Deep Purple
SJK Metal Collection Live Performance of Burn by Deep Purple at Nummirock
In June 2016, Deep Purple rocked the stage at Nummirock with a performance of 'Burn,' a classic from their 1974 album of the same name. By this point in their career, Deep Purple had been through numerous lineup changes and stylistic evolutions, making them a cornerstone of hard rock and heavy metal. They had released their thirteenth studio album, 'inFinite,' just months earlier in April 2017, showcasing their persistent creativity. The performance in Helsinki was part of their 'The Long Goodbye' tour, signaling a fitting capstone to a remarkable journey that began in the late 1960s. It's fascinating to note that 'Burn' was one of the first tracks featuring vocalist David Coverdale and bassist Glenn Hughes, solidifying their legendary status in rock's pantheon. Attending this concert was a chance to witness a band that has truly stood the test of time, blending nostalgia with electric energy.
