Live At Abbey Road on CD

Deluxe two CD + DVD edition of this live release from the British musician. Includes musical appearances from Jon Lord, Ian Paice, Bernie Marsden, Micky Moody, Neil Murray, John Entwhistle, Zak Starkey (Ringo's son), Zoot Money, Chris Barber and others. As you might expect given that it was recorded at Abbey Road, the sound quality is absolutely first rate. The concert itself was a magical event and this release captures the vibe perfectly. It all starts in earnest when Ewan McGregor introduces the main man himself and Tony Ashton and his band perform their set. Following on from the Ashton set we get the reformed version of the classic late 70's / early-80's formation of Whitesnake AKA Company of Snakes (Jon Lord, Ian Paice, Bernie Marsden, Micky Moody, Neil Murray, with Stefan Berggren handling David Coverdale's duties). These guys dish up a set of crowd-pleasing favorites from yesteryear that really give the old aficionado's in the audience exactly what the doctor ordered. Then what happened next would turn an otherwise brilliant night into legendary - Ian Paice, Tony Ashton Jon Lord (Paice, Ashton and Lord) took the stage for the first (and only time) since 1977. This release is a must for all Tony Ashton fans (obviously), as well as any fans of the original Whitesnake and Paice Ashton Lord. Fans of Deep Purple should enjoy this and general fans of British rock/jazz/blues should appreciate it.
