Deep Purple

In June 1996, Deep Purple was on their 'Purpendicular' world tour, promoting their album 'Purpendicular,' which had been released just a few months earlier in February. This marked a significant moment in their career as it was the first album to feature guitarist Steve Morse, who brought a fresh energy to the band. The concert at Dynamo Stadium in Moscow showcased not only their new material but also the band’s ability to blend classic rock elements with a contemporary flair. Interestingly, this was an important era for Deep Purple, as it solidified their comeback after a hiatus and showed their resilience in the ever-evolving rock landscape. The live performance in Moscow is particularly memorable, as it captures the band’s dynamic stage presence, offering a glimpse into how they connected with fans during this pivotal phase.
