DEEP PURPLE - Lazy | FIRST TIME REACTION

[@karenj3611]

Real musicians playing real instruments, wow there's a grest concept

[@darrencooke4207]

This is why they are one of the best and most talented rock bands of all time.

[@davidburton9136]

All were GREAT musicians. I really am a big fan of drummer Ian Paice. He's one of the greatest of his generation. His playing here really drives this song.

[@garyarnett1220]

ARE great musicians. Other than Lord, the others are still out here.

[@katrinamiller9697]

Deep Purple showcases a technically perfect BIG SOUND as an unapologetic symphony! This band plays the basic instruments, (no synthesizers, mouth bows, ect), no gimics, no make-up, no crazy marketing plays ....yet somehow these genius composers formed a tight Rock n Roll ensemble that performs with ability, desire and passion! You know these guys don't easily suffer LAZY (people)! Thank You Deep Purple for showing us what human beings are capable of...... if we work for it

[@ponytrekker8996]

Singer Ian gillan was playing the harmonica..deep purple influenced many..you will love space Truckin from this same album.

[@bobschenkel7921]

If the organist at my church had played more like Jon Lord, I might have attended more regularly. But sadly no. So I didn't "attend" as much. Deep Purple was one of the greatest live music experiences in my life, got to see them three times, and always a stunning night of awesomeness.

[@MissAstorDancer]

I'm so jealous!!!! Damn, I wish I had gotten to see them.

[@AAndromeda-lw7fh]

"Lazy" is also an absolute masterpiece 💎 ... Rock - Blues that is awesome !! Deep Purple has a lot of good songs ... especially from 1969 -1975! 🎸🎹🥁🎤 Thank you

[@stpnwlf9]

In my opinion, this was Purple's best lineup and this album lets all five members show off throughout. Takes me back to high school.

[@Test4Echos]

Deep Purple is a live band, and they released one of the best lives in rock history with Made in Japan. That album has the best versions of the songs on it imho. It's a very intimate recording with killer performances of every member of the band, recorded with an 8-track tape recorder and the sound is amazing.

[@bookhouseboy280]

The later released Live on the BBC/In Concert (1972) is even better in some respects.

[@markrowett8168]

This is my favourite on this album... and they are all great tunes!

[@caryd67]

This song has a shuffle groove, which is most definitely the blues!!

[@mikemicrael5749]

Deep Purple was my first favorite band in 1971, until I discovered Jethro Tull. The album Made in Japan is one of the great live albums.

[@KevinRCarr]

Mm-mm. Machine Head. What can ya say? Simply one of the premiere albums of the rock era, one of a double handful of iconic albums that were game-changers when they hit the record stores and radio stations,. If you do Child in Time, do the live version recorded in front of an audience in BBC studios.

[@bopep1368]

while DP and this album was huge at the time, it was just one of a zillion great music pieces flyin at you at the time. Yet, look how great it is and, without sounding like a "Get off my lawn: dude" -todays music....?

[@davidmckenzie420]

My favorite DP song!!!!

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Jon Lord ran his Hammond Organ through a marshall stack, or the equivalent. Basically a really high powered guitar rig for that time. There is another fan-favorite that is back to back with this one on Machine Head. Space Truckin.

[@beernmetal6964]

You should hear this on the live album "Made in Japan". Check out the whole recording.

[@Snowman29101963]

Lazy is one of my favourite tracks of Deep Purple, so glad you enjoyed it so much. Very blues/rock!

[@mamaflush9945]

I thought I'd suggest another song by "Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers (Live)" I love Ian Gillians vocals he has such an amazing vocal range. This song is from their eleventh studio album and it was released in 1984. It was the most successful album recorded, by the reformed "Mark II" line-up. It was the first "Deep Purple" studio album in nine years; and the first with the "Mark II" line-up in eleven years. When they broke up for the first time in 1976 the band members were: Lord, Paice, (vocalist) David Coverdale, Glenn Huges (vocals, bassist), Tommy Bolin (vocals, guitarist) (Mark IV). The group reformed in April 1984 with their Mark II line-up consisting of Blackmore, Lord, Gillian, Paice and Glover.

[@barrycohen311]

I'm an old guy and I live in a nice neighborhood. Sometimes cars go by driven by teenagers and young people, blasting our Rap and Techno and other B.S. music. My first reaction is "what idiots." But then I remember as a teenager I did exactly the same thing. Except I was blasting out Deep Purple, Cream, Hendrix, Zeppelin, etc Ha ha. We at least had better music back in the day.

[@josephbruno6111]

Great album, I rank this one up with Abbey Road, Dark Side of the Moon, Zeppelin, Fragile & Paranoid. And yes, my parents freaked out at some of this.

[@alphacrusis2632]

Jon Lord plays a Hammond C3 Organ (plus a full leslie unit), Ian Gillan plays the harmonica. Yes react to 'Child in Time' but do it from the 'Made in japan' live album because its by far the best rendition of that song Ian ever sang, in fact all of the songs from that double album are the best renditions; Highway Star, Smoke on the Water, Child in Time, Lazy, all of their best songs (to date from that time) have been captured on this album. Made in Japan must be one of the best live albums ever produced, happy listening.

[@stephenroberge7824]

Talking about a fantastic song wow but you have to listen to the live version 1972 live in Copenhagen then you see the Masters playing their instruments best rock band of all time watch it live you won't regret it

[@tedr3586]

That was 1972. If you would like to see a later version of Deep Purple, check out "Time for Bedlam" recorded in 2017

[@ricardoluistomasone4663]

DEEP PURPLE MI BANDA FAVORITA MACHINE HEAD CAMBIO MI VIDA LOVE DEEP PURPLE!!!

[@AAndromeda-lw7fh]

… Be sure to check out “Child in Time”! ... But first the studio version and then the "live" recording from 1970! ... This will give you a better feel for this MASTERPIECE!!! 🎸🎹🎸🥁🎸

[@kevinlundgren1169]

Just wait until you check out RAT BAT BLUE !! If you want some killer organ ! Yes , Child In Time , live , 1970 . And Strange Kind Of Woman , live , 1972 !!

[@Bluewizard7131]

There was no one that didn't own this album in the 70's.

[@ricardoluistomasone4663]

DEEP PURPLE EN LOS 70 ERAN IMBATIBLES!!!🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@longhairkev1]

That organ is a Hammond B-3 which has such a great sound that I love so much!

[@myownchannel247]

Man I suggested this a while back, glad you got to hear it either way. I was a kid when this came out, my parents had the vinyl

[@russellmorgan5611]

Icons of the genre for fifty years and for much longer i expect.

[@stephenroberge7824]

If you play Lazy play the live in Copenhagen made in Japan is nacho Richie playing the guitar enough live in Copenhagen does you can say they're the pioneers of rock them and Black Sabbath.

[@stephenroberge7824]

Do not play Lazy in Japan live in Copenhagen shows more of Richie playing guitar

[@rhondamcewananderson3968]

Everyone had this! Party..💜

[@Patrice-rs1jg]

Vu la qualité de la musique actuelle un bon vieux deep purple efface tout 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👌👌👌👌👏👏

[@byronmitchell3784]

All I got to say, your on🎉 the right track. Give a listen to the rest of the album. 1973 Deep Purple "Machine Head". Every song deserves your attention. Rock On, 66 and I'm not done. Music for life....

[@karenj3611]

My favorite cut from Machine Head, rocked out many a day to this album back In the 70's

[@treyanderson8624]

It’s DEEP PURPLE. They bring the heavy.

[@larteonceagain]

During the time that Ian Gillan ( really really good harmonica player ) got kicked and they took in Joe Lynn Turner as the singer, the bassist Roger Glover played harmonica.

[@ljubomir5246]

Listen speed king from Deep Purple.

[@ninoorjon]

As far as inspiration goes, it's Eric Clapton, not ZZ Top. Lead singer Ian Gillan actually plays the harmonica. As for the harmonica bass player, when in 1990 another singer Joe Lynn Turner was in Deep Purple (then Gillan was returned, who is still there), Roger Glover, the bass player of the group, performed this part at concerts. And about the use of Hammond, I can say that all the old bands that survived to this day and used the organ then use it now, including Deep Purple.

[@stpnwlf9]

I think Hammond stopped making those B3 and C3 organs and while there are pretty decent synth programs that emulate them, there is still NOTHING that absolutely captures Jon Lord's overdriven Hammond or the signature blues sound of a B3 through a Leslie.

[@Dibbdroid]

Blackmore said in interview (it is on his KZbin channel) this song is his tip of the hat to Eric Clapton and was inspired by Steppin' Out - John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers

[@StevesFunhouse]

I think you should definitely try to check out their studio stuff BEFORE venturing off into their live stuff. I firmly believe you will appreciate it much more if you hear what things were SUPPOSED to sound like before what they do to it live.

[@blitztim6416]

Pretty much everything on Machine Head is good. ‘Made in Japan’ is a live album. ‘Burn’ is another great song.

[@MissAstorDancer]

Don't really know how I missed this one! My absolute fave DP tune! I bought "Machine Head" when it was released, and have been through many copies of it on various media! After all these decades, and hundreds of listens, this song STILL fries me⚡every time!!!! 🤘💢💥

[@dragon-shepherd]

Jon Lord helped introduce the World to the Hammond Organ. And he was a Master in bringing it to life. Deep Purple were considered to be among the best bands of the era because, well, they simply Were. 🎹🎹🎹 🎸🎸

[@ShawnSalvadori]

The way DP plays the organ... man 👌

[@dragon-shepherd]

I just wish that I had fraction of that [e-mail]5143

[@barryrammer7906]

Jon Lord rip keyboards Deep Purple

[@brewstergallery]

Ned from Spain and subscribed ! saying " Hey man ! " Maybe I missed it but I wish you would say your name or give us an alias or something. Anyway, one of my all time favorite albums and bands. A lot of 60's - 70's bands in the UK / US used the blues idiom from the basic changes to more sophisticated ones and added classical or jazz ideas. I would not say DP was an influence on ZZ Top. They were blues based too but less jammy, with a thick , loping, swampy, vibe mixed with country that is so Texas and kind of funky. The "Top" were really into the early Peter Green version of Fleetwood Mac.

[@randallmccoy8581]

Is that F'N outrageous originality or what ?? Not all like Highway star but every bit as awesome as well. I was 15 when this came out. It was both trippy and badass at the same time. Loved it then and even more with the passage of time.

[@ruthjohnson4380]

If you want to hear more blues rock from them, try When a Blind Man Cries.

[@davetroock9522]

If you haven’t already, please check out Pictures of Home from the same album! You will not be disappointed!

[@tedr3586]

My parents hated "Child in Time" the most !!

[@garyarnett1220]

Actually my parents didn't mind it at all, they loved anything with a classical bent. I was raised on Tchaikovsky, you know with cannons part of the tune.

[@bumperu]

The best album for that hash pipe high.

[@allie2703]

they are at their best live ps ian Gillan was the first jesus christ superstar

[@benmelich8220]

ZZ Top actually started around the same time as Deep Purple, maybe a couple of years later.

[@keithr-xj7zx]

Now you have to watch the video of Joe Bonamassa in studio covering this song. The great Australian singer Jimmy Barnes on vocals. You won't be disappointed. 😊

[@armandogarza6181]

This is definitely a blues song, DP style. The rock English bands of the era really took to the blues, not so much here in the states.

[@theemaygoogleme151]

Bob Dylan Neil Young and Paul Simon come to mind for guitar, vocals and harmonica all at top level in one performance. Always my favorite tune from Machine Head, good call.

[@0isez]

Not too sure how much the bands in the 70's were listening to each other. There was a sort of Renaissance in rock going on at the time since the Beatles took rock out of the do-wap and boogie stage and expanded the dimensions. Other bands took note and started to experiment with other genres to incorporate into rock. Lazy was a good example of how musicians had to get better on their instruments in order to perfect this effort. I think the question is not how the contemporary bands of Deep Purple were influenced, but how the bands of later generations were influenced when exposed to this stuff. ZZ Top didn't need to imitate or follow D.P. or any other band as they were following their own star as was the majority of the bands at that time. The uniqueness of each band can be borne out in their unmistakable signature sound. Almost no band sounded alike at that time and if they did, they would have been called out for being a poor man's rendition of the original. Back then, no band wanted that reputation. So think of 60's and 70's as a baroque period in rock, a high point or pinnacle never to be equaled or duplicated again.

[@dwoehrma]

Neil Young. He plays harmonica and acoustic guitar at the same time. He has a headgear thing to hold the harmonica up.

[@kevinsattler6603]

CCR..THE PUSHER. My Mom hated that song. Peace ✌️

[@highwayst4r712]

Steppenwolf, dude.

[@highwayst4r712]

Mine, too. And she demonstrated by smashing it.
