I really thought I will be able to see the band in action.. instead you get 5 guys who keep coming in to give their criticism or opinions..At the end of the DVD session, I felt like tthrowing it in the bin. I would at least would have appreciated at least one song played full. Who needs their opinions.. I know deep Purple.. I don't need the 5 individuals giving me their opinions. The music world have its ups and down. no matter what .. these musicians have given us their work. appreciate and enjoy.

What a disappointment. I thought that this DVD would be the concert version of the Made in Japan album (CD). Instead, the first 35 minutes (of a 60 minute DVD) are a summary of all the albums of Deep Purple Mark II that lead up to the Made in Japan album. When the four narrators finally get around to discussing the Made in Japan album, they use concert footage from previous concerts (filmed in the US, Germany, and elsewhere) to illustrate their point about a certain song. The only Japanese footage included in this marginal DVD are a few cutaways of the Japanese crowd at a concert. And we don't really know if this footage is from the Deep Purple concert! Except for these few crowd shots, THERE IS NO CONCERT FOOTAGE OF DEEP PURPLE'S CONCERTS IN JAPAN ON THIS DVD. I would have given this DVD zero stars, but there is no mechanism on this review in which to do so.

I agree with R.KEEFE.I thought it would be the concert,one of the best concerts I had ever listened.60 minutes of mono music with the comment of some critics,like we needed such comments.

This DVD is so stupid.Wish I hadn't been fooled by the title.

Talk about a con job. This dvd is garbage! All this waste of money dvd does is make you mad that you bought it. It's a few guys that I've never heard of talking about how Deep Purple are this or that. This dvd will be thrown in the garbage very soon. After I use it for awhile as a coaster for my beer I'll maybe take it outside in the backyard and have some target practice with my bb gun just to relieve some frustration.

The sad thing is I was so exicited thinking I was getting Made in Japan on dvd.

I wish I would have read the comments before I wasted my money.This is a very deceiving piece of junk.A bunch of editorial Boobs telling us what we already know. I thought this was REALLY Made in Japan. The most footage you will get is about 20 seconds of songs at best and the rest is trash.

Do not waste your money. Hopefully one day we will get the real thing.
