Doesn’t get more legendary than that

Roppongi Rocks has a short review of the Deep Purple gig in Tokyo Budokan, on April 11, 2026:

They opened the Budokan show in style with “Highway Star”. Deep Purple back on stage at Budokan! This is what it is all about. Classics such as “Lazy”, “Space Truckin’” and “Smoke on the Water” were obvious highlights in a great show. But we also got terrific performances of “Anya” and the slower “When a Blind Man Cries”. I also dug the excellent versions of “Hard Lovin’ Man” and “Into the Fire”.
