Deep Purple - Wring That Neck

[@topquark4208]

Purchased this album at flea market in Massachusetts around 1985, completely unaware of the impact it would have on my love of 60s and 70s psychedelic rock. I was 17, and it flipped the switch in my brain from nieve to enlightenment.

[@WhoisVinnie]

An early and underrated era of Deep Purple.

[@timothywilson8874]

Ian Paice is one of the greatest rock drummers of all time

[@Blanqui31]

Super batteur effectivement !..

[@EddioPinaR]

Deep Purple was the best band of their time.. They got the best players. every single musician in DP was a master by himself. With Led Zepp and B.Sabbath they were the Holy Trinity of Hard Rock.

[@tomislavrimac1795]

In 1987. someone gave me an untitled tape. One whole side was "Wring that neck". 19 minutes of masterpiece! For more than 30 years I've been looking for just that version -nobody heard about it(!?) Finally, I found it on the album "In concerts 1970-72." via You Tube. For more than half of my life, I've listened to it over 1000 times, and it still gives me goosebumps. Thank you, DP!

[@jrodbish21]

Been listening to that album for years like 20 years but for whatever reason never heard that song in its entirety until recently. But straight up masterpiece. The fact it can switch tempo in a second makes the song so much better, especially the ending.

[@ThePaulv12]

I've got this album. Had it since 1985 and never listened to it. I'm ready for it now.

[@maerte70]

this was the first "after Smoke on the water and child in time" song that I got to know after a live concert thanks to my brother-in-law from Deep Purple. Not bad for 1968, very creative! I wanted to be with John Lord in Lucerne, but unfortunately he passed away shortly before :-(

[@marcinperlinski8932]

Kapitalny utwór instrumentalny!!! Nóżka sama się rwie do tańca.

[@RockinProfessor]

Best album from the preGillian era of DP with Rod Evans as vocalist.....personally, my favorite era for The Purple Boys

[@christo6765]

In a way, you are correct! (and it is all thanks to the forgotten Vanilla Fudge)

[@wayneheyward900]

My brother gave me his copy of the Tetragramaton release in the 70s. I was too young to really get it at the time, but by the time I was 15 it became my favorite record, and it is still one of my favorite records of all time.

[@sdgakatbk]

This is the first rock album I ever bought. While the Mark I Deep Purple wasn't as big as Mark II, they were really good. I like their cover of Help from Shades of Deep Purple for example. Not as loud or hard as Mark II, but a very good sound. I liked both though I started to lose interest around Burn.

[@bobz652]

A lot of bands did great instrumentals back then but this is one of the best for sure!

[@konradnaywood2932]

Great song, totally under rated!!

[@RZLAND]

All of a sudden I started humming this song in my head today. I knew I was in trouble trying to figure out who did it so I could listen. All of a sudden Deep Purple pops in my brain and then I went on a quest to find it. Searched best all time rock instrumentals and I found it at number 191. That's way wrong. But I'm so glad I found it!!

[@richardl3720]

I remember they had their own commercial jet. The best tour was the Made in Japan. I saw them and they played about 10 songs but each was really long, thankfully so. I remember Jon Lord , in the days of first come first serve floor seating when you got near the stage albeit a tad crushed, bent down and asked this guy something during Space Truckin. He asked this guy if he was ok, apparently because he was banging his head on the stage. This guy replied something like "yeah, far out..." I only know this because I read it in either Circus or Creem. Blackmore & Pace, incredible talents.

[@markc4305]

Hi, this is a great example of showcasing each musician's talents....and always thought it would be great as a rock show theme tune!

[@arthurwashburn7624]

Not very well known history. Ian Gillan has said that "Child in Time" is based on It's a Beautiful Day's psychedelic song "Bombay Calling". It's a Beautiful Day in return borrowed Purple's "Wring That Neck" and turned it into "Don and Dewey" on their second album Marrying Maiden

I'm a few years late for the party, but I can't help but comment that I keep hearing Woody Woopecker's iconic laugh in this piece. [Edit] . . . Now that I think about it, the title probably refers to wanting to "Wring That Neck" of that effing bird.
