Nobody's Perfect (Deep Purple Album)

Nobody's Perfect is a live album released in 1988 by Deep Purple. It was recorded on their The House of Blue Light tour during 1987 in Europe and the USA. The album peaked at number 105 on the Billboard 200 in the US.

Track transitions are marked by fades. It also contains a new studio (Live Jam) version of "Hush" to commemorate their 20th anniversary. "Black Night" was also re-recorded but never released. "Hard Lovin' Woman" includes parts of "Under The Gun" during Blackmore's guitar solo. "Strange Kind of Woman" includes the "Superstar" chorus from Jesus Christ Superstar. "Woman from Tokyo" changes into "Everyday" (Buddy Holly) halfway through. The album represented Deep Purple's setlist at the time, which consisted much of the typical Made in Japan set, combined with newer material from the 1984 reunion album Perfect Strangers and The House of Blue Light. Songs such as "The Unwritten Law" and "Difficult To Cure" (which included an extended-riff from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, 4th Movement) were played every night on the tour, but were not included on this album.

    As the age of television progresses the Reagans will be the rule, not the exception. To be perfect for television is all a President has to be these days.
    Gore Vidal (b. 1925)

    This great purple butterfly,
    In the prison of my hands,
    Has a learning in his eye
    Not a poor fool understands.
    Once he lived a schoolmaster
    With a stark, denying look....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
