Official Bootleg Volume One

Description

Seven CD live archive release by the acclaimed rock vocalist. He's been hailed "The Voice Of Rock", and for good reason, as this 7 CD live box set ably testifies. When Glenn's 1994 tour hit Japan, always a stronghold of Glenn fans, he was promoting the From Now On... album. Originally released as Burning Japan Live" the show features 'The Liar', 'Lay My Body Down' and the title track from the new "From Now On... " album, among an incendiary set that touches on some of the cream of Glenn's back catalog. In a similar collection to the Japanese show on Disc One, the appreciative Danish crowd on Disc Two are treated to a great set with guitarist Eric Anders Bojstedt and keyboard player Mic Michaeli, in a band that also featured Thomas Larsson on guitar, Ian Haugland on drums and John Levén on bass. Disc THree kicks off with four lively Deep Purple classics captured at the Gran Rex Theatre in Buenos Aires, Argentina in December 2003. The acoustic set from Sydney, Australia in June 2006 that completes Disc Three sees Glenn delve back to his debut solo platter, Play Me Out. Discs Four and Five kick off with Purple barnstormer 'Stormbringer' from a show at Circo Voador, Rio de Janeiro in Brazil on October 28, 2007. A show from the Belgian venue Spirit of 66 in Verviers on October 16, 2010 is spread across Discs Six and Seven. The show kicks off with Hughes-Thrall's 'Muscle And Blood' followed by Trapeze's 'Touch My Life' and 'Medusa', the latter covered in 2010 by Black Country Communion. In a band featuring Anders Olinder on keyboards, Søren Anderson on guitar and Pontus Engborg on drums, no Glenn show would be complete without revisiting Deep Purple, represented here with 'Sail Away' originally from 1974's Burn.
