Deep Purple - 'Concerto For Group And Orchestra [Expanded]

The Concerto for Group and Orchestra is a concerto performed by Deep Purple and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Malcolm Arnold in 1969, composed by Jon Lord. A video recording of this concert was released on DVD in 2003. Original US editions are rare because Tetragrammaton went bankrupt while the album was still being issued. This also led to the cancellation of a tour supporting The Rolling Stones. This album was re-released the following year by Deep Purple's new US label Warner Bros. Records This is the only Tetragrammaton release reissued by Warner Bros.
