I was 12 years old in 1970 when a friend of mine, who was a couple of years older than me, played that album Deep Purple in Rock, and especially the song Child in Time, for me for the first time with his record player. I was in great awe, and overwhelmed by the power of this song, Ian Gillan's voice and still more by the superb guitar solo of Ritchie Blackmore! Never has there been a song that has instantly affected me so much, in admiration. From that moment I was a "fan" of Deep Purple and especially Ritchie Blackmore, and still am. Of course Ritchie's other main band Rainbow was great as well. Ritchie Blackmore, the greatest ever guitar player, and behind two of the all time best heavy rock bands, Deep Purple and Rainbow! Really should be knighted for his musical achievements!

[@josephsoap2698]

I bought In Rock when I was 9. All I had ever heard from Deep Purple was Hush and Kentucky Woman. In Rock was in the New Release Section of the Record Store. I went home and put In Rock on my GE Wildcat Stereo. When Speed King came blaring out of the Speakers I was shocked as my parents were shocked. After that I never looked back. I have been a huge Deep Purple Fan for 53 years. Lars Ulrich was correct. They were just better than anyone else.

My old boss at the local Leicester Mercury newspaper said Jon Lord lived on the same street as him when they were kids, and they'd called round dozens of times to try and persuade Jon to come out and play footie (soccer) on the local Rec; of course his Mum said he's got to practice his piano so he didnt have time for that; my boss said they ALL wanted to be the next footballing legend, but none of them made it to their dream; Jon Lord did! Jack (my boss's first name) said he wished he'd taken up something different like that, but a few years later he'd bumped in to JL and he showed him his Mansion white classical Rolls-Royce; Jack lamented that here he was, a middle manager for a regional newspaper, barely managing to keep the wolves from the door on his meagre salary, and yet the one person, who was quite humble about who he was, who'd stuck at the hard work required instead of, or maybe whilst dreaming, had been so successful and lived an incredible life; A lesson for us all there, maybe multiple lessons!!

Having seen Ritchie in concert a gazillion times, he indeed shreds, running up and down the neck. BUT, he can also play the softest, most lyrical beautiful lines. Jon said it best. "Ritchie is 4 guitarists in one." Sure, there are many guitarists that can play fast arpeggios, but that is all they do. They are skilled players, but Ritchie is a musician.

Although the Brits weren't seriously involved in Vietnam, many of us Americans appear to think that's all anyone in the world was writing or thinking about in 1970, such as War Pigs, which also had nothing to do with Vietnam. Also, the lyric about "the line" is "the line that's drawn between the good and bad." This has nothing to do with Vietnam, and saying so for no reason makes us all look foolish. The quote was accurate.

[@seabud6408]

They called the album “DP in Rock” because they had been a more psychedelically oriented band, who a few months before this album released “Concerto for group and orchestra” (1969) A great live experience , written by Jon Lord. Ritchie worried that the band were not being perceived as the hard rock band they had become since Ian Gillan and Roger Glover joined in mid ‘69. (Hence the “in Rock” title) No other band could have produced those two albums within a few months of each other in ‘69. No one could play guitar with those dynamics, speed and intensity but Blackmore in ‘69 Disappointed that you had so little to say about this monumental track, musically, structurally but glad you chose it. Purple have released 22 original studio albums since ‘68. Their last “Whoosh!” Went straight to No1 in the German charts .. as did their previous 2 albums produced by Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper) It was no 1 in several countries worldwide (they still fill arenas all over the globe) it got multiple 5 star 10/10 reviews in the press. Shame young folks today only know Smoke OTW and Highway Star. Purple were the biggest selling act in the world 1973-74 the year this stellar line up broke up. , they now feel, due to overwork. Ian Gillan (the late?) isn’t dead by the way. 😀
