Deep Purple
Deep Purple Mark 4 Live Performance at Capital Centre, Maryland
Venue: Capital Centre
Location: Landover, MD, USA
Date: November 30, 1975
In 1975, Deep Purple was navigating a transformative phase, marked by the release of their album "Come Taste the Band" just months prior in October. This album introduced a new lineup featuring Tommy Bolin, whose guitar work brought a fresh yet different sound to the band. Concerts during this era, like the one at the Capital Centre in Landover, were significant as they showcased Deep Purple at a crossroads—melding their hard rock roots with new elements influenced by Bolin’s style. Interestingly, this performance recorded on November 30, 1975, also signifies the last tour before the band took a hiatus, making it a memorable moment for fans who cherish this elusive era in Deep Purple's rich tapestry of rock history.
