It all happened on July 18, 2011 – when Deep Purple entered the Arena di Verona, one of Europe's most spectacular concert locations, through the same entrance that was once used by the gladiators. "Talk about being thrown to the lions!", recalls Don Airey, who has nothing but fond recollections of this memorable night. Live In Verona is an exceptional recording of the complete show, featuring the hard-rock veterans together with a full 38-piece orchestra – the Neue Philharmonie Frankfurt. Available here on gatefold 180g vinyl 3LP.
