Deep Purple – Highway Star [live, Denmark - European Tour, March 1972, pre-Machine Head]
Original lineup. Now how many times can you hear Ian Gillan say about Highway Star: “this is off our new album”?
This video was taken from the European tour which happened a few months before the Japanese tour. Filmed in Copenhagen, Denmark in March 1972. Ian wanted to quit the band in August just before the Japan tour started, but was persuaded to stay for that tour and the US tour the next year.
