Deep Purple

In February 1991, Deep Purple was in the midst of their 'Slaves and Masters' World Tour, which saw the band releasing their album 'Slaves and Masters' the previous year. This marked a significant point in their career, as it was a return to the spotlight after a period of lineup changes and relative obscurity in the 1980s. The album featured Joe Lynn Turner on vocals, signaling a little backlash from purists who preferred the classic lineup, but it was well received by fans. The Munich concert at Olympiahalle showcases the band melding classic hits like 'Burn' and 'Black Night' with fresh tracks from 'Slaves and Masters.' It's a fascinating mix of nostalgia and reinvention. The performance encapsulates Deep Purple's resilience and ability to evolve, all while keeping their hard rock roots intact—an essence that resonates strongly even today.
