delicacy of the line, and there is no sense of discomfort. It is also a show that once again surprises the craftsmanship of a large veteran who has lived on stage.
Anyway, it is a shocking image that scrapes the scales from the eyes, thrusts the hand from the mouth and pulls out the liver. It’s been a while since I was surprised by the quality alone and the heart rate exploded. A miracle audience shot. Please take a look and experience it!
★ A superb audience shot of “December 4, 2012 Amsterdam performance”. The angles shot near the front are a series of super zooms (even Ian Paice in the back of the stage raises his face!), Rather than an audience, “related person shots”, “one turtle pro shots”, and “before editing”. The person who said “Official video of” will come nicely. In addition, the sound is super direct as much as the scene. It is a shocking video work that the heart rate explodes only with quality.
