    In 1970 while on a tour bus, a reporter was on board. He asked the boys how they write songs. Ritchie picked up a guitar and strummed a G chord over and over. Ian improvised lyrics over the guitar. They arrive at the venue for sound check. They perfect the new song during sound check and performed it live that night. That was Highway Star. That's real excellence in musicianship.

    • @glenchapman3899

      They didn't perfect it. But they did get the basic bones of the thing settled. There is a recording from a show few weeks later, and the lyrics are still not down. With Gillian la la through a few bits. The fact they kept an incomplete song on the set list shows they knew they had something really special in that song

      Yes, they are reharsed, yes they are similar and well thought out, but they are there in the moment, gillan messes the lyrircs, the guitars do a bit of improv... It just always feel, as said by ryan, fun and fresh.

He says he's heard it all before, but Purple is playing at a level very few can match, and the drive and tempo of the song had both George and Ryan rocking out to it.....George should come back to it, I'll bet he would have a different take.

    You described the solo very well, and you also described the whole problem with solos in heavier music in general. One of the biggest "strengths" of those early hard rock/heavy metal bands was they weren't trying to - impress - they were trying to - express - themselves.
    Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, Jimmy Page - they mastered guitar playing so that they can create better music and art. Many guitarists get this wrong, and they confuse playing guitar to make music with playing guitar to push the boundaries of what you can do physically with it.
    That being said, I also like some hardcore shredding lol, but the levels of those early masters of guitar are something else.

    A couple of spectacular Purple songs from the early 70s are Fireball and Speedking.

    The live version off of Live in Japan is killer. In fact, Live in Japan is probably one of, if not the best live album ever. It’s just so damn good.

    Just like how you get into Black Sabbath in the beginning of your Black Sabbath journey the songs that most people recommend are Iron Man, Paranoid which are straight forward metal songs. It’s only when you got deep into their Catalog that you discovered their less known bangers like Snowblind, sweet leaf and Into the Void.
    Same way with Deep Purple there are many songs for you guys to discover like
    Lazy, Burn, Speed King, Mistreated, Black night to name a few. Then I would love to hear your analysis. But good reaction

    This track is a classic all time song by Deep Purple and it contains some of the first early shred guitar and shred organ soloing. The whole band was on fire. Also Ian G on the vocals hitting those high notes is so awesome and he influenced so many rock and metal vocalist who came later. Glad you guys like the track \m/

    Funny thing: The intro was a scene of a group of people playing on a car while they were driving.

    Some cool piece of lore, these guys were so talented, that they wrote this basically while on the tour bus on the way to a show, and hen performed it live for the first time that same night. Ritchie Blackmore was just riding that palm muted string and Gillan came in with that verse vocal melody improvised, and everyone kind of looked at each other. They knew hey had a song and it came out of nowhere.

    Ryan called it. This was on the soundtrack for Rock N' Roll Racing. Crazy fun game and one of the first with licensed music ("Paranoid" is on there, too).
    Totally different vibe, but check out Al Stewart's "Year of the Cat" for another great song with multiple instrumental solos.
