Burn. Coverdale grew up in the North-East, and his debt to Paul Rodgers
is clear on this emotive performance of a song he began writing in his
days before joining Purple. Remastered for this set from the original
album.

b-side. It had been six years since the band last recorded a studio
instrumental, and Blackmore was given plenty of room to stretch out
on this obscure b-side. Remastered for this set from the original tapes.
[3] You Fool

Ontario Speedway, California. One of Mk 3's most imaginative tracks,
taken from one of their most infamous concerts, the music overshadowed
by the trashing of a TV camera on-stage. From 'California Jamming',
EMI 1996.

San Diego Sports Arena. This blues rock track was an album stand-out
and even more powerful on-stage, though I've yet to hear it with a guitar
opening quite so blisteringly awesome as the one captured here on Mk
3's first American tour. Previously unissued officially, it appeared
on the Perks & Tit bootleg.

Kilburn Gaumont. During their UK tour, the band allowed the BBC to broadcast
a show in their In Concert slot, issued in 1982 as Live In London but
yet to make CD in Europe. The extra-long set-closer has never been issued
before anywhere.
