Deep Purple

On August 17, 1991, Deep Purple graced the stage at São Paulo's Ginásio do Ibirapuera during their 'The Battle Rages On...' tour. This live recording captures a pivotal moment in the band's history, right after they released the album 'The Battle Rages On' in the same year. With this album, Deep Purple marked a significant reunion of the classic lineup, with Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, Roger Glover, Jon Lord, and Ian Paice coming together again after years apart. Interestingly, during this era, tensions were high within the band, particularly between Gillan and Blackmore, leading to an electrifying but sometimes turbulent stage presence. The concert serves as a thrilling slice of rock history, showcasing the energy and passion that defined Deep Purple's legacy during their powerful comeback.
