The Concerto for Group and Orchestra is a concerto performed by Deep Purple and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Malcolm Arnold in 1969, composed by Jon Lord. It was the first Deep Purple album to feature Ian Gillan on vocals and Roger Glover on bass.
The concerto was released as Concerto for Group and Orchestra on vinyl in December 1969, and as The Best of Both Worlds when shown on TV in the UK on April 4 1970.
A video recording of this concert was released on DVD in 2003. It has also been performed by Australian band george with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. Original US editions are rare because Tetragrammaton went bankrupt while the album was still being issued. This also led to the cancellation of a tour supporting The Rolling Stones. This album was re-released the following year by Deep Purple's new US label Warner Bros. Records This is the only Tetragrammaton release reissued by Warner Bros.
