This tour featured the band’s seventh lineup and served as the final tour for guitarist Ritchie Blackmore. The European leg was intended to promote the album *The Battle Rages On* (released in September), and a Japanese tour had also been scheduled; however, the year became a historic turning point for the band when Ritchie Blackmore abruptly departed during a concert in Helsinki in November. The performances from September and October—the early stages of the tour—were quite strong, offering an engaging setlist that blended tracks from the new album with classic hits. Ritchie’s guitar work is particularly notable, featuring numerous improvisational phrases, and vocalist Ian Gillan is in excellent form, making for a highly enjoyable listening experience. The sound quality is consistently high, as it is sourced from a soundboard (SBD) recording. An excellent audience (AUD) recording is used for the encore, but it blends in seamlessly, allowing for an enjoyable listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PHOENIX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67794974441771,"sku":null,"price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0846\/6475\/files\/1_f26b6173-fa86-41c3-91dc-2e87f18edccf.jpg?v=1792284411","url":"https:\/\/wmlshopjapan.com\/it\/products\/deep-purple-the-battle-rages-on-european-tour-1993-france-2nd-show-le-zenith-2cdr","provider":"WML Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
