Free Music Notes for Made In Japan: The Remastered Edition
Free Music Review: An amazing sonic experience -- under the circumstances
Hit: 4 Stars
I loved this album back in 1972 and I'm still amazed by it's sonic impact today. Deep Purple's recording engineer Martin Burch was asked to capture some shows from the 1972 Machine Head Tour on tape. During the August 1972 Japanese leg of the tour, he had his chance to record. Burch was supplied with an unimpressive, cheap looking Ampex 8-track recorder to get the job done. Burch was dissapointed with the equipment he was given and was certain that the results would be a total waste of his time.
When the entourage arrived back in England, Burch took the time to throw the eight track recording tapes onto a studio deck and have a listen. COMPLETE AND TOTAL SHOCK !!! The combination of skillful microphone placement, concert hall acoustics and the unexpected superior performance of that little Ampex tape deck had collectively ganged up to capture one of the finest quality live rock recordings of all time.
Free Music Review: extra heavy on everything iz good
Hit: 4 Stars
this is superior to Deep Purple's studio recordings for this
early 1970's era because this is the way that this music
should be enjoyed--loud,deep,and spacey.the live show
allows the skill and precision of top flight musicians playing
at their peak and enjoying every moment to come through
with clarity.Ritchie Blackmore, (SLASH WHO?--you MUST
be kidding) the original black top hat guitar hero, moves his
fingers across the fretboard with machine like precision.Ian
Gillan shows us he may be the top rock vocalist of any era.
the entire band crackles and snaps through a well chosen
showcase of everyone's talent.this one makes you wish you
were actually in the arena for the show(s).an excellent choice for a new fan
or for everyone else.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED--especially
at the bargin price it is selling for at the time of this writing.
Free Music Review: deep purple,s made in japan has to be one of the greatest live albums ever!
Hit: 4 Stars
deep purple,s made in japan was released in 1972 or 1973.deep purple recorded made in japan on their successful asian tour for the machine head album.unfortuneatly the mark 2 line up which made this album and one more studio album after this one would soon fragment, vocalist ian gillan and bassist roger glover left the band near the end of 1973. rumour has it..that ritchie blackmore played a large part in gillan and glover,s leaving the band.one thing about mr.blackmore,s bands was there seemed to be a frequent turnover rate in band personal! however this great album in my opinon is one of the all time greatest hard rock live albums!for me the great cuts are;highway star,smoke on the water,the mule,strange kind of woman,child in time,black night,space truckin and speed king!for any serious deep purple fan,s collection would not be complete without this great cd!!Free Music Review: Great album, ok remastering
Hit: 3 Stars
I won't repeat what others have written - I love the band and have great memories of the LP so I jumped for this import remastered version hoping it would have the same impact and dynamics of the LP. It doesn't. I have a new and really nice audio system and ordered $200 or so of cds, ordering only those version rated highly in the sound quality/remastering category. This one was a disapointment to me. Not very dynamic and a bit shrill. I'll keep my out for the DCC version which I know will sound great but the price is crazy at over $100.Free Music Review: No doubt a great album but the CD!
Hit: 3 Stars
This is one of my all time favorite albums but when I put the record on my turntable and the CD in my CD player and listen to them back to back, the record sounds so much better. It is night and day. On the CD the cymbals aren't there, the depth isn't there, and the recording is overall lifeless. I tried to record from the record to a CD and my CD sounds way better than this so called remastered edition. To me this CD is unlistenable.
