This is from their 1984 "reunion" album of the same name. After 9 years of inactivity, they came out with this great album. Check out another great song off this album titled "Knocking At Your Backdoor". By the way, I consider Ian Gillan's vocal style to be quite similar to Robert Plant's, with the improvised wails and moans.

Deep Purple are one of the greatest bands in rock history. Their classic line-up of Ian Gillan - Lead Vocals Ritchie Blackmore - Guitars Roger Glover - Bass John Lord - Keyboards Ian Paice - Drums and Percussion Rod Evans did the Lead Vocals on their first 3 releases, the biggest hit of this era was "Hush". An absolute masterpiece with Lord's Keyboards leading the way. As I am not sure if you have reacted to, I will make suggestions based on my opinion. "Machine Head" is their perfect (every song is rippin') album. From "Highway Star" to "Smoke on the Water" to "Lazy" to Ash Williams' (Evil Dead franchise) favorite "Space Truckin", "Woman from Tokyo". When Ian Gillan and Roger Glover left the band they were replaced by Glenn Hughes on Bass and Vocals, and an at the time, unknown vocalist named David Coverdale, later of Whitesnake. The title track "Burn" is an absolute, no pun intended, burner. In 1984, the classic line-up reformed and gave us the album "Perfect Strangers". Opening with "Knocking at Your Back Door" to "Perfect Strangers". There are more great songs in their catalog, but those are some of my favorites. Deep Purple as a band are mentioned with the likes of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath as Heavy Metal pioneers. Thanks again for introducing great music to a new generation. You guys are awesome.

Now in my “older age”, this is my favorite Deep Purple song. Sometimes I have to pinch myself over all the classic rock concerts I’ve seen. Saw this tour and saw when the same singer (Ian Gillan) was lead singer for Black Sabbath for one tour. His voice was as good as studio live both times. Absolutely primal. The staccato rhythm is in the spirit of Kashmir but with the creepy sounding keys in the background is so compelling and unique.

@sumonjamal16532 жыл бұрын
'Perfect strangers' came 12 years after the iconic album 'Machine head' in 1972, which delivered 'Smoke on the water' and other classics... In 1984, that Deep Purple line-up finally came back together for the first time since 1973 (Deep Purple carried on w/ new members until their breakup in 1976). All 5 members played in different projects - guitarist Ritchie Blackmore in the band Rainbow, which he later hired bassist Roger Glover... Ian Gillan played in various solo bands, including Gillan, and had just done 1 album & tour as the singer of Black Sabbath in 1983... Jon Lord (keyboards) and Ian Paice (drums) had spent a few years playing in Whitesnake w/ former Deep Purple singer David Coverdale. In the early 80's, the classic 5 members started talking about reuniting Deep Purple and that finally happened in 1984... they got together, recorded the album 'Perfect strangers' and toured worldwide into 1985, mounting a spectacular comeback. Unfortunately, the reunion would go sour by 1988, primarily because of guitarist Ritchie Blackmore's controlling tendencies and erratic demands... Ian Gillan wanted to tour actively, but Blackmore was not inclined to. Gillan later reflected that when they had 4 guys who wanted to be a band... and 1 guy who wants to run it all single-handedly, it doesn't work. He also recalled that because of missed opportunities to play live and Blackmore's erratic moods on stage, their concerts were not selling up to expectations. Gillan was fired in 1989 and the band recorded 1 album in 1990 w/ ex-Rainbow singer Joe Lynn Turner... But the rest of the band (minus Blackmore) wanted Ian Gillan back for Deep Purple's 25th anniversary in 1993... Ritchie Blackmore, frustrated w/ the musical direction, quit Deep Purple late that year... All 4 Deep Purple members were interviewed afterwards, and they all voiced their frustrations w/ the legendary guitarist... Jon Lord said that he would 'sulk like a little boy'... Ian Paice subtly said that if Blackmore went onstage w/ a problem, the whole band had a problem... Roger Glover grumbled that if he went on stage and felt like he didn't belong there cos they sounded so bad, he just wanted to run offstage and not come back... In 1994, Deep Purple hired former Kansas guitarist Steve Morse to join the band... and after a while, it proved to be the right decision. The band released the 'Purpendicular' album in 1996 and toured actively, w/ most of the issues gone. Ian Gillan revealed that once Steve Morse joined Deep Purple, they had a guy that made rehearsing and playing live enjoyable... and after a while, the fans accepted the change, crowds at their concerts got bigger and touring became a priority once again.

A great example of early metal music! Deep Purple, along with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, are known as the "unholy trinity" of hard rock and heavy metal. The lead singer is Ian Gillan (who later was the vocalist for Black Sabbath). Richie Blackmore wanted someone who could match the range & screams of Robert Plant, of Led Zeplin. Ian's, bone chilling, "Child in Time" is possibly more than what Plant could have delivered, UNBELEIVEABLE! "Child" is the pinnacle of Ian's vocal abilities! A must reaction! Live on the British TV show "Doing Their Thing" 1970 is the best to react to. One other unique factoid of Ian Gillan is he starred as Jesus, in Andrew Lloyd Webber's rock opera, "Jesus Christ Superstar".

The voice is Ian Gillan. He's been the lead singer most of the history of Deep Purple. David Coverdale (of White Snake) took over for a few years (73-75) and Joe Lynn Turner (89-92) for a few. The lyrics were inspired from a character named Elric in a sword and sorcery series from the 70s by the author Michael Moorcock. Side note... Blue Oyster Cult has a song called "Black Blade" that comes from the same Elric character. He was known to wield a sword called Stormbringer that tends to possess the owner and cause them to do evil things.

This song and this band was one of the few that was ahead of their time. The way they used dischordant progressions and unexpected rythms. The smoking Guitar Riffs, and the voice that was otherworldly singing about mysterious things with mysterious rythms and a unique style. I just can't put it into worlds, but his vibe, was a thing, and still is, but this was where it came from. And a few other bands as well. They were all experimenting along these surreal lines. It was music, but it was also Epic Musical Storytelling. They brought you into the secret netherworld of magic and dragons and impossible tasks and unimaginable victories. Saga. Again, I can't find the words, but this was Album Rock that had a theme, and the theme was another world of adventure and sacrifice. Heavy Metal. And there is a movie called heavy Metal that is an animated movie with a Heavy Metal Soundtrack, and you guys should review it on your movie channel. It was a BIG DEAL back in the day. It may seem corny at first, but you will get into it and the music is great. Databyter ,

They are my all time favorite group and Ian Gillan is my favorite singer ever and \i saw them twice the first was cause I went to see Black Sabbath and I better enjoyed Deep Purple and saw them a second time. I was 22 when I first hear Ian and the guys and I'm now 71 and they are still y favorite group. My second favorite singer is Jimi Jamison who sang for Survivor and had a solo career and sadly died at age63. I find that most reactors do Eye Of the Tiger with Dave Bickler and I like it better by Jimi. You should listen to Man Against The World by Survivor I guarantee you will enjoy the song and many others by Survivor with Jimi singing

Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore is a virtuoso , his solo's are amazing and his live playing is nothing short of jaw dropping. Check out Stargazer by his other band Rainbow, you will not be disappointed.

When I was 14 , I went to the very last "Texas Jam" when Purple was the big headlining act. This was when David Coverdale from Whitesnake was their singer. At the show right as Purple took the stage I fell down a bunch of bleachers and injured my right knee. Have needed surgery on it since then.

You guys were so deeply grooving during the instrumental (5/4, 4/4) part. The "intense, battle, heavy" part, as you described it. The time signature keeps the tension going.

Deep Purple is in my top 2 ever bands, This song kicks my butt. Check out Rat Bat BLUE. This band is still making great music. One more awesome fact is that the band makes the music and when it is done Ian Gillian then writes the words. Amazing.

As Beeracuda noted, the Mark IV lineup of Deep Purple reassembled and put the band back on the map. This was a dynamite album, and the next was, too. However the issues between Ritchie and the rest of the band continued until he left for good and put all his focus and energy into Rainbow and writing with Ronnie James Dio.

This song is the first entry on my playlist SPECIFICALLY for scenes of epic battles when I am running a Dungeons and Dragons campaign. I just added "Immigrant Song" and I think maybe "Run to the Hills" might make it on there too. But yeah, EPIC BATTLE SHALL COMMENCE is totally the vibe I got from this track.
