DP sets Montreux on fire!

"This recording gives us the opportunity to hear Deep Purple Mark II at the beginning of its existence.
While Speed King (here Kneel and Pray) is still at an embryonic state, Child in Time already sounds like a magnificient anthem.
Mandrake Root , Hush and Wring That Neck are bombastic, heavy and screaming Hard Rock...In Rock all over.
Not to mention,that it features the only recording available of Kentucky Woman with Gillan and Glover.
This set is a delight for those who love solo's.
Now, keep in mind that this is an official bootleg.The recording is loud, sometimes distorted, but every musician can be heard ( on the contrary of many bootlegs).If you know you won't get a soundboard quality recording and expect nothing but the best from a dP that has everything to prove but nothing to lose, then this one is for you.
Check out the other releases on Sonic Zoom-all dP live recordings previously unreleased...Fantastic!"
