Scandinavian Nights is a live album by Deep Purple. It was originally recorded by Swedish National Radio for a radio show called Tonkraft at the Stockholm Konserthuset on 12th November 1970, but not released until 1988.
Tapes re-mixed by Tom Leader at Angel Studios. It remains the prime example of the early Mk II set list and ferocious concert dynamics.
