This song was at the heart of the original breakup. Ian Gillan admitted that he just couldn't sing this day after day, but Richie Blackmore just started playing it, so he had no choice. Unlike a keyboard or a guitar, the vocal chords just can't keep slamming out high A at that intensity. Ossie Osborne has a unique voice that fit Black Sabbath, Robert Plant was the voice that Led Zepplin needed; but I think Gillan had the most versatile of them all.

You can tell what notes are being played ou sung by ear. Besides you are enthusiastic and really enjoying a very different kind of music than yours. Classical musicians very often look down on rock musicians. You do not.

George Martin included a wonderful string arrangement in Eleanor Rigby, and of course you have the score at the end of A Day in the Life. Beyond the orchestration on their albums, the band played live with an orchestra in June '67 when they introduced 'All You Need is Love' to a global TV audience. Must have been a bit nerve-wracking, even for the Fab Four. That would have been around the time that the Moodys were in the studio, recording Days of Future Passed. The album was released in November '67. Some notable others: One I didn't know about... the Siegel-Schwall Band performed William Russo’s Three Pieces for Blues Band and Symphony Orchestra with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in July '68. The Nice performed Keith Emerson’s Five Bridges Suite with the Sinfonia of London in October '69 - a couple of weeks after Deep Purple's concert with the Royal Philharmonic. Jethro Tull did a TV performance with an orchestra in '70.

Blackmore, the original shredder but whose playing is so much more than shredding, so much more than the guitarists of today. But, Ritchie was the pioneer, the inspiration for the likes of Malmsteen, Satriani, Petrucci et al Glover, criminally underrated bassist, the glue that held the band together on stage. He laid down perfect lines for Ritchie and Jon to work off of and could instinctively anticipate where Ritchie's playing was going and then lay down the appropriate line. Oh, and he often matched playing the riffs note for note with Ritchie.

This lineup had a lot of personality clashes - Ritchie Blackmore is legendary for being difficult to work with. He currently performs with wife Candace Knight in their band Blackmore's Night which does a lot of English folk/madrigal music.

I’m not much of a live album guy myself, I still personally think the studio version is superior. You get all the energy, and all the great vocals. But it is impressive to hear how note accurate they are live. Gillan is a god.

I thought I was alone in preferring studio versions (mostly). I'm glad you said it. I find myself listening for the perfection of the original which is ingrained in my mind. I really wish Doug had reacted to the studio version although, in fairness, this is a damn good performance!

@@Just-a-Thought. I kinda have it a bit the same way, and then not. I like the perfection of a skillfull made Studio Album, but in the Live recordings you get the honesty and how well these sublime musicians play together (with or without drugs) and without 50 retakes of a solo. Especial music from this era in time where the Quality of studio recording was far from todays often too clean sound. No matter what music Style your listening too and wether you like it or not how much experimenting with various kind of drugs influenced many of the biggest Rock icons that we have had, most of them actually WAS on another plane of existence when they made and performed some of their most iconic songs and shows 😂

@@mrdali67 thanks for your thoughts. I agree with everything you've said. But when I watch these reaction videos I want them to hear the perfection that totally entranced me, hooked me, the first time I listened in a mate's bedroom in the early 70s. The organ intro on the album causes a physical reaction that I feel inside. It couldn't have been written better. I need to hear it that way to recreate that same magic every time and I wanted Doug to feel that instead of similar notes kind of played in the wrong order. Nice sound, but I expect the sequence of notes that's imprinted in my brain. I'm probably not explaining this well and have alienated anybody who reads it but this song is an all time favourite, something unique actually. I feel the same about the guitar solo but I've said enough 😄

@@Just-a-Thought. I am a keyboardist myself and learned th organ from the mid 70's the classic way, reading notation and it surely wasn't rock I was braught up with in my early youth .. (mostly german Sclager music that my parrents braught home from Germany. I have always had like a photographic memory for music and even I can hardly play a 4 chord Rhythm on a guitar I can play a guitar solo perfectly in my head after a couple times listening which has always given me problems when trying to learn the guitaris to play the correct solo like heard on the studio recording. After all it IS a Solo .. It's not supposed to be exact the same every time 😆I was mostly inspired by Jazz and "Swing" music from my youth, but when I grow up and much to late introduced to "the dark side" .. these 60's and 70's bands like Deep Purple and Allman brothers I was totally blown away with both the music and how brilliant musicians they are(were), and learning about all the tragic histories about many of them. John Lord was absolutely phenomenal with a Hammond, and imagine how the world would have been if Duane Allman hadn't died at such a young age. Perhaps one of the best guitarist that never got to show his true potential. But all of these guys were true equilibrists on their instruments

I smiled when you said you were doing this to hear Blackmore, knowing how deep we are into the song before he gets his spotlight. And I guffawed when you were admiring Gillan's vocals, knowing what was to come. All those ultra-high notes are why they haven't done the song since 2005, btw. Ian still puts on a great show, but he'd need a step-ladder to get that high nowadays. If you want DP songs that are really all about Ritchie from note #1, try "Highway Star" or "Burn". (The latter is from after Ritchie convinced Lord and Paice [the band's founders] to fire Gillan [he and Blackmore could *never* get on] and Glover and brought in David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes to replace them. Intriguingly enough, Hughes *can* still hit the high notes in "Burn", which is pretty impressive since he's currently 70 years old and, as noted, Gillan had to retire this song at age 60.)
@lynnephillips91992 жыл бұрын
I agree. Ian realised many years ago he wasn't able to reach the heights he used to - and good on him for making that decision. One of the most brilliant heavy rock bands ever. I also saw Glenn Hughes a few years ago doing Deep Purple songs. He's still got the vocal range but he didn't do Child in Time.

I saw them several times live. "In Rock" was one of the first albums I bought when I got a sound system at aged 16. Another great early heavy rock band was Uriah Heep. (They've been mentioned many times in chat.) Their keyboardist, Ken Hensley, was the Tuomas Holopainen of his day. It's been requested many times, but their track "Salisbury" - off the album of the same name - would be great to hear on this channel.

While most people seem to want to credit Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and Led Zeppelin as the beginnings of hard rock, I've always added Uriah Heep to that. To my mind, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple sort of laid the template for the solid "wall of sound" approach to rock music, while Led Zeppelin and Uriah Heep explored the mix of heavy and light. Seems like back in the 70's, others expressed the same idea. Somewhere along the way, Uriah Heep was forgotten and it's a shame. Though, I would say I lean more to the "Magician's Birthday" and "Demons and Wizards" period, myself.
