Thanks to Tangmo from Perfect Purple for the rip!
I converted the wav-files into flac and rearranged tracks a bit in a more convenient pack (renaming, moving into CD1-2 folders).

Great performance. It's hard to judge and compare the shows with Joe because he does not depend on his mood, how he woke up, how much did he drink before etc-etc and delivers the best performance he can every day. Despite being a huge Ritchie Blackmore fan it's impossible to deny the fact that Satch did his best to combine the famous Ritchie's licks, some tunes from usual live performances and put some of his own touch on all these songs. Apart from this Joe had only a couple of weeks to perform the songs in a way the band played in 1993 with Ritchie. I mean all these extended solos, medleys etc etc. More to say even the band said they sent current by that time live tapes to Joe to prepare him. So Deep Purple got the best possible result and even introduced some old songs Ritchie refused to play like Maybe I'm A Leo, Pictures Of Home and When A Blind Man Cries.

Sound quality is very good to excellent
