The reason why Ian not imitating the guitar riff on 12.38 is because it's from their track Burn, sung by David Coverdale, that was the new singer when ian left the band due to problems. Speed King is one of their earlier tracks, Speed king is from 1970 and Battle Rages On from 1993.

[@michaelthain4488]

Love Deep Purple. Saw them way back in the 70's. Richie Blackmore's guitar playing was awesome. One of my favourite live albums is Made in Japan a double live album recorded during their first tour of Japan in August 1972.

[@mandyfox2962]

Pretty much all Deep Purple songs start in a jam session. And they still do it today!

[@chuchoragnar6566]

Impossible believe you never eared before , the best rock band 🎸 of all times Deep Purple.

[@AAndromeda-lw7fh]

… Many wanted to play lead guitar like R. Blackmore! He was also a role model for many rock musicians! ... and how quickly many forget where they got it from!!!

[@oldtimer7635]

Well, he's a young lad. ; )

[@kent-oveprestberg3578]

Ian Paice....one of the best rock drummers of all time.

I met Ian Paice in 1982 in Frankfurt at one of his drum clinics ;) Also a nice guy ;)

They are such great musicians which is the reason they are so good live!!

Loved Deep Purple since the early 70's but sadly never got to see them live. Kinda sad that they aren't as well known today as I assumed they were but I'm 62 this year so many of my assumptions are wrong! The best thing is to see that another generation is still appreciating their musical skills and loving what they see so thanks for spreading the word. There's a wealth of Rock, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal (coz that was the only Metal genre then!) bands from the 70's - Sabbath, Deep Purple, Hawkwind, Motorhead, AC/DC, Judas Priest, Free, Bad Company, Zappa, Rolling Stones, Zeppelin to name a few. I'd imagine the biggest difference between audiences then and now is that, back then, everyone was watching and listening and dancing to the band from start to finish. Without having to film it badly, tweet it or post it anywhere! Classic Purple tracks would have to include Black Night and one of THE great Rock riffs in Smoke On The Water or the very extended guitar solos in Child In Time.

[@johnager6226]

Back in the days when rock bands wrote their albums at the recording studio. (they all have their own studios now probably) It always surprises me when reactors are seeing these classic rock bands for the first time, that they don't know anything about them. Then I realise how old I am. (57) I grew up when all these bands where appearing regularly in the mainstream charts. Great reaction, thanks Cheezy. ❤✌🤘

[@sergioominetti8516]

HA! Same here... I'm 58 and saw them live twice. What a band! And yeah, it is crazy when people see or hear them for the first time...

[@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!!! There is nothing more to say! ... 🎸🎹🥁🎤 Thank you

[@ricardoluistomasone4663]

Totalmente de acuerdo con vos!!!

[@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!! 🎸🎹🥁🎤 Thank you

[@hiawatha.g]

Deep Purple were such a big part of our soundtrack then, it's hard to imagine metal fans who've never heard them. They were doing this before the term "heavy metal" was used for this sort of music. Ritchie Blackmore essentially invented the metal shred solo, with his epic solo in "Highway Star". Today's shredders are much faster, but at the time, he was completely groundbreaking. And Ian Gillan, along with Dio and Bruce Dickinson, invented metal vocals. I was lucky enough to see them twice at their height. Serious hearing loss ensued.

[@phoenixrising5088]

I saw them play in the Caird Hall in Dundee 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 in 1971. I was 16. The term we used for Bands like DP Led Zeppelin, Ten years after, King Crimson, were called Rock Bands, playing Underground music. All this music was listened to by Hippies.

[@Divedown_25]

Deep purple Made in Japan from 1972… that’s music

[@jalkabre5904]

Deep dive needed for Deep Purple. Legendary band and masters at their instruments. The group eventually lead to other projects with new and old groups like Rainbow (Stargazer is a must listen), WhiteSnake, and Black Sabbath.

[@akasetkya6253]

FrommageXYZ, Deep Purple was a staple for the 70’s, Machine Head one of the greatest Rock albums of all time, phenomenal musicians, & Ian Gillan what a screamer.

[@ingridgabelo2934]

Deep Purple, mi banda favorita!! 💜💜💜💜💜

[@AGDinCA]

Love Deep Purple 💜💜

[@gunnelalmge7543]

Best band in the world ever!!! Still touring, still making new amazing music. Now with their fifth guitarist, alla of them superb. Ritchie is king BUT I love Steve Morse. His soft tones just hits home with me. You should react to "Sometimes I feel like screamin´" live at Royal Albert Hall. That shows Morse at his absolute best.

[@oldtimer7635]

Ian Paice and Glover there in the middle holding that whole thing together! : ) That's called artistry, I believe... ; )

I've only really heard of Smoke on the Water and maybe 1 other. This was definitely my first time seeing what they look like. I'm excited to hear more from them 😎🧀🤘

[@Beldvlmnt]

@@Cheezyxyz they were accredited as performing the loudest concert in history for a while 😂😂

[@Cheezyxyz]

What?! That's awesome

[@BadCowboy67]

@@Cheezyxyz Ok so it's not that you haven't heard of them it's more your tag line to say Who Are whatever group you're reacting to. I was gonna ask who hasn't heard of Deep Purple and how old are you because I don't know anyone who hasn't heard of them. My 15 year old grandson knows more about them than I do, but I know who they are and have since I can remember being in my mid 50's.

[@antoniocarlin5026]

Thats a Stupid question!!! pd.- I saw them for first time next year from this show...1994 (6 times LIVE in my life...the last one: 2018 with Scorpions, Judas Priest and Ozzy Osbourne) :)

[@davidmcglone7442]

Glad you like my favourite band. There are many, many more great songs.

[@robsco1249]

The Battle rages on is a stunning underrated song.

[@dregeye]

I only saw Deep Purple LIVE twice, consecutive nights, Oct '68 opening for Cream on their farewell tour, Inglewood, Ca (The Forum). Very impressed with Ian Paice & Jon Lord. Richie, not so much at the time, but as he is an inspiration for Miyako, I am grateful for his contributions. The Deep Purple portion of the first show is on u2b. OK audio. Video 'better than nothing'. Lots of 'cover songs' at that show. Their originals are much better, imo. "Mandrake Root" caught my ear ... "In Rock" was the album that 'convinced me' of the band.

[@danallshaw1131]

After 50 years I have all their slow dance dance songs.😎🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@phoenixrising5088]

I saw them in 1970 in Dundee Scotland. I was 16 abd this was the first live Band I had seen.They blew my innocent mind 😂 🌠💫 It would be great to hear "Child in time." It was phenomenal.🤯

[@sergiaopiccioni]

Ian Paice, the best

[@AAndromeda-lw7fh]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@notgivennotgiven7776]

Steve Morse put fire back in the band when he joined. Speed King is the name of the drum pedal that Ian Paice used and they made a song just from that. Peace

[@Markhypnosis1]

I can barely see what line up you're reacting to, but it looks like a modern version without Ritchie Blackmore. I don't know who told you to react to this one. But with older bands like this, always choose either the studio version or a live version from the time the track was released. You only really get sense of the power and uniqueness of their music at this period this way. I can't bear to watch them when they're old, and missing most of their key original members.

[@michaelkarlsson5966]

Sounds like Steve Morse on guitar. Great stuff but as you say, he should've reacted to an older recording, preferably with mk II line-up :)

[@dregeye]

First song is 1996 with Steve Morse, as Michael writes. Second is from Richie's last tour with the band in 1993. Speed King, written in '69, studio recording in January '70. That's 26 years later, but only difference at that time appears to be Morse instead of Blackmore, surprisingly.

[@AAndromeda-lw7fh]

Yes, you should always listen to the studio version first and then "Made in Japan"!! 😆

[@phoenixrising5088]

Child in time, is an awesome number. That blue my mind in 1970 when i saw them in Scotland, age 16. They took the roof off.

Hi, how about playing something from the late, great Rory Gallagher. A brilliant guitarist and a great band from Ireland . Sadly Rory died way too soon. About 25 years ago. Bad Penny is a brilliant number. But there are many. Would Greatly appreciate it. Thank you in anticipation. 😘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Dude listen to the MK2 line up albums..... Their earlier days were 1967 - 1976. Then 1981 - 85 then a few lineup changes and deaths....read up on their history.

this performance of speed king is with don airy replacing rip jon lord and Steve mores replacing richi blackmore they are pretty good but not as good as the original ( in rock version 1970 ) and the battle rages on 1992

[@oldtimer7635]

Seems/sounds to me that there's Coverdale with his nasal intonation......so....not the best lineup.

[@ganuv]

I’m sorry but Steve Morse can never be compared to the great Ritchie Blackmore, never ! Deep purple is a band that’s defined by 5 individuals, Blackmore Ian gillan glover and lord and no one else , all the other members were just substitutes to Cary on.

[@kasperkjrsgaard1447]

Actually Gillan and Glover were substitutes too. They replaced Nicky Simper and Rod Evans and Deep Purple turned into somethinh better - just as when Blackmore left and Deep Purple first had Joe Satriani and then Steve Morse and turned into something better.
