RonJonSurfer Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Deep Purple's Live Album Taken Off Store Shelves Sony BMG didn't consult the band before releasing their album 'Live at the Nec 1993.' Deep Purple's pleas that fans stop buying their latest album have worked - the record label responsible for its release has withdrawn copies from store shelves. The veteran rockers were furious when they heard Sony BMG were releasing their double album 'Live at the Nec 1993' to help promote the latest Deep Purple tour because the recording was taken from their worst gig. At the time, singer Ian Gillan and guitarist Ritchie Blackmore were locked in a bitter feud. Blackmore has since left the group. Sony BMG has apologized for failing to notify the band of their sales plans, and have now withdrawn the LP. A spokesman for the company says, "Sony BMG is not in the business of releasing albums without the knowledge of the artists. "It is in our interests to work with artists, so they can promote their records and continue to work with us." He added the label would investigate why Gillan was not told about the album.
