Few bands are more closely associated with Montreux than Deep Purple and so the decision to name them as the closing night head liners at the 40th Montreux Festival in 2006 was simple. The band duly delivered one of their finest live performances, choosing songs from their latest album "Rapture Of The Deep" through a set full of their classic tracks. A brand new song, "Too Much Fun", was written especially for the occasion whilst there was also a show-stopping performance of "Smoke On The Water".
