Singer is David Coverdale Glen Hughes sings on it as well when purple broke up Coverdale formed whitesnake which is some of the best rock blues you will ever hear. Nice reaction BTW Very nice
David Coverdale on searing lead vocals, Glenn Hughes on backing vocals & thumping bass, Ritchie Blackmore on god given guitar, the mighty Jon Lord on keyboards & Ian Paice on drums. This is Deep Purple Mark III on the Burn tour in 1974 which I saw. They were fantastic!!!!!
Now we're talkin.... Love Coverdale... the whole band is just legendary... One of the best bassists/vocalists ever and still playing today at 70 (Glenn Hughes) Thanks Nick !!
This is why we who were growing up through the 70's; believe it was the best time!!!😃 The music reflected the whole feeling and vibe of the times and rock bands were really expressing that😃🤗⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐thanks for your great reactions🌏🪐🍀🌕🙏🦋🌺🇦🇺👄👣🦉🏡🌴❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for playing this song. And I think you loved it ? It's been a long time. But I think this is from the Burn album ? I had several albums, but time, and moving desimate the record collection. And age reduce the memories, too. :(
Mark III Deep Purple is a testament to how Jon Lord, Paice, and Blackmore were able to change Deep Purple's Sound to fit Coverdale' s Bluesy Voice. I have to mention Glenn Hughes was a excellent vocalist and Bass Player. Not to many Bands that were a huge as Deep Purple was with the Mark II lineup couldn't change and still be a huge success by changing singers, especially as big a Star Ian Gillian was. Deep Purple in 73 was the biggest selling band in America and The United States wasn't really really their Market. But the rest of the World got it. Purple ruled Asia, Eastern Europe. They were bigger than the Beatles in Japan.
The singer is David Coverdale. He replaced Ian Gillan. I personally prefer Gillan but deep purple had some of the best singers ever. The guitarist is Richie Blackmore, one of the best ever. Blackmore live is incredible.
Lead Singer is David Coverdale, but the very high powerful voice close to the end was Glen Hughes singing in harmony with David. If you react to "Burn", a song from the same '74 California Jam (this video) you'll see Glen playing the Bass with platform shoes and belting out with his super powerful voice. There are some quotes on the web where they say "Glen can play bass, but he's not allowed to sing" meaning he "shows up" a lot of the lead singers and he's supposed to be the backup.
Loved your reaction. You really felt it. Yes definitely a lot of soul in his voice. Some day, for yourself look up Starkers in Tokyo where he did an accoustix set 23 years later. Some voice.
David Coverdale's idols were Sam Cook , Wilson Pickett , Howlin Wolf, Otis redding, Aretha franklin ... Same with Glenn Hughes, within Stevie Wonder etc...
BIEMBENIDO A LA GRAN FAMILIA DE LA MEJOR BANDA DE HARD ROCK DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS, INEXPLICABLE SU BAJA POPULARIDAD EN USA..., COSAS DEL MERCHANDISING. SALUDOS
Love me some Deep Purple! 'Child In Time' from the 'In Rock' album is a must. There is a great live video available. David Coverdale (the singer here) is great, but Ian Gillian in his prime is a total beast !!
There were two singers in this Mach III version of Deep Purple. The lead singer--David Coverdale--was the baritone while the bassist--Glenn Hughes--sang tenor. Glenn is the one you hear doing the really high falsetto. The two of them together made a very impressive vocal combo. David Coverdale would later go on to form the band Whitesnake. Regarding Deep Purple in general, it is the Mach II lineup with Ian Gillan on lead vocals that is the most famous. Smoke On The Water, Hush, Child In Time, Woman From Tokyo and Knocking At Your Backdoor are some of their better known tracks.
Smoke on the Water, possibly the most famous guitarist of all time. It's one of the first riffs a beginning guitar player learns. But then many of their riffs have been used in music since. So.... Popular as far as I'm concerned they've been on my playlist since the very beginning. The thing is it wasn't just a handful of good bands, it was hundreds. If you consider all genres and mixes thereof.
Beginning with Rod Evens, Ian Gillian and then David Coverdale; three of the best vocalists of all time - This band didn't just invent metal; they innovated rock with orchestra and birthed the anthem. Rod Evens cover of Ike & Tina's 'River deep, Mountain high' is still my favourite version of the song. If you can get a hold of the album "Book of Taleisyn", their earliest album; give it a listen. Glad you got so into it, I was the same at 5yo 👍
Deep Purple is such a great rabbit hole (Deep Purple, to Rainbow, to Black Sabbath, to Whitesnake...it's deep). Love this song, you should also check out Ronnie James Dio sing this song with Rainbow. (1977 Munich concert). Excellent vocal performance.
Am surprised you had not been introduced to DP yet. In my opinion they are up there and have been around as long as Cream, Zeppelin, the Who, etc......But they have kinda been like the black sheep of this family. Other songs I would recommend by them are.... Lazy, Space Truckin, Highway Star, Child in Time, Woman From Tokyo, No, No, No,...... all the studio versions. They had a different singer then who is also amazing. A guy named Ian Gillan who has done some amazing things with his voice that no one else does quite like him. I promise you won't be disappointed. Enjoy. Kurt from Maine
The Godfathers of Hard Rock. Hear their iconic Album „Deep purple in Rock“: Speed King or Child in Time or Into the fire or…, better hear the whole album. From 1971 with another Singer: Ian Gillan. They are touring yet, í ´ve seen them yesteday in Bonn, Germany
Can’t believe this is your first experience with Purple ! This is MK3 Deep Purple, (check out MK2 with Ian Gillan - Child in Time is a Good place to start). Note in this clip from California Jam in ‘74 that Glenn Hughes on bass shared a lot of vocal duties on songs from this line up - most notably ‘Burn’ - check out this as it was also recorded at Cal Jam. That is Glenn doing the high vocal harmony at the end, not Coverdale ! I mentioned once before when you reviewed Jimmy Barnes and Lachy Doley that there is a connection as both have played with Glenn Hughes !
There's also a great live version of it from Ian Gillian's solo career, where he played it together with the legendary blind canadian blues guitarrist (and jazz trumpetist) Jeff Healey.
This is one of the few hard rock groups I enjoyed in the 60's-70's. My favorites are their covers of Joe South's "Hush" & Neil Diamond's "Kentucky Woman". Also like "Smoke On The Water", "Child In Time", "Woman From Tokyo", "Highway Star", "Fireball", Speed King", "Space Truckin'", etc.
Deep Purple were English contemporaries of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. Although the singer, David Coverdale has a great bluesy voice, you really need to hear the previous lineup (referred to as Deep Purple mark II) with Ian Gillan. They were extraordinarily talented musicians (Listen to "Smoke on the Water", "Black Night" & "Lazy" and when you're ready "Fireball", "Bloodsucker" and "Child In Time". Apart from some incredibly good songs, Deep Purple's influence on heavy rock music was enormous: Ritchie Blackmore (guitarist) left to form Rainbow, and as well as being very successful, this introduced Ronnie James Dio to the world; David Coverdale (singer) subsequently had enormous success with his band Whitesnake; Dio had some success with his own band, but also did a great album (Heaven & Hell) with Black Sabbath.
Deep Purple, with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin is where Heavy Rock and Metal all started back in 1969/1970, they were also known as the 'Loudest Band in the World' at that time.
Seen them in concert in the 70's, they were one of the greats and there is plenty more material to hear. Check out the Machine Head album, that really caused the ban to take off and reach GOAT status.
Their most Iconic song is "Smoke On The Water" I dare you not to Rock Out whenever you hear it. They never expected it to be a hit, Deep Purple thought their Manager was crazy when He said it was going to be a hit. And all because someone stupid played with a Flake Gun and accidentally burnt 🔥 down a Casino. In Montreux, Switzerland where Deep Purple, The Rolling Stones and Frank Zappa had gone to record. It's a story telling song and they still can't believe it when people ask them what it's about. All you need to do is pay attention to the lyrics. In 96 and 06 Deep Purple played it in Montreux of course it's loved there.
This was the new lineups first performance together. David Coverdale was completely new to the band, having replaced the mighty Ian Gillan. He did ok, didn't he? :) The mark 2 and mark 3 lineups are considered peak Deep Purple. Most fans prefer mark 2, with Ian Gillan (vocals) and Roger Glover (bass), ove mark 3, with David Coverdale (vocals) and Glenn Hughes (bass/vocals) but both lineups were pretty incredible! Mark 2 was more successful and produced most of their major hits but mark 3 was hugely successful too and produced some amazing tracks. In case you're wondering, Ritchie Blackmore (guitar), Jon Lord (organ/keyboards) and Ian Paice (drums/percussion) were in both lineups. When Deep Purple broke up, members from these two lineups formed the basis for two more hugely successful bands, Rainbow and Whitesnake. In fact, there's a whole 'family tree' of bands, branching off from Deep Purple! :)
I heard you mentioned your Top 5 male vocalists of all time. You put in names like Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham and Swanee. Nothing wrong with these vocalists they are awesome but you oughta go out a lot more........This guy doing Mistreated is David Coverdale....he left Deep Purple and formed his own band called Whitesnake (check out "Still of the Night" or the poppy rock global hit "Here I Go Again". David also did a fantastic song which incorporates elements of classical music in the guitar and keyboard solo on Deep Purple's "Burn" (a song about a witch). Another great rock vocalist which would sneak into your Top 5 is Ronnie James Dio (who had his own rock band called Dio)......he did a version of "Mistreated" as well with Ritchie Blackmore's (the guitarist in this video) band called Rainbow.....mind blowing. Dio was also briefly with the band Black Sabbath replacing Ozzy Osbourne. The original singer of Deep Purple (and still is today) is Ian Gillan.....check out "Highway Star" (also has elements of classical music in the solos) or you probably have heard of the famous guitar riff of "Smoke on the Water". I ain't giving you money LOL check 'em out out of love of music and a sense of curiosity.
Don't forget mate that while Ian Gillan is undoubtedly Purple's greatest vocalist he wasn't their first. That honour goes to Rod Evans who sang on the albums Shades of Deep Purple, The Book of Taliesyn & Deep Purple.
Rod Evans was the Original Singer of Deep Purple. He sang on the first 3 albums with Mark l Deep Purple. The Original Bass Player was Nick Simper. Evans went to sing for Captain Beyond if I remember correctly.
@@philjones45 I like the Original better than the Rainbow Version but it also is fantastic. I can't get Coverdale at the California Jam out of my head. Purple came out blew me away at 13 years old. So on Mistreated I give a slight edge to Coverdale. He portrayed the pain in his soul.
Deep Purple are in the Unholy Trinity with Led Zep and Black Sabbath. They are absolute beasts of musicians and great vocalists. Prefer Ian Gillan but David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes also great. More Purple with Gillan please!!! Lazy live or Highway Star or live Child in Time are epic 🤘
So glad you checked this one out from that concert! I've been waiting for more reactions to this performance. There is a lot to explore from this band from every lineup. For this particular lineup of the band check out Stormbringer (Album version) or Burn (from this same concert). Glenn Hughes is the bass player and has the higher register of vocal in the band and it blends well with the main vocalist David Coverdale. Ian Gillan who is the part of their most famous lineup has monster performances as well. Check out Strange Kind of Woman (Made in Japan 1972)
Great reaction. I recommend you listen to their musical prowess in "Lazy" from their MACHINE HEAD album. Of course, everyone knows "Smoke on the Water" off of that album, but also check out "Highway Star". Great stuff.
Juste un chef-d'œuvre, et je fais bien la différence entre Gillan et Coverdale mais je suis fan ++ de deep purple, pour moi, deep purple n'est pas un titre mais une œuvre complète... Je suis fan depuis l'âge de 11 ans et j'ai depuis quelques mois 60 ans...
I actually prefer Whitesnake's version, (same singer, keyboardist and drummer) on their, 'Live... In the Heart of the City' live double album. An incredible album btw! Especially if you like heavy blues rock. :)
the high notes near end are Glenn Hughes the bass player. now known as the voice of rock. the singer David Coverdale. both brilliant but took two to replace main singer Ian Gillan. check out Child in Time.
Nick, if you’ve done Lazy by Joe Bonamassa & Jimmy Barnes - they are covering a Deep Purple song “Lazy”. When I was a young pre teen and then teen (say 1970-76 ish) Deep Purple were monster big. Them with Zeppelin & Sabbath were absolutely huge heavy rock bands all around the place.
Fantastic reaction man - check out 'Child in Time' from the album Deep Purple in Rock - then watch a live version that is out on UA-cam. I can send you the link if you need it.
Ian is amazing!!! Saw DEEP PURPLE twice and ORIGINAL Jesus Christ Super Star in 69, but you need to check out MELODY CRISTEA OF LILIAC DO THIS SONG!!!! THIS LADY IS UNBELIEVABLE!!! TREAT YOURSELF TO LILIAC FAMILY GROUP OF 2 SISTERS AND 3 BROTHERS ORIGINALS AND COVER SONGS!!!!
As a side note, I do believe the high falsetto screams are Hughes (the bass player), and not Coverdale (the singer). I think they sing that part together, but I'm not 100%. Hughes was also an incredible singer. In fact, when their first singer Ian Gillian left the band, they were considering just having Hughes sing. But then they stumbled across David Coverdale on an open mic night in Britain. Coverdale was the only one in the band who had not been a professional musician prior to playing in Deep Purple. In fact, this concert was the first time he visited the US. The rest of this concert is very much worth watching, as well. Black Sabbath opened for Deep Purple, who opened for Emmerson, Lake and Palmer. All three bands had legendary gigs. This was California Jam '74; there's plenty (if not all) of it available here on YT.
Gracias por tu reacción!! Deep Purple es y será la mejor banda de la llamada "Trinidad Impía" ( Purple, Zeppelin y Black Sabbath); considerados los padres del Metal. Deep Purple siempre será más reconocido con Ian Gillan como vocalista. 💜💜💜💜💜
YES- Deep Purple was by the most talented lineup. Check out 'Child In Time', Fireball, anything from "Machine Head, I prefer Pictures of Home. They have platinum records in 7 decades!
Deep Purpole had a band named 'Elf' who opened fir them on several world tours, the singer of Elf was Ronnie James Dio. Ritchie Blackmore, Deep Purples guitarist, left DP and formed the band Rainbow with Dio at vocals. Check our this song, which Ritchie brought with him, performed by Rainbow, check out the video 'Rainbow: 'Mistreated' Live in Munich 1977'. YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY! Dio was the GOAT vocally, stage presence and writing ability. Blows away this performance.
Deep Purple Mark 3 with the amazing David Coverdale handling lead vocals supported by bassist Glenn Hughes with the supporting high end vocals, check out "Burn" & "Stormbringer" live ua-cam.com/video/t4fDCwDiWJQ/v-deo.html , ua-cam.com/video/oeHfg9BQ_ss/v-deo.html . Also check out DP Mark 2 with Highway star and Child in time with long time lead vocalist Ian Gillan, mind blowing, welcome to the amazing world of Purple, Cheers
what a crazy time to be around for music
Singer is David Coverdale Glen Hughes sings on it as well when purple broke up Coverdale formed whitesnake which is some of the best rock blues you will ever hear. Nice reaction BTW Very nice
David Coverdale on searing lead vocals, Glenn Hughes on backing vocals & thumping bass, Ritchie Blackmore on god given guitar, the mighty Jon Lord on keyboards & Ian Paice on drums.
This is Deep Purple Mark III on the Burn tour in 1974 which I saw. They were fantastic!!!!!
You fool no one from this same show..
The Master of the Stratocaster!!!!!!!!!!
Ritchie Blackmores Rainbow ..... one band you will never forget
Fact!
Young Coverdale's voice seems like a lion!
Now we're talkin.... Love Coverdale... the whole band is just legendary... One of the best bassists/vocalists ever and still playing today at 70 (Glenn Hughes) Thanks Nick !!
This is why we who were growing up through the 70's; believe it was the best time!!!😃 The music reflected the whole feeling and vibe of the times and rock bands were really expressing that😃🤗⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐thanks for your great reactions🌏🪐🍀🌕🙏🦋🌺🇦🇺👄👣🦉🏡🌴❤️❤️❤️
Just the variety of bands and music was incredible. 70 years of my teens.
Deep Purple Child In Time
Game over right there!!!
Thank you for playing this song. And I think you loved it ?
It's been a long time. But I think this is from the Burn album ?
I had several albums, but time, and moving desimate the record collection.
And age reduce the memories, too. :(

Yeah!! FEEL THAT MUSIC! Great reaction ,bro! To say that Deep Purple is Epic, is like saying- I would like to continue to breathe. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic reaction. Thank you so much Sir.
Gives me the chills. Epitome of bluesy rock
Learnt how to play “smoke on the water” on the Hammond organ. They were my fav rock band in the day ( plus loads of others !!)
Great reaction to an amazing show, and so I thank you. The line-up changes, but the inventiveness and talent rarely fails!
Best reaction ever
Saw them in Dallas in the 80’s and again in San Antonio around 2006 ish. Legendary Band.✌️
The singer is David Coverdale. He replaced Ian Gillan. I personally prefer Gillan but deep purple had some of the best singers ever.
The guitarist is Richie Blackmore, one of the best ever. Blackmore live is incredible.
I think Gillan just might kill Nick Tom ... then we move to Ronnie James Dio and Rainbow....down the rabbit hole we goooooo !!
@@JoSedunary mmmmm. Stargazer
Big fan of joe Lynn turner at the helm as well.
@@fugawiaus Same - can't really go wrong with any version to be honest.... we were spoilt for choice back then...so many great bands
The high notes was just Glenn Hughes (Bassist/vocalist).
Blackmore + Coverdale = best combo
Really love Deep Purple - used to play “Sweet Child in Time” as the outro track on my student radio show back then.
Is that a longer version of the song actually known as just 'Child in Time' 😉😊🤣 ?
Love Deep Purple..... smoke on the water was one of there best ever !
Check out "Child in Time" and listen to Ian Gillian. His vocal range was between 4.5 - 5 octaves. You will enjoy the performance.
ua-cam.com/video/OorZcOzNcgE/v-deo.html
Absolutely- for me Sweet Child in Time is their greatest track. Though the whole Deep Purple in Rock album is pretty damn good 👍🏻
For a period in time, they were the biggest band on the planet.
I would add... forever... I never listen again better performance than Deep Purple did in those years
Nice reaction - whatever you do listen to Deep Purple 'Child in Time' - studio version first, then the live version - it will blow your socks off.
Lead Singer is David Coverdale, but the very high powerful voice close to the end was Glen Hughes singing in harmony with David. If you react to "Burn", a song from the same '74 California Jam (this video) you'll see Glen playing the Bass with platform shoes and belting out with his super powerful voice. There are some quotes on the web where they say "Glen can play bass, but he's not allowed to sing" meaning he "shows up" a lot of the lead singers and he's supposed to be the backup.
Yes.. You're right....
Glenn tended to overdo it. Quite annoying
Loved your reaction. You really felt it. Yes definitely a lot of soul in his voice. Some day, for yourself look up Starkers in Tokyo where he did an accoustix set 23 years later. Some voice.
David Coverdale's idols were Sam Cook , Wilson Pickett , Howlin Wolf, Otis redding, Aretha franklin ...
Same with Glenn Hughes, within Stevie Wonder etc...

Deep Purple is such a great rabbit hole (Deep Purple, to Rainbow, to Black Sabbath, to Whitesnake...it's deep). Love this song, you should also check out Ronnie James Dio sing this song with Rainbow. (1977 Munich concert). Excellent vocal performance.
My favorite Deep Purple song ❤🫠💜🔥

You gotta do Smoke on the Water now, its an all time classic... and that song is also a story...
Can’t believe this is your first experience with Purple ! This is MK3 Deep Purple, (check out MK2 with Ian Gillan - Child in Time is a Good place to start).

Child In time - Deep Purple. Studio version, live one is ok from '71 but the studio solo kills it.
That song is going straight onto my playlist. I’m all over it. Thank you Nick. 👍
That performance is on Spotify too.
You should check out the song "When a blind man cries" studio version. The sad blues sound is soooo good. Vocally Ian Gillan kills it too.
There's also a great live version of it from Ian Gillian's solo career, where he played it together with the legendary blind canadian blues guitarrist (and jazz trumpetist) Jeff Healey.
This is one of the few hard rock groups I enjoyed in the 60's-70's. My favorites are their covers of Joe South's "Hush" & Neil Diamond's "Kentucky Woman". Also like "Smoke On The Water", "Child In Time", "Woman From Tokyo", "Highway Star", "Fireball", Speed King", "Space Truckin'", etc.
That‘s David Coverdale‘ s Voice ( whitesnake)
I agree with John you need to do smoke on the water, one of the greatest all time bands
Great first listen to a great band!
One of the trinity; Zeppelin, sabbath and deep purple
Deep Purple were English contemporaries of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath. Although the singer, David Coverdale has a great bluesy voice, you really need to hear the previous lineup (referred to as Deep Purple mark II) with Ian Gillan. They were extraordinarily talented musicians (Listen to "Smoke on the Water", "Black Night" & "Lazy" and when you're ready "Fireball", "Bloodsucker" and "Child In Time".

You should compare this live version with that of the studio album. In this one, the keyboards are fantastic!
Jimmy Barnes cites Deep Purple as one of the biggest musical influences on him.
Deep Purple, with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin is where Heavy Rock and Metal all started back in 1969/1970, they were also known as the 'Loudest Band in the World' at that time.
Seen them in concert in the 70's, they were one of the greats and there is plenty more material to hear. Check out the Machine Head album, that really caused the ban to take off and reach GOAT status.
Their most Iconic song is "Smoke On The Water" I dare you not to Rock Out whenever you hear it. They never expected it to be a hit, Deep Purple thought their Manager was crazy when He said it was going to be a hit. And all because someone stupid played with a Flake Gun and accidentally burnt 🔥 down a Casino. In Montreux, Switzerland where Deep Purple, The Rolling Stones and Frank Zappa had gone to record. It's a story telling song and they still can't believe it when people ask them what it's about. All you need to do is pay attention to the lyrics. In 96 and 06 Deep Purple played it in Montreux of course it's loved there.
Go into any shop where they sell guitars and you’ll be able to hear an amateur version of their other song “Smoke on the water”.

No, Coverdale was.

Deep Purple - Child In Time, Preferably the studio version.
Deep Purple are in the Unholy Trinity with Led Zep and Black Sabbath. They are absolute beasts of musicians and great vocalists. Prefer Ian Gillan but David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes also great. More Purple with Gillan please!!! Lazy live or Highway Star or live Child in Time are epic 🤘
So glad you checked this one out from that concert! I've been waiting for more reactions to this performance. There is a lot to explore from this band from every lineup. For this particular lineup of the band check out Stormbringer (Album version) or Burn (from this same concert).

Ian Gillan who is the part of their most famous lineup has monster performances as well. Check out Strange Kind of Woman (Made in Japan 1972)
You Fool No One, Lazy, BRN and Machine Head. Go for it
Yeah
11:49 The high singing is Glenn Hughes, the bass player, he have insane voice
Just melody.....
Great reaction. I recommend you listen to their musical prowess in "Lazy" from their MACHINE HEAD album. Of course, everyone knows "Smoke on the Water" off of that album, but also check out "Highway Star". Great stuff.
Juste un chef-d'œuvre, et je fais bien la différence entre Gillan et Coverdale mais je suis fan ++ de deep purple, pour moi, deep purple n'est pas un titre mais une œuvre complète... Je suis fan depuis l'âge de 11 ans et j'ai depuis quelques mois 60 ans...
I actually prefer Whitesnake's version, (same singer, keyboardist and drummer) on their, 'Live... In the Heart of the City' live double album. An incredible album btw! Especially if you like heavy blues rock. :)
the high notes near end are Glenn Hughes the bass player. now known as the voice of rock. the singer David Coverdale. both brilliant but took two to replace main singer Ian Gillan. check out Child in Time.
You need to hear Child In Time .
They were so awesome. Their live album Made in Europe is a MUST listen.
You should hear the Rainbow version of this with Dio singing. It's incredible.
Nick, if you’ve done Lazy by Joe Bonamassa & Jimmy Barnes - they are covering a Deep Purple song “Lazy”.
When I was a young pre teen and then teen (say 1970-76 ish) Deep Purple were monster big. Them with Zeppelin & Sabbath were absolutely huge heavy rock bands all around the place.
You have to check out
whitesnake sailing ships
And deep purple soldier of fortune
You won't be disappointed I give you my word
The best music doesn't give or need a warning
You should listen to David in Whitesnake “Live in the heart of the City”
Fantastic reaction man - check out 'Child in Time' from the album Deep Purple in Rock - then watch a live version that is out on UA-cam. I can send you the link if you need it.
Ian is amazing!!! Saw DEEP PURPLE twice and ORIGINAL Jesus Christ Super Star in 69, but you need to check out MELODY CRISTEA OF LILIAC DO THIS SONG!!!! THIS LADY IS UNBELIEVABLE!!! TREAT YOURSELF TO LILIAC FAMILY GROUP OF 2 SISTERS AND 3 BROTHERS ORIGINALS AND COVER SONGS!!!!
David Coverdale is the Leadformer of Whitesnake later
He’s a 19/20 year old here. You definitely know his monster hit with Whitesnake Here I Go Again!!
Look „Child in Time“
If you liked this DEEP PURPLE song , just wait until you hear CHILD IN TIME !!!
Do Deep Purples Rat Bat Blue from the album "Who do we think we are"!!
My late teen years. The glory of a misspent youth.
This is - in my opinion - closer to the the roots of heavy metal than most things you hear. It's more akin to really heavy blues than rock.
As a side note, I do believe the high falsetto screams are Hughes (the bass player), and not Coverdale (the singer). I think they sing that part together, but I'm not 100%.
Hughes was also an incredible singer. In fact, when their first singer Ian Gillian left the band, they were considering just having Hughes sing. But then they stumbled across David Coverdale on an open mic night in Britain.
Coverdale was the only one in the band who had not been a professional musician prior to playing in Deep Purple. In fact, this concert was the first time he visited the US.
The rest of this concert is very much worth watching, as well. Black Sabbath opened for Deep Purple, who opened for Emmerson, Lake and Palmer. All three bands had legendary gigs. This was California Jam '74; there's plenty (if not all) of it available here on YT.
Gracias por tu reacción!! Deep Purple es y será la mejor banda de la llamada "Trinidad Impía" ( Purple, Zeppelin y Black Sabbath); considerados los padres del Metal.
Deep Purple siempre será más reconocido con Ian Gillan como vocalista. 💜💜💜💜💜
Great song would also suggest you see their song 'Burn' from the same concert.
Telling my age but Smoked my first joint to SMOKE ON THE WATER 1972...LOL
One of my favorite Deep Purple lineups. FYI: the high vocal you hear is the bass player Glen Hughes.
I’m about to piss on myself, classic!
YES- Deep Purple was by the most talented lineup. Check out 'Child In Time', Fireball, anything from "Machine Head, I prefer Pictures of Home. They have platinum records in 7 decades!
Geniosss§
Bassist, Glenn Hughes, was doing the high vocals near the end.
listen up Mistreated with Rainbow ( Ronnie James Dio vocals) classic.
Whitesnake - Still of the Night
Same Singer, David Coverdale :)
Deep Purpole had a band named 'Elf' who opened fir them on several world tours, the singer of Elf was Ronnie James Dio. Ritchie Blackmore, Deep Purples guitarist, left DP and formed the band Rainbow with Dio at vocals. Check our this song, which Ritchie brought with him, performed by Rainbow, check out the video 'Rainbow: 'Mistreated' Live in Munich 1977'. YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY! Dio was the GOAT vocally, stage presence and writing ability. Blows away this performance.
Oh you gonna have some fun now... Try 'Child in Time', 'Burn', and 'Lazy'. Fun fact for you - Jimmy Barnes loves Deep Purple. Check his cover of Lazy
Love Dio but no one sings this song better than Coverdale!!
Dio does.
Check out Child in Time, the 1970 Live version.
Keep in mind that DC here is only 22 and never had played live to a huge audience.
Deep Purple Mark 3 with the amazing David Coverdale handling lead vocals supported by bassist Glenn Hughes with the supporting high end vocals, check out "Burn" & "Stormbringer" live ua-cam.com/video/t4fDCwDiWJQ/v-deo.html , ua-cam.com/video/oeHfg9BQ_ss/v-deo.html . Also check out DP Mark 2 with Highway star and Child in time with long time lead vocalist Ian Gillan, mind blowing, welcome to the amazing world of Purple, Cheers
The second voice is Glen Hugdes
Tenés que escuchar You fool no one de éste mismo show
Never heard of Deep Purple? Subliminally you must have heard the guitar riff from Smoke on the Water every time you walked past a guitar shop.
Hard to believe eh? One of the greatest bands of all time as far as I'm concerned.
