The story of Highway Star is that DP were on their way to play a concert. On board the coach were some music journalists and they asked DP how they came up with songs. Ian Gillan said like this, and Richie Blackmore started making up a guitar riff on the spot. Gillan started improvising some lyrics on the spot too. Ian Pace started tapping out a beat on his lap. Legend has it that the song was so complete that they played it that very night at the gig. This TH-cam cover version is excellent.
Wow!!! I've been listening to this song a thousand time since late 70's n yet this is the best cover I've ever heard...keyboard n guitar solo perfectly redefined \m/
Ive been drumming for 51 yrs. I started in 1969 and my brother had records that I would play to, Guess who, Alice Cooper, Led Zep, and a couple yrs later Deep Purple Machine Head Album, I'm still playing, I love a couple of Marshall full stacks behind me, I'm a Sweed, and I will say at 62 I still ripp a crowds ass, You guys are awesome
Oh! awesome! Deep Purple is one of my favorite groups. I happend to hear the legandary HighWay Star played by unexpected group.. But this song fascinated me like original song played by Deep Purple. I wish that this group will have glory of its time.
Who is that amazing keyboardist 😶the intro of Jon Lord's solo is fucking amazing. Changing an iconic solo is very hard but the guitarist and the keyman nailed it👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Matic Nareks,you have nothing to envy to greatest singers,especially in today's desert,when everybody forgot how to sing.Make more covers,you can become world famous.
Well done Guys! Lets go, go fast on Sage, this Music live is 100 time more effective!!! The best version of Highway Star I've never listened! Never a moment of hesitation, never out of time, all of you always and perfectly in tone !!! I'm listening to you with a big pleasantness; TO MY MIND, certainly, among the top three favorites in this Covers Sea! I'm a Opera Singer, a Bass, the extension of the male voice that, on the Piano Keyboard, is comprised starting from left, between, the 2nd D major and the G Major, before the C Central. I'm 53 and I grew up with my mom who, graduated. on Piano at the Conservatory of Milan, played Bach, Beethoven and Chopin while I was in my little room listening Made in Japan on Vinyl! Every day, all the afternoon, except The Mule...I'.ve never understood why!!! Although tomorrow I'll sing the Mozart's Don Giovanni, Mozart is my absolute Idol, from the beginning of my Life, the Magic 5 with Ritchie and John in the head, have gained a great place in my heart, in my veins flowing blood traces in a sea of Deep Purple, I have only one certainty. To my personal point of view, only to my nibs, my mind, The Deep Purple are: Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, RogerGlover, Ian Pace, John Lord. No one of them would be replaceable, much less Glover and above all Gillan, one of the best voices in the Rock History. Blackmore knew too much this but, as you guys know... the worst man's character of the Human History...ok, you know how things were going. I wanna say to you Guys, everyone of you is on Top, anyway, my eyes, guided by the ears, ran to the guitar. Fantastic technique, the solo is perfect but: THE ONLY WAY EVERYONE HAS TO PLAY Deep Purple is playng the R.B. White Fender Strato, without the Central Pick up, the only one, The original!!! All my best RitckieBlackmozart1791
Voyage of rediscovery for the younger generations..... go boys... well done.... No one can get that Gillan grit though........ and the looseness of the older bands..... but sill darn good....
And here I thought that Metal Church's cover was the best I'd heard. NOT!!!! All I can say is WOW! Incredible talent in this band! Spot on! Loved the mild embellishments on the behalf of the guitarist and keyboard player. Drums, bass and vocals were just as superb. So....this now ranks as the best cover of Highway Star that I've heard! Great job guys! I'd like to hear you guys cover some Whitesnake too, I bet it would rock!
couldnt agree more...without great drummer songs on this level sucks ;) Urban Krč-Bensy Chord is one hell of a drummer and one of the best in our country ;) Thanks for comment btw.
A very inspiring cover of this song. Even to a certain extent, surpassing the impact of the original. Something that is not always possible. Especially when it comes to a super group like Deep Purple. Admirations for the courage and the result of this performance of these guys!
Vrhunski vokal, res izjemno, nisem vedel da ima Slovenija takega pevca! Prav tako ostali, tapping na kitari, solaže na klaviaturi, vas bi kar najel za koncert!!😎👌👍💪🔥🔥🔥
One thing I notice when people cover Purple is that nobody who can hit the highs like Ian Gillan has such a powerful rich midrange like he did. I guess that kind of power and the insane range he had don’t come together very often.
the energy you guys bring is amazing - I was waiting for the 'scream' and was not disappointed. As other commenters said, the balance in the tracks is perfect and everyone is playing with the right intensity
Holy Shit Fellas!! That was just superb. I wasn't prepared for the powerful and excellent vocals. That came out whe I was in high school. Thanks for taking me back.
this is so good,,,,,, it does make you wonder why anyone listens to purple now,,,,, gillan has no voice anymore and even forgets the words, bands like this didn't exist or weren't seen 30 years ago
One of the best Highway Star cover all around the world. You are impressively amazing! Great job..
+Matteo Pelucco thanks Matteo!! We appreciate this comment.
+Matteo Pelucco I agree!!
I agree wholeheartedly.
I agree with you Matteo
not for me i miss many of Jon Lord's parts like intro at piano
Can you believe this song is over fifty years old now! Still as fresh as ever 🤘🤘
best cover ever and by Slovenian musicians, blown away
The story of Highway Star is that DP were on their way to play a concert. On board the coach were some music journalists and they asked DP how they came up with songs.

totally professional on many levels visual sound musicianship excellent guys
thank you!!
Великолепное исполнение,сам Блэкмор аплодировал бы.
Согласен ,максимально близко к DP !
One of the most iconic songs in history.......the lead is an immaculate creation and it MUST be played note for note.......NO embelishments please
Nah screw that mindset. These guys killed it and made it their own. That's the thing about rock, you don't have to follow any rules. 🤘
An excellent cover of one of my favorite Purple songs - an great balance of fidelity to the original and showcase for the talents of this band
Исполнение- огонь!!!!
Wow!!! I've been listening to this song a thousand time since late 70's n yet this is the best cover I've ever heard...keyboard n guitar solo perfectly redefined \m/
Hey Man!! Thanks!! Im Glad you like it, ..especially as a long-time deep purple fan!! Appreciated ;)) Klemen

Ultra tight cover version of Highway Star from top musicians. Congratulations! You need to tour one day with current Deep Purple as a warm-up act.
オリジナルのアレンジを含め、どのパートもめちゃくちゃカッコいい!😍
Amazing.....thanks from Basque Country. Long Live Rock´n´Roll!!

The liberties you took in re-defining your parts didn't detract from the magnificence of the original .. It enhanced it!! Not one Bad move! Thank you!
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
