Deep Purple - Child in Time solo

[@SierraTangoGuns]

I've never seen Deep Purple replicate this solo live and I always thought maybe it was just a one off studio performance never to be done again. And I never see this solo get any love on "best guitar solo" countdowns. My dude you are an absolute legend for being able to pull this one off.

[@HardcoreIPA]

Ritchie always said he slowly forgot the original solos and started changing them. There was a live album called Powerhouse recorded in late '69 where the solo is pretty similar to this one.

[@dsuvar]

Great man for sherin that information. Glad to know that Blackmoore actualy could do it.

[@dsuvar]

Blackmore

[@bushibayushi]

I always thought it would be impossible to replicate this solo. Man, you really nailed it. One of the best solos in history. But man, replicating it is one thing - Ritchie has actually come up with all those wonderful licks... it's easy to forget that someone had to actually COMPOSE that solo in the first place ;).

[@infidelheretic8008]

That's why he's Richie Blackmore and we're not!

[@osorissalgado3831]

infidel heretic Exactly.lol.

[@HerobrineGbriel]

the thing is - he didn't compose it, he improvised it completely, which makes it even more badass

[@youtubepelo994]

No hay nada compuesto todo los solos de Richie Blackmore son improvisados no verás un solo de Richie Blackmore repetirse, eso es lo que a Blackmore le caracteriza, es un genio

[@vyo_xd]

And people believe that "Stairway to Heaven" solo is hard...

[@josemariagomezlopez6463]

I'm sorry but I think the historic solo at MSG in 1973 is something from another world...

[@orlandoosorio7023]

[@zoltanbendeguzszabo153]

Best Blackmore solo ever. One of the best rock songs ever

[@robertritchie2860]

Just to think the original was played on Gibson 335. For me Its the best solo ever and was recorded in 1960/70. The tone on the original album was sublime (AC30 I suppose). This blew away anything else done at the time. Deep Purple MK1 were thrown off a tour supporting Cream in the US, as Blackmore killed Clapton every night. It’s not difficult to see why...

[@elvengadorcerocho]

My friend, as a heartcore deep purple and blackmore fan, you have left me speechless... by far one of the best guitar covers i have seen here on youtube... wish I could play like you. Greetings from Ecuador

[@inthelapofthegods7235]

I always wish that Blackmore's solo were longer...

[@psteeg3551]

yeah because this one is like... short...

[@skatelife59]

NO, every solo needs a good ending.

[@c1t1z3n]

yeah, but that good ending could take longer to get to :P

[@infidelheretic8008]

Give Richie a break. Longer solos by him could cause major injuries.

I can watch this 100 times. Bad ass man. My favourite guitar solo. Ritchie was a master.

[@bushibayushi]

i thought it was impossible to faithfully recreate this solo - dude that's spot on! congratulations I have no idea how Ritche came up with this, one of the most original, difficult and absolutely amazing solos of all time

[@youtubepelo994]

Todo el solo fue improvisado Blackmore es así no verás un solo de Richie igual, sea el tema que sea el solo nunca es igual

[@tumbamarch89]

The best guitar solo in musical history and you nailed it!

[@shomy4u210]

For those who speaks english ... nope this is not a fake. Anyone who play (I play over 25 years) can see that this is not a fake. Maybe he just don't play in the same position (which I doubt) but this cover is great. A sad na srpskom , momak svaka cast, odlicna svirka. Pusti ljubomorne nek se pate :) Pozdrav iz Krusevca

Često svratim da ponovo pogledam ovaj solo. Ne samo da je tonski precizan već mislim da su i pozicije ruke tačne 99% ako ne 100%. Svima nam je ovaj Blackmore solo nešto posebno. Svaka čast Petre!

[@joacimwarn3808]

Absolutely incredible, totally spot on.

[@ericr5431]

I had to watch this again. I seen Purple in 3 times. Ritchie Blackmore never played the beginning part of the solo and I have no idea why...... Again, one of my favorite all time guitar solos. I burned the grooves out of Deep Purple in Rock way back in the day. GREAT JOB, PETAR - GO MAN GO

[@seabud6408]

One of the few solos , that even when you see how it’s done (and very well done here !) you still can’t believe how he came up with it. Apparently he only had 20 minutes left of studio time and just went for an improvisation. Still my favourite Purple album and my favourite RB solo. Blackmore for me is a cross between the abandon of Hendrix and the technical but soulful playing of John McLaughlin in his Mahavishnu Orchestra days.

[@ozguruysal5792]

Petar my friend. I want to let you know how much you've inspired me. I picked up the guitar because of this. And when I can play this solo as well as you, I can say I've learnt to play the guitar. All the best ❤

[@sinisapetrovic4707]

I was always in awe of this solo. I don't know what scares me more, that Ritchie improvised it or composed it. These pentatonic licks and phrases have so many nuances and are so well articulated that it blows my mind. How did Ritchie come up with that stuff? I never even thought of trying to figure out and play that solo myself :)

[@agamemnon9918]

What even surprises me more is how Blackmore improvised all these solos, all with varying moods and feels, without making them feel improvised. Gates of Babylon, Spotlight kid, Light in the black, Stargazer, Mistreated, Wolf to the moon and others. Sure there are some lazy ones in his catalogue but, to create all these different interesting solos on the flight is just ridiculous.

[@aaronhowey4811]

I have to say that you nailed it buddy,your timing was off just a hair in a few parts of it but this version was the best ever recorded for Child in Time by Purple.I only heard Iommi play it exactly like this a few times,then the band altered the way it was played,for what reason I don't know,probably the difficulty factor on stage to get it bang on everytime was probably why.You nailed it my freind and it was a joy watching you play it through,I am going to learn it as you played it in your video,again thank you for the awesome display of guitarship.

A reply to all the people below who think Ritchie and this solo are overrated. It’s the most underrated solo because most rock fans only have the attention span and musical appreciation for AC/DC and the like. They are great at what they do. Most people haven’t heard Child in Time because they can’t be bothered with brilliant musicianship/wouldn’t know the difference between virtuoso level playing and basic/brilliant Angus Young. Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Eddie Van Halen all think Ritchie is brilliant/one of a kind. I saw him at his peak live with Purple on the Machine head tour in 1972 and on Rainbow’s 🌈 first tour in 1976. Still the 2 best rock gigs Ive ever seen. Apart from his playing Ritchie’s presence and performance was also the best I’ve seen.
