In my opinion, the best rock band of all time
Totally agree🎸
Meaning ... Mk 2. Gillan & Blackmore
Agree totally
+ Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin
,... BLACK SABBATH & URIAH HEEP!!! ❤🎉😊 BERNIE / GERMANY 😊😊
You are not wrong. Each member of the band is regarded as being among the finest of their craft.
John was responsible for a lot of the feel of the band.
Their love of Jazz and Classical music are big parts of what made this band special.
Ian Paice is one of the most underrated drummers. To think he was only 20/21 here and had so much grit on those drums
He's certainly highly rated and is even in The Modern Drummer Hall of Fame. I get what you mean though since Purple are underrecognized by the US mainstream.
The ride cymbal is massively underused nowadays and Ian was a master of utilising it create a mood!
@@bookhouseboy280 … Black S. and Led Z. have been selected for the US market! ... and Deep Purple for the European and Asian markets! I am very grateful for that 😄! Unfortunately, people in America were unlucky not to really know Deep Purple!
… Unfortunately, unfortunately, many are very blind and cannot see a diamond that is in front of their nose!! But that's her bad luck! … Ian Paice is the best drummer for me!!! 🥁🥁🥁👍🏻
I totally agree!
Mr Jon Lord on keys and founder of the group. RIP to Jon whom passed quite a few years ago
"Is he like the greatest keyboard player ever"? That's Jon Lord of the Keyboard!
Awesome. Deep Purple had such a unique sound.🥰
Ian Gillan’s grandfather was an opera singer so you know where he got those pipes. Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice who wrote the music for the play Jesus Christ Superstar were so impressed with Ian on Child In Time that they asked him to do the part of Jesus on the JC Superstar official album and he did an amazing job on that record.
Yes, a band full of GODS... rock gods!!
And let's all pay tribute - without Deep Purple, Metallica would not exist.
They are touring the USA in 2023 5 dates with Ian Gillan on vocals who is 77 years old ,that is crazy to think you can still see these guys live ,what legends they are .
I'm sure by now you know how diverse and amazing our music, which we grew up with was back in the day. It's all I still listen to even now
Deep Purple is one of the finest hard rock bands ever.
This is not a bunch of highschool pals, or hippies, these are five REAL MUSICIANS.
JON LORD (r.i.p. 2012) was a classical (symphonic) composer, he loved classical music and put it into the Purple soul.
RITCHIE BLACKMORE is a real MAESTRO of the guitar, but very bad temper, he never liked publicity or interviews. Maybe this is the reason that many people don't reconigze him.
IAN (Silver Throat) GILLAN is the best hard rock singer, capable to reach incredible high notes on stage every night in the 70s. Far better than Plant or Osbourne.
ROGER GLOVER is an amazing and precise bass player, also composer and producer of hard rock music.
IAN PAICE is one of the most awesome drummers of the world ever.
So here you have an amazing keyboardist, a brilliant guitarist, an extraordinary singer, a great bass player and an incredible drummer together, five overtalented musicians doing their best, on stage they were in like a friendly battle, because they wanted to show the other members that they are better, so they defy each other to play or sing better. The result, Deep Purple is like a precision machine on stage and sounds better than in the studio, also was an extraordinary show, as you have seen.
The band reformed many times, and had personnal changes but always on the top, and is still on the road now (2022). Very famous in Europe and Asia, americans don't know much about them, but Smoke on the Water.
They had influenced Van Halen, Judas Priest, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mettalica, Yngwie Malmsteem, Iron Maiden, Dio, etc.
Also original members created their own bands, like Rainbow, Whitesnake and Gillan Band.
Don't worry about the quiet audience, they were told not to move by the television company because they were filming and recording.
Try to discover more from this incredible band, full of energy and great music.
I highly recommend the tracks from MADE IN JAPAN album (1972) "Highway Star", "Strange Kind of Woman", "Lazy" "Black Night" and "Space Trucking" to understand the full Purple power.
Have luck.
Hey man, don't sweat the pausing. It's your natural reaction, let it fly, this is intense music made by intense people. If you get this unprepared it's like a sledgehammer to the soul. I heard this first on Made in Japan from their 72? tour. I remember just losing it, no one had ever heard anything like that before. It's so good to hear it again.
You can't look at that ranked list. Ritchie Blackmore was the greatest guitarist to ever play on stage. He just wasn't like by the Rock Media because Blackmore could have care less. You have to listen to Made In Japan. It is considered by millions as the Greatest Live Album ever Recorded. It has no studio enhancements. It is perfect and the way it was played on those nights in Japan.
Wow! You think better than Hendrix and Jimmy Paige?
@@MMBxMOB I know for sure better than Page. Saw him twice. I was to young to see Hendrix but he was absolutely with Blackmore the two best performing Guitarist. Hendrix was very impressed by Ritchie. Hendrix called Ritchie Mr. Speed. Ritchie has also sold Millions of Album's of Acoustic Work. He has so much more music than almost anyone in the business. It subjective but yes to me Ritchie is the greatest all around guitarist. But I am a huge Page Fan so don't get me wrong he was great. I will say this Page could play live on Heroin much better than Tommy Bolin could play on Heroin. I am just glad Page lived through it. Page was a excellent studio guitarist and I know he played better performances than when I saw him
@@MMBxMOB Absolutely! Listen to Brian May from Queen talking about Ritchie. Ritchie admired Hendrix as a performer but Hendrix himself held Ritchie in high regard. For many Ritchie is the greatest guitarist.
In the US Led Zeppelin is better known but in Europe, Deep Purple was (and still is) bigger.
As Ritchie himself said, he is better technically but admit the superior musical sense and arrangements of Page.@@MMBxMOB
A fucking incredible song by a band of geniuses. The live version on Made in Japan is mind blowing too.
Legends every one of them!!! RIP Jon Lord, super talented man
you're right!and Gentleman.
They are easily the greatest hard rock band, but were not as big in the US as Zeppelin was. Ritchie Blackmore is a guitar god, he founded Deep Purple and the rock band Rainbow and wrote the most iconic riff in rock history. Check out the studio version of Child In Time and hear Blackmores 3 minute solo it is on par with Stairway!
Also check out Highway Star, Burn, When A Blind man Cries, Mistreated... so many great tracks.
This song is perfection! I had the midwives play it at my babie's home birth in 1986!
This is a masterpiece (I was 7 years old when they recorded this) and each member was top of the food chain.
ALL of Deep Purple band members are LEGENDARY in the rock world.
Led Zep and Deep Purple are still 2 of my favourite bands. Thank you for your great reaction!!
If you watch the “Mule” video, I think the song is called The Mule, you will see and hear Ian Paice playing a one handed drum solo very fast.....
This always takes drummers by surprise and blows their mind against the wall.
One of the best live bands ever.
Love your reaction! Deep Purple are amazing! Great band and Ian Gillan…damn!
Deep Purple individually and collectively have never been the 'darlings' of the Rock media, unlike Led Zep. But the rankings are more about popularity than ability.
Band full of Gods... That's 100% correct! Mind blown that this is a live version - nothing today comes even close.
Agreed 100%
Totally agree!
One of the best song of the music history. Grettings from Spain 🖐🏿🖐️
Love to Spain!!!
As a DP fanatic, I've watched many reaction videos to Child in Time. Yours is by far the best as it's clear you fully appreciate them. I strongly recommend you watching DP's Speed King (Perihelion). It will blow your away.
I totally agree with you as a fellow DP fanatic! Heartwarming to see someone fully appreciate them this way!
Deep Purple legend of rock!!!!
Highway Star is a must. My favourite driving song ever!
Wow, I just loved your reaction and the respect you show for them. ❤
Underrated/under appreciated because modern journalism/media fanboy over Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and ignore Deep Purple. Very sad that one of the greatest bands, especially live, are ignored.
Gillan, Paice, Glover still performing with Deep Purple. Ritchie has his renaissance music. Jon Lord RIP.
Watch Rainbow - Mistreated from Munich 1977, or Deep Purple - Lazy from Denmark 1972. Ritchie is one of the greatest guitarists ever without doubt.
Ian Paice is undoubtedly Rock's Buddy Rich, to the point he gets involved with Buddy Rich Orchestra and events ran by Buddy's daughter.
Jon Lord: watch Rick Wakeman talk about him
I'm 73 remember this was early days of live tv recording audiences had to remain virtually motionless and quiet to get the recording done - notice the huge cable tethered tv cameras... it was an excellent quality for that time - 1970
Studio crowd under orders to be quiet and not disturb the recording. Very common for the time.
deep purple are not underrated. they are still touring huge, still putting out great albums. here, you´re watching the band´s greatest line-up. i personally always held this purple-cast way over zeppelin. and "child in time" has always been my all-time favorite rock-anthem eversince the 70ies, way over stairway. thanks for a great reaction. trivia for you: ian gillan was black sabbath´s singer from 1982 - 1984.
It was a live TV recording... the crowd were asked to sit quietly
They all are a category of their own.They need no rank list!Listen to live Made In Japan and you will understand why people ranked them amongst the gratest!
GREAT reaction👍. The reason you have never heard of Deep Purple before, and why those band members are not on the top of any lists is because: the music industry / press have ignored them repeatedly in favour of Led Zeppelin and other acts. Deep Purple is seriously superior in musicianship and virtuosity to most other bands. But, they don't play the media game like other bands do. As such they get neglected. The lesson in all this.....Don't believe everything you read or hear in various media (radio, magazines, TV, videos) about who is the best this or that. There is lots of great music to be discovered outside of what the music media / corporate conglomerate would have you believe. And lots of other Deep Purple music to discover too because they are still writing and still touring after more than 50 years.
Big Ian G hitting those crazy notes. Deep Purple MK 2 my favorite along with Zeppelin.
They are underrated compared to Zeppelin as you said...but only in U.S.A. not in Europe... anyway Deep Purple is not just a band...they are a world to be discovered...so many awesome songs and album...not only by them but even by their relative own members bands and solo albums.
I am Canadian and have seen Deep Purple twice and Led Zeppelin once and I have always preferred Deep Purple even though many of my friends liked Zeppelin but I thought they were Good but never better than Deep Purple, Ian Gillan had the most amazing voice i have ever heard even till this day Dec. 28, 2022
black sabbath, deep purple, led zeppelin AND (early) uriah heep are the foundation of heavy metal. yes, blackmore is basically considered top10. it depends on which list you´re looking at.
Ah, how I love watching people reacting to this song for the first time! It never disappoints 😂. The utter shock and disbelief of their capabilities. I was in shock, too, when I first heard it. It’s so good!
This was filmed for a uk program called Doing Their Thing the audience was told to keep quiet during filming
also in the audience sitting at the back in a pink top was the Manchester United football legend George Best
Ahhhh gotcha, thank you for telling me this! That makes sense!
@@MMBxMOB It was a weekly series that aired in 1970 from July to September two of my favourite bands that appeared on the show were Free and Stone the Crows
Yo bro I was born in 1956 I grew up with you all this music work for some of the Bands saw the bands whatever I'm ready to take this journey with you you really got it it's an amazing catalog of Music out there
I knew when he went into the scream it was gonna get ya!
John Lord (RIP) was the greatest keyboard player in Hard Rock/Heavy metal history.
He was classically trained and you can easily see that in his playings.
Ritchie Blackmore also founded the Hard Rock band Rainbow in the mid-70's with their best album being the 1976: Rising.
The best known song on that album is Stargazer. Awesome opening drum and toward the middle, Blackmore shreds the guitar for several minutes.
The frontman for Rainbow was another Heavy Metal singer legend: Ronnie James Dio who is, along with Ian Gillian, the greatest voice in Hard Rock history.
This song blew my mind the first time I heard it. Was nice to see your first time hearing it!
AMO DEEP PURPLE LA MEJOR BANDA DE LOS 70!!!
Bro there's a lot of jaw dropping music you haven't heard yet that's the best part of it you're reacting to it now I reacted to it back then when it came out and I love watching people react to these songs that they never heard
Ritchie Blackmore hated fame, and rarely did interviews or wanted limelight. He was considered a moody character, he's actually very likable if you get his humour. He influenced bands and guitarists like Van Halen, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Brian May of Queen and bands like Iron Maiden, Metalica etc. He bought classical music to rock with Rainbow. He should be No.1 on any list.
Well said, Ritchie is my GOAT and Rainbow is amazing.
Absolutely Blackmore to me is the greatest of greats. His range and creativity was off the charts. He has also sold Millions of Album's of Acoustic Work. His attitude was responsible for his great music and confidence on stage. Ritchie and Hendrix were the two best performing guitarist. He had the ability to make the easy stuff look hard and the hard stuff look easy.
Ritchie is my favourite guitarist of all time, but I have to admit there are better technical guitarists out there. Having said that, none of those other guitarists make me FEEL music the way Blackmore does. He pushes all the right buttons for me ... or at least he did in the 1970s. I think he was the most "explosive" guitar player out there (listen to the start of Speed King, or the solos in Child In Time or I'm Alone for evidence of that), as well as one of the most creative. He's definitely UNDERRATED.
I love Ritchie so much but he doesn't have the versatility or composition ability Page does.
@@Veggamattic That's true. Page is a better and more unconventional songwriter than Blackmore. He also plays acoustic guitar a lot more and has more creative ideas. But Blackmore is a much better, more explosive soloist, especially in a live setting. And he can be extremely subtle and emotional when he needs to be.
You should listen to their live in japan. Ian Gillan and Richie Blackmore used to duel, Richie played a riff and Ian sang it, or screamed it… They are all classified as ”one of the world’s greatest…” Amazing band, I grew up listening to them.
Great reaction 😊 thankyou for really listening and learning - one of the greatest live performances of all time I never tire of it - and it's an anti war monger song- and you just heard it for the first time aaah!
That’s what got me too, that, yodelling, in between. Such voice control.
Vietnam was happening...this was one of our protest songs when I was growing up back then...this era of music is some of the greatest ever produced...Check out Pink Floyd, and get a snorkel, it's a deep dive...start with Dark Side of the Moon...Rock ON!!!
IMHO the definitive version of this song is on the Made in Japan album. It clocks in at 12:18 long, and it blows this TV version away; trust me. The ending may be the most intense 1 minute and 30 seconds of rock music ever recorded. The audience sits in stunned silence for a minute and then erupts into applause. The lyric you couldn't understand is "the bullets flying, taking toll".
When Deep Purple formed in 1968 they were impressed and influenced by Vanilla Fudge, which also featured a heavy organ sound. Ian Paice's father was a jazz musician, and you can hear how his style is jazz-influenced; especially his snare drum technique. Their first hit in England (1970) was called "Black Night". The version of that song on the expanded "Made in Japan" CD is worth checking out. Also, get a copy of the"Deep Purple at California Jam 1974" DVD to see the Mark III version of the band, especially Blackmore's antics during "Space Truckin'". They had to hurry him away from the concert site in a helicopter to keep him from getting arrested!
All the members of this band were top 10 players on their respective instruments, and I'll put them up against any of their peers any day of the week. When you see interviews with rock musicians who came after Deep Purple you will understand how well-respected these guys are by the people they influenced. Jon Lord early on realized that in order to compete with Blackmore's ferocious sound he was going to have to do something more than run his Hammond B-3 organ into Leslie cabinets, which is what you do with a B-3. That sound is timeless and one of the most important elements in good rock and R&B, but it wasn't enough. So he figured out how to run the Hammond through a stack of Marshall amplifiers, the same as Blackmore. The stunning result was what Lord called "The Beast" and he used it to good effect on stage and in the studio. Steve Morse, who replaced Blackmore in 1996, and just retired to tend to his cancer-stricken wife, was voted top guitarist in the world 5 years in a row by Guitar Player Magazine in the late '70s and early '80s as he lead the Dixie Dregs, a group of Miami University jazz program grads that played a dazzling mix of mostly instrumental jazz, rock, classical, and country music. Their albums are still available and worth checking out.
Purple is often unjustly ignored in rock history writings and by certain RUclips channels; Blackmore had a reputation for being moody and difficult, and he had little tolerance for some of the stupid questions he was asked by rock journalists. He also liked playing practical jokes on people, and he didn't try to curry favor with the rock elites or the rock press. That's why it took so long for them to be inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame. Blackmore refused to attend the ceremony, calling the Hall a joke. He's right.
Thanks for doing the video - I get a huge thrill watching someone getting turned on to things that I am passionate about. I have loved these guys since 1972 when I first became aware of them.
True kudos to you. You got it all 1st time. Best live 1 off rock performance ever.
1970 - i was 3 years old - my start to listen Heavy Metal was 1980 - today with 55 years and still long hair listen l Heavy Metal more than 40 years -- R.I.P John Lord
been loving this song for 40 yrs!!! seen them live -amazing
When you sat down after dancing to this, you felt you'd run a marathon. Sadly, there has been a complete breakdown of gifted musicians and innovative music, since about 2000. Same music regurgitated. I love watching young people discover true musicianship for the first time.
Hermano, uno no puede describir con palabras lo impresionante que era "Deep Purple" en sus buenos tiempos. Simplemente tenían una magia cuando tocaban. Saludos desde Perú ✌️🎸
Hola! De Uruguay pero vivo en Australia. Saludos 🤟
Los ví en buenos aires y fue impresionante... Mi banda preferida, no tiene competencia ... Es el rock en todos sentidos....
Saludos de una Uruguaya viviendo en Australia
Underrated because America doesn’t appreciate good music, in Europe, and Japan they were the best band in the world
The trilogy of keyboard players, Jon Lord, Keith Emerson and Rick Wakeman.
You hit it best 3 in the world of rock.
,... Crappy Speaking, guy ~ KENNETH HENSLEY OF INCREDIBLE U R I A H H E E P 😊🎉❤ ! ! ! DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST😊! BERNIE GERMANY 😊
@@bernhardherrmann9230 Bernd, is ja gut, komm mal wieder was runter, hast ja nicht ganz unrecht, wobei ich auch so ziemlich Stephanie zustimmen kann. Für mich sind es (ohne definierte Rangfolge) Jon, Keith, Rick, Ken und außerdem Tony Banks... das sind meine Top 5 keyboarders of all time (honorable mentions: Richard Wright + Wooly Wolstenhome (RIP) )
Peace
Great video!
Greetings from Łódź, Poland 🇵🇱
The original members of Deep Purple, like the members of Led Zeppelin, were all among the best in their respective areas as musicians. Jimmy Page and Ritchie Blackmore were in the same group of sessions musicians. Talent wise as a band probably the only band, that I know, I could even put in that collection of across the band talent would be the "Eagles." All extremely talented musicians, and each band member took turns as lead singer, and they all had at least one song hit the charts. Of these three bands the Eagles has had the most record sales.
To be honest, those are my top 3 favorite studio bands. Led Zeppelin being my favorite, the Eagles, and then Deep Purple. However, Deep Purple is by far my favorite live band.
“Lord is God” was what the crowd was you to shout during concert.. saw them +20 times…
Flight of the rat, that song rocks !!
Ritchie's only WA WA song. Flight Of The Rat is awesome. In Rock is probably the most influential Rock Album. It is a genre of it's own.
Just listen to in rock last night for Christmas. People were floored that it was 1970, lol 😆
@Barry Rammer In Rock is a genre of it's own. My #1 studio album of all time.
Rat bat blue, Demon eyes, stormbringer, anthem, burn, fireball,etc,ect, ect....
Bro, it's absolutely the best reaction to this song I've ever seen🔥🔥🔥 Thank you so much👏 Deep Purple forever🤘
Band member for band member they were just as brilliant as Zeppelin. What Zeppelin had that DP lacked was one great consistent lineup, 10 years of continuity through the seventies, and a lower level of internal conflicts.
True. Zep were fortunate to have a manager who looked out for them. Purple were overworked by their management which exacerbated tensions that could've been resolved if they'd been given some time off.
@@bookhouseboy280 Absolutely, thanks! That might have been the actual root cause for the tension within the band. I can’t help wonder where DP Mk.2 would have been in the late seventies if they had something remotely alike to ‘worklife balance’…
Jon Lord said they played 320 shows in a year. That is way to much togetherness and that absolutely destroyed Mark ll.
Greatest rock song ever written, alongside Stargazer.
Cette chanson devrait culminer au top des plus belles placée dans les premières.Quant je vois leurs classement et qu'elle n'y ait pas c'est vraiment lamentable et triste.
I saw them live in Houston in 1971, everyone was stoned and this song seemed to be over in what seemed like 30 secs and they play a longer version in most concerts. I was 17 or so.
Still don't understand why you won't sit still and watch these videos. You miss out on so much.
Hahahaha, this reaction is amazing. Seeing you stop at each point when we all know it's about to step up again and again and again. Great stuff.
Song was about the Cold War originally, but a few references to Vietnam as well...... although England had nothing to do with Vietnam.
One last comment-the crowd isn’t rocking because they are mostly SHOCKED. This was right at the beginning. Jimi had just blown minds in 67, 68, 69, and now into the early 70s you had Zep and Sabbath and this band, just melting music. Folks were shook. Watch Hendrix at Monterey. People just have their jaws open going wut?
They were told to be polite and quiet for the BBC.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to this gem. Yes, _"Child In Time"_ is a inspired by the Vietnam War (Gillan later said "the Cold War"). This live show was a British TV Show called _Deep Purple - "Doing Their Thing",_ released 21st august. The audience is quiet because the band asked for it so they wouldn't interfere with the sound on the recording. It was from hearing Ian Gillan perform this song that he was hired to do the "Jesus" part on the _"Jesus Christ Superstar"_ album recorded shortly after.
Long song so little air play on radio. Yes John Lord one of the best ever on the keyboard. Richie one of the best guitar players. Lot of great song to listen to.
It got no airplay because it was too long for radio
I don't know if this is a UK crowd but I think they are 'dry' as you said because we were truly spoilt for amazing music in the 60s/70s/and some of the 80s. We took it for granted I think back then.
Yes Lord is the greatest !😊
Listen to the remastered dvd /download of .. Concerto for group and orchestra , live 1969. Amazing.
No other band could have put out that and the album .. Deep Purple In Rock .. within a few months of each other. Anyone who saw that band live at their peak will tell you … they have never been equalled as a live experience. So deeply musical and so raw and .. out there 😀
Most guitar rankings are frankly, crap.
Blackmore is one of the greats. Where he ranks is academic. Fans like myself would argue that Blackmore's influence on guitar players far outweighs any of his contemporaries, but he had a rather unfortunate habit of upsetting people across the industry. Ritchie didn't play the game. and he tends to get overlooked because he rubbed people up the wrong way.
in their day Purple sold as many records as Led Zep. They've continued to perform in a variety of lineups up until today and have never really stayed in 1 box for too long.
Gillan, Paice and Glover are still performing as DP today. Jon Lord has passed away and Ritchie quit the band decades ago.
Yes, obviously ans absolutely true... Deep Purple one of the top 3 bands "god fathers" in Hardrock = fact!!! 💪🙏👍👏👏🤗🤗🤗
Acabas de escuchar a la banda mas grande de la historia del hard rock junto con Rainbow (que seguro desconocerás también) y Child in time es una canción de proporciones bíblicas, una de sus obras maestras. P:D no hagas caso de las listas, (Y menos las americanas) casi todas se basan en parámetros de popularidad y no de calidad, Ritchie Blackmore tal vez sea el mejor guitarra de su generación y un grandísimo músico. Saludos
My favorite band since 1972.😊
It doesn’t matter where they’re ranked, they are all great. And the crowd were told to be still cause it was a live tv performance.
The best reaction for the best band
He heard the song before, he knows the song ,u can tell
The people didn't move because it got recorded, that means in this times mic's and wire everywhere on the floor.
I guess your an american. Zeppelin toured heavily in USA, while Deep Purple had the misfortune to have to cancel two big tours in USA due to hepatitis. When they become the largest group in the world the singer and bass player quit. Then they had 11/2 year when the guitarist quit and therefore they really didn't break America and are heavily underrated there. And radio is extremely important in America and only Smoke and a couple of other songs got good airplay, so that's why americans know so little about them.
You never heard this before because you live in the USA.
I bet you never heard of Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham, Billy Thorpe, Cold Chisel .......
Watch Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham doing “ Something is Wrong With My Baby”...... a live version with Diesel on guitar and backing vocals ( from Hey Hey its Saturday ).
Then watch a 20 years younger Jimmy Barnes doing the live “Wild Thing” with Cold Chisel.... ( the purest FERAL rock you will ever see ).
Always live with these people.....Farnham with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra rivals the best of Pink Floyd live.
Then the American guitar legend Joe Bonamassa playing guitar for Jimmy Barnes in studio..... “ Stone Cold in Love with You”
America is just discovering this gold now, 20 to 50 years later.
Try "Burn" live by them.
Great reaction video, really enjoyed it. To answer some of the questions - Deep Purple were not as popular as Zeppelin and Sabbath in the USA but in Europe they were just as big, possibly even bigger. Every single member of the band is regarded as one of the best in rock music history. The crowd was silent because this was a TV show recording and they were instructed not to make any noise and thus keep the recording clear.
Loving your reaction man I grew up listening to this band and still love them
It was probably filmed at the BBC they didn't allow much movement in the background. ✌️ ❤️ 🇬🇧
Your appreation for their look made my day! Thank you 👍
The hated Vietnam War pulled a lot out of our musicians.
Many antiwar songs were pulled from the radio at that time, went underground FM
LOL, when Ian Gillen hit E5 and the real high A note, your head exploaded 🤯
Great performance. Don't forget about Frank Zappa and Stevie Vai.
Deep Purple is definitely the best rock band of all time. The show was done in radio station and conditions of entry was the audience had to sit still and be quiet
And don't forget status quo English 12 bar boogie band formed in 62 still going today 60 years later, more hit's than stones and Beatles put together ......
Yes, he IS like the greatest keyboard player ever.
It was a tv performance and the audience would have been told to be quiet until the end of the song. The top three regarded keyboardists are Jon Lord, Reck Wakeman and Keith Emerson, Jon is my particular favourite. Purple have sold around 150 million albums, not bad for being underrated. Great performance, but the best version of this song is on the live album Made In Japan, check it out. I believe Purple to be as mighty as Zeppelin and better live. That live version of Smoke On The Water isn't great, heavily edited by the tv company. Definitely check out their live album and the albums In Rock, Fireball, Machine Head, and Burn. One of the biggest differences between Purple and Zeppelin is that the latter had a fantastic manager, whereas Purple's were awful.
Yes John Lord is the greatest of all time.
