Deep Purple- Burn (REACTION//DISCUSSION)

[@volpeverde6441]

DEEP PURPLE'S BEST ALBUM BY FAR....

[@davidschecter5247]

One of the greatest hard rock songs ever. Yes, Ian Paice is one of the GIANTS! So much fun watching you get knocked out by this performance. Oh Lord, that Lord!

[@TheCornishCockney]

The legend that is Ian Paice,in my top 3 of all time (bonzo and moon). Driving Deep Purple for nearly 60 years.

[@Silber7]

You could basically take out Ian Paice's drum track and perform it as a drum solo. This was the first album Deep Purple did with singers David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes (also on bass, higher voice) instead of Ian Gillan - a bit of a shift in style. Also first introducing these fantasy lyrics... But Ritchie Blackmore and Jon Lord on guitar and organ at the hight of their powers - rythm, lead in improvisation and semi-classical arrangements... Such a relentless track, and one of their best for sure

[@tinypurplefishesrunlaughin8052]

“Perfect Strangers “ I rented a cabin in Oklahoma and learned the organ part with a thrift store Hammond w/internal Leslie. Played it late at night as I saw lights come on miles away. It was epic.

[@MissAstorDancer]

That's a great story right there! Love "Perfect Strangers"!

[@cosmicman621]

...wood-shedding...

[@Drummingvulture]

Remember, new bassist, Glenn Hughes, also did lead vocals on this album. On the song "Burn", he sings the two choruses. I believe this is the first album Jon Lord used synthesizers on. The closing song, "A" 200", is basically him showing off what he'd been learning on his new found toy. Man, I bought this in 8-track when it came out. At the time I was a sophmore in high school, playing trumpet and drums in the high school band. But when I first popped this tape into my player and Ian Paice's drumming jumped out of the speakers and assailed my ears, I knew that the trumpet was gonna be taking a back seat to drumming. Almost fifty years later and it still holds true. I still toot the horn every now and then, but drumming will always be my number one musical passion, thanks to Mr. Paice. Great song, great album. I would recommend "Sail Away" next. Or maybe "Mistreated". Both are top shelf DP tunes.

[@joelliebler5690]

I saw Glenn with his band at the Westbury Music Fair a few years back and his voice still hit all the high notes. Amazing!

[@cosmicman621]

...rock n roll🤘🤘🤘

[@SylviusTheMad]

Glenn auditioned for the band as a singer. If David Coverdale hadn't come out of nowhere, Glenn Hughes would have been Purple's lead singer.

[@jerrywoods4066]

It's my favorite tune with the drumming, always was

[@Drummingvulture]

@@SylviusTheMad I didn't know that. I DID know he was the vocalist/bassist for Trapeez (spl?). Now I have a little more useless rock trivia in my head. I like that. Thank you.

[@ronniefarnsworth6465]

One of the Very "Best" Hard Rock songs Ever by one of the Greatest Hard Rock Bands The Great Deep Purple !!! Especially after their Big lineup change !! : D

[@richg0404]

I LOVE Deep Purple. Especially the Ian Gillan version of Deep Purple but this is my absolute favorite Deep Purple song.

[@tomekgulash]

This song is most def. must to hear live. Glenn does amazing job on his parts.

[@jamespaivapaiva4460]

J.P. be nimble, J.P. be quick, add some fire, and light the wick. Monday morning drum up some heat, put on Deep Purple, and play and repeat. Lord! Those keyboards are all over the place, One Ian singing, and one Ian drumming at a furious Paice! Then you have Glover holding down the bass, and Ritchie slinging a guitar that will melt your face! I would feel like a worm if I don't thank you for this 'Burn', hope my little poetic trick won't leave you feeling sick, Sometimes I know it can be a little thick, so I will stop now and not be a duck(?). Oh well, Peace.

You're not terrific?

[@markspooner1224]

@@SpaceCattttt That's not for me to say but it has been said. Do you like Cats In Space (the band)?

[@dexiomine1232]

One of my favourite Deep Purple tunes. That classical-inspired circle of fifths like progression immediatly captivated me and stuck in my head for days. I love how the organ solo goes into it and how it breaks down into the main groove again at the end. The way you looked during this part really mirrored mine when I first listened to it!

[@carloshenriqueleiros6201]

The best Deep Purple album ever, IMHO. Tanx, Justin. Burn is a supreme pearl!!!

[@scottgelb2650]

This was my first live concert. I was a budding rock drummer and Ian Paice was my hero.

[@chrisbanks5925]

Another good analysis - I saw Deep Purple live at least six times in the early 1970s and they were such an exciting band.

[@TheCornishCockney]

And DAMN LOUD !!

[@garyarnett1220]

Purple has been my favorite group since 1968. They released their 22nd studio album in 2021 , and Paice has been the drummer on every single one.

[@astragalusson]

JP: This is a cooldown time. This is a relaxation, chill, breathe in, breath out session. Also JP: *Turns on BURN* :D

[@JustJP]

🤣

[@joepegel]

This is the album that made me realize I like hard rock. For something a little more bluesy from this album, check out "Sail Away". And for something a lot more bluesy, check out "Mistreated".

[@volpeverde6441]

SAIL AWAY....SPACE TRUCKIN'....YOU FOOL NO ONE and RAT BAT BLUE are purple's best riffs by far....

[@timanderson5417]

This album made me realize I need to rehearse!

[@theheepster]

One of the best Deep Purple songs, with outstanding drumming by Ian Paice.

[@scifimonkey3]

One of my favourite Deep Purple songs along with Highway star. Such a blast to play in the car but with the risk of picking up a ticket for speeding and beating the SH1T out of the steering wheel.

[@eddhardy1054]

JP this is my favourite Deep Purple song. Everything about it is phenomenal, the guitar, the drums, the keyboards, the vocals. 😉😊

[@jerrywoods4066]

It's comparable to my favorite highway star. Love them both

[@eddhardy1054]

You have taste Sir. Between 1970 and 1974 Deep Purple produced some cracking album openers: Speed King, Fireball, Highway Star, Woman From Tokyo, Burn & of course Stormbringer. Epics everyone 😊😊😊

[@jeffschielka7845]

Hey Justin! DEEP PURPLE!! Burn kicks total ass!!! Turn it up!🔈🔉🔊🔊🔊🔥💜

[@kengregory6026]

In the summer of '79 I was 15 and attended the opening of the Powerhouse Heavy Metal Roadshow at The Stonehouse in Hatfield,Hertfordshire (no longer there).Basically, a rock music disco where you could meet girls and listen to great music.It went on for years (Thx Steve and Norm) at various venues but on that opening night, Jon Lord and Bernie Marsden attended (now in Whitesnake). I just remember Bernie was quite short and smiling the whole time, Jon Lord was tall and we had a quick chat.I can't remember what I said but he was so nice, very encouraging and when he left out the back door ,where his gold Rolls Royce was parked, I just thought 'What a great guy!' and ,although he wasn't particularly a hero of mine before, he certainly was after that..RIP John...

[@blackcatcentralmusic]

The song that changed my mind about Deep Purple. The whole band "burns" and especially Jon Lord.

[@spiritwalker1988]

This is simply the best Deep Purple album for me !! I love this band, e love this great album !!

[@astragalusson]

One of the 2 best songs of Deep Purple in my opinion, along with Child In Time.

[@rakeshadhin]

One of the band's best riffs/compositions/performances. Period.

[@scotstevens5263]

California Jam l 74’- what a time, what a show, what a lot of music, people, sun 🤩 fun. So don’t be Lazy and stay in bed.🎶🎶🎶🎸☮️😎

[@palantir135]

Deep Purple was one of the pioneers of Hard Rock. Deep Purple is British and hair metal is American which came much later. You should see the epic drum cover of this song by, then 10 yo, Yoyoka. There are two versions. Look for the solo version, the earlier one.

[@minmodulation]

This was one of my earliest forays into me getting into prog in high school. The solo tradeoffs, classical bits, every band member going off (especially drums), makes it feel like a prog song to me even like 20 years later

[@TheCornishCockney]

Deep Purple,quintessential English rock band is how they were described by Rolling Stone back in 1970. I think they took that as the highest compliment.

[@joelliebler5690]

This shows off every element of the band’s talents!

[@ProgMannen]

Mistreated is one of my favourite songs from deep purple.

[@davidlane1169]

'Ole Audiophile adds Ian Gillian collapes AT the airport while traveling with the band for an overseas tour. (He fell & could not get up, later examination revealed physical collapse from exhaustion due to jaundice from Hepititis.) David Cloverdale was snatched fresh off the street at the last moment. Gillian nearly dies and gets the pink sheet...what fun.

[@psbarrow]

Gillan, not Gillian.

[@didierchapelot5671]

It's also my fave Ian Paice performance in DP. A faultless track.

[@stephendennis8739]

Deep purple one of my favourite groups

[@blitztim6416]

Don’t know if I’ve ever seen you so animated during a song. I saw them on this tour in ‘74. Ian Paige is an amazing drummer. Ritchie and Jon can slip in some Baroque quite easily. Glen Hughes on bass and vocals too. Could you do ‘Mistreated’? There is video of a young Japanese girl playing ‘Burn’ on drums with Ian Paice watching. Pretty cool. Think her name is Yoyoka.

[@jfergs.3302]

Good ol' classic rock, with some flowery Bach-esque synth flourishes thrown in. And with that great riff, another winner from Ritchie, what more do you want. I'd say a great band DP. That said, I can't remember sitting and listening to anything other than 'Made in Japan' for about 20yrs. Hearing this again, i'm not sure why.

[@raymondrocha797]

Sounds like Ian Paice made the song himself! Powerful drumming! You are the man JP!

[@dariiofernando]

classic Purple markIII great reaction

[@Bob.L.Shirley]

Cracking me up with a “cool down” session using Burn, JP!😂😂😂 One of my fave Purple tracks, if not the favorite. Coverdale and Hughes fit in nicely, even if I still missed Gillan, but Jon, Ritchie and... Mr. Paice! All setting fire to their various instruments. There's a live 1974 version of this on YT that you should seek out if only to watch Ian P give that drum kit a workout. It has a large rainbow on the stage. Been hoping you'd get to this track for quite a while and the wait was well worth it!

Weird. I just heard today's Adam Carolla Show and he was telling Ann Wilson of Heart that Burn by Deep Purple is one of his favorite classic rock songs and I had never heard it.

[@Divedown_25]

Relax time and he’s pulling up Burn with Deep Purple. 💥🤠. Love this song, my older brother got all DP album fresh when they arrived. This is a fantastic song. released in 1974, and the first album with David Coverdale on vocals and Glenn Hughes, on bass.

[@BrianR.]

This is one of those tracks that has a quintessential Live version, California Jam 1974. You should check that one out on one of your Live video reactions.

[@gzaq]

Yo I agree with what you said about Jordan Rudess :)

[@cosmiccat6708]

Great reaction. This whole album is worth a listen. Ian Paice is one of my favourite drummers and there is a song called "Fireball", [Oh, another fire related song, lol. I sense a theme here] from the album of the same name, that whenever I listen to it I do the air drumming thing, He just brings it out of you. So much energy. Jon Lord, well he composed and arranged Deep Purple's album, "Concerto For Group And Orchestra", released in 1969, with footage of the live performance available, somewhere? You Tube ? Actually haven't checked that one out. I really should. Anyway, glad you enjoyed this one.[Check out "Fireball"]

Ah yes, "Burn". You come for the organ, you stay for every goddamn thing on it. This is the ultimate hard rock song for me and my favorite Deep Purple track ever. Every second of it is great, what a banger! Now imagine if, when Jon Lord left us, Ian Paice, Don Airey and Glenn Hughes had set up a performance of that song with an orchestra, Rick Wakeman on the synth and Bruce Dickinson on the Coverdal vocals. Oh yeah, you don't have to, because they did. /watch?v=y1EiLP6dD7M&ab_channel=earMUSIC

Gem on the album..."Mistreated". My personal favorite song..."Sail Away". May I recommend you continue with the rest of this album. Note: of all the Deep Purple albums in our household I think this one got played the most. Keep on Rocking Justin!!! Oh final side note: Just seen Rick Wakeman live down here in South Florida. Such a gifted musician.

[@jaybird4093]

David Coverdale was the lead singer of an 80’s hair metal band called Whitesnake. The 80’s were my decade and the band I was in could imitate Whitesnake really well. There isn’t much from that genre that I still like but “Still of the Night” by Whitesnake is one of the exceptions. It has a contrasting middle section which keeps it interesting.

[@pentagrammaton6793]

Oh man, this is a great track on an underrated album. Nice one! 😁

[@pentagrammaton6793]

Sorry, my mistake, I never meant to type "overrated"! D'oh.

[@mickeyhank]

Finally getting to this, LOVE your comments, Justin. You basically echo my feelings about this song! Your good taste is quite evident here. Glad you got to enjoy Ian Paice's work. This song is significant for me because it was THE song that led me to go out and buy my first ever album, at age 14. And later that year see them as my first rock concert (Dio in Elf was the opener, :-)) . It just has so many good, various elements in it. Maybe the best hard rock song ever? And you, sir, are absolutely correct, and I'm super-impressed that you made this observation, that it was breaking new ground and their incorporation of classical music, the way they did it in this song has reverberated through the last 5 decades...thanks for this. For more outstanding Ian Paice drumming on this very album I suggest "Lay Down, Stay Down". And a really cool song on this album is "Sail Away" -- I love it. "You Fool No One" also excellent. Sorry I haven't been to your channel much lately. Super busy but that's no excuse.

[@JustJP]

Thanks Michael! Don't worry about being here enough or not, I'm always around for the breaks in life and you're appreciated when you're here

This is what V3, version of DP? I’ve had a bias against this version of the band because I loved Machine Head so much. Funny thing is, I also had the Medusa album by Trapeze, which I loved. Never realized Glen Hughes was the bridge between… till much much later. Coverdale is pretty good but I missed Ian Gillan… time has smoothed that rough patch. I did buy it. Purple Passages, Machine Head, Burn… 8tracks. Cool wake up song, much needed for the time change, grrr. Peace and picante Music

Deep Purple leave bands like Kiss in the dust. I don't think of Kiss as hair band, but hard rock. Purple is hard rock with LOTS of different influences. They're knowledge of classical, jazz, etc. is what adds a depth to their music. Just like Zeppelin and not enough other bands.

A very divisive album when this came out. The new lineup with David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes turned off a lot fans and critics. I think this is the best album that Mark III lineup did. Granted they only did one more album, which I think is pretty decent as well though not as great as Burn. The rest of the album is fantastic, especially Just Might Take Your Life, Sail Away and Mistreated.

Hi there! How about a reaction to the man Deep Purple wanted to replace Ritchie Blackmore? That would be none other than the Irish firebrand Rory Gallagher! Check out : "A Million Miles Away" from Irish Tour '74, "Philby" from Top Priority, "Bullfrog Blues" from Live in Europe, or "Moonchild" from Calling Card as a place to start. He was voted the #1 musician by Melody Maker in 1971, beating out Clapton and Page at the time. Slash, Brian May and the Edge all were influenced by him and all sing his praises, as does Alex Lifeson. Sadly, he passed away at the age of 47 in 1995, but he has left a rich legacy of blues & rock to be enjoyed.

[@bdcosmo]

Love Ian Gillan so when this came out I was shocked that he and RG were replaced and didn't really like Burn. At first. Over the years it grew on me. The California Jam performance redeemed them for me a good bit. Kinda like the Rabin era Yes it was a big change. But that's what growth is all about!

[@michael-pn9po]

Deep Purple were the genesis of many of the "Metal" genres that we now enjoy - back in the day they were (and still are) just a progressive hard rock band - where progressive in the late 60s early 70s I guess meant "experimental". Their whole sound was based more on a fusion of classical-jazz-rock'n'roll whereas Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath had more of a blues base. Jon Lord retired from the band to write "classical orchestral music" - they had already experimented with the Concerto for Group and Orchestra - they were innovators ... like a lot of the bands from that time.

[@WTFungus]

I remember being in middle school and hoarding my lunch money and my allowance to save up enough to buy this album.

[@jasperdevries1726]

Unpopular opinion: while Jon Lord was great throughout Purple's existence and Ritchie made a leap in prowess starting with In Rock (and was great ever since), Ian Paice was very good to begin with and really kept on growing with the Mk3 and Mk4 albums. I love some of his early work (what drummer would think to play the beat behind Chasing Shadows) and his drumming with Mk2 (moving from Paint It Black to The Mule was a great idea) but the sheer power of Burn or the subtleties of You Fool No One (both on this album) were a happy surprise even for people who thought "Sure, Ian Paice, Deep Purple, great drummer, I know his style". As for Coverdale and Hughes, they helped the band grow in a new direction, but vocally I always preferred Gillan over Coverdale (and I prefer silence over Shrieking Glenn) and on bass I prefer Roger Glover as an anchor for the rest of the band rather than another showy instrumentalist. I do have to say that of all the Deep Purple vocalists I have heard recent material of (so everyone except Rod Evans, but including Joe Lynn Turner), Glenn is the one whose voice has aged most gracefully and he approaches the old material with more taste than he did in the past. Great song. Justin, you may want to check out (in the very little spare time you have) Ian Paice's own drumtribe youtube channel. Two young drummers, Sina and Yoyoka, have both done drum covers of this song and Ian reacted to them with charm, humility and good advice leading to an online collaboration. They say never to meet your heroes, but Ian does come off as very approachable and genuinely pleased to share in the generation-crossing enthusiasm evident.
