Deep Purple

In March 1995, Deep Purple was riding the wave of renewed creativity fueled by the addition of guitarist Steve Morse, who joined the band in 1994. The live recording of "When A Blind Man Cries" at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena in Seoul showcases a pivotal moment in their career during the 'Morse Era.' This period followed the 1993 album 'The Battle Rages On,' marking a shift as the band found fresh energy and musical direction. Interestingly, the concert in Seoul represented the continuation of their exploration in a new landscape, both musically and geographically, following two performances in the USA. This special night included dynamic flair, showcasing how Deep Purple adeptly melded their classic sound with Morse's innovative guitar work, proving that even decades into their career, they were still capable of captivating performances.
