Deep Purple - Final Truckin. (No Label)
Recorded Live at Festival Hall, Osaka, Japan - June 29, 1973.

Great sounding version of the end of an era. This is the complete show from the evening, it even includes Gillan's farewell words to the audience. A moving moment for us that read about it in NME the week after. Good quality audience tape - may be the same as "Gillan/Glover's Last Stand," but the lack of surface noise makes up for it, and there has been some obvious cleanup to the sound, making it one the few really essential Purple bootlegs to own.
Personnel: MKII: Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, Roger Glover, Jon Lord, Ian Paice.
