More about "Highway Star"
This song was born on a tour bus going to Portsmouth in 1971 when a reporter asked the band how they wrote songs. To demonstrate, guitarist Ritchie Blackmore grabbed an acoustic guitar and began playing a riff consisting of a single "G" repeated over and over, while vocalist Ian Gillan improvised lyrics over the top. The song was refined and was performed that same night. The song first appears on the 1972 LP Machine Head. The track remains one of the band's staples in live concerts, and was the set opener even before it was released on any album.
The very first live version released, recorded live for German TV program Beat-Club in September 1971, is featured on the History, Hits & Highlights '68-'76 DVD. It is the opening track on the live albums Nobody's Perfect (1988), Come Hell or High Water (1994), and From the Setting Sun… (In Wacken) (2015). The most famous live version is featured on the 1972 live album Made in Japan. The Guardian said, "Blackmore’s playing is like a force of nature on the Made in Japan version; those slashing chords in the intro, and that amazing solo featuring the distinctive neo-classical descending runs, combining the spirits of Bach and Jimi Hendrix."

Lyrics:
Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power big fat tires
And everything
I love it and I need it
I bleed it
Yeah it's a wild hurricane
Alright hold tight
I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my girl
I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl
She stays close on every bend
Oooh she's a killing machine
She's got everything
Like a moving mouth body control
And everything
I love her I need her
I seed her
Yeah she turns me on
Alright hold on tight
I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my head
I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head
Now that I'm on the road again
Oooh I'm in heaven again
I've got everything
Like a moving ground an open road
And everything
I love it and I need it
I seed it
Eight cylinders all mine
Alright hold on tight
I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power big fat tires
And everything
I love it and I need it
I bleed it
Yeah it's a mad hurricane
Alright hold on tight
I'm a highway star
I'm a highway star
I'm a highway star

One of the greatest songs of all time. Machine Head is a solid album!
Solid? It is a masterpiece!
The song the organ player has been waiting for
Awesome. Had a little singalong there. Cheers : D
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
Man that solo in unison. Just fantastic
Thank you!
That silver and gold combo looks so good.
It does!
Man that brings back memories of Lakeview Jam at the WJ church hall. I'm so old.
That is so badass.
Nice playing guys. It looked like you had real fun with that one. Also, very brave to take on such a fast paced piece from Mr Blackmores outstanding back catalogue ... when Ritchie was on form during his 70's DP & Rainbow era, he was untouchable.
A versão do Disco !
Very good!
Why isn't the Hammond going thru a Marshall?
Why isn't it out front in the mix?
Fuck Yeah!
Wrist motion vs Elbow motion 1:53
Whats better?
@@andy100hp Neither is "better". Different joints can be used for different pick escape motions. The key bit is to determine if the line calls for upstroke escape (USX )or down stroke escape (DSX) or combination of both. Check out Troy Grady' Cracking the Code for more info.

THANK YOU!
Awesome guys :-) Organ seemed more pronounced on the record but still a great cover. Maybe work on another DP song....Burn maybe??
playng palm mutes on neck pickup) lol
First
Big fat string and Ery thing
It would be nice to have the full song with lyrics next time.
I can't say for sure, but I don't think they've ever fully played through any song.
No organ solo smh
drummer couldn't hang...
Too young to really feel it, and you can't get the tone out of a transistor box. Thanks for trying, though.
"Too young to really feel it..." -- So, what IS the age requirement?
@@TavisAllen so I guess young people can do it, too...but this version isn't it. One girl on RUclips plays with a backing track but she nailed the lead tone. Check her out. And there's a girl bassist that does the bass part like nobody I've ever seen, except Glover himself. I didn't mean to be snide about it.
@@camilo1455 " I didn't mean to be snide about it." -- I get you. They're having fun, but, I agree, it doesn't feel like they're going all-out.
