This song was written in 10 minutes in the back of a tour bus after a reporter touring with the band asked them how they write their songs. Upon arriving at the venue the song was perfected during sound check and performed live that night. This is why we say our generations music will never be matched. This is real musical talent. From a time when you actually had to be good at your craft to be successful.
The first solo is a true solo; John Lord made his organ sound like a guitar... it was his intention to sound like a guitarist; you can hear that best in „Smoke on the water“...
My friend, the hallmark of all these 70's groups was the fact that each individual musician was great in their own right. As you listen, focus on each individual musician and what they are playing . Of course, how they sound together was unbelievable!
"Made In Japan" baby!!!! I played the grooves of this album. Yep. I'm OAF but still kickin' ass and taking numbers.......just like this song. Reliving my teen years. Thanks!!
@@aafjeyakubu5124 Completely agree; they definitely weren't underrated in the 70's. You couldn't go more than 30 minutes or so without hearing anthems like Highway Star, Free Bird, Stairway to Heaven or Do You Feel Like We Do on the rock radio stations back then.
Yeah so, the guitarist Ritchie Blackmore was a beast and a HUGE influence on generations of lead guitarists there after. As I mentioned to Jojo, he was recognized as a noted grandfather of mixing blues scales with classical scales (as he was adept at both)
This album, Made In Japan, turned me into a musician starting age 14. For weeks on end after acquiring a copy (older brother) I did little else but listen to it with headphones, trying to understand what each instrument was doing, imagining my hands feet and fingers doing what they were doing. It became an obsession that lead to owning my first instrument a year later.
Lol we always called this a "Ticket song" Because if you've got this on while driving you feel like a highway star ⭐ my BF and all his friends had muscle cars so they spent most of their time working on cars, talking about them ect ect.. Drinking beer was next lol so I was right there with them! I still adore muscle cars and DP!! 🔥🌟😎
once when on the tour bus, a magazine reporter asked them how they make music? The band then wrote this song and played it live for the first time the next day as part of the tour. An on the spot creation turned into one of the biggest hits they had. Inspiration at its finest.
Grew up on Deep Purple, my dad had the original vinyl and a player when I was younger, like 25 years ago. Used to JAM them and others after school. Much respect my man
Ritchie Blackmore - say whatever else you want to say about him, is flat out a guitar virtuoso and underrated. Ive heard there are unflattering tings out theree about his personality, but the man had the goods on he Axe and was shredding it big time years before most.
Richie Blackmore is a master at the guitar. You should check out his next band when he left DP. The band is Rainbow, such a great band. Everyone starts off and reacts to "Stargazer" because it is so epic with Ronnie James Dio on vocals and Cozy Powell on drums.
I saw Deep Purple at least 6 times in the early 1970s - incredible live band and very loud. John Lord - Keyboards. Ian Paice - Drums. Roger Glover - Bass. Ritchie Blackmore - Lead Guitar.
For some reason, the camera was looking at the wrong side of the stage during the guitar solo. The man in the back was Roger Glover, the bassist, not the lead guitarist. He wasn't the one playing the solo. The man with the shirt you were commenting on, Ritchie Blackmore, is the guitarist.
This is a great song, when I first heard this in 1972 when I was a teenager and played Keyboards. I loved their sound and I had a Hammond C3 and a Synthesizer and a Farfisa Organ and a Rhodes 88 with a Leslie Amp
Two solos at the same time is called a duet, however, the part you mentioned wasn't a duet, it was just the keyboard solo with the rest of the band holding the backing music. Sometimes the drummer will throw in a fill but it's not necessarily a solo.
MADE IN JAPAN..., el mejor disco grabado en vivo de la historia, pura energía, improvisación y virtuosismo, grabado por la banda de hard rock también más grade de la historia (Totalmente ignorada y subestimada en USA). Higway Satar es la obra magna del rock and roll. Saludos
When people could sing and play instruments and write their own tunes and people from different countries and different races and different backgrounds could just enjoy the music together,
My 2 favorite classic rock bands Zeppelin and Deep Purple also! ..awesome musicians i wouldn't know where to start when complimenting all the individual musicians from either band all i can say is that DP is probably the most talented from Richie Blackmore and Ian Paice probably one of the best rock drummers on earth to Jon Lord i never saw such a talent on keyboards ..maybe Keith Emerson ..DP was just 5 guys that were super talented!
The original metal band was actually Steppenwolf. Rolling Stone magazine originated the term "heavy metal" to describe Steppenwolf's live performance of "Born to be wild" while including an excerpt of the line..... "Rolling down the highway, heavy metal thunder!!!"
Blue Cheer is often called the originator of heavy metal ( I say with a HEAVY heart, as I am life-long Sabbath fan ), but born to be wild is the big metal song because it was so popular, especially after easy rider came out. But...how many bands credit blue cheer or Steppenwolf as their biggest influences? zero. So purple, sabbath, and zeppelin are the trifecta of metal.
Ignore the video clip which is just spliced live takes from different shows and the original video for the charts. The actual audio is from Purples live album "Made in Japan" which was a monster for Purple and one of the best rock live albums ever made. The solos from John Lord and Ritchie Blackmore are stunning rock masterpieces with lots of classical feel with those super fast descending triplets. Ritchie's solo on this live album is way heavier than the studio version - its really incomparable heavy rock. It is no wonder modern rock musos describe Purple, Led Zep and Black Sabbath as the founders of hard rock and metal. Their influences are everywhere. And they are all masters of their instruments. Legends.
This is the 3rd Deep Purple reaction video of appearances that I have watched. I didn't know what to expect but have enjoyed a similar excitement to the one that I had when I first discovered them in 76... Now some 46 years later it is refreshing to see the same appreciation of master musicianship that originally knocked me sidewayss
These guys were so incredibly talented that before this performance , a reporter asked them how they write their songs . They said they wrote this song in like 2 minutes in front of the reporter and went out and performed it as a jam session that night .
The soundtrack of my childhood! First track off my first rock ablum, Machine Head. The sound of this video is from the classic "Made in Japan" album - one of the greatest live albums ever - but the footage is from a concert in Copenhagen. I heard that Lars Ulrich was there!
You can't really decide , both Le4d Zep and Deep Purple are form another planet. Hard to say IF and WHO could be the best, bottom line is : every time you hear one of them bands you are touched and moved. And that's what is all about
FYI My Brother, That keyboard 🎹 player that you “so rightly” keep giving props to(Jon Lord was his name), was a classically trained musician! Sadly he’s no longer with us😔He passed away a few years ago. In his off time from Purple he wrote symphonies for The London Symphony Orchestra😳😲🤭 That’s the caliber of a musician he was! A bonafied genius 🙌 May he rest in absolute peace🙏✌️🫶
So Van .... This is a trick. The video is them performing it in Copenhagen, Denmark BUT the audio was recorded in Osaka, Japan (from the "made in Japan" album. *Whoever did this was pretty slick. They "freestyled" a lot within their performances. Every night wasn't exactly the same. This audio version was definitive. The whole band was particularly 🔥 at this show.
Deep Purple are 5 virtuosos. If you like Ian Paice on drums check out the studio version of Burn. As for Blackmore check out the song Stargazer from his other band Rainbow which has Dio on vocals.
True enough, just to note though that this video has been added to the audio track. The audio is from the 'Made In Japan' (live) album which unfortunately there is no visual recording of.
This song is from the live album Made In Japan and it was pieced together from another live performance video because the Made In Japan version never had a video release which is a shame.
Dude, you've gotta check out the Mule live. The drummer, Ian Paice dose an incredible solo. His dad was into jazz, and you can see in his technique. Peace
Ritchie Blackmore's shirt is similar to the shirts Robert Plant used to wear. Plant used to always wear women's blouses. Blackmore is so good he can wear whatever he wants
Man im telling you , the song 'Lazy' will blow your freakin mind!! its on their Machine Head album like this one. Its so good!!
And there’s great live vid of them too!
Yes Yes Yes
My favourite is the live Made in Japan version of Lazy, such brilliant musicianship....
We wore out Machine Head record back in the day!😵💫

The music of all my life. Since I was teen. ¡What delicious hear my music cross you,
"The transition from that guitar solo...." ... The word you are looking for is tight. The tightest band in all of rock and roll. Period.
I loved them live... yes I am that old
The fantastic Ian Gillain is now 76 years old and still performing at the top of his game.Sadly we lost the amazing Jon Lord,keyboards a ledgend!!
For me Deep Purple is far and away the best band of that era. Everyone is extremely talented and the songs kill!
"Made In Japan" baby!!!! I played the grooves of this album. Yep. I'm OAF but still kickin' ass and taking numbers.......just like this song. Reliving my teen years. Thanks!!
4:27 .....The best "YEAH!!!" ever, in rock music history. Been thinking that for a few decades now. No one touches, Ian Gillan in his prime.
David Byron could match or exceed anybody in rock.
@LFR I really appreciate your ability to notice when the musician's are just going off!
Love your reaction so much. This was my favorite band when I was 15 years old . 62 now. Love Ian Gillan
Awesome and underrated band. Highly influential for hard rock and the origins of heavy metal
Underrated 🤔😂
@@chrismayer2468 yes! Everybody shows more love for Sabbath and Zeppelin
@@jessidevarela yes unfortunately
I knew Deep Purple long before I recognized anything by Zeppelin or Sabbath. Maybe underrated today, but most certainly not in the 1970s.
@@aafjeyakubu5124 Completely agree; they definitely weren't underrated in the 70's. You couldn't go more than 30 minutes or so without hearing anthems like Highway Star, Free Bird, Stairway to Heaven or Do You Feel Like We Do on the rock radio stations back then.
Im loving the reactions for deep purple, my favorite band

Ian Gillan - vocals
Roger Glover -bass
Jon Lord- keyboard
Ian Paice - drums
Ritchie Blackmore- guitar
Incredible talent and pioneering musicians = 7

Unholy trinity zeppelin purple sabbath!!! Oh yeaaaaaaaaah
Drummer - Ian Paice - One of the greats, left handed, dude can seriously play.
Ian Gillan 'S voice is insane and the drummer (Ian Paice) on fire! Blackmore a true master on guitar. Jon Lord à genius
I really enjoy the studio version and for a live version. Chickenfoot does a pretty damn good job.
Don't forget Roger Glover on bass too
Lol we always called this a "Ticket song" Because if you've got this on while driving you feel like a highway star ⭐ my BF and all his friends had muscle cars so they spent most of their time working on cars, talking about them ect ect..

One of the best rock band in the world
Five monsters, even more on stage.
once when on the tour bus, a magazine reporter asked them how they make music? The band then wrote this song and played it live for the first time the next day as part of the tour. An on the spot creation turned into one of the biggest hits they had.
Inspiration at its finest.
Actually, I read it was played that night.
Grew up on Deep Purple, my dad had the original vinyl and a player when I was younger, like 25 years ago. Used to JAM them and others after school. Much respect my man

Guy is singing that well without a single monitor to hear himself, amazing!
Stage side monitors for the entire band was common back then. At that show? Probably.
@@siskokidd Those were almost worse, by the time the sound got center stage it was mud, hence front stage monitors.. then in ear.
@@siskokidd Ian Gillan himself told that he didn't like monitors and has never used them.
I still can't believe they pull this solo together. Paice is a driver for real. Love a drummer like that.
DP were insane back in the 70s they were one of the founders of what we know today as Heavy metal \m/
I knew you would get here! Thanks....please never forget the time period
They were JAMMIN indeed!
Roger Glovers bass in this is so great.
70's Freedom Rock- decade of inclusive music 🎶
Richie Blackmore is a master at the guitar. You should check out his next band when he left DP. The band is Rainbow, such a great band. Everyone starts off and reacts to "Stargazer" because it is so epic with Ronnie James Dio on vocals and Cozy Powell on drums.
I wish van woukd listen to some Rainbow with Dio on vocals. Dio is a phenomenal vocalist defo my favourite
Awesome 😎 🤘 💯 🔥

nothing like riding in a muscle car back then and having this on 8 track! Good memories
Brilliant Band ! Lead guitar 🎸 Ritchie Blackmore ! Absolutely fantastic musicians !! Great to see your enthusiasm! 👍👍👍

Just saw Deep Purple in 2019 with my son. They opened with Highway Star!
Ian Paice always had my attention growing up.
He is criminally underrated. Him and Bill Ward
Sooo true. He fused rock with incredible jazz chops
When people could sing and play instruments and write their own tunes and people from different countries and different races and different backgrounds could just enjoy the music together,
"Highway Sta"r was written in 20 minutes on way to concert. Rehearsed it once during sound check before concert and decided to play it that night.
My 2 favorite classic rock bands Zeppelin and Deep Purple also! ..awesome musicians i wouldn't know where to start when complimenting all the individual musicians from either band all i can say is that DP is probably the most talented from Richie Blackmore and Ian Paice probably one of the best rock drummers on earth to Jon Lord i never saw such a talent on keyboards ..maybe Keith Emerson ..DP was just 5 guys that were super talented!
Listen deeper..singing about his ride
That guitarist is the great Richie Blackmore of Deep Purple and Rainbow fame!
The originators of Metal. Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, and Led Zeppelin.
The original metal band was actually Steppenwolf. Rolling Stone magazine originated the term "heavy metal" to describe Steppenwolf's live performance of "Born to be wild" while including an excerpt of the line.....

THE UNHOLY TRINITY MASTERS OF HEAVY METAL
if they're all kicking ass and al are gifted,
it it is a superband, want some examples?

Every speeding i every had, i was listening to this...
Yeh..Jam, groove ...can go anywhere ...Like Jazz, Blues....within a format ...
Ian Gillan, vocals. Richie Blackmore, guitar. Roger Glover, bass. Jon Lord, keyboards. Ian Paice, drums.
they can play. i like the dedication
You should listen to the song Burn, live California Jam, with Deep Purple! World class
Fireball is a bloody great track
The soundtrack of my childhood! First track off my first rock ablum, Machine Head.
The sound of this video is from the classic "Made in Japan" album - one of the greatest live albums ever - but the footage is from a concert in Copenhagen. I heard that Lars Ulrich was there!
Deep Purple keyboard solos are the best - and even better, Ritchie Blackmore is on deck!
You can't really decide , both Le4d Zep and Deep Purple are form another planet. Hard to say IF and WHO could be the best, bottom line is : every time you hear one of them bands you are touched and moved. And that's what is all about

deep purple space truckin pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease

The Chickenfoot 🐔 live version of Highway Star is absolute 🔥🔥🔥

Crazy shirt...but crazy good gman
What an iconic and legendary masterpiece! 🤘🤘
I can't stop seeing Ritchie B doing duckface and sliding back behind Ian G while looking right at the camera at 3:35 😂😂😂
R.I.P. The Immortal Jon Lord!
Deep Purple are 5 virtuosos. If you like Ian Paice on drums check out the studio version of Burn. As for Blackmore check out the song Stargazer from his other band Rainbow which has Dio on vocals.
Rabbit hole time. All 7 tracks on this and In Rock command reaction videos. And I watch for them, and watch them.
The camera guy was messed up That whole 1st solo was Jon Lord on Keys the 2nd solo was Ritchie on Guitar he should have kept focus on Jon.
True enough, just to note though that this video has been added to the audio track. The audio is from the 'Made In Japan' (live) album which unfortunately there is no visual recording of.
Mr. Blackmore hated being filmed. He's actually hit people with his guitar to prevent it.
Video is from Denmark and audio from live album Made in Japan .
Lazy is a fantastic song !11
💜
I got a few speeding tickets because of this song
This song is from the live album Made In Japan and it was pieced together from another live performance video because the Made In Japan version never had a video release which is a shame.
The album is maid in japan
If you really want to see Ian Paice shred a drum kit, watch Deep Purple The Mule. 'nuff said.
Live from Copenhagen 1972
Es correcto
It’s called badass
Ian gillan =vocals.
Ritchie Blackmore = guitar.
Ian price drums
Roger glover =bass
Jon lord = organ
You should hear Ian sing “I Only Want to Know” from the musical Jesus Christ Super Star. Sublime.
It’s actually titled I Only Want to Say…my bad. Listen to it. You won’t regret it.
I think you were asking about the bridge. The transition from the solo back to the next chorus.
If you get a chance, you really need to listen to the studio version of this, it'll blow your speakers to the weeds.
If you looking for tight bands and tempo changes, i suggest Rush's Spirit of the Radio...damn good song!
More Deep Purple Please
Dude, you've gotta check out the Mule live. The drummer, Ian Paice dose an incredible solo. His dad was into jazz, and you can see in his technique. Peace
More Purple. Check out Lazy, burn, space trucking, the whole Machine head album is awesome
One of the most bad ass songs of the 70's. Look... if you're a bad ass guitar player you can wear what ever the hell you want :P
If you want about 8 minutes of almost nothing but the drummer, watch The Mule from the live in Denmark video.
Ritchie Blackmore's shirt is similar to the shirts Robert Plant used to wear. Plant used to always wear women's blouses. Blackmore is so good he can wear whatever he wants
Great song about a car.
In big band jazz, when a whole section takes a solo, it's called a "soli."
Great reaction. This song is iconic.
The video performance is from scandinavian nights; and the audio, is from made in Japan.
Ritchie Blackmore invented shredding 🔥
