Venue: Revention Music Center Location: Houston, Texas, United States Date: September 23, 2019

On September 23, 2019, Deep Purple played at the Revention Music Center in Houston, Texas, as part of their Long Goodbye Tour. Just before this live recording, the band released their album 'inFinite' in 2017, which marked a revival of sorts for the group, showcasing their hybrid of hard rock and progressive elements. Interestingly, 'Smoke on the Water,' one of their most iconic tracks, remains a staple of their live performances, symbolizing the band's enduring legacy in rock music. The 2019 performance also captured the essence of their seasoned musicianship and the chemistry they’ve developed over decades, making it a nostalgic experience for fans. This tour aimed to celebrate their rich history while also acknowledging that they might be stepping back from the live scene, giving it an emotional weight that resonates with both long-time followers and new listeners alike.
