You're talking Real Bullshit!!!!!! Since the reunion of Mark 2 in 1984 Blackmore played this solo......created by himself...... so lousy and awful ......as Steve joined the band he brought Back the old spirit and he is the guy.......the one and only guy who played the Solos of the old tunes how they must be played!!!!!! But one the other hand i have to say that this young cat is doing a great job..........good substitute of Morse
He's truly a better fit for the MKII material than Morse is/was. I have been saying that since discovering the "Don Airey Band" albums from Russia/Eastern Europe that he played on with Gillian a few years ago. This is bittersweet though, as the Morse material should be played by Morse. A tough situation. I am enjoying Simon's playing *immensely* though!
@@ricardomenezes1223 Discrepo : Ritchie es UNICO, como lo fue Lord, como es Paice, como es Glover, como es Gillan ... McBride toca bien, pero NO TIENE el sonido del gran Ritchie Blackmore 🤷👋👋🇦🇷
Well,what I believe as as an all time ardent fan of DP,each guitarist is unique in their own way and have thier own signature touch and trademark as the of Lord of all strings.Ritchie pioneered ,Tommy Bolin with funky blues,Randy California,Christopher Cross,Joe Satiriani,Steve Morse blend it all and now Simon Macbride sum it up in this new age by adding his share to color Purple family shine even brighter through era.Overall I love them all and no one is single out .As their still part of Purple family & friends.Yeah! Rock on DP!!!! Two thumbs up!❤️👍👍👍
Yes pretty amazing!And i think they play in standard tuning which no bands from the 60,s-70,s does anymore because the singer can’t sing that high.Like Whitesnake tunes a hole step down and Coverdale can’t even reach those high notes with a super low tuning like that.
@@peteyoung7665 The only thing Gillan can't do anymore is his trademark screaming, that's why they dropped songs like Child in Time from the set. But although his voice changed over the years he can still sing his old Deep Purple songs in their original tuning.
As Steve breathed new life into Deep Purple beginning in 1994, I see Simon doing the same thing in 2022. He fits well. It'll be interesting to see his style blend with Deep Purples style should he stay on with the band.
Deep Purple probably still has a few good years to go and being Deep Purple's guitarplayer will also give his solo career a great boost. If i was him i would go for it.
Saw Deep Purple last night at the O2 in London - they were absolutely awesome, Simon McBridge is a worthy successor to Steve Morse and the whole band were on fire!! Amazing
Simon is such a natural fit for the MKII material. I really feel bad for Steve though, as his songwriting, and the material he recorded with them is fantastic. I am interested to see if they do another album tho!
Agreed. The music is great and hats off to the new guitarist, but Ian's voice is shot sadly, and has been for sometime. Kudos to him for keeping going though, that's a major effort for a 70 something year old!!
Absolutely great guitar solo. Simon did it more clear and better than all others. My congrats to DP! They got exellent musician for Deep Purple. And Steve got his new exellent home. :-)
You may give up on life and live in an armchair in your 70s watching old films wishing you were young again but these people dont wont to and i dont wish them to while theyre doing there set they are feeling young and making thousands happy (lucky b*stards)
@@paulgoodwin3642 They're destroying a great legacy and should have packed up 20+ years ago. I know as I've followed them for years and have great affection for the band but when your only doing it for cash it's time to stop.
i like this guy better then Morse to be honest , but they have to pay copyright fee to mr Blackmore each time any guitar-player plays exact solo of him :)
Kattelin sivusta sun kuvausta ja ihmettelin, että eikö nää videot ehdi ladata TH-camen sitten keikan jälkeenkin. Hassua nähdä eturivissä tyyppi vaan pelaamas puhelimen kans monta minuuttia. Plussaa siitä, että huidoit keikan alussa sen hujopin pois edestä seisomasta. Se kaveri näytti siltä, että se ei edes tiennyt mitä oli tullut kuuntelemaan.
@@MetalliOnFinland voi olla. Tarkoitan nyt sitä halvempien lippujen eturiviä. No olisit varmaan tunnistanut itsesi joka tapauksessa. Mukavaa illanjatkoa!
Maybe but theyre still enjoying it, the crowd are enjoying it its like saying you should stop making lovento your wife because you got old and things are a but awkward (well its still fun) . Live is not about perfection its about having fun.
@@paulgoodwin3642 Remember also that we pay far more for tickets - relatively speaking - than we did when the band were in their prime. Also, the old way of touring mentioned by Gillan, in that the band would come to see the fans on one tour, and on the next tour the fans would come to see the band has now stopped. I'm referring to the type of venue played, where at one time you could lean on the stage in the smaller venues. It is the law of diminishing returns all round, I'm afraid.
I agree with you. It seems to me that it was more honest to call this band by some other name, but not Deep Purple. For me, Deep Purple on stage is the interaction of Blackmore, Lord and Paice with real improvisation, and not a good performance of a learned lesson. Although the rhythm section is beyond praise. It seems impossible to play like that at their age. But they do. The guitarist is a good technician, diligently copies Blackmore, there is a drive, there is no soul. The keyboard player is the same. I don't even want to talk about vocals. Total. Great cover band jof Deep Purple.
@@werbeboard IIn my opinion, Deep Purple and with Morse is not a real Deep Purple. They've made some good albums, but it's not Deep Purple, and it's not Ian Gillan's band. Why did they continue to be called Deep Purple? Money, just money. When the Lord got tired of this money-raising machine, he left.
this response from O and the three replies below it are ridiculous . these are still 3 of the awesome members of the best deep purple line up from the early 70's plus an amazing keyboard and guitarist they are keeping good music alive not like some of the meaningless no talent electronic shit stuff of today
McBride played the shit out of that solo..... Well Done!!!
This is the greatest band in the history of rock, .... DEEP PURPLE.
@@jarleskjelbred BEATLES. Period
Fueron los creadores del Heavy Metal ( Metal Pesado ) 👍👍👍😎🇦🇷
Simon is 100% energy, he plays the song hard and edgy, with anger, just like Ritchie. This is so good. The Hard Rock Deep Purple is back. Thanks
Yep, excellent replacement!
Totally agree!
It's solo is exact copy from original sound track, thats why sounds like Richie, not to interesting to listen to.
So don't@@nikolamilenkovic-cd5cs

Briliant for first time in more than 20yrs.. Simon you brought tears to my eyes... Only RB has ever done that me.
Purple is now back!
Yes, Simon is a great find in a very difficult situation.
@@MetalliOnFinland Not particularly great found, as he played with Airey for many years.
@@janisliekne2688 C'est pas une raison, Steeve est bien meilleur!!

I like how Simon is playing the main riff on highway star, it sounds more powerful and dynamic.

New guitarist Blackmore styled, new Blood and old SOUND!! 💜
Yes - not an easy situation to jump in, but he was great. Respect.
I agree. Simon McBride sound more like Ritchie Blackmore on guitar than Steve Morse did.
@@sumonjamal1653 At least Simon does NOT sound dull unlike Morse.
@@herrmandarin4717 Totally agree.
@@sumonjamal1653 Thats because Richie is Richie, Steve is Steve and Simon should be Simon but not Richie

Yeah! Indeed.Exploding out into the cosmos and it's rock the earth again.👍
Same flavour as decades ago.. bravo 👏
Bravo 🙌
Simon the new Ritchie 🎸🎸🎸
Hail to new DP!! 👏🤘👍
And big hand to Ian Gillan!! 👏👍
Gillan still has it!
Simon is such a natural fit for the MKII material. I really feel bad for Steve though, as his songwriting, and the material he recorded with them is fantastic. I am interested to see if they do another album tho!
Great mix, great performance given their age.
Simon McBride destroys!!! Deep Purple rules!
He was great!
Great job!
I miss Jon Lord so much.
Same. But his music still lives on..
Awesome
Damn, DP is ALIVE again!
Simon McBride does a very good job here. And I know his guitar playing from touring with Don Airey a few years ago.
,,,,, yes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone else who thinks that Simon McBride fits better with purple than Steve? Well, i am one of them...
Simon 100% fit...
Yeah, they should keep him.
Musically right on , Ian doing great for his age - don't complain people - in a few years we will loose many great 70's bands .
its gonna be a pretty abrupt wall
I not sure what some are hearing here but his voice is gone!
Agreed. The music is great and hats off to the new guitarist, but Ian's voice is shot sadly, and has been for sometime. Kudos to him for keeping going though, that's a major effort for a 70 something year old!!
All Ritchie Blackmore songs!!
Foder !!!
Ke tremendos os D. P. !!!
IAN PAICE RULES!!!!!!!!
👍👍👍
Absolutely great guitar solo. Simon did it more clear and better than all others. My congrats to DP! They got exellent musician for Deep Purple. And Steve got his new exellent home. :-)
Hes great .. lets get him a strat please!!!!!
😀
thank you baby
Lol, why wasn't this guy chosen as Ritchie's replacement in 1994, or he wasn't born yet? :D
What a band in the day.
Please give it up now

1968-heard their first hit, HUSH, when visiting London that summer. However, it is indeed to retire that being 54 years ago.

Katoppa, seisoin juuri kameramiehen takana
Toivottavasti en blokannut näkymääsi.. 😳
Who is the guitarist?
Simon McBride 🇮🇪
Played Machine Head album till it fell apart
Shit - hope You got a new one, since no one cannot live without that album..
@@MetalliOnFinland oh yeah! Definitely in my top 5 albums
Not working for me...
Then there must be something terrible wrong with You.. 😉

Go see them live - You might change your opinion 😉
Nah, they are keeping the music alive. Rock on.

Simon McBride
Simone McBride.... Steve's wife is ill... :(
Some bands should know when to give up.
I agree - but DP is not one of those bands..
Как замечательно звучат снова Deep Purple без Morse при всем уважении к Морсу он не для британской группы.....этот парень должен остаться в группе!!!!
Солист местами не тянет.
I saw DP in 87. Gillan can no longer sing.
Well, at the age of 76 the voice cannot be the same, but I recommend to go and see them live - these youtube videos cannot quite capture the truth..
@@MetalliOnFinland Maybe if Blackmore and John Lord were still with the band. This is almost a cover band.
Ian should avoid singing these numbers, he has lost his voice! I feel sorry for him, it's painful, he sounds dreadful!
No he has not.
He does struggle with his higher range, but mid-range is still pretty good.

You not fan that's disrespectful to DP, Steve is great person and musician.

White is Steve
Tending to his sick wife... This is Simon McBride.
Steve has officially quit the band.
