- / @nickfoleyuk Good morning,
Frosty one today, hope you are all well and good and looking forward to the week ahead? (well maybe not that last part perhaps?).
Anyway, I have had a lot of people request this one over the years and I thought I would bite the bullet and show you how I, at least, have tackled this iconic Deep Purple song - BURN!
I have played this in my tribute band Pure Purple and we have played if with @atackband to good affect too, all be it in rehearsals.
I'll go through the song live for you and then dissect it from start to finish and explain all the organ sections that I play (along with some of the cheats!).
I would love to hear how you tackle it too?
the basic shape of the track is referenced here:
tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/...
If you would like a breakdown of the guitar solo I can facilitate that for you too so do let me know ;-)
...and if you want to see the remote lockdown song and video that me and and few confined musicians came up with let me know and I might put it up as a little bonus material in the week! More from me exclusively at / nickfoleyuk
I passed a pub in Ipswich advertising Deep Purple, I thought it can't be 'the' deep purple. It was. It was also the last time Jon Lord played. Gutted. Legend. Thanks for the experience
As a keyboard player who was raised on Deep Purple… it’s such an overwhelming honour to have a real birds-eye view of what’s going on behind the wheel of a real Hammond.
You simply don’t find content like this.
It’s fascinating on so many levels.
That’s the plan Adam, thanks
This was awesome, i've searched for a good breakdown for this song for so long. GREAT job!! Thank You! speed was fine!
Thank you MG
Already saved this to watch over and over again. Great work, man! Keep 'em coming
Thank you!
I really appreciate this. I’m a huge Jon lord fan, and this video will be so helpful to keep working on learn how to play it!
Cheers mate
Thanks teacher Nick...Bravo!!!
I love the way you think this is less than marvellous. I LOVE it mate, you are a star, Thank you!
That’s kind, thanks
This was so freaking awesome to watch!!!
Thank you mate
Thanks Nick, I really enjoyed and learning from your explenation. Jon Lord is and was my absolute number one on Hammond Organ. Incredible technic and 'creativity' is needed, awesome.
Thanks mate
Brilliant! Learnt so much and very entertaining and captivating performance. Thanks! 😎
Thank you!
Thanks for another great tutorial, Nick, it really sounds like Jon's Hammond!
Thank you!
Great video! Thanks alot Nick 🎹 🎹 🎹 🎹 🎹
My pleasure!
Great video! Always love to see how other players tackle this monster tune
Thanks. It might not be 100% there but, as you say, it is there
@@nickfoleyuk Looks pretty good to me! There are so many different versions to draw from I love to see which bits you pick - very different from how I do it, but that's mostly because I don't have a real Hammond!
Thank you so much Nik !!! nice demo ...!!! Greetings from Serbia !!!!
Thank you mate
Jon would love that. Awesome.
Superb
Thanks 🤗
Super!
Thank you! Cheers!
Nick, this is absolutely incredible! Great lesson! I love your interpretation of this fantastic Purple classic! How about "Might Just Take Your Life"?
Great suggestion, I love that song. A few interpretations too. Thanks for your feedback, I do this for the love of it so it means a lot
Wow!! 😊
Great one, nice to see this as I always really liked this tune. I`ve always had quite a wide spectrum of music that influences me as a musician/composer from Rock to Thrash Metal and some types of electronic music through the ages too. As a Guitar Player my personal hero is Gary Holt from Exodus and Slayer but as for keyboards, any type/genre my hero is good old John Lord and his Rock Organ ..... just wished that I could play like him too ha ha........ still it`s great to see an overhead view of this being played at least I guess, cheers
Thank you
Great cover one of the best I've heard! And thank, whoever:-), no squirming Glenn Hughes high pitching that he always insists doing live.
Glad you enjoyed it! My wife was singing the Glen Hughes part - shes so talented!
Awesome Hammond Playing Nick !
Thanks mate
Jon Lord of the Organ.
Jon Lord, no pun intended, was the lord of the keys 🎹 as he could play a Hammond B3
Love these Jon Lord videos man. I’ve got a quick question. I have a Hammond M100 and don’t have a Leslie of any kind. What’s the most affordable way for me to get my M100 sounding like a Jon Lord B3?
A couple of ways mate. If you can get a quarter inch output the Neo Ventilator pedal is pretty impressive. Does Leslie emulation as well as overdrive.
The cheapest of the Leslie’s used to be the solid state 760 that’s pretty good. Big old beasts but great.
Very interesting to watch this. (I play rock guitar for fun, but am a classically trained pianist and teach advanced piano students). Always loved the Jon Lord Hammond sound, especially the Highway Star intro on made in Japan. To me his sound is characterised by invariably very basic left hand approach and mainly chordal and arpeggiated right hand that is quite straightforward once the chords are clear. I was surprised by the amount of waterfall (do you call it that?) sweeping up and down the keys. Is that what he did on Burn? That aspect gets a tad wearing when you listen to the mix with the organ to the forefront. Must place a lot of wear on the keys? Nice channel. Have subscribed.
Thank you mate. I try and get it as accurate as I am able
Great video Nick. I used to be in a band that did about 5 or 6 Purple covers back in the 80's. One thing I could never figure out on the keyboard was when Lord and Blackmore played that really fast lick together that would mark the end of Space Truckin' or Wring That Neck (both the live versions). Do you know what I'm on about? Sounded almost arpeggio like. Would love to work that one out.
I think I do. Did it ever appear after the drum solo in The Mule too?
@Jeremy if I'm on the bit you mean, I just play the chords and let the guitarist do the work. The chords are: D A C G F G Em Em x2
@@andykeys74 Yes, those are the root notes and chords and the same thing I played as I couldn't figure out the right hand. Lord played the right hand part live and I always wanted to emulate it. It's also on the studio version of Mandrake Root at the end of the keyboard solo but it sounds like Blackmore plays it alone. @Nick Foley - I know what you're on about but believe it was a different dual lick after the drum solo in the live Mule and I eventually figured that one out. Thanks for your responses.
@jeremy and @nick I stumbled across a pdf that suggests the notes are:
D: | a' f# d a
A: | a' e c# a
C: | g' e c g
G: | g' d b g
F: | f' c a f
G: | g' d b g
Em: | e' b g b
Em: | e [all x2]
I'm off to give it a try... 🤓
Thank you for the explanation!
Using overdrive?
I'm sorry if I missed you
Yes. A Profkon ZD-1. I have a video about it in my channel
@@nickfoleyuk
thank you for teaching me!
My favourite JL solo! I could never figure out what he was playing, so thanks for your tutorial! :)
Why did you pull the 1“ drawbar out for the solo while percussion is on? Is your C3 modified?
Thanks Ray! There’s plenty more knocking about on my channel. I had another look all be it on my phone and I don’t think the percussion is on. If it was then it shouldn’t have been lol
@@nickfoleyuk Oops, you‘re right, percussion is off. Sorry.
Love the demo, Nick; very helpful! Do you move your B3 when “Pure Purple” plays out, or…?
I have done Sid but almost exclusively I take my Hammond XK-5 with a Leslie 3300 and a Marshall Plexi combo. I use an AB/Y pedal to switch from one to the other depending on the song
Incredible sound sir!
Can you give me an advice, whats a good organ for beginners?whats the minimal budget to play some deep purple stuff like this.i would like to start playing organ.
Greetings from Germany
Hello! There are so many around to choose from. A second hand Roland VK is a good start, or Crumar mojo.
I’m reviewing a Mojo hopefully next week so keep an eye out for that.
The Yamaha CK-61 has good organ too. I’m reviewing that this week on my channel
@@nickfoleyuk thank you very much.i keep both eyes on those reviews =)
Love your videos! #WhatInspiresMe #Music 😎 😍 🎵
So glad!
Bellissimo video sinceri complimenti. Italy
Very useful thanks. Clearly I’m not going to be able to do that but I’ll give it a go .
Any other DP songs you could slow down would be great ……child in time
I could have a go at Child in Tome for you if you want.
Amazing.
..didnt play the lick 'in' @4:40?
Excellent 🙂 I hope you haven´t done it already, but Lazy is one of their best songs.
I might do a few as this one seems to have gone down very well
a w e s o m e
Thank you mate
Great... But in the guitar solo, the 4th chord is B flat, not A minor. And it's a pity that the main part of the organ solo was not played. Otherwise great, your hammond sounds cool! )))
Thank you mate. Didn’t think I played an Am, I’ll check that. Cheers
Yes, 4th is B-flat (and 2th is Cm, not E-flat, but bass is E-flat)
@@nickfoleyuk You see, I meant the second part of the solo, where chords are played note by note... I noticed when you explained about the same part in the organ solo. Cheers
@@montevova Yes, it is true. But in the original, only Richie plays C minor, and Lord holds a full chord of E flat major, he does not cut it off at notes. I mean studio version sure, not Made in Europe. In live version Jon plays C minor as well.
Great Hammond organ tutorials: please go on with new song tutorial & licks 😊❤😊😊😊
What overdrive are you using
Hi Jeff, I have another video on my channel about it, its a Profkon ZD-1. I am tempted to make a video on my signal chain soon too
@@nickfoleyukI’m learning a lot from your vids. I stopped playing for some time but watching your vids has got me motivated again. Many thanks👍👍
I am selling a Roland Juno DS61 on FB in like new condition. It’s a great keyboard, but too much for me!
он просто играл на том, что было ))
Alla fine dell'assolo principale, perché fai solo l'arpeggio degli accordi...??? C'è una bella parte di organo....anche molto conosciuta....perché non la fai...??
Ciao.
Ps. Sono un organista di una Deep Purple Teibute Band!
Non lo suono bene, voglio dimostrartelo, ho paura
😅 great job but how about wooly bully watch it now rock on
Awesome playing, nailed it. Jon Lord would be proud. Your guitarists tone is way too fizzy and distorted, nothing like Blackmore’s tone.
5:43 this is wrong ! What are you doing why?
How is it wrong
@@zeldafan9016 It's wrong nicely!
are you playing over a a prerecorded track of some kind be it the original or a backing track ? i suspect the latter as the vocal sounds a tad iffy…... only i can hear palm slides that you are definatly not playing……. best to post the real thing dont hide behind a prerecorded track
I am playing over a track that I recorded with my friends in order to demonstrate the song. The only organ on the track as I recall is the actual organ being played in front of you. Hope it helps.
not really as i can see the notes your playing do not correspond with the notes im hearing….mainly under the gtr solo at 4.30 but even more obvious at 4.42 where the is an organ riff and you not even touching the keys … me thinks your miming to a track you’re pre recorded ……. have more confidence in your abilities
Не точная партия органа.
I'm no expert but the drummer sounds like he is rushing this and forcing the pace a tad too high, otherwise very enjoyable! :)
You are right, your no expert.
Гнусявый гитарный перегруз - режет слух.Певец убогий,а тем более телка на подсосе - вообще не всавляет.Органист тоже порой отсебячину несет.Буржуины пишут восхищенные отзывы,а ни хрена не соображают.
It's painful to listen to you talk, gulping for breath all the time. Maybe you should not eat 10 eggs, 5 rashers of bacon, a plate of kidneys, a bowl of haggis and a 5 pint flagon of beer before making a video?
Btw.. no one cares what the weather is outside..
Ufff
Great! For me the VERY best Purple albums are with Coverdale/Hughes especially the incredible Come taste the band!!!
Not my fave album I have to say. I love Tommy but feel he is pulled too far out of his style on this. I’d play Teaser any day instead.
I love stormbringer by contrast
Come Taste The Band - most underrated album by DP.
Nope, DP MK2 was the best lineup
