Made in Europe features songs recorded in concert on 4 April in
Graz,
Austria, 5 April in
Saarbrücken,
Germany, and 7 April 1975 at
Palais des Sports in
Paris,
France with the
Rolling Stones Mobile Studio. According to the liner notes included on
Mk III: The Final Concerts, though, the material featured on
Made in Europe came, for the most part, from the Saarbrücken show. The album is said to have experienced extensive studio editing and/or
overdubbing of crowd noise and applause. Certainly there is a tape-loop of applause, given away by a whistling fan during the last recording of Stormbringer. The songs featured on the album are from Deep Purple's
Burn and
Stormbringer albums. In 1990, the album was remastered and re-released in the US by Metal Blade Records with distribution by Warner Bros. This record, which had been out of print in the US, was re-released by Friday Music label on 31 July 2007 (along with
Stormbringer and
Come Taste the Band). While the label's website claims that the album has been digitally remastered, it is unclear which tapes were used as a source for this release. The Graz and Paris concerts, of which some of the content for this release is sourced, have been released in full (for unexplained reasons, the drum solo from the Graz concert is missing) by Deep Purple (Overseas) Limited and Ear Music. In 2014, a "super deluxe" boxset of the album was announced, promising to contain the entire Saarbrücken show for the first time, as well as a new MK 3 documentary movie. However, as of April 2026, no news or updates have been made about its release. ==Reception==
