Deep Purple's 'Made In Japan' Getting 40th Anniversary Reissue (A Top Story)
. "Deep Purple was at the height of its powers," said keyboardist Jon Lord. "That double album was the epitome of what we stood for in those days. It wasn't meant to be released outside of Japan. The Japanese said, 'Will you please make a live album?' "We said, 'We don't make live albums; we don't believe in them.' We finally said okay, but said we wanted the rights to the tapes because we didn't want the album to be released outside of Japan. "That album only cost about $3,000 to make. It sounded pretty good, so we said to Warner Bros., 'Do you want this?' They said, 'No, live albums don't happen.' They wound up putting it out anyway and it went platinum in about two weeks." - more on this story hennemusic is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
