5.0 out of 5 stars
EXCELLENT!,
By Top Cat (Up, Down, All Around) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live in Paris (Audio CD)
Sorry... but that review below is way off the mark...
This set is DIFFERENT from "Mark III: The Final Concerts"... "Mark III: The Final Concerts" was a mid-90s COMPILATION with tracks from TWO DIFFERENT SHOWS (Paris and Graz), with some EDITED tracks, and REPEAT performances... "Live In Paris" does just what it says on the tin: It's the Paris 1975 show COMPLETE and UNEDITED... plus, it has been REMIXED from the master tapes and THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERIOR to "Mark III: The Final Concerts", which was tinny and without depth, as opposed to this new set that sounds full and rich... The below reviewer may be a collector, but he doesn't know his stuff... This set is new and BETTER in all respects... Hughes/Coverdale era Purple fans won't be disappointed.

Swan Song,
By Lambchops "Lambchops" (Toronto) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live in Paris (Audio CD)
This is to me, the finest example of Deep Purple live...well, actually its a toss up between this one and Live In London. Ritchie's last show with the band in the 1970's is flawless and so full of energy. He certainly knew the meaning of the expression of "going out with a bang". Great job. My personal fave here is The Gypsy. Hard to beleive that this awesome version remained in the vaults all this time. Forget about Made In Japan...as i never truly understood the fascination with that LP except it contains more recognisable tunes.
The only thing i don't like is about this CD is Glenn Hughes coke induced screams that make Mistreated all but unlistenable.

Blackmore is communicating with aliens in places on this set!,
By herb "nice name huh?" (somewhere hopefully) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live in Paris (Audio CD)
For those of you who are astute Blackmore fans ...Ritchie is "totally on" during this performance! At 5:46 during Burn Blackmore breaks his usual pattern and stabs this incredible high note out of the blue..Very indicative of taking chances, and THAT is when he is at his best! Lots of controlled feedback revealed under headphones as well. This guy is just incredible when he is inspired! This is by far THE definitive live release by this line up. GREAT sound too! It is the Made In Japan of the MKIII era. It's a tad disappointing that Ritchie doesn't stretch out longer on the "Gypsy" when we would expect him to, but he is otherwise great here. The whole band cooks! I am going to say something that could offend some..The rhythm section presented here with Glenn Hughes is far more dynamic live than it ever was with Glover. Hughes is just a more dynamic player and presence. Even if you have the other multi-disc set called "The Final Concerts" you need have this show! If you are wondering about this release..wonder no more. It is a must!
