Deep Purple - Child in Time - Made in Japan (1972)

Inspired by the Cold War, Child in Time is featured on the band’s 1970 album Deep Purple in Rock. A live version later appeared on the 1972 album Made in Japan. The band were well known for their strong stage act, and had privately recorded several shows. The tour was successful, with strong media interest and a positive response from fans. I couldn’t find any video of Child in Time from Japanese tour. So I created a video of this legendary performance from different concerts. The urban legend is that man committed suicide with gun when they were performing Child in Time. You can hear it at 10:02 Gillan said: Never heard about that… it is probably a made up fact like most things… If you know something more, please leave a comment. A Rolling Stone readers’ poll in 2012 ranked Made in Japan the sixth best live album of all time.
