Release dates

Release date was December 8 in Japan, as "Live in Japan" and December 22 in the UK, as "Made In Japan" -- Purple74 (talk) 07:54, 8 December 2023 (UTC) 07:52, 08 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is proven by the fact that it only charted on January 6, once the sales got reported. Had it been released in December 8, given the popularity of the band and the album, it would have charted two weeks earlier: https://www.officialcharts.com/albums/deep-purple-made-in-japan/

Also, Sounds magazine reported on December 9 that they had received the promo material, which makes it incompatibile with a December 8 release. Purple74 (talk) 19:46, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Any comments on the gunshot heard during "Child In Time"? Rumor has it that a Japanese fan climbed on stage and blew his brains out with a handgun.147.27.2.135 20:21, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Never happened. It would have made the news and at least one of the many interviews the band has given since then. And, they would have immediately stopped the gig.

Then was it some kind of technical glitch like an amplifier tube or fuse blowing or a microphone stand falling? Elp gr 23:26, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I always thought it was just the Hammond being knocked slightly with the reverb turned on, causing the springs to crash into each other. This was done deliberately (the end of Space Truckin' is full of it), but can easily be done by accident too. Pick up and move a combo amp with spring reverb when it's switched on to see! --Ritchie333 (talk) 12:22, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That was Jon Lord tilting the Hammond and making it fall back. He was doing it regularly at the time. -- Purple74 (talk) 07:54, 8 December 2023 (UTC) 07:52, 08 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

How about what happens about a minute into Speed King?75.73.72.108 00:41, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On the album, Jon Lord is credited with "Organ, Piano". I know he had an RMI at the time but I've never heard evidence of it on Made In Japan. Any takers? --Ritchie333 (talk) 12:22, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mystery shout

What is the phrase that Ian Gillan yells immediately before Paice goes into his drum solo on The Mule? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.210.189.17 (talk) 17:04, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's "Ian Paice on the drums, yes!". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.80.164.19 (talk) 08:47, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, that's at the end of the track. It's some garbled shout immediately after the lyric "just another slave for the Mule" as the rest of the band dropped out. Might be "Madly to go - yeeah" but I've no idea and there's some doubt that Gillan has ever heard the album. --Ritchie333 (talk) 15:10, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He should have been shouting "We will fuck you like supermen!" Deep Purple wuld have been far more entitled to that phrase than the Beatles (supposedly, the final loop on Sgt.Pepper was one of the Fab Four saying "I will fuck you like a superman", and then turned in reverse) :) Strausszek (talk) 00:48, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds to me like "Stanley look out, yeah!", but probably isn't... Halmyre (talk) 13:22, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Happy 40th birthday!

The 16th August, 1972 gig in Osaka, which made up the bulk of this album, was exactly 40 years ago today. After having some cake, I'll see if I can dig out some old archive interviews I've got to improve the article. --Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 11:41, 16 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
