The 80s reunion records are worth checking, especially the first one 'Perfect Strangers' which is one of their best albums they did.
This collection of BBC live recordings I think is better than Live in Japan. It's come out in a few different titles. I got this one.

I've got the two-disc of that. The '70 disc is them in jumbo jam mode, and the '72 disc is basically a dress rehearsal for Made In Japan (which was recorded a few months later, iirc).

“Anyone’s Daughter” is such a twisted song. I’d been listening to a lot of Dick’s Picks Dead and realized that song was prime for extended live jams.

On their second album, The Book of Taliesyn, Deep Purple interpolate "Also sprach Zarathustra" by Strauss at the beginning of "River Deep Mountain High". I'd like to suggest that the previous song on the record, "The Shield", also references this piece, with its piano melody alternating between the minor and major third of the scale. Jon Lord must have really liked 2001.

If you are looking for more jumbo jam mode from '70, I highly recommend Scandinavian Nights (I believe later reissued as Live in Stockholm).

A 34-minute "Wring That Neck"! A 29-minute "Mandrake Root"! A 20-minute "Child in Time"!

I feel like "Hush" is the only cover song Deep Purple didn't mangle, but you might like "We Can Work It Out" from their next album.
