@@larteonceagain I can understand his point in the context of the way the album flows, but it's the kind of song he became more open to in Mark III and Rainbow.
@@delorangeade If it only had been in the context of the album it would make more sense. But Ritchie has never played the song live, he refused. Deep Purple had to wait until 1993 to play it live when Ritchie had quit and Joe Satriani filled in during a year for their touring schedule. There's a video of that here on RUclips. After that when Steve Morse joined they played it often as you also can see on RUclips. They have continued to play after Simon McBride took over after Morse.
Jon's hammond work gives the song a hymnal feel. Ritchie plays with incredible feeling here. He's the best. One of the original shredders, he can then turn around and play the most beautiful languid passages.
Loved this song from the first note when I originally heard it, Mr B really does have magic fingers. I'll never understand why it never made it onto the Machine Head album! Glad you loved this one too.
There's a bit in Keith Richards book about how Charlie Watts was a Jazz drummer, which, he says, kind of makes The Stones a Jazz band. John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, a funk/jazz drummer, Bill Ward of Black Sabbath, most definitely a Jazz drummer, Ian Paice of Deep Purple, seems to be a Jazz drummer to me. Very few people ever seem to talk about this, but i think it makes a lot of sense. They are all of a generation that grew up listening to the Swing/Big Band/Jazz of the time. So is much of the classic 60's and 70's Rock really Jazz? It's an interesting thought!
@@michaelkarlsson5966 good point, it's sometimes so hard to tell the difference. I like how a lot of this sort of stuff can shift genres, sometimes within the same song
Interestingly enough, the song was recorded as a part of the Machine Head sessions & was the "B" side to the single Never Before, but it did not make it onto the album. Still a great song, by a great band.
This Band were and still are ! One the Best Bands of all time !! IMO !! Very soft for "Deep Purple "Brill !! Their are some Albums you just simply have to have in your collection , can I mention some that IMO are essential for your soul ! "Rory Galagher ! Irish Tour 74 " > "Wishbone Ash " Argus > " Queen " A Night at the Opera , > "Thin Lizzy " Live and Dangerous , > " David Bowie " The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust , > " Live Cream " 1 and 2 > "Kate Bush " The Kick Inside , > "Frampton Comes Alive " > Does any one agree ?
@@hanierfamily Thank you for replying ! Have always been well into early Queen ! They played at the Winter Gardens at the bottom of our road in Penzance in 1974,{we used to get any band that was on UK tour} I was a bit young to go but watched them help the roadies with some gear ! Freddie had on his chain mail fore arm , despite being quite early eve ! Then not long after i was seeing a lot of live music ! Didnt have far to walk either !great times ! Cheers
Pretty much all Rory Gallagher is essential 😉 One of a handful of guitarists where you can't hear any calculation in their playing, everything just flows out of his soul. There's nothing in the way.
This is the B side to the Machine Head single and sounds like that studio version. It never appeared on the album despite Paice wanting it on. Blackmore hated it and wouldn't have it on the album and also wouldn't play it live so it was never performed by DP2 on stage. Gillan did it often with his own band and with Garth Rockett and the Moonshiners.
I agree with Jonno. Strange kind of woman is amazing, especially the live version from Deep Purple, Made in Japan. If you're interested, there is a live version with an Ian Gillan solo band over on The Charismatic Voice. There's a very amusing part on ,Elizabeth's actual reaction 🤣
Ça c est de la vrai zik pointue beaucoup d impros comme il n y en plus de nos jours et très en avance pour l époque avec un Blackmore paice Glover lord et Gillan un album me plaît beaucoup aussi Green Bulfrog pour ceux qui connaissent 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👍👍🏼
@@hanierfamily I'll hunt that down! May I humbly suggest these favourite tunes of mine? Family; The Weaver's Answer Part of the Load Lives & Ladies David Coverdale; Hole in the Sky
I think the truer statement is Blackmore did not think it fitted on the album …anytime I have read his comments on this it was about the tune not matching the other songs
Ritchie's touch on the strings is sublime here.
Clapton followed his blues heroes Blackmore created his own blues
And yet he disliked the song.

Uh The best band ever for me. No one can touch em
Ritchie makes the guitar weep, such a master at phrasing and feel. Outstanding song.
Great. One of my favourite Deep Purple songs is Strange Kind Of Woman. I think you will like it too.
Woman from Tokyo is great
That one we already know, Col. Good rockin' tune.
@@hanierfamily Do you know, You fool no one , from Deep Purple MK3?

DP - are rock band out of this world!
They are the father and the mother of rock n roll ever!

inspired by jazz, yes! Far from being actual jazz though. But sometimes the boundaries between genres are very fleeting and fuzzy, luckily! 😀

As Billy says, 'It's still Rock n' Roll to me'.
Grandissime deep purple 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👌

Her reactions are often amusing.
Ils savent tout faire monumental 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👏👏👏👏
RIP Jon Lord. Best album ever. And this song didn't even make it onto the album.
I heard that Ritchie didn't care for this tune. Can you imagine
Ritchie Blackmore le meilleur guitaro je suis deep purple et rainbow depuis les début
Blackmore c est un génie comme a dit Joe Satriani c est mon maître 👍👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Ça c est de la vrai zik pointue beaucoup d impros comme il n y en plus de nos jours et très en avance pour l époque avec un Blackmore paice Glover lord et Gillan un album me plaît beaucoup aussi Green Bulfrog pour ceux qui connaissent 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👍👍🏼
Geniossss!!!
the eyes have it..........................
DP = favourite band.
Crying to the Sky by Be Bop Deluxe is also worth checking out!
We've done a video for that fantastic song.
@@hanierfamily
I'll hunt that down!
May I humbly suggest these favourite tunes of mine?
Family;
The Weaver's Answer
Part of the Load
Lives & Ladies
David Coverdale;
Hole in the Sky
If you love this track check out frankie Miller, jealousy....
Perfect solo. It's very strange, Ritchie didn't like that song
I think the truer statement is Blackmore did not think it fitted on the album …anytime I have read his comments on this it was about the tune not matching the other songs
Sure, but ii was never played in concerts as long as Ritchie was in the group@@alericksonof1967
One of his best solos amongst many.
Please react to Metallica's cover of this song. Hetfield has come a long way from his thrash metal days to cover this song!
Richie wouldn't play this live
Myth Band !!
?
Not a great band, is a Master band
Pure rock
