    That's the reason why any average band's attempt to cover this supposedly simple song is bound to fail miserably.

      There's so much nuance to this song. I've never seen anyone do it justice, including Deep Purple in '98! This is why I'm hellbent on covering properly :)

      The whole world is playing the chorus wrong! Lorde play C minor in the chorus! I heard this nuance in 1975, when I was 12 years old.

    The best hard rock songs have a touch of melancholy about them. This song is about a sad event, and the volcanic organ parts reflect the fire. Even though Jon Lord didn't write the lyrics - Gillan/Glover did - the fire would've been fresh in his memory. But listen to the chord changes in an "up" song like Boys Are Back In Town and you'll find that melancholy, "lost summer" air.

    Wow, he plays a C minor chord at 1:08, even though the melody has the major third (E). Never noticed that before but now that I listened to the album, yes, it is there. Kind of strange.
    Then again, behind the guitar solo he plays C major chords but the bassist uses Eb over it. Well, I guess that's just bluesy...

    • @MaggaraMarine

      *****
      Yes, and that's exactly what I just said.
      Also, using both minor and major third is really not that rare (that's just bluesy, gives a 7#9 sound). It was just something I had never noticed before in this song. Though, usually it is not used the way it's used in this song. If you want to create a G Dorian framework, I would avoid playing the Eb in the bass. The bass clearly implies Gm and Cm chords. Usually if you want a 7#9 sound, the #9 is used in the melody, not in the bass because the bass is the foundation. Implying a Cm chord with the bass and playing C major over it sounds like a Cm chord with a major third played over it. Implying a C major chord with the bass and playing Cm(7) over it on the other hand sounds like C7#9. Not sure if it was intentional/thought out or if they were just jamming and that's the way they played it.

    What really irritated me in 2012 was that some "rock expert" used this opening riff to illustrate Jon Lord's talent. The idiot said: "This shows how simple his work was - not complicated like Yes music". Ignorant or very ignorant? Rick Wakeman himself will tell you how good Jon Lord was. The so-called expert didn't play a single solo or rhythm part.

      Also, if you break the harmonies of some of the best classical hits, you'll see that the simplest is the most catchiest. For example- Beethoven's 5th symphony. Only 2 different notes in 4 beats. So simple.

    Awesome... JL was a rock keyboard genius! To make this fairly simple chord progression into a master piece and blueprint for classic rock is his trademark and why bands like Purple are still streets ahead of newer bands. Innovative and still refreshing now 30+ years on. Great to hear the isolated tracks. Thanks ... :-) I am going to use Gillan's vocal stem in my own work! Cool.

    Guitar starts on this one,this is where he edited the actual master from, the organ comes in the 3rd time? Space Truckin is the one that starts with Organ, even Jon Lord says this in an interview from the making of Machine Head

    • @LangleyNA
      @LangleyNA 4 роки тому +3

      I do not feel we need anything other than our ears to know which instrument starts on which piece. The sounds and the performance techniques of the instruments and the artists are distinct from one another across the record. They also regularly pan the guitar and organ to separate channels on the record. I feel there is no mistaking the organ on this record. Anyone who frustrates with this may only require more experience. :) Become familiar with the instrument, with different qualities of sound like distortion and drive, and with how organists or guitarists play their instruments. Understand that the organ was a Hammond through a Marshall stack, I believe. And the sound should be recognized distinctly from the guitar at this point.
      You are correct, @john elton. "Space Truckin'" begins with Jon Lord's organ performance in the right channel and the electric bass in the center channel. "Smoke on the Water" begins with (Ritchie Blackmore's?) electric guitar performance in the left channel.
