Ritchie in particular is metamorphising into the guitar god we all loved, in that time frame. His work on [the bootlegs] Long Beach 73, Rainbow Theater 73 and MkII Final Truckin' is some of the hottest of his career. Lord is impressive, Gillan is in fine form, and the Glover/Paice team is a monster. It's unfortunate they couldn't have survived somehow, the concerts for the most part are great.
-- Jim Collins, January 1999

Three songs from this record [Tommy Bolin's Teaser] - "Wild Dogs", "Marching Power" [Powder] and "Homeward Strut" - would soon be incorporated into Deep Purple's stage repertoire...

Five new songs - "Lady Luck", "Gettin' Tighter", "Dealer", "Love Child" and "This Time Around" with it's instrumental coda subtitled "Owed To G" - were incorporated into a new live act as well as the three songs from Bolin's own album. Four old songs were retained: "Burn" which opened the show, "You Fool No-One", the lengthy "Space Truckin'" and the Deep Purple anthem "Smoke On The Water" which Tommy Bolin played in fifths as opposed to block chord riffs that Blackmore had originally used. "Highway Star" was also retained for encores.

Incidentally, Chris Charlesworth's official biography is wrong in the set lists it gives for this period.

I have never heard a tape of mark 4 performing either 'You Fool No One' or 'Space Truckin''
