DEEP PURPLE – Made In Japan (Steven Wilson 2025 Remix) *HQ*
DEEP PURPLE 1972’s landmark live album, “Made in Japan” is receiving a newly remixed release, with a Super Deluxe Edition due out on August 15th. This edition feature a new stereo mix of the original recording by Steven Wilson.
The album, originally recorded in 1972, is being celebrated with this release on its 53rd anniversary. Originally intended as a Japan-only release, this double live album became a surprise global phenomenon. Released in the U.K. in December 1972 and in the U.S. the following March, ”Made in Japan” went platinum in America and several European countries.
Singer Ian Gillan, guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, keyboardist Jon Lord, bassist Roger Glover, and drummer Ian Paice—Deep Purple’s famed Mk II lineup—turned studio staples like “Smoke On The Water,” “Highway Star,” and “Space Truckin’” into explosive live statements.
The band enlisted engineer Martin Birch—who had worked on several of their best-known studio albums—to record the shows to eight-track tape at Festival Hall in Osaka and the Budokan in Tokyo.
The performances on ‘Made in Japan’ capture Deep Purple at full throttle, powering through songs from their then-new album Machine Head, along with fan favorites like “Child In Time,” “Strange Kind Of Woman,” and “Speed King.”
