5.0 out of 5 stars Thank Y ou, Lord !!! 1 Nov 2004
Format:DVD
I couldn't help writing a review having seen a half star lacking for this the most wonderful event ...on british amazon ???!!!This is the best way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of one of the most revolutionary and ground-breaking musical opuses in the world history.For some fans of Deep Purple it seemed that the Concerto for group and Orchestra was underrated, undeservingly forgotten, until this fantastic Albert Hall evening came to prove the opposite. The Concerto alone is quite enough to buy this DVD and tremble from excitement for two hours, having no strength to resist the falling tears... because really it is an ageing of the band in the best sence of the word. They aren't the timid beginners that came to shock the world 30 years ago, not sure where to stand or what to look at... Now they are the mature and worthy musicians who have SHOCKED the world by the FORCE of really NEW, CHALLENGING, and CONQUERING MUSIC. It's splendid to see how the members appear one after another and the atmosphere of the Albert Hall is amazing,...The audience knows well its heroes, and has come to give them truely deserved credits.
In comparison to the premiere performance 30 years ago some solos have been changed, not to the better I think, except Morse's solo in the first Movement being much less in duration and more in the vitality then Blackmore's... Also drum solo in the third movement was shortened. In other cases our ears are somewhat accustomed to the old version. Indeed some sound level faults are obvious, the orchestra sometimes sounds weeker than the band, but although the whole performance is more masterfull, well rehearsed, and besides Mr. Lord have done some orchestration corrections.
After the Concerto some other DP classics are performed with the London Symphony Orchestra, my beloved are Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming and Pictures of Home....And a dazzling brass arrangement of Wring That Neck in the beginning...
It's a must have surely,and it's a museum exhibit.

P.S. I think the portuguese play much better football than judge on music.

5.0 out of 5 stars 30 years after, still in shape!! 1 Mar 2001
By A Customer
Format:VHS Tape
They've lost nothing in 30 years. The only diferences are, Blackmore out, Morse in. The sound is superb, and the musicians more mature. I went to the concert and the atmosphere was incredible. The video features some of the guests songs, like wait a while (Sam Brown), sitting in a dream and love is all (Dio) and pictured within. Then you can watch a jazz version of Wring that neck; the concerto itself separated in 3 movements; ted the mechanic, watching the sky, sometimes i feel like screaming, pictures of home and the final "super-bomb" smoke on the water with everybody singing along. This is, therefore, a valuable album for fans and music lovers. Enjoy it.....

5.0 out of 5 stars "Concerto for Group and Orchestra" and Perfection 13 April 2002
By "vangg"
Format:DVD
First of all I have to say that I am not a very big Deep Purple fan. I like them but I own 1 or 2 CDs. This DVD video appart from the other beautiful songs contains one of the masterpieces of (rock) music: "Concerto for Group and Orchestra". This unique piece is performed here for the first time after 30 years in a brilliant way. Don't miss the chance to enjoy this marvelous 50 min. masterpiece. Perhaps you might want to hear to the other (very good indeed) songs too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deep Purple in Concert with the royal Philharmonic
Deep Purple were my favourite band as a teenager and I still have the original on vinyl. Whilst this is is the 1999 re-run it is still just as enjoyable as the original

Having owned the original LP I expected a superior performance rather than a rerun of the same old material. Enjoyable yet a little disapointed, sorry.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed..Save your money if you like the "older" Purple.
First of all, playing time,only 120 min.(Edition with CD,probably 366 min.????).

Disappointed because I miss the more "goodies" from the 70's and 80's,.. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars a bit short
Sadly this mised out the two Ian Gillan tracks and the Steve Morse track which were on the CD. I don't know why, there wasn't much in the way of extras. Read more
