DEEP PURPLE - CHILD IN TIME | REACTION

Many commenters (justifiably!) praising lead vocals, guitar, and even the drums. But where's the love for Jon Lord, master of the keyboards? Certainly one of the top ten rock keyboardists of all time!

[@Damaged262]

Jon Lord was the most amazing keybordest I've ever seen and or heard. Sure, Steely Dan had a savant on retainer, but Lord had more "feel" to his music, he just leapt out of the speakers! RIP you master of the ivories (plastics)

If ever there was a "perfect" song that had all the components - exemplary vocals, guitar riffs, organ, incredible drumming, composition, emotions, etc - this is it!

[@puncht37]

Deep Purple was 1`st. Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, and Led Zeppelin were known as "The unholy trinity".

[@GroinStrain_]

Well all 3 bands were formed in 1968. Paranoid (ft. Paranoid, iron man and war pigs) and Made in Japan (ft. this song, Highway Star and Smoke on the water) came out in 70 and Zeppelin IV (ft. Stairway, black dog and rock n roll) came out in 71. So they all pretty much at the exact same time. Imagine being a fan of this stuff in the early 70s when it was all coming out for the first time, staggering.

[@puncht37]

They all came out in `68. But, Purple had their 1`st and 2`nd albums out in `68. Zepp had theirs in `69, and Sabb in `70.

[@hedusoto6076]

Deep Purple came out with this in 1970. They had a different vocalist and bass player in their first records, and they were playing kinda brit pop with some psychedelic flavor, until they decided to go with this direction (now known as hard rock). They were the fathers of hard rock alongside Led Zeppelin, who also were starting by that years, although Led Zepp were more blues oriented kind of vibe going on. Pink Floyd, on the other hand, were a psychedelic prog band, and started a little bit earlier. Man, you HAVE to listen Deep Purple´s BURN, from their third reincarnation, when they (again) changed their vocalist and bass player. And if possiible, watch the 1974 live version, it´s mind blowing. Then, watch the 2014 live version from a tribute concert for the late (and great) keyboard player Jon Lord. It features original Deep Purple´s drummer, current DP keyboardist Don Airey, Glenn Hughes, bass player and second voice from that third reincarnation and Iron Maiden´s front man Bruce Dickinson. BURN!

[@paulself8698]

Another song of theirs, you have to check out is "Smoke on the water"... it'll get you too :D GREAT reaction to one of the alltime great bands :D (to answer your question, both Zepp and Purple have been founded in 1968, they came and conquered together :) )

Ian Gillan was the voice of Jesus in the Original London Concept Recording (1970), not the movie version. The Original version is much better, partly because of Gillan's vocal talent. I found it here in its entirety on KZbin. No need to react, but you MUST check it out. It's still the greatest Rock Opera of all time, in my humble opinion.

Child In Time, Demon's Eye, and Stormbringer are some of Deep Purple's best, but rarely get played on radio these days. Congrats on reacting to one of their true classics. Deep Purple was pretty much contemporary with Zeppelin. They might have had their first hit a couple of years before Zeppelin released their first album.
