This 3CD set contains almost three full concerts; the same three gigs that supplied the contents to the classic Made in Japan 1972. Two of the tracks included there ("Smoke on the Water" from the 15th and "The Mule" from the 17th) have not been included on this release. In addition, neither encore from the 16th ("Black Night" & "Lucille") is included, nor are the encores from the 17th ("Black Night" & "Speed King"); the first of which is available on a variety of singles, EPs and compilations. Both encores from the 15th are included.
