That guy on the keyboard was the guy being interviewed many years later, telling the story of Smoke on the Water. Jon Lord, the greatest keyboardist in rock history in my view.

The fire: On December 4, 1971, a flare gun set fire to the Montreux Casino in Switzerland, where Deep Purple was recording their album Machine Head. The fire was so large that it looked like a fireworks display.Gillan sounds like the G in Gull. 🤣You should have a look at Rick Wakeman .Have a look at Rick Wakeman Solo Medley ~ Yes ~ Live at Montreux [2003] [H I'm a big fan of YES.Richard Christopher Wakeman CBE is an English keyboardist and composer best known as a member of the progressive rock band Yes .Thank you young lady and stay safe.

Awesome reaction and I'm glad that Deep Purple is enjoyed on the island. Smoke on The Water has one of the most iconic guitar riffs in rock music, and the lead guitarist Richie Blackmore is considered considered one of the greatest rock guitarists ever. I would recommend reacting to Highway Star, another great one from Deep Purple.

El gran Jon Lord ( RIP) 😢. GRACIAS POR SEGUIR CON ELLOS!! Mis ídolos de siempre 😊. Es muy amplio su catálogo y cada tema tiene lo suyo. Adoro a Ian Gillan ❤ En "Stange Kind of woman " hay una preciosa batalla entre Ian Gillan y Ritchi Blackmore, guitarrista. De antología!! Abrazos desde Chile, al fin del mundo!!

I know it's very common to believe that Ian Gillian was/are the singer in Deep Purple, but nothing ing could be more wrong. The singer is Ian Gillan. I know for a fact that Mr Gillan, is not what you can say in good terms with Mr Gillian :-). But about this video, since this a short concert so Purple performs the edited version of the song ( was too long for American radio ). So you don't hear the third verse. If you want the whole story check the whole lyrics.
