At the concert they introduced this as "a slowww song, maybe a little too slow for some ", people started getting up to head for refreshments, it started and they sat back down or started dancing. Laughed my butt off! A sense of humor is always good.
U R right bro! No compromises. Each second HardRock at its finest cind! Living wreck very good 2! For me best Band all times - till 2005. First time I hear Axel Rudi Pell..... (Casbah, Hot wheels, Ride the rainbow....; 50 super tracks)
Very few bands could go from a balls to the wall guitar intro, to a brief mellow keyboard interlude, than switch gears with the entire band going back to the pedal to the metal all over again. Classic rock at its finest.
Don't misunderstand me, I love some Led Zeppelin songs, but, even if Communication Breakdown is a GREAT song, THIS is PURE and FIRST heavy metal, in my opinion. The whole song is built in a way you can't forget, it's full of class and fury at the same time.
There is no doubt that I enjoy Deep Purple today as much as yesterday. I was an awkward pre-teen when I first heard this and now I am in my late fifties and I have also had the privilege of singing Deep Purple songs the last two years in Karaoke clubs all over central Arkansas. In fact I decided to try an all Deep Purple tribute tonite at my favorite club in North Little Rock.
Fuckin' mad! The brutal introduction of this song with its pure and raw power sounds like an debris-avalanche cast in music... then the gentle, magic organ cadenza by Mr Jon Lord creates an interesting medival mood. I like the middle part a lot with the great duel between Blackmores guitar and jons organ. Quite jazzy and dynamic.
Many of the musicians had studied Classical music and it just evoked that type of sound naturally, thinking of Keith Emerson, Jon Lord, Ian Anderson, amongst others.
Apparently according the the Japanese Deep Purple was considered one of the greatest influence on rock bands in Japan. Japanese rock bands and even RPG composers admitted how heavily influenced everywhere by Deep Purple. It was quite common for Japanese composers to own hundreds of western rock albums. Thats the beauty of music. How one style from across the world can make its way to a foreign country to start a new movement of music.
They have given us stars like Lord, Blackmore, Gillan and Coverdale, given birth to bands like Whitesnake n' Rainbow (which put the late great Dio on the map), their history surrounds the entire bringing up of rock n' roll. Doesn't matter how many albums who has sold, how many Grammys who got or whether they have been inducted in the joke R&R Hall of Fame, Deep Purple along with Black Sabbath stands as the two greatest bands in Rock/Metal.
For people who like their rock _hard._ Personally I'm really only listening to Roger Glover in this track. For me he owns it from about 2:45 onward. Glover was the quiet achiever of the band and gets little credit for all the production work he did that really established the Deep Purple sound.
That song's from 1970....53 years old- and THAT energy and enthusiasm....RESPECT!!! Great still having bands like that around....

What a change from 69 to 1970! This is metal on steroids.
It's like they announced to the world with the IN ROCK album "Greetings. We are Deep Purple and this is how rock and roll is done!"
+James K. as every rock and roll band tries 2...-not bad.

Jawoll ^^

after 50 years, this song still very very intense!!
This song makes me feel like I could store heat in a single point of an object but I need to get in a range of 10 cm to do that
I might need something to “pop” and get rid of that heat; possibly bubbles.

First heavy metal song ever...
And a great tribute to American music. Of every genre. LYRICS!

+Thomas Kaba why were so many bands in the early 70s into that "medieval mood"? What triggered that?
Many of the musicians had studied Classical music and it just evoked that type of sound naturally, thinking of Keith Emerson, Jon Lord, Ian Anderson, amongst others.
First song i ever listen when i was 10 years old! Forever in my hart!
This rocks!!!!! What a great band!!!!
After all theses years still outstanding, amzing, brilliant!
SPEED KING IS COOL AND AWESOME IN MILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF WAYS
Hey kids, do you think today's rock n roll is heavy? Listen to this!!!!!!
i love the laughter at the end............

Coverdale was ok. The ruination of Purple was Glenn Hughes. Even Tommy Bolin was really good.
Fuckin' Blackmore! Fuckin" Purple! Fuckin' Rainbow! Pure Fuckin' Genious!
best intro ever
fireball would be the best intro
Хорошее качество звучания. Спасибо челу, выложившему запись.
see me fly iam a speed king see me fly
INIZIO DEVASTANTE!!!
Bir hard rock efsanesi deep Purple
Hello,
Born at the Right Time
For people who like their rock _hard._ Personally I'm really only listening to Roger Glover in this track. For me he owns it from about 2:45 onward. Glover was the quiet achiever of the band and gets little credit for all the production work he did that really established the Deep Purple sound.
Amen to that!
I rock so hard I'm a rock human.
In Rock features the best of Roger Glover as a bass player, no doubt of that!
TheThirdMan he was a beast on the bass
Takes me back to "hippie hill" Golden Gate Park!!!!!
This band puts cover zeppelin to the ground
Show Me That Riff But yet LED zeppelin will always be remembered in history and this band wasn’t lol
Why that? Because people can see what's best ;)
VercettiMP5 yep
Who its Led Zeppelin? ;-D
Both bands were astoundingly good. Why do you feel it necessary to diss one in order to praise the other?
At 0:52, it's all like, "The songs over now; you can go home... NOT!"
The best
their best album for sure imho
Good Golly Said Little Miss MOLLY ...
seems to be a tank who just thrown away 10 streets in the air!
MERARYARYARYARYARYAA
Ancora oggi, nel 2018, l'effetto di questo brano è devastante!
This song is so fucking good
最近..ディープパープルの（スピードキング)はこのヨーロッパチューンの曲ばかりが動画化されてるよね..いきなり伴奏なしに爆発💥して..曲がスタートするかつての（日本ヴァージョン)の方がぼくは好きだ。前置きが長い感じがしてならないんだよね..。それにしても...この曲の途中経過のギターソロと...伴奏部分のスリル感はすごいよね...。何度聴いても鳥肌が立つ...1970年代にこれだけの（HM 音楽)が発想された事の偉業と凄みを今でも感じる....。BLUE OYSTER CULT にMC5...CCR にBLACK SABBATH ...それにALICE COOPER ..いい時代だったね。
IWas Build For Speed!
このLPが発売された当時、ギターとキーボードのイントロはなかった。
いきなり始まったから、結構衝撃的だったのを覚えてる。
FUCK YEAH
Woah woah there fella, I love Deep Purple and all, but Led Zeppelin is #1 and probably always will be the greatest rock band of all time.
Dream Theater!
Purple is better than led zeppelin because purple mixes very style of rock music.Listen "Stormbringer" and "who do we think we are ".
To me LZ, DP and BS are the (un)holy trinity of Rock.
Heavy metal was born by the guitar of iommy, the drums of bonham, the voice of plant, the lyrics of ozzy and the speed of blackmore
Butler wrote most, if not all of the lyrics for Sabbath. All the same, that sounds like a great band!
Elmris Barbieri u left out blue cheer and the late-era beatles
Hahahahaha, lyrics of Ozzy, hahahahaha
My brother, Metal was invented when The Beatles released "Shes So Heavy".
10 cm
Is that a motherfucking metric unit reference
Rorik Savant no that's a neon genesis evangelion reference
Floyd and others are better bands, but nobody out rocks Deep Purple.
daveaw69 led zeppelin
No!
