DEEP PURPLE CONCERT - LA PAZ BOLIVIA, 03/25/97

We are a group of friends and we have something in comon: We are fanatics of Deep Purple since we were teenagers, and after many years we had the oportunity to attend a live concert that we never thought that could be real.
After 16 hours of a funny trip, we arrived La Paz City from Santa Cruz de La Sierra and we were ready to rock!!!!
The concert started at 22:00 hrs. and during 2 hours of the best Rock that we´ve never heard before the performance of the band was incredible, what a sound!!!, perfect, the band is the same than 20 years ago, for a moment We heard the made in Japan a live. It was amazing when John Lord after hearing his name screamed by 10.000 people played ¨El Condor Pasa¨ (a song of the bolivian folklore), the teather bursted in rejoicing.
The last album of Deep is excellent, Steve Morse plays fantastic, Gillian is still singing like a vocals master, Paice is the best drummer of the world, Glover and his feeling gives the band that magic that we know. The concert was fantastic, we´ll never forget this show and we hope to see Deep Purple again. Thank you Deep Purple.
