I just happened to have subbed before reading this, after months of watching. You have a geniune vibe and you’re really open minded. You appreciate good stuff. Take care and good luck with the scammers!
You mentioned Glenn Hughes. He joined Deep Purple in 1974. He played bass and sung in Trapeze, Deep Purple, Black Country Communion, California Breed, Hughes Turner Project/HTP, The Dead Daisies and was the vocalist on the Black Sabbath album Seventh Star.
Hi Mollyboy that was awesome. Ritchie Blackmore on guitar one of the best guitarists on the planet. Ian Gillan on vocals. You probably know one of their songs SMOKE ON THE WATER. GILLAN AND DIO ARE MY 2 FAVOIRITE VOCALISTS. DEEP PURPLE ARE STILL ON THE GO WITH IAN GILLAN ON VOCALS 😊🤘🤘💖
Please hit Trapeze! Particularly off their second album, You Are the Music... We're Just the Band, title song. Glenn Hughes amazing vocals and rock funk vibe.
PLEASE LISTEN TO: "Rainbow"🌈 is a British hard rock band founded in 1975 by Ritchie Blackmore, who started a solo project after leaving Deep Purple. (Still I´M sad, Mistreated...)
Gillan and Coverdale were both excellent singers but my favourite was Coverdale, Come Taste the Band and Burn being my favourite Purple albums, although Machine Head & Deep Purple in Rock were excellent as all Purple albums were. ✌🏽🌎✊🏽
Thire wasn't masses filmed so try their album tracks. Their live album Made In Japan is largely regarded as the greatest live album of all time. Check out Highway Star, Lazy and Strange Kind of Woman on it. It also has THE best version of Child In Time on it But it all HAS to be from Made In Japan as other versions often have poor mixes.
I love DP as much as anyone, but there is still good music and talented musicians out there, even now! Sadness, Unreqvited, Rose Dying in the Rain, Wintersun, Ne Obliviscaris are all fantastic and technically accomplished artists :) (P.S My friend Martin actually used the Child in Time lyrics in his 'Explain your favourite poem' section of his English lit O level, he got an A 🤣 )
@roymauler Plenty of great bands out there with incredible musicians doing interesting stuff they're just not in the charts these days. Just watched Haken play in bangkok. They're very progy so not everyone's taste but they are fantastic!
@roymauler Yup, I'm mostly listening to European prog rock & prog metal bands - there's quite a scene! Also quite a few good bands out of Australia too - Wheel, Voyager, Caligula's Horse, Karnivool.
To people who aren't that immersed in keyboard players' world it might sound strange, but playing a Hammond keyboard is entirely different from playing any other keyboard. There are entirely different techniques to the art, many of them based on playing seemingly dissonant notes, playing legato (letting the tone continue) where a regular pianist/keyboardist would only do a quick tap, using the tone generator's resonance to create various effects, etc. Basically you can spend 10 years learning piano techniques, reading musical score from paper, getting a "feel" for the instruments.. then you start studying Hammond keyboard and throw away three quarters of the stuff you thought you knew, and study for another five or ten years to be a good player. There are rare exceptions of players who have a natural talent for playing in that manner, and those can turn the keyboard into a true Beast - like Jon Lord did.
Singer Iain Gillan is the absolute archetype for the heavy metal voice. His falsetto (really high voice) and his SCREAM is what gave us legends like Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson. Every member of this magnificent band is a virtuoso in their own right coming together to bring us MAGIC.
@@DB-bx7fm - Correct. can't forget Eric "death to false metal" Adams 😁👍. I suspect another singer strongly influenced by Gillan as well is Geoff Tate from QueensrRyche.
Mollyboy - discovered you yesterday....watching you as you discover these classics is awesome......WE know whats coming, and just seeing your face as suddenly everything moves up a gear is so beautiful....keep on reacting dude! Respect! And ignore the negative commenters....dont waste your energy on them.
Deep Purple, along with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin were known as "the unholy trinity." Deep Purple were a PHENOMENAL band. Check out HIGHWAY STAR, SMOKE ON THE WATER and BURN for starters.
@@psbarrow regardless that’s why the crowd is still and quiet. They were asked to be and of course back then people obliged. Today, probably not so much. Not sure where I read that it was for the BBC.
@@MollyBoyTV This was 1970. Unless they had been to a Hendrix or Zeppelin concert they had probably not witnessed this kind of FIRE before, and were probably shocked into a silent stupor by this explosive and astounding band. By the way, the singer is Ian Gillan, not Glenn Hughes.
@@MollyBoyTVIt's called acid. Sometimes you don't even blink when watching something. You will cry from not blinking. Lol Not that I would know anything about it.😁
You are young. I love your honesty. I am an old fart. UK had the best groups since forever. American play to a formula. British Bands (and comedy) are pushing boundaries. e.g Bowie could never have been American. Monty Python could never have been American. And I am not British and not American. So no bias. British music is BRILLIANT.
One of the 3 big tenors Pavarotti said that Ian Gillan was a force of nature when he sang, You dont need more recognition than that! I grew up and heard Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin as some of the first rock music...and I have never left it. I grew up in the best time ever music wise! Jon Lord (RIP) on keyboard was also a genius....and guitarist Ritchie Blackmoore was ahead of his time and a brilliant player...and still is. Ian Gillan still sing to this day. This is music history at its finest.
Man .... the world is STILL LISTENING to all the 60s and 70s BRITISH BANDS that were/are AMAZING. 60 YEARS LATER....that's how earth shatteringly good they are.
If You are learning to play guitar, "Smoke on the water" was what all of us '70s teenagers practiced, and our neighbors are still cursing us for that. Whatever, You definitely need to react to Smoke on the water by Deep Purple. It is one of the rock anthems of that weird but wonderful decade. It has one of the most epic guitar riffs ever.
I'm so glad you reacted to this. I mean they were such an influential and important band in the history of rock music. They influenced so many bands for years afterwards. All four of them were just amazing. And Jon Lord on Hammond B-3 organ with the rotating Leslie speaker and other Keys was an incredibly essential part of the mix. They all were. They were all top of their game. If you like this, I'm sure your mind will be blown when you listen to their hit Highway Star from their iconic album machine head. They are always so good live but I would strongly advise you to check out the studio recording of that one. It's just absolutely blazes and then you see Jon Lord playing simultaneously these faster arpeggios for a bit with Ritchie Blackmore on the guitar, and everything about it just Cooks like crazy and it's so filled with attitude and it's just Balls to the wall. There is such a long-running joke about how many people have been issued speeding tickets while blasting this as they cruise down the road. It's an absolute banger, and they really show off on that one.
The bloke on the guitar is no other than the guitar wizard himself, Ritchie Blackmore, a true virtuoso! This is the classic Deep Purple line up: Jon Lord, organ, Roger Glover, bass, Ian Paice, drums, Ian Gillan, vocals, and Blackmore, guitar. Each one of these guys was/is a superbly accomplished musician in his own right with a perfect sense of time; but performances like this one come from practicing incessantly and a love for playing live (no autotune or special effects). Those of us who saw Deep Purple at that time, certainly remember their mastery and loudness.
no auto tunes, no computer, just 5 young guys from London at the top of their game performing all playing instruments not computers, like it should be done, real talent...and how they all drop as one after the solos back to john lord on the organ for the second half...that's genius
Yes Bro, i like your comments, specially If young guys could see how all the heavy metal bands from those years could make music like that with guitars, drums organs, keyboards and great vocals. Did you no that that most of them had all Master degrees in Music. Please react to Huriah Heep and Nazareth. Keep Well
@@MissMariQueen For your information, when my brother and I were kids, both of our parents worked, until late afternoon. My brother and I would go home after school and then listen to music until our parents arrived. So I can say that we grew up with 60s and 70s rock music.
The guitarist Richie Blackmore later formed Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio, who later replaced Ozzy in Black Sabbath. When Dio left Sabbath in 1982, he was replaced by Deep Purple's singer Ian Gillian for one album. Deep Purple's song "Lazy" is definitely not lazy.
as a 70yr old rock music fanatic i am busy binge watching you react {in no particular order} to the music i have loved from the mid 60s to present day and its fascinating to see your appreciation growing with each vid keep it up and before long youll be growing your hair good on yer
Don't be fooled by the specific performance, as it was in a television studio with a live television audience and they were actually told that they had to be as quiet as possible so that the performance could be recorded with that primitive setting. But there is other live footage from them at the time that looks a lot more like a regular Rock concert with people just going crazy and stuff. A lot of people when they first see this have that reaction as did i, but the reality is it's a very special situation but we're so lucky to have this footage because you get such good up close footage of them just all totally doing their thing and kicking ass. And the fidelity is great.
Love Deep Purple. Their early stuff and when they reunited for Perfect Strangers they showed they still had it in 1984. All masters of their instruments and Ian Gillan's voice is incredible.
The story behind Deep Purple's song 'Highway Star' is bonkers and really highlights just how good they actually were: They were doing an interview on their tour bus between venues, and the reporter asked them about how they wrote their songs. In response, front man Ian Gillan asked the reporter for a topic (a car was the choice), drummer Ian Paice to give him a beat, and bassist Roger Glover for a bass line. Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore then chimed in that he had a riff he thought would work, and John Lord (keyboard) joined in shortly thereafter. Within 15 minutes, the beginnings of 'Highway Star' had taken shape, and it was ready for performance by the time they arrived at their destination.
I went to see this live in San Diego, California . Rory Gallager opend then Fleetwood Mack then Deep Purple. I'm 71 and have been to many many concerts and that was one I will never forget. I had been a fan of deep purple and fleetwood mac. But had never listened to rory gallager. We were standing 10 feet from the stage and rory came out and just went nuts on the guitar. And the concert never slowed down. Great great concert. You would like rory galleger. By the way your channel is very good and your reactions are a joy to watch.
I literally said "oh yes!" out loud and clicked instantly. I hope you go huge bro, you're great. empathy, realness, kind way of speaking etc. props to you, cheers! ✌💚
Ian Gillian is one of the greatest singers whose ever lived and this band is straight up amazing. They're the progenitors of progressive metal. You won't be disappointed listening to more of their music. As far as guitar and keyboards interacting, check out Dream Theater
You will get to witness a truly great live band performing at their best. Heads up, the audience were instructed to not react to the live recording. Enjoy bro.
Every time I see this performance I can't imagine sitting in the audience and being able to keep still you can't pay me enough money I'd be grabbing the person next to me by the ears and just be like are you hearing this!!!
If this was filmed in the UK, audiences did not react like American audiences. They sat, watched and then clapped back in these days. Not sure they were instructed to do so, it’s just how they were.
"It's kind of slower and more mellow than what I expected." This made me smile. One of their most powerful songs, member of the unholy trinity: Sabbath, Zep, Deep Purple. The origins of it all.
I too was chuckling when Mollyboy said it was mellow...knowing what was coming up! It is nice to have him be exposed to the talent and virtuoso musicianship of progressive rock like this! Ps...I'm the Patreon who has been requesting this for months
You're listening to one of the greatest rock groups in history. This is true musicianship. There's nothing like this nowadays. All members with superb talents. Their album Machinehead is iconic. This band made me fall in love with the organ. Don't miss the lyrics though. He's singing about the horrors of war.
Deep purple at one time in the 70s were the loudest band in the world, they knocked 3 of their audience unconscious with the sound. I saw them a the Kings Hall Belveiw uk in 1974 and I was deaf for days.
Cream, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Nazareth, Deep Purple, Steppenwolf, Three Dog Night, and many others had great influence over my decision to embrace heavy rock-n-roll. I was born in 1960 and grew up with this genre of music.
Let's welcome this young man to real music's world. When talented people make music with real oldscool instruments or their voises, only thing you need computer for is to spread that talent to the world.
😮 Wooow!! Gracias por escuchar a la más grande banda de la Trinidad Impía. Deep Purple son mis favoritos, los escucho hace más de 50 años. La mejor formación ha sido MK II, con el Gran Ian Gillan, vocalista con un rango increíble!! Jon Lord, el gran teclado, con su Hammond; el tremendo Ritchi Blackmore ( algo antipático 😅); Roger Glover, súper bajista y qué decir del gran Ian Paice!! Cinco genios reunidos. RIP JON LORD 😢. La banda sigue hasta hoy, con tres de sus miembros principales. Gracias, gracias, gracias 🙏 Eres encantador!! 💜💜💜💜💜 Desde Chile, Suramérica ( al fin del mundo), te mando un abrazo 🤗
Nice one Bruce, another man of taste! If we could get him to stretch it to the whole of side two of the vinyl version then I'm sure he'd be a fan for life. Stargazer and Light In The Black (or Stargazer - The Continuation) are two of the greatest rock songs ever written. As a wag once said, "There are two types of people in the world. Those that say Stargazer is the greatest rock song ever written, and those that are wrong."
Every member a true legend. Jon Lord on keyboards, Ian Gillan singing, Ian Paice drumming, Roger Glover on bass, and the incomparable Ritchie Blackmore on guitar. You should check out Rainbow (also with Blackmore on guitar) and their song 'Stargazer'.
You can thank the audience for such a fine recording. They asked the audience to remain quiet as they would be recording. Ian Gillan had a 5 octave range. Smoke on the Water Lazy Highway Star ........

Mine too!
All absolute Legends in their own right. And in the maelstrom of this performance, how unbelievably tight? That dead stop after the solos… Chills….

Now you know why oldies say music today is crap.
Pure talent and the ability to play a musical instrument.
Years of practice .
Absolutely 100% correct! these bands had to know how to play their instruments back in the day so much competition
And no autotune! That obnoxious thing
@stephanielambart6983
Totally right , They do it well !!!🌸💕🌸💕🌸💕🌸💕🌸

And they can pack a groove.
No autotune. All live. All real 10/10
Yup & no in-ear or click, just listening to each other & jamming!
Back when bands could play.
@roymauler Plenty of great bands out there with incredible musicians doing interesting stuff they're just not in the charts these days. Just watched Haken play in bangkok. They're very progy so not everyone's taste but they are fantastic!
@@isuckatguitar6252 There is still a lot of good stuff out there in the underground. It is the mainstream pop stuff that is so awful now.
@roymauler Yup, I'm mostly listening to European prog rock & prog metal bands - there's quite a scene! Also quite a few good bands out of Australia too - Wheel, Voyager, Caligula's Horse, Karnivool.

Everybody in the band were great.
The 70’s was a different time, the best time that we’ll never see again.
"How do you play a solo on a keyboard?" Welcome to the world of the late, great John Lord. R.I.P. ❤
This is true but the name is Jon Lord.
To people who aren't that immersed in keyboard players' world it might sound strange, but playing a Hammond keyboard is entirely different from playing any other keyboard.

Jon, Lord of the Hammond
🔥 one of greatest rock bands of all time ✌🏻
I watched them live just one week ago. At least still Gillan, Paice and Glover, almost 80 years old and they rocked the hall...

Not to mention 'Machine Head' and 'Space Truckin''.
For joy with the keys: Lazy (Made in Japan, Deep Purple)
YES YES YES!!! LAZY!!!😃🥰😎
Uriah Heep also.
And all the cool grandmas said, "Thank you for checking our music out and appreciating it!"
Well, that was still handmade music - without samples, without autotune etc. Pure talent. AND it`s no keyboard - just a Hammond-Organ...!!!
REAL musicians making REAL music.
Amen !!!

This is in the TOP 5 Live Rock performances EVER!
100%!!!
The best ever

You have just witnessed one of pioneers of Heavy Metal music & one of the bands that influenced 90's bands!
80s as well.
Deep Purple - HUSH!!!!! Hush is one of my all time favorite songs!
Ian Gillan is the quintessential Rock vocalist of the last 50 plus years...Period. ✌️
I’d recommend Highway Star, Hush, Woman from Tokyo, and Smoke on the Water. All 4 are completely different but genius in their own right
His head will explode when he hears "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd, Pulse 1994 :)
If You are learning to play guitar, "Smoke on the water" was what all of us '70s teenagers practiced, and our neighbors are still cursing us for that.

Drummer Ian Paice is barely 21 years old here. He joined at age 19. Still badass to this day.
And the only original member still in the band.
At his peak he was as good as anyone ever.

I grew up with my mum, dad.

If this was filmed in the UK, audiences did not react like American audiences. They sat, watched and then clapped back in these days. Not sure they were instructed to do so, it’s just how they were.
The best keyboard of all times
This song like bohemian rhapsody are among the best songs ever made, such a masterpiece.
Haha, I smiled to myself when you said "it's a lot slower and mellow than I expected".
I thought, "just you wait boy" 😂❤️
"It's kind of slower and more mellow than what I expected." This made me smile. One of their most powerful songs, member of the unholy trinity: Sabbath, Zep, Deep Purple. The origins of it all.
I too was chuckling when Mollyboy said it was mellow...knowing what was coming up! It is nice to have him be exposed to the talent and virtuoso musicianship of progressive rock like this!
Ps...I'm the Patreon who has been requesting this for months
I was blessed enough to see Deep Purple with this band lineup. I couldn’t hear for three days. F’ing life changing.
Couldn’t hear the nagging ? Lol
I had the same in 1979, dec 22nd, queen crazy tour of London. Lol
Jon Lord was a BEAST on keys....and, IAN GILLAN'S VOCALS - and, Ritchie Blackmore & PAICE on the DRUMS - they were ALL tearing it UP!! OMG!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of, if not the greatest bands and guitarist...drummers, bassist, keyboardist, vocals ever!
100%
Every person in this band at this time were top notch. Everyone of them great.
My favorite band growin up! Ian Gillan had some pipes!! "Woman from Tokyo" and "Lazy" ❤ [Glenn Hughes didn't join Purple til much later]
You're listening to one of the greatest rock groups in history. This is true musicianship. There's nothing like this nowadays.
All members with superb talents. Their album Machinehead is iconic. This band made me fall in love with the organ.
Don't miss the lyrics though. He's singing about the horrors of war.
Deep Purple is definitely a band that you need to dig into more. In my opinion, they were the epitom of 70's heavy metal.
Deep Purple...HighwayStar is a must!!❤❤❤
Deep purple at one time in the 70s were the loudest band in the world, they knocked 3 of their audience unconscious with the sound. I saw them a the Kings Hall Belveiw uk in 1974 and I was deaf for days.
They really had that crowd going crazy.
Jeez, The audience are amazed, they are just in shock, they have never, ever, ever, heard vocals like this.
Always gets me how Roger Glover is just shredding the bass line throughout Richie Blackmore’s solo
Simply one of the greatist performances ever!
So much realism and soul in these 70's songs!
My favorite band! More Deep Purple please! Highway Star and Smoke on the Water are absolute musts!
Cream, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Nazareth, Deep Purple, Steppenwolf, Three Dog Night, and many others had great influence over my decision to embrace heavy rock-n-roll. I was born in 1960 and grew up with this genre of music.
Perfect line up, but you forgot Uriah Heep.
That keyboard blaaaa blaaa blaaa was Flight of the Butterfly. He was showing off his classical training. John was a master.
Flight of the bumblebee
@@Musicdok lol. Funny good catch. Of course I knew that but I was on strong pain meds when I posted. Good thing I wasn’t operating heavy equipment.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When I saw them, Jon had his keyboard on rockers.....amazing.
I love Deep Purple, and the rabbit hole is deep. Ritchie Blackmore is still my favorite guitarist.
Banger of the 70s .... Goosebumps evertime ....
I'm so glad I grew up listening to bands like this
It's a must to hear the whole "Deep purple in rock"...
A truly elite band from top to bottom.
Definitely do more Deep Purple, you will not be disappointed!!
It makes me happy that young people like yourself can enjoy the same things that I enjoyed 50 years ago 🙂
This is an incredible song! Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, Roger Glover are a force to be reckoned with!
don't forget Jon Lord
Or the magnificent Ian Paice, one of the best ever.
Fastest and smoothest hands in the business. His drum solo from Copenhagen 1972 is insane.
Yep, never flustered, drives it relentlessly forward and I concur, got the dvd of that show and I'm staggered every time I watch it.
Let's welcome this young man to real music's world. When talented people make music with real oldscool instruments or their voises, only thing you need computer for is to spread that talent to the world.
" he's got a good voice though......" Understatement of the Century. Great reaction though, you got it !
Ian Gillan is a rock vocal god!
😮 Wooow!! Gracias por escuchar a la más grande banda de la Trinidad Impía.
Deep Purple son mis favoritos, los escucho hace más de 50 años.
La mejor formación ha sido MK II, con el Gran Ian Gillan, vocalista con un rango increíble!! Jon Lord, el gran teclado, con su Hammond; el tremendo Ritchi Blackmore ( algo antipático 😅); Roger Glover, súper bajista y qué decir del gran Ian Paice!!
Cinco genios reunidos.
RIP JON LORD 😢.
La banda sigue hasta hoy, con tres de sus miembros principales.
Gracias, gracias, gracias 🙏
Eres encantador!!
💜💜💜💜💜
Desde Chile, Suramérica ( al fin del mundo), te mando un abrazo 🤗
Their bassist is great and often overlooked as well. I’ve played some of his bass lines. It’s a test of endurance
A classic from a great album..Deep Purple in Rock
I've seen this performance video maybe 100 times and it is captivating each and every time. What an amazing band!!
Sounds like you're ready for Rainbow's Stargazer. Same guitarist and Ronnie James Dio on vocals. Truly amazing combination.
Nice one Bruce, another man of taste! If we could get him to stretch it to the whole of side two of the vinyl version then I'm sure he'd be a fan for life. Stargazer and Light In The Black (or Stargazer - The Continuation) are two of the greatest rock songs ever written. As a wag once said, "There are two types of people in the world. Those that say Stargazer is the greatest rock song ever written, and those that are wrong."
Have been requesting Stargazer for months! DIO was the rock vocal GOAT!
@@ArtieFufkinPolymerRecordsFACTS!
YYEEESSSS Deep Purple...... and this song is great !!!!!
No computers No auto tune !!!!!
Live Knebworth SMOKE ON THE WATER. I died in the huge crowd.
Love Peace n HUGE Respect xxx
Every member a true legend. Jon Lord on keyboards, Ian Gillan singing, Ian Paice drumming, Roger Glover on bass, and the incomparable Ritchie Blackmore on guitar. You should check out Rainbow (also with Blackmore on guitar) and their song 'Stargazer'.
100% Check out Rainbow Stargazer! DIO is a vocal legend! ( RIP RJD)
As most people will say in these comments, an amazing performance by ALL band members, vocals, guitar, drums, bass and keyboard and LIVE !!
You can thank the audience for such a fine recording.
They asked the audience to remain quiet as they would be recording.
Ian Gillan had a 5 octave range.
Smoke on the Water
Lazy Highway Star
