"Actually I would love to give this CD 4.5 stars for the music alone but I can't get past the fact that in between each song the radio show announcer makes a comment about what was just played as well as introducing the next tune. This occurs on both the first and second CD. I would unreservedly give this CD 4.5 stars if there was only music on this CD. The only reason I wouldn't give the music 5 stars is because, as the band is improvising during the set, it seems that at times they are trying to find the sweet spot without actually lolling around in it. But for the most part they ARE in the stratosphere. I owned the original LP release that had no commentary in between the songs. They should have kept it that way as the announcers comments are insipid and detract from the music. He even chastizes Ian Gillan for introducing one of their own songs, reminding Ian that he is not the shows host. That just ain't Rock N' Roll my Babies."

"Deep purple In concert 70/72 is a very great live album from the MK2 deep purple. It shows the peek of their greatness in concert. IN my opinion 1970 was my favorite time for deep purple so this cd defiently shows one of their great performances on disk. In this cd it shows how great they really were. I would recommend this cd."
