Deep Purple - Smoke on the Water (Live, Sydney, 1984)

The return of Deep Purple in December 1984 to the stage - Check out this glorious performance of the classic Smoke On The Water in Sydney Australia on 13th December 1984

[@kevinshannon955]

They were all getting along quite well on this tour - hadn’t been back together long enough to start getting on one another’s nerves yet. And damn they sounded good on this tour.

[@glenncampbell3145]

I was there. It was epic. I'm a bit deaf these days and i tell people sorry but I saw deep purple in 84. Never felt more powerful sound , the air was a force of sound

[@clausappel8086]

Even Beethoven would say so if he was still alive 😉

[@azznbad1]

I saw them in an arena and a stadium in 84, and I have never heard anything louder inside the arena. The perfect Strangers tour did not disappoint.

Can confirm, best ever seen, I'll never forget John Lords keyboard solo

[@jessemcdonald3836]

"Forget the rest"...what an insult. Yes this the perhaps the most popular line up of Deep Purple, but to just "forget" the last almost 30 years is absurd. Purple right now are just as successful if not more successful than they've ever been. What a rubbish comment

[@jessemcdonald3836]

@@bofinnpoulsen249 - again, that is simply your opinion…Purple are probably more successful right now than they’ve ever been. This lineup has been around almost 25 years and Morse has been in the band way longer than Ritchie ever was. They have an enormous following right now.

I was at this concert and, as good as "Perfect Strangers Live" is, I'd like to see the full film of this one. It was the night George Harrison joined the band onstage for "Lucille" and, AFAIK, the only time they played "Lucille" the whole tour. They did not play anything from "Who Do We Think We Are" or "Fireball". "Strange Kind of Woman" was played, but that was a single only here in Oz and did not appear on the local release of "Fireball" unlike some of the versions released O/S.

[@glenchapman3899]

I was there the other night. Always remember they opened with Highway Star, then did three from Perfect Strangers. Then Gillan says to the crowd. Okay thats the new shit out of the way, now we are going to play what you paid to hear lol

I never got to see them. Always loved the kind of outtakes and solo's etc. But. This was like something new they eventually went into with tempo and everything with this GOAT Deep Purple song. I personally don't like how they played it. It's a classic.

[@jeffkity7369]

02/25/2023---where was the fire? It was in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in the sky from the bombing of a Gambling House that would later become the infamous Hard Rock Casino. " They don't call it Hard Rock Casino for nothin'. There is a well hidden reason/ meaning behind and for everything "!

[@andycohen3384]

I cannot forgive Gillian about refusing playing with Blackmore & he doesn’t sing so good like in the 70s but he was good in this song

[@grdray2138]

Woooooooooo.

[@1Rockdad]

Ian getting that close to Blackmore in "his space" and RB smiling was a rare event. It just wasn't done. Have no clue to why someone didn't dot his eye. Blackmore burned thru more band and crew members thru his career with his tantrums and narcissism. BFD he plays a decent guitar

[@JokersWild70]

Well, this wasn't Rainbow, so Blackmore couldn't just get rid of who he wanted, when he wanted. But you're totally right: Ritchie did not like anyone over on his side of the stage at any point. Gillan hadn't started annoying him yet, lol.

[@azznbad1]

I saw a stadium show that was a bit odd from the other shows I've seen where Blackmore and Lord were both stage right and fairly close. I had never see. them change up the stage like they did that night for some reason.
