Deep Purple - Child In Time - First Time Reaction

[@isisprimera]

Pasado mañana se presentan en mi país, Chile, esroy tan emocionada 😃❤

[@skateroo19]

Saw them in ‘84; when they did the stop in the middle it was so tight it echoed off the back of the stadium

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@skateroo19 wow! That does sound epic! Glad you got to see them in their prime

[@martinellis7156]

The BBC studio audience were told to keep their response muted and you can see that here. This is a legendary live performance.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@martinellis7156 ah, I'd wondered as much. Definitely an epic live performance, I mean, those vocals!!!

[@docnflossie7351]

They were rushing as the acid took hold ❤

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@docnflossie7351 🤣🤣🤣

[@psbarrow]

It was filmed in Manchester by Granada Television, not the BBC.

[@martinellis7156]

@@psbarrow Thank you for correcting me. The memory fades..

[@michaellomax2]

Glad you chose this one and liked it. My favourite song from the album 'In Rock'. Ian Gillan gave Robert Plant a run for his money with his vocal talents. Fantastic.

[@IBACAbob]

Ian Gillan blows Plant out of the water.

[@guillermojacques6671]

There is a song called "When a blind man cries." Written by Deep Purple but performed live by the singer Ian Gillan with his own band. The vocal quality is close to his performance here. It amazes me that the songs I grew up with are unknown to recent generations. Your enthusiasm for the music is appreciated.

[@pancentricism]

The quality of this video is so incredible that people forget that this was filmed over half a century ago and the idea of filming live music in front of a live audience was very new in those days.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@pancentricism i agree completely. The best comparison I can give it is to watching top of the pops when I was growing up. Live audience recording/filming just adds something to the performance! Loved it!

[@jamiereed2463]

Great reaction! I love Deep Purple! You should do Hard Lovin Man next the official video. It also shows off Ian's amazing screams!

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@jamiereed2463 consider it added to the list 🙂, anything with those kind of vocals and I'm sold!

[@markdrechsler5660]

Ian Paice on drums, another great drummer. DP are most commonly associated with their keyboard player, Jon Lord. Another deep rabbit hole.

[@ronaldwilson9525]

Don’t forget Blackmore on guitar. A true guitar hero

[@lawrencesantana7253]

I like your reaction to this song. Your funny. Im glad you liked the song. Now give a listen to "perfect strangers" by these guys. You will love it. This band is still active.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@lawrencesantana7253 hey there, appreciate the kind words. Was a fun tune to react to. I'll pop that request on the list to check out, thank you

[@notgivennotgiven7776]

Everytime I see a reaction to this video I've gotta watch. I watch to see if anyone catches Gillan leap at the camera when it's in his face and you're one of the few who did. Cracks me up everytime. More Purple please. Peace

[@GabrielaEckardt]

Deep Purple are still an amazing live band. I already saw them twice this year and I'm looking forward to a few more concert in October. Ian Gillan will turn 79 next Monday and you cannot expect him to hit these high notes anymore. But that's totally fine with me. The new album as fantastic and as the musicianship is concerned they are still concidered the best.

[@jaymez3461]

I'm really enjoying your reactions. Your enthusiasm is great. You really seem to appreciate the music. Keep up the good work. 🤘

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@jaymez3461 thank you for those kind words, I certainly am having a great time learning all this new music! Glad people like yourself join me on the journey

[@nullmalunendlich3399]

Also ich habe aufgehört zuzuhören, weil ich nicht ertrage wenn du ständig in sensible Stellen in der Musik hinein kommentierst. Wie willst du selbst denn das Stück aufnehmen ohne nicht beim Reden die Hälfte auszublenden? Bitte tue es nicht in am wenigsten Mitten in einem Solo.

[@tedburnard841]

This is DP Mk2, the best line-up imho. Jon Lord (RIP) on his cutdown and modified Hammond organ fed thru a stack of Marshall amps is mind blowing. Lead guitarist Ritchie Blackmore is probably the greatest and most underrated guitarists ever. He formed a group called Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio after DP broke up in 1975 (you really should check them out - Stargazer and its sequel A Light in the Black is epic, along with Kill the King, Tarot Woman, Do You Close Your Eyes and Starstruck). Deep Purple reformed with Mk2 in 1984 and released Perfect Strangers. Ian Paice is one of the best drummers of the time and Roger Glover is often overlooked for his work in the engine room on bass guitar. What more can be said about Ian Gillan’s voice? Unbelievable. Welcome to the music of my late teens and early 20s.

[@nealjones255]

Amazing track not seen the video for a long time Superb

[@Seelos333]

Awesome react to an awesome tune!

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

Really appreciate that, and yeah this is a banging tune!

[@cletushouse906]

This was not a concert, it was a recording session. Those folks had to behave.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@cletushouse906 they did well to show such restraint! I'd have been kicked out after 30 seconds of them having started playing 🤣

[@Jack96993]

Back when people behaved 😅

[@agegroot5666]

Great live version of the classic.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@agegroot5666 💯. Loved every second of it!

[@daveswallow8351]

Unbelievable musicians and my favourite Purple song of all time. The guitar solo in the studio album is my favourite of all time!

[@lazarus550]

I saw them live 1971 1972 in Glasgow awesome band.The Yes of today is a Steve Howe tribute band.Without Jon Anderson there is no Yes.

[@reflect916]

One of the greatest rock songs of all time. As I said before, I saw them live last month, but unfortunately Ian Gillan cannot sing those high notes anymore, so they didn't play Child In Time. That's the most disapointing part of the entire concert. But other than that, it was amazing and astounding performance. They are still amazing and rocking. I recommend you go to their concert because I don't think they will ever stop touring, it's one of your only chances to see rock legends live. When you are 90 years old, Deep Purple will as legendary as Mozzart is to us now (a bit less).

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@reflect916 I'll be keeping an eye out for local concerts of them for sure!

[@reflect916]

@@MusicForTheSoulReactions Great. You will see Ian Gillan (the singer in this video), Ian Paice (the drummer in this video) and Roger Glover (the bassist in this video (wearing the pink suit)). The organist unfortunately passed away, and the guitarist left the band in the 90s. But still, you are seeing 3 of the legends from this performance.

[@kathleenarchacki7875]

Saw them in the 70s

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@kathleenarchacki7875 you're just another person I know need to be jealous of 🤣

[@RonnieMcNairney]

Uriah Heep were often compared to Deep Purple. Both excellent Bands. Brilliant performance here. Roadie Ronnie SCOTLAND. Keep Rocking 👍

[@steevenfrost]

It was recorded in Granada TV Studio's. Yes they were told to be quite still. I read that some staff from Granada studios some could have been curious and not that bothered about this new music. Ifit was aconcert setting probably the audience reaction would have been wild.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@steevenfrost yeah it was certainly an interesting contrast between bands energy and the crowd!

[@sailinbob11]

Back in the 70s, you had to behave on TV. I first saw em in 73. Trust me... we were not tame. I was 13. No adult supervision.

[@michaelmccombs2959]

And they just released a new album in July ... Sure it's not all the members we see here, but Ian Paice (drummer) and Ian Gillan (vocals) are still there. Amazing the singer can still sing after playing this early in his career. DP is legend.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@michaelmccombs2959 I'll have to check out their new stuff some time too!

[@lizholewa8881]

Roger Glover is still in Deep Purple.

[@michaelmccombs2959]

@@lizholewa8881 yep he is, those three are the heart and soul, along with John Lord. Everyone says it was RB, but I feel their strengths were in the bass riffs, drumming, keys, and vocals... Just about everything but lead guitar.

[@georgegrougios]

The crowd was told to be still and quiet as this was live and being recorded.

They knew each others feel and were in the groove they had a kind of telepathy understanding so they could stop at that moment.

Wow!! Gracias por tu reacción, gracias por traer al mejor grupo del mundo a tu canal 🙏 Leyendas!! Padres del Metal... para mí, los mejores de la famosa Trinidad Impía!! 1 Deep Purple 3 Black Sabbath 3 Led Zeppelin Simplemente los adoro!!💜💜💜💜💜

[@zebo-the-fat]

The crowd were told to keep quiet by the TV studio

[@ronaldwilson9525]

Imagine an audience probably expecting to see something like Tom Jones and seeing Deep Purple instead. I’m guessing they were shocked beyond belief.

Pretty cool eh ✨️🎶🙏🎶✨️

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@lesblatnyak5947 very!

[@ryanr5319]

These guys rock! Ian Gillan is an amazing vocalist. Did one album with Sabbath also. A future taste treat. Also, is the voice of Jesus on the Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack. Also really love keyboardist, John Lord. One of the very best. RIP. Akin to Wakeman of Yes. Ty for reaction good sir. 🥃 cheers.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@ryanr5319 absolutely wowed by his vocals, he had me sold at his first delivery of a high note!

[@gerryrafferty7500]

It’s a BBC recording the audience were told not to move

[@Sparky-B-76]

Haven't looked through the comments to see if someone's already mentioned this but the audience were told as a condition that they weren't allowed to bop along and had to stay still. Something to do with BBC standards at the time. Great reaction though!

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@Sparky-B-76 hey, thanks for the comment and the info. I'd have certainly found it hard to sit so still whilst they were jamming like that 🤣

[@jalkabre5904]

Once you go further down the Deep Purple rabbit hole (tons of great songs), switch over the the band called Rainbow (founded by the Deep Purple guitarist, Ritchie Blackmore) with Ronnie James Dio on vocals. Song to check out is their epic song "Stargazer" and then songs from the 1977 Munich concert - "Mistreated" and "Catch the Rainbow"... definitely music for your soul.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@jalkabre5904 appreciate the suggestions for a new band, I'll pop them on the list 🙂

[@coheed1000]

What a classic tune! Im glad you like this stuff so much.. now you're down the Purple rabbit hole you need to try one with Glenn Hughes singing (Glenn is another rabbit) hole).. I suggest ''Getting Tighter'' and then further to this you will find yet another Purple singer also who will surely pop up on this channel sooner or later.. Irish Roadie Colm signing out! 🤘😎🤘

[@iulianjuly]

They did not coordinate to perfection. The studio version is somehow different, perfection. Ritchie was quoted saying (true or false) that they will never be able to replicate live the studio version.

[@Someonelser1]

Vocal Masterclass, and the band can play a note or too as well. 2 recommendations for ya, 1st, The 2024 Deep Purple album "=1" they still got it. Then, I wish to steer you to the band Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore started after Leaving Purple, Rainbow and THE MOST EPIC TRACK EVER, featuring THE GREATEST ROCK VOCALIST EVER, Ronnie James Dio, "Stargazer" you will thank me.

[@johnpbh]

Hahaha.... They didn't have to sit still just like that... Whe we went to see bands WAY back then we actually sat in the seats and listened.. The first band I stood up for was Led Zeppelin in 1974... Haha.... We even waited to the end of the song before we clapped... sod this clapping halfway through... You appreciated the whole thing. And don't get me started on people who stand with their phones up filming stuff instead of looking at the band.... HEHE.. SORRY for the mini rant. I suspect what you have there in the audience is the lunchtime crowd come to watch a band play... notice all the women and the handbags at their feet... LOL. Great reaction as always. Keep on Rocking young sir.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@johnpbh oh yeah I too hate watching music through filming on a phone! It was just unusual to see that crowd. They would have kicked me out for I'd have found it impossible to sit still 🤣 appreciate the comment as always

[@johnpbh]

@@MusicForTheSoulReactions LOL

[@victorstefanovsky6902]

These are top. Usicians. Jon Lord is one of the best keyboardists. He wrote classical music too. And guitarist Ritchie Blackmore is one of the geniuses who has influenced modern metal.Deep Purple , unlike Black Sabbath are not getting enough credit as pioneers of heavy metal. Iron Maiden are heavupily influenced by Deep Purple and Ian Gillan is the idol of Bruce Dickinson. Metallica’s Lars Ulrich started playing drums when he saw Purple in Stockholm in 1972 when he was 9 years old….

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@victorstefanovsky6902 appreciate the info, I just think they are amazing based off what little I've heard so far, I'm guessing it will only get better!

[@tobytanzer]

Check out Ian Gillian as Jesus in Andrew Lloyd Wright's Jesus Christ Superstar. The soundtrack is phenomenal, even if you know how it ends....One of the best voices in rock and in musical theatre. That's Jon Lord on organ. Almost as good as Wakeman or Emerson. He's just a Lord - not a Rock God.🤣

[@johnnewman366]

It’s not “Gillian” it’s “Gillan”. Why do people always add the extra “i”??

[@Pcrimson1]

I tried. The vocals kill it for me, ugh! Sounds like someone had him by the nads. Deep Purple's not for me. Uriah Heep please - Easy Living, Sweet Lorraine, Sunrise, Magician's Birthday.

[@MusicForTheSoulReactions]

@@Pcrimson1 I appreciate your efforts in giving it a go. I've stuck uriah heep on the list 🙂

[@erikahlander3489]

Silent audience or lipsync.

[@Rassskle]

There is a much better live performance by an older, mature Ian Gillan doing When A Blind Cries.....the band were excellant, but i think a hand picked collection of session muso's for the concert / tour.....was not Deep Purple .
