Recording and release

The album was recorded live over three nights during 15-17 August 1972 in Osaka and at Budokan in Tokyo, Japan, hence the name of the album. The tracks mostly come from their studio effort, Machine Head.

The three concerts recorded were later released as Live in Japan 3-CD box set (1993). According to the liner notes for that set, unlike many live albums, there are no overdubs or studio additions to the original album.

The release in the US was delayed because Warner Bros. wanted to release Who Do We Think We Are first.

Cover version

On January 13, 2006, progressive metal band Dream Theater played the original album in its entirety at Kokusai Forum in Tokyo, and also on the 15th at NHK Hall in Osaka. Both performances were recorded, and one of the two shows has been released through the band's Ytse Jam Records label. It has been mixed for release by Roger Glover.
