« DTB Calendar 2011BBC Sessions
By simon robinson
As trailed on the front page, this project seems to have cleared one of the last hurdles and we’re starting to put thinking caps on. Two more transcription discs have turned up recently, both with previously lost numbers from early Deep Purple sessions on, none of which have ever been bootlegged. It brings us down to just one session still lost, plus a couple of tracks still missing from another. So we can’t call it ‘the complete’ yet, but it’s not far off. Thoughts of perhaps making a nice presentation set with the sessions and the two In Concerts have been mooted, or just the sessions as a stand-alone release. I shall start digging out the research and at some stage once we’ve done timings may well request input from other collectors as we know there are different edits around of some numbers. Anyhow, one to look forward to in 2011.

Needless to say I’ve had a bit of fun doing a cover idea (a project is not a project for me until there is something visual to refer to) and will post this shortly.

UPDATE • Batting this idea around with people here has been very useful, and as a result the final idea is for two CDs. CD1 will be the BBC Sessions. CD2 will be a revised version of the BBC In Concerts, packaged to match the new release. So fans can just get the sessions and not be forced to buy extra discs for material they already have (although the 1970 and 1972 sets may get a light-touch sonic upgrade).

UPDATE 2 • EMI have managed to sort out a deal with the owner of two of the unissued sessions. It is likely that there will be a Various Artists BBC Sessions set which will include one or two of the Deep Purple tracks, and this may reach the shops before the full DP set. So unless you really cannot wait, our advice is to hang on for the full CD (though the V/A set may be interesting for other bands). As for the In Concerts, Abbey Road are going to do a test remaster on a couple of tracks for evaluation.

ganzo!
anche se non mi ricordo il brano Kneel And Pray...

riusciranno mai a mettere ordine su queste bbc session?

Sarà che non sono una "bootleghista" ma anche io sbavo quanto l'avvocato e la giovane tempestosa...yuk yuk....

HERE WE ARE!!!!

I BBC Live si trovano da anni nei bootlegs, ma volevo porre un quesito:
si può amare i deep senza amare i bootlegs?
A parte che sono il gruppo con il maggior numero di bootlegs di tutti ma le performance migliori si trovano proprio li. Ricordiamoci che Blackmore non faceva mai un concerto uguale all'altro e inoltre si trovano dei bootlegs di qualità eccellente, come alcuni soundboard degli anni 80.

Dovresti cominciare a cercarne, ce ne sono tantissimi veramente di qualità ( soundboard ) in cui si può godere dello spirito Purple...fantastici!!

Eeeeh....ma non ho dubbi...

tra i vari bootleg mi è sempre piaciuto il live in argentina del 2005, quello commentato in radio...qualcosa dell'estate '98 in soundboard si trova?
