Deep Purple - Hey Hey It's Saturday rehearsals April 1999

This is very interesting in depth look at the machinations by which TV networks function in regard to time limits and the like - Deep Purple had been asked to modify the length of the classic 'Smoke On The Water'. In itself a ridiculous concept and clearly one that hadn't been asked before - and why should they according to Ian Gillan who rightly points out the futility of such a stupid request. But its great and its up close and personal in April 1999.

Deep Purple forever!

By that time I thought they were dinosaurs, but looking at Lord and Paice here I think they were pretty young gentlemen still. Those were the days my friend!))

Imagine how much rare video footage exists!😁👍🏻

[@inna.friend]

Такие видео ценнее,чем подготовленные интервью и т.п. В них вся суть истории DP💝 Спасибо,дорогой автор. 💙💛✌ p.s. непривычно не слышать реакции публики после игры...😚👏

glad i watched the band live on the big breakfast years ago. The guys really enjoyed that performance and so did the fans. They played live in the garden / tony uk

my favourite band besides the Beatles. All great players. Steve Morse fitted in well with the band

You're also on wrong video man. This is Smoke On The Goddam Water not Soldier Of Fuckin' Fortune.

Soldier of Fortune is also a great one from 1974

This really shows how great the individual musicians are. Doing what's exactly right for the song.

I have no idea why Bruce is involved in these conversations.
I love this band, and these guys, more than almost anything.

Это у тебя советские стереотипы, Валентин. Что где-то там прекрасное далёко и какие-то другие люди. Люди разное пишут, а ты видишь то, на что сам настроился.
