That lead that Ritchie plays beginning at 7:09 exemplifies his genius and why for me he is the greatest guitarist of all time

[@2007Tarkus]

You will never ever see another band as good as this one, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath this lot would blow them to peices what a fuckin band

[@ezsmith3765]

No way DP beats LZ Page >>> Blackmore

[@Zuppete]

Totally agree!

[@Rigbysalad]

@@ezsmith3765This song is a bad example of blackmores skill. If you dive deep into some DP songs you’ll see how good blackmore really is

[@joelombrdo]

Even Page in a recorded interview said Ritchie was a better lead guitarist than him. Look it up on KZbin. Page should know.

[@cosmiccat6708]

Despite the technical difficulties you were experiencing Pope, lol, you still got right into this amazing performance by one of the best rock bands ever, Deep Purple. Richie Blackmore man, just one of the best. Your reaction videos are always fun and cool to watch...this one's in the top three! You should definitely react to more of this band. "Fireball", "Black Knight" are just two of the early 70's singles and then there's even earlier ones called, "Why Didn't Rosemary" and "Wring that Neck", the latter of which may be part of this concert, though I'm not sure. Peace.

[@jalkabre5904]

Ritchie is my GOAT. Classical to Musical Nut Job, he can make music out of noise.

[@JimmyRJump]

A studied improvisation that was later used and improved upon at the end of "Space Truckin", "Mandrake Root" being a song from the first Deep Purple line-up.

[@raymondcote2913]

You picked one of my favorite films of Purple killing it. Been a fan since 1970, just saw them 3 times this year. The best. Thanks for the clip.

[@79BlackRose]

That was one of the best reactions to anything I have ever seen! And part of it was your own camera going AWOL, like it was losing it's mind! Deep Purple are a force of nature, particularly with this early 70s line up. You didn't know whether to be shocked or laugh your ass off. So you did both which was awesome! I will see if I can find the other one you mentioned from New York. I have subbed man!

Great reaction to one of the world's greatest bands - they were so 'far out' they were back in!

[@danacasey8543]

My dad was in the Navy and Commanding Officer of a Navy installation at an Air Force Base. He was sitting in his office and saw a huge purple plane landing on the runway outside his office window. He laughed and remembered that I had tickets to see Deep Purple that night in concert. I think it was 1974 and I was 18. Well, their equipment collapsed the stage, and they cancelled the concert. Bummer! I did see them in 2017 when my son took me for my birthday!

[@ponytrekker8996]

The concert wasn’t canceled that was the end of purples set California jam, 1974 Black Sabbath also performed . ELP came on at midnight about two hours late. .

[@danacasey8543]

@@ponytrekker8996 It wasn't in California. I was living in Albuquerque, New Mexico, although I would have loved to have been at California jam!

[@ponytrekker8996]

@@danacasey8543 oh, sorry, got a little mixed up understood

[@Paul-qo1hb]

California Jam 1974 where Ritchie Blackmore wrecked Havoc. Busting up an ABC television camera by putting his stratocaster's neck through the lense(something like that) and having his Marhall stacks blowing up. All this while eluding authorities in a helicopter. Legendary imho.

[@rd9219]

Just think, My Friend, those audience members who are still with us are in their mid to late SEVENTIES!!!!! 😂😂😂😂

[@lindakessler8768]

Holy crap, I've never seen that performance. He and Jimi must of had a bet who could outdo each other. 💜👍🤙

[@ninoorjon]

This is what fans do.😆

[@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace]

Have to say.. kudos to you man... Stumbled on you looking for reactions to my all time favorite band, Deep Purple... You've done most of their classic tunes... and a few more obscure tracks like Rat Bat Blue and this!! Thank you man and if you want some suggestions I have a TON!!!

[@houseoftone8939]

Hey Pope, thanks for putting this up, never seen this performance, Blackmore was my guitar idol in the 70's and I still can't play "Pictures of home" properly. Deep Purple forever!

[@bobnoxious8794]

Purple rocking the house

[@darrendawson4800]

Jon lord plugged his organ into a Marshall Amp to give it a harsh brash sound! No other keyboard player ever did that sounds so cool!

[@Steven91637]

Amazing Primetime Mark II Deep Purple. The best Rockband ever existed

[@bobhope3716]

I highly recommend Deep Purple's live album titled Made in Japan ! That would make a good album review !

[@lesblatnyak5947]

Pope-alicous Doing the Purple Acid .

[@WillyAffentranger-jb1oi]

Thanks for that. I've neeeever seen this concert since i've born, and that's 1961. Greatings to you from ibach-schwyz, victorinox manifactary country, you guess wright, switzerland. Bye

Superb Pope glad u liked 👍

This is when purple were a great jamm band..

All of a sudden got an urge to do some Windowpane, weather is perfect for a trip.

[@georgeprice4212]

Camera: nope….no last word on this. (Falls over)

[@VIDSTORAGE]

That song is from their first album when Rod Evans was the lead vocalist , it is gritty as a dirty rag

[@purelayermanplayer4062]

Dayam😂 great tune great reaction & them chick's freaking out😅

[@blackmore7777fan]

Keep in mind, that video is 53 years old - those are somebody's grandmothers now! ha ha ha!!

Did you watch the performance with the Philharmonic? Is amazing

[@puncht37]

Now you`re goin deep cut, Pope.

[@ingridgabelo2934]

Gracias querido Pope!! Me encantan tus reacciones!! ❤

[@POPE.]

thank you 🙏🏿

[@christopherbarnett6098]

Very Doors inspired. Or is it only me who heard it? The mighty Deep Purple. Awsome. Peace out.

[@IshadaKatzteilov]

Doors had nothing to do with it. Deep Purple could play circles around the Doors in their sleep.

[@christopherbarnett6098]

@@IshadaKatzteilov The clue to what I meant was in the word "inspired". Also I did say is it only me? I was meaning the Hammond organ played by both Jon Lord & Ray Manzarek. I bet if my life depended on it & I had to choose. I'd say you are a Deep Purple fan. Lighten up. Peace out.

[@IshadaKatzteilov]

@@christopherbarnett6098 Ok so I hate the Doors.

[@christopherbarnett6098]

@@IshadaKatzteilov really? Nothing stood out. I couldn't pick anything up in your message about your true feelings regarding the Doors. Lo! We all have reactions to either certain bands or artists. Or particular songs. There are 2 songs that have a really negative response from me. All part of musics large tapestry. Peace out.

[@strettoasino9006]

Don't feel bad, Camera's have a history with misbehaving when Ritchie Blackmore is soloing...

[@WillyAffentranger-jb1oi]

Is that a university concert?

[@richardcampbell2261]

If you think that this video is WILD wait till you see the Richie Blackmore Incident at the end of the California Jam (1974) where Richie literally BLEW-UP The Stage. Don't just watch the video, read the notes about the concert.

[@erichmartin4530]

Nicceeeeee

[@russellmorgan5611]

Allan Holdsworths' "Endomorph". Nice choise for intro music. Mk2 Purple are the best of all their incarnations.

[@fortiterinresuaviterinmodo5549]

1970 awesome!

[@grahamjeffries4566]

Ritchie still got that guitar

[@georgeprice4212]

No he doesn’t. There’s a video from a couple of years after this performance and you can see the body literally has a crack in it. He demolished it on that particular tour.

[@anthonyblakely399]

Just heard Yes new song, "Mirror of The Sky" from their new album, "Mirror in The Sky," it is a great song...not as great as their 70's Masterpieces....but really good....there is no Jon Anderson due to illness or Chris Squire due to death or Alan White or Rick Wakeman, but Steve Howe is on this album and a lot of talented musicians that give you that Yes signature quality!!! Check it out!!! It is Fire!!!

[@queefreak666]

It's not YES, it's a Yes cover band

[@eugenesouza3819]

You had to be there to really appreciate it I think. It was all new.

[@ponytrekker8996]

Those speakers Ritchie threw down at the end was just empty cabinets.. dummy speakers.

[@georgeprice4212]

I heard that they were still loaded, but damaged in some way beyond repair.

[@gaylemitchell5881]

Where are u at? Come on with the 🎵

[@compnnburns8831]

Very impressive but Ritchie Blackmore's guitar theatrics were after Jimi Hendrix had already trodden that path so feel a bit copycat to me (check out Jimi Hendrix Experience at Monterey in 1967), that said not many guitarists could do this to strat (intentional mistake) with!

[@eddhardy1054]

But then didn't Hendrix copy Townsend?

[@georgeprice4212]

⁠According to Pete, Hendrix didn’t COPY Pete entirely, but did enough of what Townshend did…although the burning of the Strat was something nobody saw coming.

[@georgrendl7682]

Either I missed something in this video or where was your reaction???? And yes, this is Deep Purple...

[@georgeprice4212]

The camera gave up before he could give a full on reaction, but you could tell that he was blown away.

[@brianshockledge3241]

Sounds really dated now and an act stolen from The Who but I still like it.

[@georgeprice4212]

Just wait until you see the Mk IV lineup’s performance at California Jam 1974. You think THIS was wild….Ritchie LITERALLY blew up the stage!

[@DrPenguin-ci3sc]

Dude you should listen to the song childlike faith in chilhood's end by van der graff generator
