An extremely rare ORIGINAL BBC Transcription Disc of Deep Purple recorded live at the London Gaumont State Theatre, May 5, 1974. This is an authentic BBC original ultra high quality pressing with green & white labels, not the common bootleg (which has black and white labels.) These were made in extremely limited numbers–perhaps 50 only–and sent to UK radio stations, which played them once, and then discarded or returned them to the BBC. Consequently they are extremely rare and sought after. This is in stunning near mint condition, with a small vinyl flaw that makes a few very quiet swoosh sounds—otherwise it grades mint. This comes with the original BBC sleeve, but unfortunately no longer has the “cue sheet.’ Tracks include Burn/Might Just Take Your Life/Lay Down Stay Down/Mistreated/Smoke On The Water/You Fool No One (incl. drum solo and The Mule.)
