Deep Purple - MK III: The Final Concerts
MK III: The Final Concerts, alternatively entitled Archive Alive, is a live album released by Deep Purple, recorded during the band's 1975 European tour in support of Stormbringer. It was released in 1996.
This double CD release is culled from the very last performances from Deep Purple MK III featuring Ritchie Blackmore before he left to launch his new band Rainbow with singer Ronnie James Dio. The album features for the most part material from the last concert of the tour held at the Palais des Sports in Paris on April 7, 1975, with a few tracks taken from two shows in Graz, Austria, April 3 and 4.
