This has gotta be my favorite Deep Purple track. Ritchies intro riff was just way ahead of its time.. that vibrato control is unreal. Don't forget about Jon Lord! Dang man, glad you had a chance to witness this.
I was a huge Deep Purple nut when I was a teen. The "Made in Japan" live version of "Lazy" is spectacular! R.I.P. Jon Lord! ua-cam.com/video/uflsjU95lRM/v-deo.html
50 years ago dancing in my room, my dad yelling “turn that @#+* down!”. Makes me so happy to see you enjoy it today! Wore out 2 copies of this album 😁🥰
Space Truckin is a great follow up song to Lazy on this album. And of course Smoke On The Water is probably their most known song which has a great intro before any lyrics, also on the same album.
I prefer the Made in Japan version of Smoke, it's a bit quicker. Probably prefer it as it's the first version I heard, there's that little departure thing Blackmore did early on, love it.
One of my favorite Deep Purple tunes. Every instrument is doing its part, and doing so in a way that makes this song a masterpiece. Lord, Blackmore and Paice are just rocking out.
I have always loved how this song just takes its time building up. There is no way modern music would allow a song to just go on like that. Really enjoying your diversity of reactions, you're taking me back a long way. Keep it up.
@stalrunner Yeah Deep Purple needs to get a steady spot in our rotation in general, so many tracks by them to hit, and then the live versions are apparently as good if not x10 better from what you guys are sayin’
You know good music when you hear it. I mean, I heard everything there is to hear, and Deep Purple is absolute class. They have expression, drive, style, mystery and everything else.
I've came across three top ten guitarists of all time videos that have no sight nor sound of Ritchie Blackmore. Each time, like a mug, I would watch right to the end, expecting him there, but no! I don't ever want to trash any guitarist out there, but Blackmore should at least be able to be make anyone's top ten.
Deep Purple’s Machine Head is one of the best Hard Rock album of all time. A collection of hits (Smoke On The Water, Highway Star, Lazy, Never Before, etc). And Lazy’s intro is just awesome (hail to Jon Lord, The keyboard wizard).
Ian Paice’s drumming , Glover on bass driving this beast of a song. When I first heard this song you never could guess where it was going to go, it’s got everything. RIP Jon Lord. Ritchie Blackmore, you rock 👍
Ron Nelson obviously if you’re a fan you’ll know this song. He means that it’s not one of the hits that a non fan would hear and say they know like smoke on The water or Highway Star.
@@jeremydraper733 Thank you 👍🏼 I was thinking it must be 'snarky Wednesday' or something 😉 Id also say, Deep Purple themselves are reasonably obscure, unless your a fan "of a certain age" 😊 Of course, they aren't Wishbone Ash either, now that's obscure.
This was the first album I ever bought. It was so good that I have worn out 3 copies. I also took a pilgrimage to Montreux. I had shivers all over my body the day I was there. Freddie was a bonus. Also some fine looking scenery there too, if you know what I mean.
I’m 63 years old. Deep Purple was my favorite band and I haven’t heard this song in at least 35 years. Still awestruck by the musicianship! Still my favorite!
You are helping me appreciate music I took for granted. A lot of these older pieces were just back ground music at parties and the neighborhood. Listening with you is like hearing them for the first time.
YES! Cheers to you man thanks for the shout out, I watch your videos ALL the time for songs I’ve heard, Try ‘Child in Time’ or ‘Highway Star’ by DP next for some straight SAUCE! Love your work! 🔥🙌🏻🤟🏻 - Andy 😎
My favorite song from Machine Head, which I started listening to excessively during the 4th grade or so. RIP Jon Lord, one of the best rock keyboardists ever.
50 years ago this album and song was blasting in Athens Greece when I was serving my country....50 years ago....damn, seems like yesterday....good reactio.
I'm still pushing for Strange Kind of Woman from MiJ. The live arrangement with the call and response between Ritchie and Ian is absolutely brilliant. Add Ian's earth shattering screams with Blackmore's superior proficiency on solos throughout and you have one of the most original live songs ever recorded. It's time for some REACTION!
Thank you, man. My favorite band. And the whole of "Machinehead" is a great album. PLEASE do the opening track, "Highway Star". You won 't be disappointed, I promise my friend.
The entire Machine Head album by Deep Purple KILLS! Every track is monumental. Seriously, pick any one, you’ll love it. It’s probably my favorite Deep Purple album.
This was one of those "changed my life" albums. My sister is 4 years older than me and when she bought this album when it was released and I heard songs like this it was my introduction to "heavier" music.
The best hard rock/blues/rock/classical keyboard player that ever lived. Also the only one at the time that ran his hammond through Marshall amps PURE GENIUS
This was one of my father's favorite songs, though not a musician himself, he had many friends who were, of those that played guitar, he would grin ear-to-ear watching their reactions (sound familiar, Jamal ? LOLl), when he'd put on this song, if they'd never it before. My father was one of the last of the great patrons. If he liked your band, he'd show up to see you play with friends & ready to start the party. He was always great fun to be with, always in the center of the action. I miss him very much since he died in 2014. Today is his 75th birthday, and unlike the last few yrs, his absence is strongly felt in a way that I haven't felt since the first yr he was gone. I happened to stop by your channel & see what your reacting to today, surprise! It's as if my sweet Daddy sent me a message telling me everything is alright. Thank you, Jamal
@@kickahaw There's also a great video on You Tube of Government Mule with Roger Glover on bass doing "Maybe I'm a Leo" If you haven't seen it, you should check it out.
Jamal...you are the mot refreshing thing I have found on You Tube. You don’t trivialize or dismiss any song. You treat them with fresh eyes and an open mind. Thank You.
Thank you for giving this song a listen. I requested and hoped you would discover them. Jon Lord's sound and playing on the Hammond organ may have been imitated by some over the years but nobody comes close to the original. He was major influence in my musical development. He passed away in 2012 but his music and sound are forever
Machine Head was the first album I ever bought. Smoke on the Water had the opening rift every non guitar player could fake. My favorite was Space Truckin'
Very talented and under rated band. I always viewed them as being just as good as zepplin. Ian Gillam is one of the best rock singers of all time and Richie Blackmore is a great guitar player and then there was the late great Lord on the keyboards. Great song and as many other post here the live version is really great.
I love watching these. Deep Purple was my first rock show. It was 1973 and I was 11. Blew my little mind. I went with a buddy. He was 12 and we were properly chaperoned.
You need to do "Woman from Tokyo!" Best cymbal and hi-hat work in rock history. The '99 Mix is the longest studio version, and it sounds particularly great.
The whole album "Machine Head" that this song came from is amazing.Just picк a song: "Highway Star" , "Space Truckin" ,"Smoke on the Water" , "Pictures of home" , "Never Before" and "Maybe I'm a Leo"
Jamel, now that Lost in Vegas has gone mostly Patreon, I’m down to you and, recently, Alex & Andy as my two can’t-miss reaction channels. Way to give them a shoutout. Proving once again you’re a stand-up “community” guy, not just me, me, me. Sharing the love.
I saw Deep Purple during the Perfect Stranger tour. Man! My grandfather turned me on to Deep Purple when I was an early teen with the live Made in Japan album. Changed my life forever. Lazy, Highway Star, and Child in Time are my favorite tracks on that album. It just kicks some serious ass.
This was my favorite band when i was a teen with Led Zeppelin was #2 favorite. Saw Deep Purple in Aug 1972 at the Civic Arena, incredible concert!!!! Then again in 1974, Mach 3, Richfield Coliseum, Cleveland! Again incredible. Went to the concert with a girl i really liked who became my wife 3 years later ! ;-) We're in our 60's and still love Deep Purple and Led!!
Un consejo para apreciar la verdadera dimensión de Deep Purple hay que escucharlos siempre en vivo y si son versiones del Made in Japan muchísimo mejor, es el mejor disco grabado en vivo de la historia...., y nos da la verdadera dimensión y grandeza del grupo en absoluto estado de gracia. Saludos
Another 1 of my very favorites from the "old days"! This has to be Ritchie's all-time smoothest solo, in a career filled with great guitar work. It's blues, but really bordering on jazz. Timeless & incredible! Jamel, you mean you don't react to anything unless others are reacting? I understand about not wanting to get blocks/strikes, but then on the other hand, how do you find any new music that no one's yet reacting to?
I'll never forget 1st hearing this. I was 13 & into all the 60s/early 70s radio stuff at the time. This sounds like a funeral! Then its a horror movie! One of the coolest intro's in history! It sounded like nothing on the radio. Then Made In Japan came out............................61 years old and still a full on Deep Purple freak.
After that "Phantom Of The Opera" organ intro by Jon Lord, it settles down and becomes a plain ol' 12-bar Blues. That's lead singer Ian Gillan on harp (AKA harmonica).
I played this song for a friend that was into that grungy pig squealing trash metal. He thought the band wouldn't so any screaming and had never heard of Deep Purple. His jaw hit the floor at the shredding guitar solos and long drawn out Laaaazzzyyy!!! I'm so glad my dad got me hooked on classic rock. It's the cats ass. Screamo doesn't hold a candle to bands like Deep Purple.
They don't put a SINGLE NOTE wrong! Not a one! This was and is 100% definitive rock and I've so enjoyed watching your reaction dude - same as me like me 45 years ago when I first heard this
The whole machine head album is fantastic! Every song is good!
One of the first albums I ever bought.
To me , it remains their best album ever. Still love those tracks to this day. Timeless jam .......
@@mikehenson819 Yes, easily their best
One of the best all time albums. Genius.
Agreed I love fireball to.
This has gotta be my favorite Deep Purple track. Ritchies intro riff was just way ahead of its time.. that vibrato control is unreal. Don't forget about Jon Lord! Dang man, glad you had a chance to witness this.
New Haven Coliseum
Perfect Strangers Tour Feb 26th 1985 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Roger Glover bringin' it home with that bass!
@@joepeirmont6026 dont forget Ian Paice.... relisten to the track and just con concentrate on the drums! He has the afastest hands in Rock!
I was a huge Deep Purple nut when I was a teen. The "Made in Japan" live version of "Lazy" is spectacular! R.I.P. Jon Lord!
ua-cam.com/video/uflsjU95lRM/v-deo.html
Me too! Always overshadowed by that 'other' band, but did their guitarist ever play so cleanly? Na 👍
Deep Purple Made in Japan is the best live album I've ever heard. First heard it back in 1972.
Oh yeah. Have it in my truck right now.
I second that, Live in Japan is a must see/listen.
@@SphinxDG Me too. Exactly. Word for word what you said!
50 years ago dancing in my room, my dad yelling “turn that @#+* down!”. Makes me so happy to see you enjoy it today! Wore out 2 copies of this album 😁🥰
I really can invision that!
I wore our FOUR 8 tracks of Made in Japan.
I had Hallelujah on 45. It was my 1st record.
Space Truckin is a great follow up song to Lazy on this album. And of course Smoke On The Water is probably their most known song which has a great intro before any lyrics, also on the same album.
oh HELL Yes.
Yeah, I've seen multiple song reactions from this album, but nobody ever seems to do Space Truckin'.
I prefer the Made in Japan version of Smoke, it's a bit quicker. Probably prefer it as it's the first version I heard, there's that little departure thing Blackmore did early on, love it.
Live in Japan 1972, Disc 2. Space Truckin' is absolutely epic. 20 minutes of hypnosis.
I echo Space Truckin
One of my favorite Deep Purple tunes. Every instrument is doing its part, and doing so in a way that makes this song a masterpiece. Lord, Blackmore and Paice are just rocking out.
Yep..and this is how you use keyboards in Rock without making it turn into a pop sound
@@thaismatsumoto That Jon Lord intro gets me every time I hear this tune. Just, stellar. Masterful.
The live version on Made in Japan extends the jam out a bit, including Jon Lord's keyboard intro. I think it's the best version.
Made in japan was the best versions :)
Amen! Preachin' to the choir!
Made In Japan just does it for me!
Absolutely! Made In Japan is also one of the best live albums ever recorded.
Made in Japan also happens to be the first album that I ever owned. It’s still in my top five.
I have always loved how this song just takes its time building up. There is no way modern music would allow a song to just go on like that.
Really enjoying your diversity of reactions, you're taking me back a long way. Keep it up.
Gotta have patience, sit back and just LISTEN. It might be a lost art!
Just letting Richie Blackmore shred is always a good strategy
Him and Lord might be the greatest duo ever
Love Blackmore's strat tones
He definitely brings life to those old blues licks. Great stuff! 🤟🏻🔥
@@andyandalex y'all gotta do the Made in Japan version. Blackmore and Lord go way off script.
@stalrunner
Yeah Deep Purple needs to get a steady spot in our rotation in general, so many tracks by them to hit, and then the live versions are apparently as good if not x10 better from what you guys are sayin’
Together with Pink Floyd, Deep Purple are the finest rock band you could ever listen to. Nothing but talent.
The Doors as well
They don't play the blues, they play DEEP PURPLE. Yeah baby.
Well stated!!!!!
same here, well said.
Man that's DEEP.
A deeper version of blue
*pun intended*
Deep Purple=Deep Purple!
You know good music when you hear it. I mean, I heard everything there is to hear, and Deep Purple is absolute class. They have expression, drive, style, mystery and everything else.
Richie Blackmore, one of the greatest guitar players of Rock.
Adolfo Blando
In Gillian sang In Jesus Christ
Super star
Do not forget the only original member throughout the bands history and fiendishly, other worldly drumming by the sensational southpaw Ian Pace!😁🥁
One of the most talented bands of all time
"Deep Purple were like a bad marriage but with great sex" best quote on them I've ever heard.
Jonty Piper I know the feeling. I didn't have a great marriage but the sex was amazing and phenomenal
LOL, never heard that before either!! 😂 Quite accurate, I'd say!!
Too True!
MACHINE HEAD ÁLBUM ENTRE LOS 10 MEJORES DE LA HISTORIA DEL ROCK 🤘🏻 LOVE DEEP PURPLE!!!
Deep Purple, One of the greatest bands with the absolutely best guitarist in it (IMO): Ritchie Blackmore Badass!
I've came across three top ten guitarists of all time videos that have no sight nor sound of Ritchie Blackmore. Each time, like a mug, I would watch right to the end, expecting him there, but no! I don't ever want to trash any guitarist out there, but Blackmore should at least be able to be make anyone's top ten.
@@ginnywhat5777 absolutely agree!

Ian Paice’s drumming , Glover on bass driving this beast of a song. When I first heard this song you never could guess where it was going to go, it’s got everything. RIP Jon Lord. Ritchie Blackmore, you rock 👍
One of my all-time favorite songs. Though I usually crank up the live version on Made In Japan! Both are great!
Brother you have now experienced the greatness of Deep Purple. A rock, funk, jazz, prog band all rolled into one. You are awesome to chose this one.
He should listen to Hush, Fireball, and Stormbringer next.
Absolutely at the top of their game. Every note , every pause , every change , just brilliant. Really, what’s not to like?
Wow! One of Deep Purples BEST lesser known songs!! Thank you J!
Lesser known? If you're a Purple fan it's well known!
Next: "Highway Star", please.
@@ronnelson7828 Of course it is, and I am, my statement is still true. Is this come after everyone day on the internet? lol
Ron Nelson obviously if you’re a fan you’ll know this song. He means that it’s not one of the hits that a non fan would hear and say they know like smoke on The water or Highway Star.

Deep-Effin"-Purple. We've been jamming to this since 72".
Yes, yes we have.
Turned my crew's music life around!!!!
still sounds pure brill
Second album I ever bought. First was In-a-godda-da-vida.
I’m 63 years old. Deep Purple was my favorite band and I haven’t heard this song in at least 35 years. Still awestruck by the musicianship! Still my favorite!
This whole album "Machine Head" is awesome! Every song is a banger!
My first 8 track
ANOTHER great song on your channel! Thanks. My favorite song on this GREAT album.
'Perfect Strangers' by Deep Purple.
I remember waiting for this album to come out & then went & bought it myself, I was 14, awesome album!
this isn't a good song, it's a great, song
(the title track off said album)
Purpie strangers Deep Perfect
Yesssss
After the Arthur mix up, it would be hilarious if he reacted to cousin Balki. LOL
Another great reaction, to the best group ever!! Good one my friend :-)
Now we're talking!! One of the greatest rock bands ever with a classic track from machine head. Thanks for reacting to this FANTASTIC song😀😀😀
You are helping me appreciate music I took for granted. A lot of these older pieces were just back ground music at parties and the neighborhood. Listening with you is like hearing them for the first time.

One of the greatest albums ever!
First lp I ever bought, I was 7...
My absolute favorite Deep Purple song!
Mine, too...I think ‘Hold On’ from the ‘Stormbringer’ album is close.
Space trucking is mine
My favorite song from Machine Head, which I started listening to excessively during the 4th grade or so. RIP Jon Lord, one of the best rock keyboardists ever.
This was music when music was music, blues jazz, and rock with The Lord, John Lord leading the way on that church organ.🤩
50 years ago this album and song was blasting in Athens Greece when I was serving my country....50 years ago....damn, seems like yesterday....good reactio.
John Lord's super modified Hammond organ sound is legendary... so raw!

Add Ian's earth shattering screams with Blackmore's superior proficiency on solos throughout and you have one of the most original live songs ever recorded. It's time for some REACTION!
"When a Blind Man cries" is one of Deep Purple's best tunes...you need to react to that one for sure.
Real music. Real musicians. Creativity at it's best. Amazing times. I was there.

"Highway Star" live
The entire Machine Head album by Deep Purple KILLS! Every track is monumental. Seriously, pick any one, you’ll love it. It’s probably my favorite Deep Purple album.
Some of the best versions are on "Made In Japan" their live album. Everything on that would merit a reaction!

There’s just an excitement when listening to Deep Purple. I’m 53 and their music just never gets old.
Awesome, my favorite Deep Purple song! My late husband and I would turn this way up, and just sit there and bask in the wonderfulness!
Sorry about your husband
@@michellepoole284 thank you.
There’s nothing lazy about the musicianship in this song!
This was one of those "changed my life" albums. My sister is 4 years older than me and when she bought this album when it was released and I heard songs like this it was my introduction to "heavier" music.
The best hard rock/blues/rock/classical keyboard player that ever lived. Also the only one at the time that ran his hammond through Marshall amps PURE GENIUS
You need to do "Pictures of Home" from the same album. Basically, everybody gets a solo. :^)
YES! ALSO "Maybe I'm a Leo"
This was one of my father's favorite songs, though not a musician himself, he had many friends who were, of those that played guitar, he would grin ear-to-ear watching their reactions (sound familiar, Jamal ?

Come on...
Let’s go
But MADE IN JAPAN . COHONES YA
My favorite from Deep Purple....
Awesome choice & thanks to the people who suggested this!!!
You gotta do „Highway Star“ next brother, it‘s stankface 10000 trust me..and then „When A Blind Man Cries“ to cool down a bit;)
The studio version of Highway is not too good..The lead on it is terrible ..Made IN jAPAN version is the best
@@VIDSTORAGE Agreed and personally, I prefer the Made in Japan version of Lazy too.
He should do the Made in Japan version of Highway Star, all 20 minutes of it! The stank will eat his face up!
@@santoprattico6027 Made in Japan is one of the best live albums ever ..I cannot say who has the best one because I like so many ..
@@VIDSTORAGE So true, but it's up there with the best, iMHO...
That HAS to be some of the finest geetar you ever heard...be honest, now...
Deep Purple, this is one of the top 5 of my favorite bands ever. Must listen to smoke on the water, highway star, women from Tokyo.
Their is Great and their is Great ! The Organ ,The Drums ,The Singer ,The Bass , and Then Richie Blackmore on Guitar , UNREAL!
One of the best rock albums ever made! One of the first I ever bought back in the '70's
I've lost count of the amount of 'de-seeding' done on this album cover back in the 70s...lol...
Thank you for giving this song a listen. I requested and hoped you would discover them. Jon Lord's sound and playing on the Hammond organ may have been imitated by some over the years but nobody comes close to the original. He was major influence in my musical development. He passed away in 2012 but his music and sound are forever
Deep Purple knew how to make the music swing. A lot of bands never learned how.
Absolutely, man. That had a lot to do with Ian Paice. The dude knew how to swing for sure.
The lead vocalist sang the part of Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar on the original demo.
You’re dead right. Look for the isolated drums for Highway Star. Even that swings!
Machine Head was the first album I ever bought. Smoke on the Water had the opening rift every non guitar player could fake. My favorite was Space Truckin'
Hard Lovin' Man next, maybe? Probably one of their most underrated songs, but a beast of a track!
Deep Purple and Ritchie Blackmore. One of the best marriages in music history. Love me some Blackmore Night too.
Very talented and under rated band. I always viewed them as being just as good as zepplin. Ian Gillam is one of the best rock singers of all time and Richie Blackmore is a great guitar player and then there was the late great Lord on the keyboards. Great song and as many other post here the live version is really great.
Probably the greatest rock singer EVER! Not to mention how great every one in that band is! Was!
That instrumental intro hits different than anything I've ever heard since.
I love watching these.
Deep Purple was my first rock show. It was 1973 and I was 11. Blew my little mind.

"Never Before" has one of the smoothest, funkiest intros in rock history
Not only my favorite Deep Putple song, but my favorite song ever period.
Yyyeeeesssss i never could figure
Out why radio never played this cool tune thanks J. Check out the hollies he ain't heavy he's my brother
It was to long of a song. Didn't fit the 3 minute format
He’s done that Hollies song already
One of my 2 favorite Deep Purple songs. The 2nd being 'Space Truckin' off the same record as Lazy. PLEASE react to Space Truckin'.
You should do Deep Purple- April. One of the most beautiful songs ever
Highway Star is a must! Another great Deep Purple song.

Blackmore, Gillan, Glover, Lord, & Paice...FOREVER! 💜
What a great ending to a song,they knew what they were doing.
I played this song for a friend that was into that grungy pig squealing trash metal.
He thought the band wouldn't so any screaming and had never heard of Deep Purple. His jaw hit the floor at the shredding guitar solos and long drawn out Laaaazzzyyy!!!
I'm so glad my dad got me hooked on classic rock. It's the cats ass. Screamo doesn't hold a candle to bands like Deep Purple.
They don't put a SINGLE NOTE wrong! Not a one! This was and is 100% definitive rock and I've so enjoyed watching your reaction dude - same as me like me 45 years ago when I first heard this
This is one of the greatest songs ever.
My First Band and First Album as an introduction to Rock Music. Still love it and them today. I’ve been hooked ever since
one of my favourite songs is 'perfect strangers.' just bad ass.
Deep Purple Highway Star dammit!!!!!! You'll love it!
