"Live in Stockholm" is a live album by English hard rock group Deep Purple. The album was recorded in the capital of Sweden on November 12 1970, at Stockholm Konserthus and recorded by Swedish "Tonkraft" (a radio show).

This concert was originally released in 1988 as "Scandinavian Nights" in Europe and as "Live and Rare" in the USA. The original mastertapes were later discovered and are remixed for this release.

Additionally, the "Scandinavian Nights" 2CD had the same running-order as the vinyl release, the set being adjusted to fit the timing-restrictions of vinyl. For "Live in Stockholm" the correct order was restored and this, together with the improved sound-quality, makes it the definitive release of this recording.

Songs on the album are from the "In Rock" album, and long instrumentals from earlier albums. The two songs "Mandrake Root" and "Wring that Neck" took up half the concert in the early days, until the "Fireball" tour.
