    I was at Call Jam II and a great many other festivals, in the 70's and early 80's. You could spend all day hearing a bunch of headline bands for about ten or fifteen bucks. It was am amazing time to be a rock fan! They still have them in some parts of the country. Pre-Covid, that is. But none as laid back, inexpensive, and with as much talent on stage as these. It almost seems like it never could have happened, but it sure as hell did. I only wish that they had the entire shows on film. Nobody, anywhere, should be holding back on any of this footage. UA-cam is proof positive that there is an audience for it. Pony up, if you've even got home movies of these great gatherings. Open up the achieves. and preserve the past. People will dig it!

    As a nearly 18 year old girl who’s never been to any concert the thought of going to a Deep Purple concert makes me so emotional cuz I don’t know how my life would go without listening to them. Going to a concert, seeing your favorite artists playing your favorite jams live is a very precious thing to experience. It got even more precious when the chance of seeing them felt like it’s never gonna happen. I’m so happy that DP is coming back to Turkey. I got my tickets for their upcoming concert in istanbul.

      Unfortunately, we will never be able to see the real Deep Purple live any more. It's been like that since 1993 when Ritchie Blackmore left the band and became fact when Jon Lord left the band and eventually passed away. Jon Lord and Ritchie Blackmore were the original founding members. These days it's just a cover band of its' former self. Jon Lord once said in an interview, that this band just don't know when to stop...

    Attacking an ABC-TV camera (broadcasting live) wasn't quite satisfying for Richie Blackmore - so for an encore he set his amps on fire - which had been conveniently doused with gasoline - causing a pretty dangerous explosion on stage - as the band played on. Ahhh yes ... the 70's.

    • @TheVidkid67
      @TheVidkid67 3 роки тому +7

      The reason Blackmore attacked the cameraman was because he was pissed off at ABC for calling the sheriff because he refused to go on until dusk as it was in the contract. He also told them time and again to keep their distance because he likes his own space on stage. They didn't listen though.

    I've got an interesting bit of trivia to add to the story. It's a little tedious, but bear with me. It's worth it.
    The 1974 California Jam (250k+ people) and the 1978 California Jam II (350k+ people) were held at the Ontario Motor Speedway. This could have been the beginning of a beautiful music legacy. Sadly, somewhere around 1980, the Speedway was sold off to land developers. The property exchanged hands a few times, but it largely sat vacant for a very long time - a sad state for a place with such an interesting history.
    Early in the 2000s, they finally started large scale building projects, along with some multi-use and residential construction. The largest and most important building of the planned development was the arena.
    As of last year, it was the Citizen's Business Bank Arena. It is now owned by Toyota. The arena is home to the AHL team Ontario Reign, an LA Kings affiliate, as well as an indoor soccer team. The arena hosts various conferences, as well.
    However, one of the most important aspects of the arena are... drumroll.... the concerts! Yep, the arena is currently situated in what was the infield of the original Ontario Motor Speedway. As luck and history would have it, the ghost of the Speedway is still making space for great music to this very day. 🤘😁

      Actually it wasn’t Coverdale that made Gillan and Glover leave. RB had the hottest band in the world and he shit in it because he got a man crush on Dio and Paul Rogers.

      Maybe not Coverdale so much but Hughes for sure.

      Coverdale performance at this show is extraordinary. "Mistreated" is brilliant.
