Deep Purple MK2 were the ultimate live rock band. They just jammed all the way through

[@ronnienose8608]

Greatest hard rock band in my opinion.

[@ricardoluistomasone4663]

DEEP PURPLE IS A LEGEND!!!!

[@kevinlundgren1169]

This is part of the reason why DEEP PURPLE has been my favorite for over 40 years !! They take me to another world , love it !!!! Yes , live is normally better , not always , but for Deep Purple , definitely live is the way to go !!

[@barryrammer7906]

Live they destroyed everyone else, even the overrated zeppelin. I saw all 3 in the 70s, including Black Sabbath. Deep Purple Live Only was the best.

[@Patrice-rs1jg]

Immense groupe 🎸👍👌👌👏👍👏👍👏👏👏👏👏

[@gatopersa7565]

Deep Purple is my favorite band!!! Thank you.

[@marioramirez9265]

Deep purple has no bad songs

[@barryrammer7906]

My friend Deep Purple is huge in the rest of the world. 130 million lps sold. Biggest band in the world 1973 in gate sales and lps sold. 1st in the world and better live than the studio.

[@richirich3916]

👍😊

[@wilks6]

For more Purple greatness: Space Truckin', Stormbringer, Speed King.

[@VoiceofApollos]

Is refreshing to see somebody young these days who listens to classic rock songs, especially of the 60s-70's, and really appreciate the sensational composition of musical/instrumental talent and skill performed! God bless you.

[@wesalker3479]

This song was WRITTEN IN TWENTY MINUTES as a response to a question about their creative process, from a reporter that was traveling with the band, while in transit. It was refined in rehearsal, upon arrival at the next venue and performed THAT NIGHT, live.

[@larteonceagain]

This is audio from Made In Japan, the video it's from Denmark. Ritchie doesn't play his classic guitarsolo in Denmark. But since you like it live, listen to the whole Made In Japan, it unbelievable.

[@BeeLineEast]

Deep Purple Lazy live in Copenhagen 1972 is a one you should react to. Every member of this band is an excellent musician. Ian Gillian does a harmonica solo in this live jam.

[@VIDSTORAGE]

Led Zep got the bigger share of the love back then but Deep Purple on a bad night could hammer it down like no one could , as you say all the members took it to another level and Lord played that Hammond B-3 to shreds, he was a butcher on that thing . He came up with so many styles and bizarre sounds,, sometimes it sounds like a diesel engine rumble at idle ..

[@lindapease620]

Saw them live in the '70's. Tightest band ever.

[@Tuesdays_Gone]

Ian’s vocals are phenomenal. I read where his wife passed away last week. I’ve been a fan since I was a baby. LOL. Loved them all of my life. 🎶❤️🎶❤️

[@elainehughes3253]

Purple, Sabbath and Zeppelin made up the soundtrack to my teenage years. They don't make musicians like that any more!

[@Isleofskye]

Deep Purple at The: Royal Albert Hall debuting this...25 PENCE and Led Zeppelin around 1975 at Empire Pool, Wembley: 75 PENCE. Pink Floyd took a liberty by charging 18,000 of us £1 at Earls Court in 1973 when presenting Dark Side Of The Moon... So 3 World Class Groups at major London venues for £2 and Creedence Clearwater Revival was also 25 Pence at The Royal Albert Hall:)

[@deepthrow-jn8ij]

The best times in music

[@PhilAlumb]

Groups in the 60s and 70s were in..Another category.

[@nickfilleul3463]

This is arguably the greatest live album of all time. The energy, the musicianship, the arrangements (which they changed each time they performed live), the place, the time, the songs and the often unmentioned genius of the sound engineer. The planets aligned for the album "Made in Japan" and the back story to the album and it not being wanted or desired by the band (live albums were almost non existent at the time) makes it all the more remarkable. If you do nothing else dig out Made in Japan and listen to the whole album. Like Dark Side of the Moon it is a monster and you will be bewildered as to which track to choose as favourite.

[@barryrammer7906]

Agreed 👍

[@nathanielcampbell3488]

Live vs Studio is one of those things where both have advantages and disadvantages so both are important. With this track as an example this live version is fantastic, the band is so proficient and practiced at playing and playing together and it’s incredible to watch them too, it really allows for some spontaneous musical moments. The studio version allows the band to really pay attention to the details of a song and fine tune it, I really like the “industrial sound” of Jon Lord’s organ in the studio version. Also I really enjoyed this reaction and how you are getting to know the band’s members and taking into consideration the musical landscape of the time. Thank you

[@stevedahlberg8680]

As a long time musician and music lover, obviously there are no Ironclad rules but my general approach I would suggest to people that are new to something like this? I would say I always listen to the studio Cup first and get to know it as we all used to know it hearing it on the radio buying the album all that stuff. Cuz now this stuff was available forever you know and then later if you really like a certain song well then go check out the live version of it it's a flush out your image of it and there's another advantage to this as well. We just listen to the studio cut, and don't pick one with some stupid video with it, that way your attention is 100% on listening and not divided out with Video Entertainment and it's just the way it works is when you're looking at something you simply cannot pay full attention to the music. But once you get the idea well then why not, go watch live thing and imagine wow what would have been like to been there you know? Anyway that's just my two cents. No rules obviously.

[@AGDinCA]

*DEEP PURPLE fun fact:* ---------------- How's this for an interesting statistic... Deep Purple has put out at least one album in each of the last seven (7!!) decades that charted at #20 or higher, somewhere in the world. The first to reach a Top 20 spot was released in 1968, and the most recent was released in 2020. Each of those points is remarkable alone, but combined it's absolutely awe-inspiring! Starting in the late 60s, through 2021, Deep Purple has released 22 studio albums, the last of which just dropped November, 2021.

[@garyarnett1220]

And Paice was the drummer on every track.

[@Eurynomea]

Hair slinging is a type of "head space" for serious musicians. And when they close their eyes, they've literally left their bodies, lol. I love watching them come back down to earth at the end of a song. Plus, Ian KNEW he was sexy and played on that fact.

[@clintlandrum9498]

If I remember correctly, this song was written as deep purple was on their first American tour. DP was knocked out by our highways and our love affair with our cars. They got the biggest kick out of it and wrote this song

[@jamaljasim9735]

The best reaction for the best band

[@ellenmyers971]

Right on love you an Deep Purple 💜💜💜

[@richmurgatroyd3584]

Went to see the remaining purple last November ,2022 in Leeds Uk .Paice ,Glover and Gillan still got it 👍🏻🎸🎸

[@RJ-oy7cq]

Rockers from 60's to even today--lots had long hair. It's a rock thing.

[@phogandivephogandive3885]

FYI, Ian Gillan also sang the role of Jesus in the original Jesus Christ Superstar. Here he is doing the song Gethsemane: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYDNqnqvZrOFars Full double CD set of concert: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZ6sXpyod9eki9E

[@MrFrikkenfrakken]

Zep, Sabbath, Purple and Uriah Heep form a powerful wall of sounds and styles to explore. Fantastic talent.

[@pamelawertz498]

If Deep Purple ever comes around you again, you HAVE to see them. They are in their late 70's and will blow you away. I saw them last month. This was the first song they played. Ian still plays drums the whole concert like that. I don't know how. It is amazing.

[@carstengrutzmann8884]

This was the early 70`s, Hippie time, best time ever

[@modejar2022]

I recommend more songs from that era specially BLACK NIGHT LIVE 1972

[@Eurynomea]

I had to learn this bass line in 1 week, lol. I was a replacement in my instructor's band for a performance at a festival. DP is a real passion for me.

[@frankpentangeli7945]

The video and audio are from two separate concerts. They were mashed together by someone on KZbin. The audio is taken directly from the Made in Japan album, for which there's no clear, directly related video.

[@richirich3916]

A new Fan is born😏

[@AAndromeda-lw7fh]

Yes, there are other bands and not only Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, Black S. etc - there is also Deep Purple and they've been making damn good music since 1968... especially from 1969 to 1975 the best songs for me! … Sorry to anyone who hasn't heard Deep Purple as you're missing out on a lot!! 🎸🎹🥁🎤

[@barryrammer7906]

Shame on them and a treat for us rock on 🤘

[@garymullman8028]

This reaction is what most of us feel too. Thank you.

[@AAndromeda-lw7fh]

Rock music is explained like this: There's a lead guitar, an organ, a bass, a singer, a drummer... and there's DEEP PURPLE!!! A MASTERPIECE 💎 !! There is nothing more to say! ... 🎸🎹🥁🎤 Thank you

[@jamesraleigh4299]

YOU Get It Man!!! In DEEP PURPLE, everyone in the band is a MONSTER!!!! Like you said -- "They ALL goin' crazy!!!!" 🙂

[@jonsmith6982]

Well you can go see Deep Purple live right now still 2023 they are playing in the usa ,,that crazy aye .

[@Tune-O-matic]

Studio is for the music--Live Concerts are for the excitement..

[@eloisesmith8256]

Great reaction.Ritchie Blackmoore is a very versatile guitarist.You should listen to all their albums.Including Rainbow

[@georgemartin1436]

You'll be getting the 25K soon...100K will be easier than the first 25K.

[@johnwoods6527]

I just want to tell you that you have some of my favorite reactions, you actually feel the music instead of pretending that you feel it. I enjoy watching you more than any "first reactors" Thank You

[@peterdawes1868]

In 1969 I was 11 and there were three or four bands my four years older brother listened to. Zepplin, Purple, Sabbath and Jethro Tull. I, being the kid brother listened to them nonstop and, eventually got all of his records when he left home. Still have 'em all and listen to them regularly.

[@Randor10]

I’ve been listening to this album for 50 years. I’ve heard it so many times that I know every note from every song, all the nuances. There’s no better run up to a song on the planet.

[@larpeiro1]

Many, many, many speeding tickets have been accumulated over the years as this song's thumping on you speakers. IMPOSSIBLE not to speed.

[@erichmartin4530]

Good stuff mamann

[@robsco1249]

Speed King live Nec 2002 DVD. One of the greatest live performances ever...

[@clintlandrum9498]

MMB, I absolutely love your reaction to "highway star." This is the song you listen to if you're an athlete getting ready for the big game. This song absolutely RAWKS! \m/

[@frankpentangeli7945]

In a live setting Deep Purple beats the shit out of both Zeppelin and Sabbath. They were FIRE.

[@telukpaku4296]

Mount Rushmore of rock....

[@gracemichelli.2am124]

Love your reactions to these rock bands. 🥰

[@gartorres3740]

Highway Star live 1984 is amazing too man

[@timbennick3506]

Deep Purple and Uriah Heep, great show, great times

[@sheila1965troubles]

They were always smart to hire exceptional singers and players. Soundtrack of my childhood. The long hair was a Hippie thing. Letting their freak flags fly! Hair bands were an 80s thing. Now, listen to their song Burn live and really get your mind blown.

[@telukpaku4296]

Woooooohhh !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@AngryPostmanStockholm]

They are a factory - all systems go!

[@ganuv]

Blackmore Moore and Hendrix are the greatest of them all !!!!

[@anthonyjd6097]

Live this might be the best performance ever by any band they can’t be touched made in Japan, I’m 63 & have really good, but this is greatness!

[@waynedavenport6053]

You should watch them do their song 'Lazy' done at the same concert as 'Child in Time' you will not be dissappointed!

[@JoelNicasio-m5n]

One of the Best reactions i ve seen so far! You got It! You really dig my kind of music! I really like the new generations to enjoy what we have Back there. Thanks.

[@terryross1032]

This gig was recorded just after they finished "Machine Head", so all songs were fresh and embedded in their minds. Lucky people who were there.

[@blitztim6416]

Get you a wig to do some hair slinging. Lol. It’s fun. I’m going to suggest ‘Woman from Tokyo’ or ‘Pictures of Home’ Deep Purple was headliner of my first concert in ‘74.

[@kympeplau1635]

I enjoy your reactions to Deep Purple and the care you take in getting to know the band members as well as the little things you notice in the music. You really do have a good ear for music. Also you asked what Ian Paice was doing on the drums at one point. It’s a drum roll and drummers use it to accent a part in the musical piece or when switching time signatures or or just anytime they feel the need for a drum fill. Deep Purple, Zep, Black Sabbath, and Alice Cooper were my go to bands in high school. Regarding the hair, they were not part of the ‘hair band’ craze in the 1980’s. Those were the long haired bands who ratted and used a lot of hairspray in their long hair. The bands in the 60’s and 70’s with long hair actually started with the Beatles. The Beatles were said to be mop tops because of their long bangs and hair that went down their necks a little bit. Then bands just started letting their hair down. 😂and it got longer and longer till it was longer than some of us girls. And we all loved it! I love rock music from the 60’s starting with the Beatles through now. I enjoy other types of music too. Music speaks to your soul, your very being, and it brings us all together.

[@stevesharpe361]

Has there ever been a better concert opening song? Yes that's right that was their opening song.

[@tomasbogado2250]

Deep purple - Lazy (made in japan)

[@uncnorseman2670]

NO ONE was better live, at least the Mark II line-up. This is the Made In Japan recording (not sure about the footage), but, for me, they were the live standard that no one else could match. And yes, their studio was a step or two below this, as good as those versions were. I don't remember much of the Burn tour I got to see of the Mark III line-up... No problem, they couldn't match this line-up.

[@maxmeister5064]

The footage is from Denmark, early 1972.

[@barryrammer7906]

Yup, California jam proved that. Just as good to me in their own way.

[@yozaseig3870]

You might be interested to know that Ian Gillan became the vocalist for Sabbath for a stint in 1983/4 before he returned to Deep Purple. He thrashed his voice hard in that period but you should try take a listen to some of those songs from Born Again album.

[@drums632]

Great reaction! It's cool to see your generation digging on the true great hard rock bands of my youth.

[@joescott8877]

Long hair was a "hippie" thing, in the late 60's and early 70's. "Hair Band" was an 80's thing, kind of an extension or evolution of "Glam Rock." "Big Hair" was athing with guys and gals, in rock and elsewhere. Check out the movies from that era, lol! But yeah, Highway Star is made for swingin' yer head in rhythm, hair or not! Pity we only HEARD Blackmore's sweetly killer shred solo here and didn't SEE much of it! TF, cameraman? LOL. But it's all good. The alchemy of this band is unreal.

[@ponytrekker8996]

You’ll love space Truckin live 1973 Hofstra University in New York..in color

[@TTTT-oc4eb]

Excellent and funny reaction! The live version of "Child in Time" from "Made in Japan" is even better than the one you reacted to. This album also has the definitive version of "Smoke on the Water". This version of "Highway Star" is also from this album. Of their best songs I would say that studio version is better than the live version: Speed King Fireball Black Night (although the live version is very good, too) Woman from Tokyo Burn Stormbringer

[@Richard-g7e3s]

My favorite Deep Purple song!

[@thomasreid4063]

YEA man lets go and dude Richie showed us why they were the loudest band in ROCK when this teenager went to Music hall in 73...Ian was the only left handed drummer I knew of, as I was one as well...the Deep laid down some heavy organ with Ian just moving the beat on && on. where Zep had that memphis blues element infused into their jams, but Deep Purple had the fast tempo that the girls loved...keep on rockin, Lad

[@dougca7086]

That's what you call traveling music

[@tomasbogado2250]

That s made in japan version, you have to listen the hole album!!

[@mitzifrancis9843]

Ian Gillan performed the part of Jesus in the 1970s "rock opera" Jesus Christ Superstar. Some day please take a couple of hours and listen to it straight through. You'll thank God you did!

[@heidiv5488]

I truly believe that Ian's "Gethsemane" is the greatest rock vocal of all time.

[@starlightshimmery]

Same. I knew Ian from Superstar before I ever knew Deep Purple so I came from the other direction discovering his voice. He is the most stunning emotive vocalist.

[@MrMoon1953]

To get a good taste of the drums, check out The Mule by Deep Purple.

[@maxmeister5064]

The caption of the clip just made me curious WHAT version of Highway Star it would be...and yes, it would be the one Made In Japan!!! The reaction to which is almost never ending RIGHTLY SO cos there's just so much there! And at that sort of frantic speed to boot - it's just awesome. At that time, every one of the quintet was simply top notch in his field. You doubt me you haven't listened. The one little thing though, is that the audio and the visual are not identical here. There sadly exists no footage of them performing Highway Star on the 2nd Made In Japan show, only from the 1st one but that didn't appear on the record. So they backed it with a clip of the same song from earlier 1972 somewhere in Mainland Europe, it think it was Copenhagen - welcome to correct me if I'm wrong - having had to iron out some minor synchronity inconsistencies. Well, as such, great work. And the music speaks for itself.

[@joelombrdo]

The audio is from Made In Japan but the video is Copenhagen

[@garyarnett1220]

The thing that upset me in this video, one of the greatest guitarists ever, and they don't bother to catch his solo on camera. Bro ! Welcome to the world of DP. 3 of the 5 are still out there doing it, and sounding good.

[@genabourassa7962]

David Coverdale is no Ian Gillan even with Glen Huges singing they are not Ian Gillan

[@dannyworten5876]

You should try Smoke On The Water it’s probably their most iconic song

[@stevesharpe361]

Lazy & Space Truckin both from MIJ

[@rachelpsmith3129]

Not well known today was a band called Mountain. They went hard too and most folks only ever hear one song, Mississippi Queen. That is a great great song of course. But there were quite a few others.

[@patrickhendrikskingston9303]

Roger glover had a famous solo hit: all you need is love and understanding. From the cartoon with the dancing animals.

[@FunFunRene]

Can you imagine that we “old” people are disappointed about the current music scene The grammies: fast forward 5 minutes, the last time something good came out were : the Alabama shakes, got their CD right away, you should check them out: their hit-song: don’t wanna fight.

[@Jaggedknife11]

I love this reaction. constantly replying the best, most intense parts, reminds me of when i first heard it. Check out the Made in Japan record in it's entirety. it's probably the best live rock record ever and features the best versions of many DP classics.

[@Gnohm23]

I really enjoyed your reaction video, to me the riff at the end of the organ solo reminds me of “I’m Crying” by the Animals.

[@royjones4144]

Ritchie is the best. Great with Ronnie J Dio. Stargazer 😮 You've inspired me to get hair extensions!

[@DGSPhoto]

Ah - the speeding ticket song! Written on the tour bus on the way to a gig after request from a press member travelling with them - practiced at the soundcheck - then played at the gig! Any other bands do that? Always better live, but would suggest Stargazer by Blackmore's Rainbow next - the one exception to the rule!

[@johnwoods6527]

The hair was just a sign the times, we use to wish we had hair like that 😅

[@billdemudd6697]

sounds like snare fills man? quick rolls

[@SatWiseJanx]

So on point about Deep Purple being the best live band and more virtuosity than Zep and Sabbath. Always play a live vs studio with Deep Purple and you can't lose.

[@sharonelliott2366]

And btw, Purple isn't a "hair band". Those started in the 80s. We just had great hair in the 60s and 70s 🤣

[@Isleofskye]

Deep Purple at The: Royal Albert Hall debuting this...25 PENCE and Led Zeppelin around 1975 at Empire Pool, Wembley: 75 PENCE. Pink Floyd took a liberty by charging 18,000 of us £1 at Earls Court in 1973 when presenting Dark Side Of The Moon... So 3 World Class Groups at major London venues for £2 or Under 3 Dollars..and Creedence Clearwater Revival was also 25 Pence at The Royal Albert Hall:)

[@Suldog29]

OK, you're hearing the version from when they played in Japan, but the video is from a performance in Denmark. Not a bad synching by whoever did it. Anyway, this was the first Deep Purple song I ever heard and I was blown away. This song pretty much invented the "speed metal" genre. And Ritchie's solo is definitely ranked as one of the finest ever played. I would also say that Ian Paice's fills on this song are magnificent. Glad you like it.

[@ellenmyers971]

You now need to listen to Richie Blackmore's RAINBOW 🌈🌈 and another really good Band is URIAH HEEP ,I KNOW YOU WILL LOVE THERE MUSIC ALSO KEEP ROCKIN Sweetie you have a lot of good bands to check out !! Take care 💯🌟🎶🌹🙏✌️❣️😉😋☃️🎄🤩💜🌈

[@unclephil7650]

In my opinion you should listen to the studio version first because that is the way the artist intended for you to hear it. That way when you hear the live version you can appreciate the difference

[@modejar2022]

This is a great Purple Song, and the base of speed metal, as lately was known, the solos are incredible and yes Deep Purple is a band to enjoy on stage, not on the studio, they sound so much better in concert, because they were made for this. It's not the same with other bands, Zeppelin for example sounds much better in the studio, because they made so dressed up songs with lots of guitars, and other instruments they cannot play in concert. So DEEP PURPLE is the band to enjoy live.

[@fleemwings207]

I agree that Deep Purple is best "live" - Made In Japan is my most listened to album.

[@howarddickson8856]

Great reaction some people get it some don't. I got it powerful music! Try driving the speed limit with that song on the raido.

[@thetruthhurts6652]

I got into all those 70s bands at the same time but Purple was the only band that got going back to the same songs for different reasons. All 5 were powerhouses and to me no other band jammed like they did.
