Just as the
title says, the 2001 Deep Purple DVD, New, Live & Rare: The Video
Collection 1984-2000, collects all of the legendary British metal band's
promo videos as well as scattered live clips from their 1984 reunion up
to the time of this DVD's release. As longtime fans know, Deep Purple's
true glory days lay in the early '70s, when they dropped such classic
molten metal releases as In Rock, Fireball, and Machine Head on an
unsuspecting world. And while its bandmembers have kept Purple alive
well into the new millennium (despite line-up juggling), most of the
newer material on New, Live & Rare doesn't hold a candle to the
band's earlier classics.
The over two-hour-long compilation begins with the video for the band's
fantastic epic title track from their 1984 reunion album, Perfect
Strangers, and unlike most of the other promo clips here, its video
isn't dated at all (since it focuses on home video-like scenes of the
band's recording sessions and getting reacquainted with each other). On
the other hand, such painfully dated clips for "Knockin' at Your Back
Door" (which is based on a Mad Max-type concept and in which the band is
barely featured) as well as such schlock rockers as "King of Dreams"
and "Love Conquers All" haven't aged well at all. But the real
attraction here are the overabundance of live clips, including such
highlights as "Black Night," "Nobody's Home," "Space Truckin'," "Speed
King," and "Woman From Tokyo." Original guitarist Ritchie Blackmore is
only on half of the selections, and while his replacement, Steve Morse,
is certainly capable and talented in his own right, Blackmore brought an
excitement and spontaneity to the proceedings that the perfectly
rehearsed "Morse-era" lacks. In addition, the DVD includes such bonus
features as three extra clips, bandmember biographies, and a photo
gallery -- and its quite fun to trace singer Ian Gillan's
always-changing hairstyles throughout the video! Despite its
shortcomings, most serious Deep Purple fans should enjoy New, Live &
Rare: The Video Collection 1984-2000. |
