Summer, 1972. About to enter high school, I'd just recently purchased and assembled my first stereo (consisting of a phonograph, amp, and speakers; cassette deck still in the future) with cash I'd made in my neighbourhood landscaping "gofer" job after school, along with a three-colour-floodlight sound-sensitive "light organ" (that's what this new tech was called back then) from Radio Shack, my first ever soldering project. I came home from the downtown record store on a Saturday afternoon with a Deep Purple album that'd caught my eye. I turned the lights off in my windowless basement bedroom, cranked the stereo and let the light organ start flashing as the music began. I'll never forget the sensation of listening to this song for the first time. Way cool! 🤗
You're watching the greatest rock band in the world at that time live. No edit, no auto tune click track or vocal pitch correction. Pure live genius of Deep Purple.
Love the way you get fully into something. This song still gives me goosebumps and watching your reaction especially to Gillan's vocals fills me both with great feelings for the past and great hope for the future when a see a young guy like you appreciatig the talent of these great artist from the past. Thanks Silas, You are a top guy
Great reaction. Many people prefer studio versions rather than live performances, but Deep Purple are incredible musicians who live were able to jam, to extend their performances beyond that recorded in the studio. Many of their fans will see the "Made in Japan" album as one of the greatest live albums ever, and you must try it out.
For me with Deep Purple I prefer the studio version of the guitar solo in Highway Star, simply because he overlayed the solo (basically two guitars playing the solo) Gave it a fuller sound than what he can possibly achieve live with only one set of hands lol.
Were I in the audience I'd be jumping and dancin' and air guitar playing and rocking out. PERIOD. Nobody's stoppin' me. I think this was filmed in France - I could be wrong. The French - pshaw! Anyhow the late sixties to the early seventies - the English bands just couldn'tbe touched. They were all simply amazing. Anyhow, Silas here: Silas, you JUST GOT BLOWN AWAY! Congratulations.
There are rare times when the live version is better than the studio version.....This is one of those times. I've seen this a thousand times and it never get old.
It's not just the tone and power of the falsetto scream, it's the control. Hitting the same note and descending from that note, with control, is ridiculously impressive! Pavarotti described Gillan as the best singer he'd ever heard! Coming from Pavarotti, that's some compliment! Having sung the lead in the original recording of 'Jesus Christ Superstar' he could have had a career as a leading man in London's West End and on Broadway. Andrew Lloyd Webber asked him to be his leading man but Ian wanted to stay with Deep Purple and rock music. He really was World Class and is many people's choice for the title of greatest rock singer of all-time! :)
Back then studios didnt have all the tricks they have today. What you heard was what was recorded. They could lay tracks,do over dubs,take do overs, and use some bare bones mic effects...but no auto tune and such. Back then, you had to actually have ability.
I enjoy your enthusiasm, this is the stuff I was listening to when i was your age. I’ve still got 4 vinyl albums form Deep. Purple on my shelf. And you better believe I was rocking out.
5:20 in terms of the notes Ian is hitting, it was a bit ago where you commented on and that's a pretty high note too. And so for that that was partly falsetto but it's great because it sets up what's to come which is just an amazing belt with amazing vibrato and control. But anyway if you want to look it up how the pitch notation works, when you commented on it he was starting on a C5 and descending from there, and then on the next iteration he goes up into that belt and he's starting on an E5 and descending. And that's about the time you really kind of perked up even more and then I'm not sure if you noticed, but then the next two times he does it he jumps up a whole 4th even higher than that and hits this pretty amazing A5 with vibrato and descending from there. Wow. (C5 is the octave above middle C).
DEEP PURPLE is my favorite band!!! Thanks for the reaction. You must listen "I only want to say (Gethsemane)" of Jesus Christ Super Star. Ian Gillan (Deep Purple's vocalist) sang the role of Jesus. His talent can be appreciated in that piece of music as well.
Great reaction Silas, I love watching you react in such a genuinely passionate way to a classic live performance, every member of the band were at the very top of their game for this for sure.
This was back when a band was made by their live shows, very rarely did you even get a studio album unless you were really good live mostly because of the cost. This also caused most studio versions of song to be more streamlined and cut down and cleaned up for radio play, meaning that the live show was almost always heavier, longer and with more improvised parts. Also on the part where he jumped at the cameraman notice he didn't miss a single note. This was recorded for television so the audience was told to stay quiet.
Deep Purple musically were on a different level and Ian's voice is one of the best ever. Don't forget to check out Ritchie Blackmore's next band called Rainbow. Ronnie James Dio on vocal is another excellent example of the talent during this time.
DP was my first concert 💜 it blew my 17 yr old mind!! From then on, I would compare any other band I would see to them. They set the bar so high that only a few came close. ✨️✌️☘️
Ian Gillan kills it. You gotta hear his vocals in the song "Gethsemane" from JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR original soundtrack. (Ted Neely's version in the movie version is amazing, too...)
The best way to experience the power of Deep Purple is with live versions. They wanted to change the world with their live performances. They are absolutely stellar live. As I am sure you've heard from others, Made in Japan MUST be one you do all of the songs from. Might be the best live album ever recorded. You will not be disappointed.
Made In Japan is the Measure of what a Live Album should be. It is absolutely the Greatest Live Album ever Recorded. Made In Japan started the Live Album Boom. There were so many great Live Albums that came out after. But not one kicked your aas like Made In Japan.
A Large part of the audience didnt want to be there, it wasnt advertised as such so much of the audience were Granada Television employees and some of their family.
Thanks Silas! Of course I grew up on this stuff. It is a pleasure to see you enjoy it. I saw DP a few times. Last time was with Judas Priest. That is another band you will want to check out. Unleashed in the east is their greatest album ever. (Judas)
Conocí este tema con 15 años de su disco Made in Japan y me impactó tanto como te ha impactado a ti más de 50 años después. Saludos desde Madrid, España.
I just get a kick out of watching kids reactions to my music . I started my Grandson on my music when he was two and twenty two years later he is still hooked.🤘🤘🤘
Couple of my favorite DP songs are Woman From Tokyo and Space Truckin'...(named my company Space Truckin')... Worth a listen also is a Rock Opera where the lead singer, Ian Gillan, plays the lead role...a favorite original soundtrack of mine...Jesus Christ Superstar...
They came up with a different kind of rock music. That's the reason why the audience are so quiet, not knowing what kind of music is this. Deep Purple where way ahead of their time !
100% agree Stargazer is a must. Check out songs from the 1977 Rainbow Munich concert - "Catch the Rainbow" and "Mistreated" stand out the most from this concert even thought all the other songs are excellent.
and the sequel/follow up A Light In The Black. These two songs took up the whole B side of their Rising album, one of the best albums ever recorded. There is not a bad or even mediocre song on the entire album.
Deep Purple are a lot like The Who. As good as they were in the studio doing albums..., they were ALWAYS better ‘live’ in concert. Especially during the 1960s/70s. If you wanna see more evidence, you really owe it to yourself to watch Deep Purple performing ‘Space Trucking’ live at the 1974 California Jam Festival (Ontario Motor Speedway, Ontario Ca.) in front of 200,000+ people. And BE SURE TO WATCH THE FULL 20+ MINUTES VERSION. Ritchie (guitar) was in a “mood” that day.., and the results were explosive. Truly a performance for the ages.
Space Truckin' by Mark 3? No, Coverdale and Hughes couldn't give credit to Mark 2's songs. They have their own songs that they're great at, but leave Space Truckin to Gillan, especially since there's Made In Japan, Copenhagen 1972, New York 1973 or Providence 1985 - even if there's any way to come to reconcile with a mumbling Coverdale, that Hughes squeal is just awful, and smashing a guitar against a camera lens doesn't make it a better song.
@@ninoorjon I totally agree with you on Hughes; his ‘squealing’ is annoying. But Coverdale is/was a fantastic vocalist. But overall I’m a Ritchie Blackmore fan. I guess you’re more a fan of Ian Gillian and Roger Glover. Mk3 did some great stuff. But I mostly watch/listen to DP and Rainbow for Blackmore. So if Ritchie played the California Jam with Boy George on vocals I probably wouldn’t care. I’d still love it. Great rock performances are ‘visual’ as well as ‘aural’. Just one guys opinion but..., yeah.., Blackmore playing his ass off, breaking up 3 guitars, playing with his feet..., generally tearing up the stage in a rage..., and.. smashing his guitar into the camera..., for me..., makes the song WAY better. It’s absolute Blackmore/Rock n Roll gold. The Mk2 lineup ended in ‘73 and didn’t get back together until ‘84/‘85. I think it’s a shame that, being so hung up on Gillian and Glover, you deny yourself enjoyment of the legendary music that Blackmore created in those 11 years with Purple and Rainbow. I’ll go out on a limb and say that in those 11 years.., Blackmore’s studio and live output was far more entertaining than Gillian’s or Glover’s..., no matter who was singing or playing bass with him..., but maybe you’ll prove me wrong. I’ll always be a Blackmore fan first.., whether with Purple or Rainbow. That’s the hill I’ll die on. Being that you’re more into Ian Gillian I’d suggest Black Sabbath’s 1983 release ‘Born Again’. In my opinion Gillian’s finest collective vocal performance since ‘Child in Time’. He’s an absolute vocal Rock God on that album. Problem for you will be..., ‘It’s a Black Sabbath album’..., and that fact alone will probably get you in some blind rage about ‘how dare these people play with these people...’ and you won’t even hear his earth shattering vocals, due to all the anger. That’s a shame too. Stop denying yourself, try to enjoy. There’s been a lot of good music put out since ‘73.
@@michaelr4063 Well, how did you conclude from my comment that I don’t like Ritchie Blackmore and I deprived myself of the pleasure of listening to Rainbow? I've listed Space Truckin' only with Blackmore, even though they were actively doing this song with Morse. In my opinion, on the contrary, you deprived yourself of the pleasure of getting to know Gillan better, judging by the spelling of his last name and what you think, that after Child In Time Born Again (by the way, my favorite album, which I have on vinyl and I really look forward to the remaster due to 40th Anniversary) his best vocal performance. You've never heard Fighting Man or Scarabus right? You're jumping to too many conclusions without knowing me, so I tried it too. ☺ And I really don't like Coverdale in Deep Purple, in Whitesnake he sang a lot better.
@@ninoorjon You dismissed Blackmore’s (and Purple’s) amazing California Jam set as shit, not worth watching or listening to. And I should watch/listen to Mk2, the ‘Real Deep Purple’. Not Mk2..., not for you. Blackmore’s a gimmick smashing cameras and stuff. That’s how you came off and that’s how I came to that conclusion. I’ve never liked Hughes in Purple.., but Coverdale’..? Really? You do realize that he was around 20 at the time, largely inexperienced..., replacing a rock legend in one of the biggest bands ever and with only a few warm up gigs under his belt he finds himself standing on stage next to an angry Ritchie Blackmore in front of 200,000 fans.., I’d say he did fantastic. Saying he was ‘a mumbler’ that ‘got better’ is a bit like saying “Mick Jagger really sang like crap back in ‘62 but ‘Start Me Up’ is pretty good”. I’ll never understand Hughes and all his funky-ness in DP, Coverdale doesn’t hold a candle to Gillan’s legendary roar, so I wanna ‘not like’ Mk3. But then how in hell could anyone dismiss ‘Burn’ as not being ‘authentic’. Burn?!?! So I gotta at least give some respect to the band that recorded ‘Burn’. I gave up on comparing Mk1, 2, 3, 4 and on and on a long time ago. I just look at them as different bands, on their own merits instead of fighting em against each other like toy soldiers. And you’re right, I should get Ian Gillan’s name right. Been doing that all my life. The man’s a damn legend. Show some respect. I’ve got my original ‘Born Again’ vinyl.., plus about 3 versions on CD. Anxiously awaiting the long rumored remix-remaster. I never said Mk3 was better than Mk2. All I said was they were amazing at California Jam. You dismissed the entire California Jam performance as ‘shit’. I still stand behind what I said. Other than that, I was largely being sarcastic so don’t take it to heart. You think I’m silly for liking it. I think you’re silly for not liking it. Lol, a small difference of opinion. At least we’re not calling each other names.., lol. I’m done with my long boring speech- Best Wishes👍
You probably didn't know you could scream like that, and sound just like Gillian. Everytime I see a reaction to this song I watch it and you're the only one who got a kick outta Gillian doing that to the camera. That cracked me up too when he did that. Yeah, react to In Rock. You'll be glad you did. Peace
@@psbarrow you are correct sir. My keyboard corrects spelling and I have to correct it, but I don't know how I didn't catch that, cause I know that. Peace
Just so you know...EVERY song on the studio album this is from (In Rock) is awesome. Try "Flight of the Rat" and "Hard Lovin' Man" in particular if you want to rock your face off.
@@davidmooney2512 They didn't take this song, they took the riff and improvised on the theme, and the song, the vocals, the guitar solo and the jam are all original.
There are a few artists whose live versions have more power and emotional impact than the studio versions ever could. Aurora is a contemporary example. But Ian Gillian singing with Deep Purple draws so much energy from the audience and band in a live setting, it's electric. Great reaction.
Hello Bailey, I just had to watch your reaction, as I was the same age as you when this Album, Deep Purple In Rock came out, it blew us away too, (still can). Your reaction proves Great music is not just for one generation, it's foe anyone and everyone. The guys in the band were all virtuosos of their instruments and produced a CLASSIC this is HIGH ART, plus they were not much older than you at the Time... pleased you love it too...
Thank you - that's exactly how I felt many, many years ago, back then 👍 At that time I also took part in video recordings - it was hell ... waiting for hours, short rehearsal, waiting for hours again, small change, waiting for hours again, you didn't know when it would finally start. As an audience you get "sedated" at some point...
The current Netflix show 1899 by the same German husband and wife team that did the killer series Dark a couple years ago has eight episodes to season 1 and they are all out. At the end of each episode is a classic rock song usually and it always fits the episode and the ending scene of the episode really effectively and very powerfully. One of them is White Rabbit by Jefferson airplane, another one though is postpunk and it's The Killing Moon by Echo & the Bunnymen, another is a Cat Stevens song, and at any rate they're all great. A Child in Time is used perfectly, I think at the end of episode 3, and they faded in right when Ian starts going up for those High vibrato belts that are so dramatic. And you hear this come in at the ending of the final scene in that episode and it just gives you goosebumps. And just like you, I actually got goosebumps a couple time watching this performance.
Great choice and great job, compliment!!! Unfortunately there is no video of Made In Japan or videos with good sound quality from that time. On this TV, however, all 5 members are in top form with this anti-Vietnam anthem. Some of the singers of 70 like Robert Plant, Roger Daltrey, Barry Hay ... had the will and the talent to bring color into the tones (blues inspired?), above all they could then also implement it LIVE👍.
@@ninoorjon Oh yes, so great; I simply forgot it; I now also remember a previously available bootleg from Copenhagen and a video recording. Have a great New Year!!!
I generally enjoy studio versions of music more than live versions but when it comes to Deep Purple and even Rainbow, I've always enjoyed their live recording much more than their studio recordings.
Silas, this track is better live, but an even better version is on the Made in Japan album (only audio no video) the band had progressed. I think this was recorded for the BBC and the audience were told to remain seated and not react.
Another very entertaining reaction, Silas. Heh heh. 👍 You were likely born about thirty years later than you should have been! But see? See what no autotune and lack of advanced electronics and computer systems did for rock (and other) music? It was even more epic and more creative than a lot of what's out there now. It'd be easy to say that "they had to play, sing and perform all the harder because they didn't have the tech to tweak it" (as some might say), but that's presuming (wrongly) that they ever had that concern in their minds. They (mostly) didn't. They just created and performed their hearts, fingers, and lungs out! Was it occasionally chemically enhanced or inspired? Sure. Lol. But not always. And there are plenty of stories about how drugs and alcohol could also negatively impact a band and it's creativity, it's performances, and its cohesiveness. Hell, the Doors (and specifically Jim Morrison's) history alone proves that, even though they created great music. Of course, the manipulation and greed of the music industry at the time didn't help matters, even if it helped to launch many superstar bands and artists.
I’m almost positive that’s Richie Blackmore I was born in 69 is interesting my deep purple started with knocking on your back door going back to these previous albums makes me realize there’s a lot more to uncover. Thank you.
banda favorita, de mi padre, mio y de mis hijos.Es como mi colo colo, traspasa generaciones, saludos desde chile.un abrazo, y sigue llenandote y descubriendo la geandeza del rock.
If you like this, then you would probably like the 1976 BBC performance by Judas Priest of Dreamer Deceiver/Deceiver, a song which is clearly influenced by Child in Time, but also blends in elements of Black Sabbath and Pink Floyd to create the ultimate hard rock power ballad.
Aún no he visto tu reaction, pero ya estoy emocionada. Esta es una de las canciones que mas me gustan de Deep Purple. Resulta muy interesante este directo porque ves al publico, su vestimenta, su forma de estar. Aún no estaban preparados para lo que escucharon. Después de escuchar este tema, la precisión y la virtuosidad de cada componente, uno simplemente piensa...¡Como es posible! ¿como lo han hecho?
Era una forma instricta de mirar los recitales en esa época en ese escenario. x eso nadie se movía, sería imposible de no hacerlo, al frente de la banda más rápida, virtuosa y de élite en esa época .
I´d argue there´s actually 3 reasons for the audience being so quiet: 1) yes, they were instructed because of recording 2) this was new, people were used to elvis and the beatles, the new stuff that came along in the late 60ies needed to get used to 3) we actually really were more calm in the concerts back then because of more attentive listening, rather erupting AFTER the presentation (like you in your reaction)
If it wasn't for the trifecta of Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, and Led Zeppelin there would not have been Heavy Metal or Hair Metal in the late 70's 80's or 90's
Great reaction, Silas. Please, check the audio of “Strange kind of woman” from the live album “Made in Japan”. You will not regret it, I can assure it to you.
That was the respectful amount of gob smacked and also gave me fond flashbacks to me spazzing out with an air guitar in my bedroom back in the day, which at 52 I obviously don't do anymore (that's a lie).
This was filmed for a TV performance and the audience was specifically told to keep quiet and not to dance etc.
Nobody today can touch this.
And there's so much today that is a singer with 15 backup dancers and you rarely even see the back up band ! This is real , this is music !

They have their own songs that they're great at, but leave Space Truckin to Gillan, especially since there's Made In Japan, Copenhagen 1972, New York 1973 or Providence 1985 - even if there's any way to come to reconcile with a mumbling Coverdale, that Hughes squeal is just awful, and smashing a guitar against a camera lens doesn't make it a better song.
@@ninoorjon I totally agree with you on Hughes; his ‘squealing’ is annoying. But Coverdale is/was a fantastic vocalist. But overall I’m a Ritchie Blackmore fan. I guess you’re more a fan of Ian Gillian and Roger Glover. Mk3 did some great stuff. But I mostly watch/listen to DP and Rainbow for Blackmore. So if Ritchie played the California Jam with Boy George on vocals I probably wouldn’t care. I’d still love it. Great rock performances are ‘visual’ as well as ‘aural’. Just one guys opinion but..., yeah.., Blackmore playing his ass off, breaking up 3 guitars, playing with his feet..., generally tearing up the stage in a rage..., and.. smashing his guitar into the camera..., for me..., makes the song WAY better. It’s absolute Blackmore/Rock n Roll gold. The Mk2 lineup ended in ‘73 and didn’t get back together until ‘84/‘85. I think it’s a shame that, being so hung up on Gillian and Glover, you deny yourself enjoyment of the legendary music that Blackmore created in those 11 years with Purple and Rainbow. I’ll go out on a limb and say that in those 11 years.., Blackmore’s studio and live output was far more entertaining than Gillian’s or Glover’s..., no matter who was singing or playing bass with him..., but maybe you’ll prove me wrong. I’ll always be a Blackmore fan first.., whether with Purple or Rainbow. That’s the hill I’ll die on. Being that you’re more into Ian Gillian I’d suggest Black Sabbath’s 1983 release ‘Born Again’. In my opinion Gillian’s finest collective vocal performance since ‘Child in Time’. He’s an absolute vocal Rock God on that album. Problem for you will be..., ‘It’s a Black Sabbath album’..., and that fact alone will probably get you in some blind rage about ‘how dare these people play with these people...’ and you won’t even hear his earth shattering vocals, due to all the anger. That’s a shame too. Stop denying yourself, try to enjoy. There’s been a lot of good music put out since ‘73.
@@michaelr4063 Well, how did you conclude from my comment that I don’t like Ritchie Blackmore and I deprived myself of the pleasure of listening to Rainbow? I've listed Space Truckin' only with Blackmore, even though they were actively doing this song with Morse. In my opinion, on the contrary, you deprived yourself of the pleasure of getting to know Gillan better, judging by the spelling of his last name and what you think, that after Child In Time Born Again (by the way, my favorite album, which I have on vinyl and I really look forward to the remaster due to 40th Anniversary) his best vocal performance. You've never heard Fighting Man or Scarabus right? You're jumping to too many conclusions without knowing me, so I tried it too. ☺ And I really don't like Coverdale in Deep Purple, in Whitesnake he sang a lot better.
Live 1973 Hofstra university in New York filmed by ABC TV.
@@ninoorjon You dismissed Blackmore’s (and Purple’s) amazing California Jam set as shit, not worth watching or listening to. And I should watch/listen to Mk2, the ‘Real Deep Purple’. Not Mk2..., not for you. Blackmore’s a gimmick smashing cameras and stuff. That’s how you came off and that’s how I came to that conclusion. I’ve never liked Hughes in Purple.., but Coverdale’..? Really? You do realize that he was around 20 at the time, largely inexperienced..., replacing a rock legend in one of the biggest bands ever and with only a few warm up gigs under his belt he finds himself standing on stage next to an angry Ritchie Blackmore in front of 200,000 fans.., I’d say he did fantastic. Saying he was ‘a mumbler’ that ‘got better’ is a bit like saying “Mick Jagger really sang like crap back in ‘62 but ‘Start Me Up’ is pretty good”. I’ll never understand Hughes and all his funky-ness in DP, Coverdale doesn’t hold a candle to Gillan’s legendary roar, so I wanna ‘not like’ Mk3. But then how in hell could anyone dismiss ‘Burn’ as not being ‘authentic’. Burn?!?! So I gotta at least give some respect to the band that recorded ‘Burn’. I gave up on comparing Mk1, 2, 3, 4 and on and on a long time ago. I just look at them as different bands, on their own merits instead of fighting em against each other like toy soldiers. And you’re right, I should get Ian Gillan’s name right. Been doing that all my life. The man’s a damn legend. Show some respect. I’ve got my original ‘Born Again’ vinyl.., plus about 3 versions on CD. Anxiously awaiting the long rumored remix-remaster. I never said Mk3 was better than Mk2. All I said was they were amazing at California Jam. You dismissed the entire California Jam performance as ‘shit’. I still stand behind what I said. Other than that, I was largely being sarcastic so don’t take it to heart. You think I’m silly for liking it. I think you’re silly for not liking it. Lol, a small difference of opinion. At least we’re not calling each other names.., lol. I’m done with my long boring speech- Best Wishes👍
You probably didn't know you could scream like that, and sound just like Gillian. Everytime I see a reaction to this song I watch it and you're the only one who got a kick outta Gillian doing that to the camera. That cracked me up too when he did that. Yeah, react to In Rock. You'll be glad you did. Peace
His surname is Gillan, not Gillian.
@@psbarrow you are correct sir. My keyboard corrects spelling and I have to correct it, but I don't know how I didn't catch that, cause I know that. Peace
@@notgivennotgiven7776 No worries, Ian slips me a fiver for every correction.
@@psbarrow he is the man
Another Fantastic Reaction Silas!😁😅☕🎋💻
Just so you know...EVERY song on the studio album this is from (In Rock) is awesome. Try "Flight of the Rat" and "Hard Lovin' Man" in particular if you want to rock your face off.
You need to check out on u tube Deep Purple vs It's a Beautiful Day, you will see where they got this song from
@@davidmooney2512 They didn't take this song, they took the riff and improvised on the theme, and the song, the vocals, the guitar solo and the jam are all original.
He must be a zeppelin fan..they stole a lot.
speed king is a whammer bammer
.
How Ian Gillian managed to not do permanent damage to his vocals chords is a mystery.
Actually, he did. He got nodes on his chords and had to get surgery in the 80s - his voice was never the same after.
His name is Gillan, not Gillian.
@@psbarrow probably predictive text unchecked...
You'll notice the ending was a bit controversial for the studio version. But it really completes the message of this anti war song.
There are a few artists whose live versions have more power and emotional impact than the studio versions ever could. Aurora is a contemporary example. But Ian Gillian singing with Deep Purple draws so much energy from the audience and band in a live setting, it's electric. Great reaction.
Gillan.
@@psbarrow appreciate the correction.
@@liamstrain No worries, Ian slips me a fiver for every correction of his surname.
Hello Bailey, I just had to watch your reaction, as I was the same age as you when this Album, Deep Purple In Rock came out, it blew us away too, (still can). Your reaction proves Great music is not just for one generation, it's foe anyone and everyone. The guys in the band were all virtuosos of their instruments and produced a CLASSIC this is HIGH ART, plus they were not much older than you at the Time... pleased you love it too...
Awesome live recording from way back when. Remember seeing them live, had good seats, got ticket stub ($6.50)
The audience was probably scared shitless. That silence and stillness was actually shock and awe.
Great reaction, bro👏
Deep Purple is the best live rock band in the history of rock, that's for sure!
Hi Silas, another Great song is Highway Star, my favorite 😎
Thank you - that's exactly how I felt many, many years ago, back then 👍 At that time I also took part in video recordings - it was hell ... waiting for hours, short rehearsal, waiting for hours again, small change, waiting for hours again, you didn't know when it would finally start. As an audience you get "sedated" at some point...
The current Netflix show 1899 by the same German husband and wife team that did the killer series Dark a couple years ago has eight episodes to season 1 and they are all out. At the end of each episode is a classic rock song usually and it always fits the episode and the ending scene of the episode really effectively and very powerfully. One of them is White Rabbit by Jefferson airplane, another one though is postpunk and it's The Killing Moon by Echo & the Bunnymen, another is a Cat Stevens song, and at any rate they're all great. A Child in Time is used perfectly, I think at the end of episode 3, and they faded in right when Ian starts going up for those High vibrato belts that are so dramatic. And you hear this come in at the ending of the final scene in that episode and it just gives you goosebumps. And just like you, I actually got goosebumps a couple time watching this performance.
Great choice and great job, compliment!!! Unfortunately there is no video of Made In Japan or videos with good sound quality from that time. On this TV, however, all 5 members are in top form with this anti-Vietnam anthem.
Some of the singers of 70 like Robert Plant, Roger Daltrey, Barry Hay ... had the will and the talent to bring color into the tones (blues inspired?), above all they could then also implement it LIVE👍.
Well, why, there is a beautiful version with the video sequence Live Copenhagen 72 - the predecessor of Made In Japan.
@@ninoorjon Oh yes, so great; I simply forgot it; I now also remember a previously available bootleg from Copenhagen and a video recording. Have a great New Year!!!
@@ursgeiser6570 I wish you happy holidays too.
1970 i was 3 years old - start listen to Rock / Metal 1980 - today i ' m 55 years and listen Heavy Metal more than 40 years
I generally enjoy studio versions of music more than live versions but when it comes to Deep Purple and even Rainbow, I've always enjoyed their live recording much more than their studio recordings.
I really love your reaktions . You have contact with heart and soul 🥰⭐️
Silas, this track is better live, but an even better version is on the Made in Japan album (only audio no video) the band had progressed. I think this was recorded for the BBC and the audience were told to remain seated and not react.
Funny...I just made 2 posts that basically said the same thing both of yours together did.
This is one of those that you had to react to the live version
More gods 🙏pure talent , no computers, pure genius, have been in my life for over 50 yrs ❤
Live kills the studio & the studio is excellent..great tune & reaction
So much fun! Youareamanbeyondyouryears.
Keep it alive
Deep purple are very, very, good
This is music not the rubbish produced now this is the music your grandparents loved and rocked too
Welcome to the 70's...my young friend...when life was honest and free!...
For us, however the Vietnam War was still going on. THANKFULLY the UK never got involved .
Another very entertaining reaction, Silas. Heh heh. 👍
You were likely born about thirty years later than you should have been!
But see? See what no autotune and lack of advanced electronics and computer systems did for rock (and other) music? It was even more epic and more creative than a lot of what's out there now. It'd be easy to say that "they had to play, sing and perform all the harder because they didn't have the tech to tweak it" (as some might say), but that's presuming (wrongly) that they ever had that concern in their minds. They (mostly) didn't. They just created and performed their hearts, fingers, and lungs out!
Was it occasionally chemically enhanced or inspired? Sure. Lol. But not always. And there are plenty of stories about how drugs and alcohol could also negatively impact a band and it's creativity, it's performances, and its cohesiveness. Hell, the Doors (and specifically Jim Morrison's) history alone proves that, even though they created great music.
Of course, the manipulation and greed of the music industry at the time didn't help matters, even if it helped to launch many superstar bands and artists.
Few are the live performances that clearly put the studio performance to shame. But this is one.
In terms of sheer power and passion, yeah, but I still am more blown away by the Jon's keyboards, and especially Ritchie's solo on the studio.
I’m almost positive that’s Richie Blackmore I was born in 69 is interesting my deep purple started with knocking on your back door going back to these previous albums makes me realize there’s a lot more to uncover. Thank you.
Deep Purple Earlier catalogue even contains Concertos, Concerto For Group and Orchestra...
banda favorita, de mi padre, mio y de mis hijos.Es como mi colo colo, traspasa generaciones, saludos desde chile.un abrazo, y sigue llenandote y descubriendo la geandeza del rock.
Live was always better than studio in those days.
If you like this, then you would probably like the 1976 BBC performance by Judas Priest of Dreamer Deceiver/Deceiver, a song which is clearly influenced by Child in Time, but also blends in elements of Black Sabbath and Pink Floyd to create the ultimate hard rock power ballad.
Aún no he visto tu reaction, pero ya estoy emocionada. Esta es una de las canciones que mas me gustan de Deep Purple. Resulta muy interesante este directo porque ves al publico, su vestimenta, su forma de estar. Aún no estaban preparados para lo que escucharon. Después de escuchar este tema, la precisión y la virtuosidad de cada componente, uno simplemente piensa...¡Como es posible! ¿como lo han hecho?
That was a great comment.
Era una forma instricta de mirar los recitales en esa época en ese escenario. x eso nadie se movía, sería imposible de no hacerlo, al frente de la banda más rápida, virtuosa y de élite en esa época .
now you know how crazy rock music in that era 😁
I´d argue there´s actually 3 reasons for the audience being so quiet: 1) yes, they were instructed because of recording 2) this was new, people were used to elvis and the beatles, the new stuff that came along in the late 60ies needed to get used to 3) we actually really were more calm in the concerts back then because of more attentive listening, rather erupting AFTER the presentation (like you in your reaction)
All true but be fair when we (or at least I) Listen to the album we reacted...
The audience were asked/told to be quiet, but who knows why!?
Hermoso!! Gracias por tu reacción, me suscribo a tu canal ❤
Deep Purple. I can't say enough. I see you reacted to Highway Star. Can't wait to see that.
If it wasn't for the trifecta of Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, and Led Zeppelin there would not have been Heavy Metal or Hair Metal in the late 70's 80's or 90's
Ian Gillan pitch perfect a brilliant voice!
Great reaction, Silas.
Please, check the audio of “Strange kind of woman” from the live album “Made in Japan”. You will not regret it, I can assure it to you.
And the audience is sitting there like zombies lol
Blackmore's last round with Gibson
I always laugh at 04:51 with the lady in blue acting like she is bored out of her mind , as they are playing their best live performance ever!
That was the respectful amount of gob smacked and also gave me fond flashbacks to me spazzing out with an air guitar in my bedroom back in the day, which at 52 I obviously don't do anymore (that's a lie).
Hi Silas, I hope you will react in the future to " BURN" Deep Purple....(studio version)
Kid gets it
