I've not seen a single person that heard this for the first time get their mind blown off. True musicianship: no filters, no autotunes, just straight talent. Deep Purple is one of the best bands ever, entire line up is insanely great. Also, this was in the era of first live recordings in Studios. The audience were warned to keep quiet as any sound they'd make would affect the recording… Inside they were rocking, though.
Also, I doubt those audience members ever heard anything of this caliber or intensity before, so they might also have been frozen speechless by the raw energy of the performance. 😁 Deep Purple was by far the best live rock band at the time. They simply blew everyone else away.
FALSE! 1000%. Made In Japan which is a fine example was actually several shows recorded and over dubbed in studio to correct issues. This is and was common place. I was there for a couple of those shows. Trust me, they don't sound anything like they do in this video.
@@robertking7584 There was NO overdubbing, though there probably were levels corrections in the studio. This is well known. Overdubbing means instruments or vocals were added after the fact. This did not happen with Made In Japan. And assuming you were at the shows in Japan in 1972, what you heard as part of the audience clearly differed from what the console picked up from the amps and mics, what with your positioning relative to the PA system, venue echo and crowd noise. Is this really surprising?
The crowd were in a TV recording studio and told to stay quiet so as not to spoil the recording. It looks weird but thank god that they did as they were told or we would not be able to enjoy this masterpiece in its full glory.
Hey Maddy - love the reaction! The crowd are not jammin' because back in the day they were told to be quiet for the sake of the recording. Deep Purple have lots of cool tracks such as Highway Star, Hush, Burn, Smoke on the Water, Space Truckin', Speed King and so many more!
Great reaction Maddy! Deep Purple has lots of fantastic music. In fact, this time period (late 60s to mid 70s) had some outstanding bands and music. I feel fortunate to have experienced it as a young man.
always love looking at the crowd. not what they expected, deep purple was a game changer. crowd came to hear some slow something. top comment i have seen was about crowd 'they don't get it but their children are gonna love it!
This is one of the best videos this band ever did. You're bang on when you talk about it feeling like a jam session. Their real strength was their free-flowing live shows - famous for on the spot innovation. A Deep Purple concert was kinda like paying to sit in on an extended jam session between some of the best musicians of their day - and any day.
I love watching people’s first reactions to this iconic song. Every person on that stage is so good at what they do, and in this they all shine. Ian’s voice amazing, organ is great, Ritchie on guitar epic as usual. I love the transitions and many tempo changes this song takes you through. Great classic song from a great iconic band.
Maddy, the time traveller. In my youth, this song was among the 2 best ever. Every time I didn't score, and normally I didn't, I had this on the headphones with eyes closed ... and I came :) Eargasm. CROWD : They were not into rock yet, it wasn't trendy. The very same crowd today looks the same way at Russia "Humanity? Values? Family? Religion? ... The hell they are up to? Very dangerous, It could infect the world!"
Thank for your reaction. I think you are a very good listener because I noticed you detect all the changes and sounds from the instruments and realize when they were improvising or jamming as you say. Deep Purple is a great band of maestros, every one is a special musician and composer; Jon Lord on keyboards, is a classical symphonic composer. Ritchie Blackmore on guitar, was classically trained when he was younger. Ian Paice on drums, he practice 6 hours per day to improve his skills since he was 11 and can improvise almost anything. Roger Glover on bass, is a capable composer and player too, he is the rock, the firm line that sustain the Deep Purple ship into this jams to put things in order. Finally Ian Gillan on vocals, is a gifted and well trained singer capable to give you the highests note with incredible and smooth style, not screaming, but singing. An awesome band where everybody was always trying to show who is better than the others, and yes they were happy on stage, much more than in the studio, this a unique subject about Deep Purple, they sound better in concert than in the studio, because on stage they are free and can play whatever they want, they take complete control of their instruments, no time limits and can be very expressive. This is a band formed on the search of the best for the music. I highly recommend you to react to some other songs of Deep Purple like HIGHWAY STAR (live from the "Made In Japan" album) and BURN from the same name album. You won't regret it.
Not seen this 'Child' in time live video, thanks for reacting, Maddy. So true, that audience! It's like Deep Purple rocked up to bingo night! I saw them back in the day and I can assure you, the place rocked! I've never listened to Mars Volta (my homework), but it would not surprise me if Purple are in their DNA, they are usually cited as influencing today's rock bands.
At age 10, my brother came back from the Navy and I snuck in his car and heard Deep Purple In Rock, which had this song on that album. I heard it in his car, cassette! Deep Purple "Made In Japan," is on my top 5 Live Rock Albums of all Time.
This was recorded in a television studio, and was at a time when tv executives didn't want crowd participation. Also some of the crowd were not really rock fans. Remember this was new to us all. We didn't realise it was so good, as there was so much great music around. I think they inspired other bands, they in turn inspired others. The organ solo at the start was what inspired the song and was on an album by Beautiful Day the song was called, Bombay Calling.
I'm 67 and got to see almost all of the major top bands of the late 60's and 70's and now I watch younger people like yourself do reactions and get blown away by the talent that I got to love and enjoy in my youth.
The crowd were warned not too make any sound while doing a live recording as it would be picked up & effect the music .. Remember this was the 70’s & live recording was not near as sophisticated as today .. Inside they were rocking 😊. Need to listen to “Smoke on the Water “ has one of the most well known & famous riffs in music 🎶.. Great review as always ☘️😀👍
I got to see Deep Purple a few years ago , and yes , the only original was the drummer , Ian paice ! But , I still loved it because Deep Purple has been one of my favorites for over 40 years ! This line up was my favorite . And yes , they helped influence a lot of different bands , including Metallica . Deep Purple is so much more than just Smoke On The Water !! Just wait until you check out Strange Kind Of Woman , live in 1972 !! Incredible !! But then all of there stuff is incredible !!
Definitely. Jon Lord played 2 keyboards at once. I've always liked Ian Paice better than John Bonham. And the Man in Black, Richie Blackmore. A mysterious genius of classic rock.
Glad you like it Maddy 😉🤘 What was cool about this era and this type of music was that they left a place for each band member. Everyone had their "little moment" of soloing. Now I have to think of a new one to surprise you haha 😁
You like huh? Fantastic. That makes me happy seeing someone your age appreciate a masterpiece. I'm a 66 year old Vet and had the luxury of seeing that exact same line up. If you might consider this listen to Solitude off of Black Sabbath's Master of Realty album and maybe consider doing something along these same lines. It would be cool for me at least. Have a fantastic journey.
That opening riff on the organ (the part done with his left hand) was taken (legally) from the Band It's A Beautiful Days instrumental song "Bombay Calling". Which you might enjoy giving a listen to, along with their signature song "White Bird".
The crowd wasn’t jamming, because they were told not to make any noise because they were recording this song. The production wasn’t as sofisticated as it is now. That’s why the singer is putting his hand over his ear to keep in time with the band, they didn’t have monitors like today.
in those days (early seventies) crowds didn't let loose, especially in Germany. Very polite as you said. It's not really a jam session, the song is very very structured with allowance for improvisations.
Next up, Chicago playing their hit from 197o, 25 or 6 to 4. It's basically a sound check performance, Live at Tanglewood that turns into a fiery loose jam. You will be impressed. Enjoy
Ah, Maddy, you hit on the one thing that no one can fully explain. The crowd does seem to be quite bored. However, my guess is that they are ALL stoned... Look at their clothes and those of the band members, and you will see 60's and 70's styles, so; STONED and not really present would be my guess. Ian, however, that dude could sing. He had a great rock voice but could still hold a note. His falsetto is shocking, but to high for me. However, I have, in my own mind, matched him note for note through the other lyrics including the initial OOOOO's. Regardless, this is one of my top favorite songs and I can't help but sing along, as far as I can, every time I hear it. You keep hitting them out of the park, young lady!
The reason they're sitting like that is this is what a European TV studio audience was then. This song is more than a hit, it's a masterpiece from their landmark 1970 album In Rock, which is a rabbit hole in itself. Nice reaction.👍😊
One of the greatest bands of all time people jut sit there. Glad you liked them, need to check out the band rainbow and there song stargazer. Hope you have blessed rest of your week! 😀😀😁✌
Regarding "jamming", the thing you have to consider is that these bands, and music of the 70s (I'm 65, so I have some idea of what I'm talking about 😊) were not seen with the same eyes you have. When I think about my youth and this band, in particular, the music was amazing, but it was also "organic", meaning that it just existed along with everything else which was going on. We were so localized growing up, for the most part and, though radio and television were an important part of our lives, especially music, we lived mostly in our own little worlds, free from the rest of the world. Was it the best of times? It doesn't matter. Those young people experienced this music while, at the same time, remaining composed, though not everyone in the audience was subdued. There were a few very enthusiastic responses. Another thing to consider is that this time in history allowed for such freedom in the music created. It was a very creative time, musically speaking. I enjoyed your reaction and hope I've been able to provide some insight into the music of that time. Cheers : )
The difference between other excellent rock bands and Deep Purple was Jon Lord. A player who over decades spent weeks if not months sustaining a simple 3 note chord in his right hand. But come the time to play percussion with exceptional accuracy (4:33) or some unexpected harmonies (8:12) or a run for the hills counterpoint extended run (14:05) Jon never disappointed. A really exceptional musician! As regards the audience a slice of moldy bread has greater vigor to partake in life. Sod them, at least 1000 viewers actively enjoyed this and I am sure that number will rise.
Deep Purple top band in the world. In ticket sales and lps sold in 1973. Sold over 130 million lps. Jon Lord passed away rip top keyboardist in the world. Ritchie Blackmore is the top 3 in the world. All star band are an understatement.
@MaddyReactions I would do Deep Purple burn live in California Jam. Take a look at the mrk 3 Purple 400k people there not sitting being polite for TV show. Watch the reaction from your audience. Good luck with this channel. I will subscribe rock on 🤘
There sure were some great rock tenors back in the day. Many of them! There's a reason they picked Ian Gillan (the tenor here) to sing the role of Jesus for the Jesus Christ Superstar concept album back in the day. 🙂 Maddy, you should take a stroll through the mid 60's to late 70's era of rock & roll. You seem like you're feeling the groove. There's a lot of really good music from back then just waiting for you. Great reaction! Thank you!
In those days, TV audiences were tightly controlled by the director and crews. Moreover, you would not normally know the guests for the filming/taping til you were there. The Purple were ahead of their time, and it is very likely this audience had never heard anything like this and were more likely into Herb Alpert, Glen Campbell, or Neil Sedaka and would have little awareness of the bleeding edge of improvisational blues/rock of Deep Purple. I remember being in a studio audience in the early 70s and they wanted no movement or sound from the audience until the queue signs were raised.
That was a studio recording! Management has advised the audience to be absolutely quiet. Why don't people research such a "strange" audience reaction in advance before mocking it?!🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
I thought the audience was shocked. Looked like older moms with kids. How did you find out the info on the performance? And I'm sure bobbing your head, and moving a little was allowed. Regardless, still an epic performance. Blessings.@@dieterdodel835
A 1970 performance… the year before I was born. Yet I never heard it until a year or two ago, but I love it. Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore would later go on to found the band Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio.
@@MaddyReactionsRainbow is an exceptional group worth checking out and remains one of my favorites. "Stargazer" is a must. Plus the 1997 Munich live song called "Mistreated" - cover of the classic Deep Purple song.
My late father, who passed away in 1982 referred to "Black Sabbath" as a "me too" band, or the "poor man's" version of Deep Purple. BS sold a lot of records to the 14-year-old crowd though. None of these bands "invented" Heavy Metal, though. The credit for that goes to Jimi Hendrix with "Purple Haze" a few years before Zep, DP or BS came into existence.
@@alkholos Might still disagree but good point; was kind of "experimental" at the time and definately a classic for us to listen over and over again. Those were sooo different but still in a same "genre" at the time. For me those Zep, DP and BS are originals and for your late father, respect !!, Jimi was the man; all the best and let´s keep finding out new things to comment.
Great reaction to an absolutely stunning classic song! This is absolute dope and a total masterpiece! I don’t know where you’re getting your recommendations from but they sure got good taste! 🌹
The crowd is not jamming because they've been told not to. It was sometimes the case with tv-recordings at that time. @ 9:25 I think every later rock and metal band took inspiration from Deep Purple, lol.
The guitar soloist was Ritchie Blackmore who formed Rainbow after leaving Deep Purple. Rainbow had Ronnie James Dio on vocals!🔥💯 If you haven't done any Dio check out the "Stargazer"🔥live video! It's a BANGER!💥🤗❤️✌️
Maddy, u keep asking about the crowd being so reserved. This particular performance was produced for British TV Show "Doing Their Thing" in 1970. I agree with comment by Cadinho above. Audience had to be quiet so TV sound team could present a decent show for the viewing audience, in this case. Believe me when they performed in open air outdoor concerts the crowds were going wild. But in a controlled environment like a tv show or a recording studio the rules had to be changed. Thanks for posting!
I saw them at a few Festivals in the early 70's in the U.K. & believe me the crowd was jammin' with them, they always gave their all. A huge band & an epic tune, up there with "Stairway to Heaven".
Deep Purple, my favorite band, I am a singer of the official Deep Purple tribute band, I had the pleasure of having Sir Ian Paice on drums at a concert in Rome. the name of my band and Never Before.
The audience was asked to hold their applause till the end BUT personally speaking, I think that they just weren't ready! Lol! I was 16 when this was made. I was totally ready.
This is Deep Purple's Dazed and Confused to me. Led Zeppelin had Dazed and Confused and Deep Purple had Child in Time that were masterpieces. This has been one of my two favorite DP songs of all time. Ian Gillan had the perfect voice and the rest of the band had the perfect music and sound! I remember this video surfacing in the bootleg realm prior to ever officially getting released. It was awesome to see the official release finally :-) Brian in Fort Worth 🎶
this was the first performance of this song and this was in germany in 1970 on a tv special and well they were a little polite and in awe a bit i think.
CYMBALS !!!!!! Yeah I know , Deep Purple can do that to ya! 🤯🤣 Glad to see it worked on you Please please please Try Deep Purples ‘Highway Star ‘ Or ‘Burn’ If you like MV Then I highly recommend Deep Purple ‘Made in Japan ‘ album Recorded live Enjoy
ON ANOTHER POPULAR SONG OF THEIRS , "SMOKE ON THE WATER" RICHIE BLACKMORE , THE GUITARIST , WHO WROTE THE SONG SAID IF BEETHOVEN WAS STILL ALIVE , HE'D OWE HIM ALOT OF MONEY ! CAUSE WHEN HE WROTE "SMOKE ON THE WATER" , HE INVERTED BEETHOVEN'S 5TH SYMPHONY , ON THE INTRO !
You have to consider the time this video was recorded. Adolescence (late '60s and early '70s) was a little different. All this music in that time was so new, so... different, so surprising. They LISTENED to the songs with interest and didn't jump around wildly like they do with all the normal garbage that exists today.
The crowd came to see "SLEEP Purple," apparently. (Actually, they were told -- many audiences were around this era -- to stay still and quiet, lest the sensitive mics pick up THEIR sounds , as editing tech was not then what it is now. And Deep Purple is WORTH every . frozen. muscle. LOL)
As others have said, this was a studio where they were recording for what would be a live album track. Back in 1970 the equipment was delicate in the extreme. It was almost first generation transistors evolved from valves. No digital recording, no silicon chips, just analogue rudimentary tape. Many of the senior sound technicians had a background in RADAR from the war and were extremely protective of their delicate equipment. The instructions to the audience were to not make any noise that could ruin the recording - it was probably made very forcefully with threats of violence. Those were very different times, the ability to post process isolated tracks and fix them digitally was many years into the future. Of course, that's the real genius of what you hear, it's what they played and sang.
1:25 - I can always tell when reactors have musical knowledge by their sudden reaction to the dissonant notes played by Jon Lord in this part of the song. 😉
Yes the crowd situation is strange but it's rent a crowd turning up. They have probably been told to sit quiet and not distract the cameras if its a BBC recording.....in a way its best so the musicians can lay down this superb recording being appreciated over 50 years later
If you want to listen to the most beautiful Deep Purple concert listen to Made in Japan, you can find it on TH-cam, in audio only version, apart from an old video recording of Starway ti Heaven, legendary....
Yes indeed, unreal, masterful performance and that is the tip of the iceberg with Deep Purple. Unreal influence group for all heavy music to come, of the most highly skilled musicians you could find. They were huge and rightfully so. Try another stellar live performance with the video of the California Jam 1974, they were there with Black Sabbath and ELP amongst others in a great show before 250,000 fans going nuts. Try Deep Purple and You Fool No One, one of Ritchie Blackmore's best guitar solos. Also War Pigs by Black Sabbath there and ELP doing Karn Evil 9. Great music that needs to be heard , Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Thanks Maddy. I think you feel that DP is a great band regardless the tempered crowd reaction that others have mentioned here. I wondered the samr when I first saw this video. They did many of their hits during that same live studio session. Highway Star is always a fan favorite and copied by many fine bands as well..(see live Sammy Hagar w/his band Chicken Foot - great tribute rendition!) Also, alittle footnote about Ian Gillan, DPs vocalist, he was Jesus on the original album soundtrack for Jesus Christ Superstar, the rock opera. Highly recommend it. A great listen!
About the audience: "how could you not be dancing to that?" 1. In those time well-behaved people used to know how to sit at a cultural event. 2. This song is a tragic anti-war appeal, not a disco theme. How DO you dance to scream of dyings men, soldiers stricken with panic under the rain of "flying lead, waiting for a ricochet"? 3. They were asked not to make noises that might disturb the sound quality on the recording. I hope this answers your wonderings on the subject ( I felt bad not being able to answer about the influences on the Martian Voltas)
The guitarist is Ritchie Blackmore who after Deep Purple went on to form Blackmore's Rainbow. Now he is singing with his wife in Blackmore's Night with his wife Candace Night.
I've not seen a single person that heard this for the first time get their mind blown off. True musicianship: no filters, no autotunes, just straight talent. Deep Purple is one of the best bands ever, entire line up is insanely great.
Also, this was in the era of first live recordings in Studios. The audience were warned to keep quiet as any sound they'd make would affect the recording… Inside they were rocking, though.

So true!!!
Exactly this. There actual regular Arena concerts were insane.
And Deep purple used an hamond organ in their songs
,... Corr. : a Hammond...! 😊
BERNIE GERMANY ❤
Jon Lord on the organ, great stuff! Got to see this Deep Purple lineup, MKII lineup the best Deep Purple, on their reunion tour in 1985, so I’m old…
Oh! Bet that was a fun one!
imagine the conversations the crowd had after. they had never seen or heard anything like this
I bet!
Ritchie Blackmore, guitar player, a living legend, no more words needed.
One of the best rock tunes ever written by one of the best rock bands ever, legends !
Yesss
Hey Maddy - love the reaction! The crowd are not jammin' because back in the day they were told to be quiet for the sake of the recording. Deep Purple have lots of cool tracks such as Highway Star, Hush, Burn, Smoke on the Water, Space Truckin', Speed King and so many more!

Nice reaction !
Blessings be with you !

always love looking at the crowd. not what they expected, deep purple was a game changer. crowd came to hear some slow something. top comment i have seen was about crowd 'they don't get it but their children are gonna love it!
So epic!!!
Jon lord and Ritchie Blackmore were two of the best musicians at the time
Laughs in Ian paice

CROWD : They were not into rock yet, it wasn't trendy.
The very same crowd today looks the same way at Russia "Humanity? Values? Family? Religion? ... The hell they are up to? Very dangerous, It could infect the world!"
Thank for your reaction.
I think you are a very good listener because I noticed you detect all the changes and sounds from the instruments and realize when they were improvising or jamming as you say.
Deep Purple is a great band of maestros, every one is a special musician and composer; Jon Lord on keyboards, is a classical symphonic composer.
Ritchie Blackmore on guitar, was classically trained when he was younger.

They are very good!
Great job calling out the bass in this song. He absolutely makes that guitar solo that much better.
Yes definitely!!!
Roger never gets enough credit. He surely deserves it.
In a band with a keyboard player, especially one as amazing as Jon Lord, a bass player is usually irrelevant. But Roger Glover is a force of nature.
At age 10, my brother came back from the Navy and I snuck in his car and heard Deep Purple In Rock, which had this song on that album. I heard it in his car, cassette! Deep Purple "Made In Japan," is on my top 5 Live Rock Albums of all Time.

Makes sense!
I don’t know why they weren’t bouncing round! I was in a band at this time and played Deep Purple covers. We’d be leaping around like loonies.
One of Deep Purples very best. This live performance is awesome!
🤍
The crowd were warned not too make any sound while doing a live recording as it would be picked up & effect the music .. Remember this was the 70’s & live recording was not near as sophisticated as today .. Inside they were rocking 😊. Need to listen to “Smoke on the Water “ has one of the most well known & famous riffs in music 🎶.. Great review as always ☘️😀👍
Makes sense
I got to see Deep Purple a few years ago , and yes , the only original was the drummer , Ian paice ! But , I still loved it because Deep Purple has been one of my favorites for over 40 years ! This line up was my favorite . And yes , they helped influence a lot of different bands , including Metallica . Deep Purple is so much more than just Smoke On The Water !! Just wait until you check out Strange Kind Of Woman , live in 1972 !! Incredible !! But then all of there stuff is incredible !!
Vocalist Ian Gillian as well as the original bass player are still with them. Just saw them for the upteenth time a few months ago.
A fave from my 70s teen years. Everything was just so raw and authentic back then. Took real talent to shine and break thru.
Nice remind and react
Once in a lifetime band, all of them are the best in their fields
Yes!
Definitely. Jon Lord played 2 keyboards at once. I've always liked Ian Paice better than John Bonham. And the Man in Black, Richie Blackmore. A mysterious genius of classic rock.

It was in the 1970s and the crowd was told not to mess up the recording. Tape was expensive in those days :)
That opening riff on the organ (the part done with his left hand) was taken (legally) from the Band It's A Beautiful Days instrumental song "Bombay Calling". Which you might enjoy giving a listen to, along with their signature song "White Bird".
Oooh interesting!

Regardless, this is one of my top favorite songs and I can't help but sing along, as far as I can, every time I hear it.
You keep hitting them out of the park, young lady!
The reason they're sitting like that is this is what a European TV studio audience was then. This song is more than a hit, it's a masterpiece from their landmark 1970 album In Rock, which is a rabbit hole in itself. Nice reaction.👍😊
Oooh okay
One of the greatest bands of all time people jut sit there. Glad you liked them, need to check out the band rainbow and there song stargazer. Hope you have blessed rest of your week! 😀😀😁✌
Cool!
Regarding "jamming", the thing you have to consider is that these bands, and music of the 70s (I'm 65, so I have some idea of what I'm talking about 😊) were not seen with the same eyes you have. When I think about my youth and this band, in particular, the music was amazing, but it was also "organic", meaning that it just existed along with everything else which was going on. We were so localized growing up, for the most part and, though radio and television were an important part of our lives, especially music, we lived mostly in our own little worlds, free from the rest of the world. Was it the best of times? It doesn't matter. Those young people experienced this music while, at the same time, remaining composed, though not everyone in the audience was subdued. There were a few very enthusiastic responses. Another thing to consider is that this time in history allowed for such freedom in the music created. It was a very creative time, musically speaking. I enjoyed your reaction and hope I've been able to provide some insight into the music of that time. Cheers : )
Ahhh 💖💖💖
The difference between other excellent rock bands and Deep Purple was Jon Lord. A player who over decades spent weeks if not months sustaining a simple 3 note chord in his right hand. But come the time to play percussion with exceptional accuracy (4:33) or some unexpected harmonies (8:12) or a run for the hills counterpoint extended run (14:05) Jon never disappointed. A really exceptional musician! As regards the audience a slice of moldy bread has greater vigor to partake in life. Sod them, at least 1000 viewers actively enjoyed this and I am sure that number will rise.
Oooh
Deep Purple top band in the world. In ticket sales and lps sold in 1973. Sold over 130 million lps. Jon Lord passed away rip top keyboardist in the world. Ritchie Blackmore is the top 3 in the world. All star band are an understatement.
Oh wow
@MaddyReactions I would do Deep Purple burn live in California Jam. Take a look at the mrk 3 Purple 400k people there not sitting being polite for TV show. Watch the reaction from your audience. Good luck with this channel. I will subscribe rock on 🤘
There sure were some great rock tenors back in the day. Many of them! There's a reason they picked Ian Gillan (the tenor here) to sing the role of Jesus for the Jesus Christ Superstar concept album back in the day. 🙂 Maddy, you should take a stroll through the mid 60's to late 70's era of rock & roll. You seem like you're feeling the groove. There's a lot of really good music from back then just waiting for you. Great reaction! Thank you!
Definitely!
In those days, TV audiences were tightly controlled by the director and crews. Moreover, you would not normally know the guests for the filming/taping til you were there. The Purple were ahead of their time, and it is very likely this audience had never heard anything like this and were more likely into Herb Alpert, Glen Campbell, or Neil Sedaka and would have little awareness of the bleeding edge of improvisational blues/rock of Deep Purple.
I remember being in a studio audience in the early 70s and they wanted no movement or sound from the audience until the queue signs were raised.
You are very in tune with the bands
🤍
Great live band music sounds great voice
I feel you, the crowd was stoic as hell. I would have been running around jamming with em. Pure unadulterated Jams.
Right!! Lol
That was a studio recording! Management has advised the audience to be absolutely quiet.
Why don't people research such a "strange" audience reaction in advance before mocking it?!🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
I thought the audience was shocked. Looked like older moms with kids. How did you find out the info on the performance? And I'm sure bobbing your head, and moving a little was allowed. Regardless, still an epic performance. Blessings.@@dieterdodel835
A 1970 performance… the year before I was born. Yet I never heard it until a year or two ago, but I love it. Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore would later go on to found the band Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio.
Oooh
@@MaddyReactionsRainbow is an exceptional group worth checking out and remains one of my favorites. "Stargazer" is a must. Plus the 1997 Munich live song called "Mistreated" - cover of the classic Deep Purple song.
Hi, MaddyReactions! Deep Purple is an amazing group!
Yes they are!
Great reaction, to a great performance !!
💖💖💖
burble is one timeless favorite band great organ and Gillan's voice I say keep it up LOL ; )
Ahhh
I love you! You recognize a bass! (So many don’t)
Lol I like good bass, it can make or break a song imo
The mighty trilogy of Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and Led Zeppelin pretty much started the change in music that influenced a generation and more.
And started US "heavy metal". By the way; one of "glam rock" pioneers in US scene was Hanoi Rocks (from Finland).
Awesome
Yeah right, spider bro ~ B U T to me, American ROCK/HM MUSIC is shitty crap except KISS / MANOWAR / GFR / THE DOORS!!! BERNIE GERMANY ❤🎉😊
My late father, who passed away in 1982 referred to "Black Sabbath" as a "me too" band, or the "poor man's" version of Deep Purple. BS sold a lot of records to the 14-year-old crowd though. None of these bands "invented" Heavy Metal, though. The credit for that goes to Jimi Hendrix with "Purple Haze" a few years before Zep, DP or BS came into existence.
@@alkholos Might still disagree but good point; was kind of "experimental" at the time and definately a classic for us to listen over and over again. Those were sooo different but still in a same "genre" at the time. For me those Zep, DP and BS are originals and for your late father, respect !!, Jimi was the man; all the best and let´s keep finding out new things to comment.
Great reaction to an absolutely stunning classic song! This is absolute dope and a total masterpiece!
I don’t know where you’re getting your recommendations from but they sure got good taste! 🌹
Lol recs are from awesome people!
The crowd is not jamming because they've been told not to. It was sometimes the case with tv-recordings at that time.
@ 9:25 I think every later rock and metal band took inspiration from Deep Purple, lol.
Oooh
I love how you like the stuff that predates you, Mandy, and you really get it.
💖🌸🤍
This was Primetime Deep Purple unmatched
Ahhh
5 very great musicians...
Deep Purple for a new listener is the band to follow ,they are legend .. Check out the song Black Night ,it is from this same era..
So true!
When they made it to America the crowds were up and Jaming Big! I loved every time i was able to see them
The falsetto on the lead singer is remarkable.
Agreed
TV audiences were always told to stay seated and quiet so as not to interrupt or disturb the performance.
Ahhh
Also audiences really didnt know what to expect!! Many were variety shows where many different acts would precede and follow a hard rock band
The guitar soloist was Ritchie Blackmore who formed Rainbow after leaving Deep Purple. Rainbow had Ronnie James Dio on vocals!🔥💯 If you haven't done any Dio check out the "Stargazer"🔥live video! It's a BANGER!💥🤗❤️✌️
Oooh
This was the best version of the band saw them 5 times
Maddy, u keep asking about the crowd being so reserved. This particular performance was produced for British TV Show "Doing Their Thing" in 1970. I agree with comment by Cadinho above. Audience had to be quiet so TV sound team could present a decent show for the viewing audience, in this case. Believe me when they performed in open air outdoor concerts the crowds were going wild. But in a controlled environment like a tv show or a recording studio the rules had to be changed. Thanks for posting!
Ahh
No autotune pure talent
I saw them at a few Festivals in the early 70's in the U.K. & believe me the crowd was jammin' with them, they always gave their all. A huge band & an epic tune, up there with "Stairway to Heaven".
Studio recording. Crowd was instructed to remain quiet and passive.
Ahh
When Talent was REAL
Led Zeppelin with great balls !!! Best hard rock band ever !!! 5 men out of time !!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
YOU BETTER CLOSE YOUR EYES !
Deep Purple, my favorite band, I am a singer of the official Deep Purple tribute band, I had the pleasure of having Sir Ian Paice on drums at a concert in Rome. the name of my band and Never Before.
British audiences at that time were very disciplined and would wait for the song to be over before applauding.
Wow, so cool
The audience was asked to hold their applause till the end BUT personally speaking, I think that they just weren't ready! Lol! I was 16 when this was made. I was totally ready.
This is Deep Purple's Dazed and Confused to me. Led Zeppelin had Dazed and Confused and Deep Purple had Child in Time that were masterpieces. This has been one of my two favorite DP songs of all time. Ian Gillan had the perfect voice and the rest of the band had the perfect music and sound! I remember this video surfacing in the bootleg realm prior to ever officially getting released. It was awesome to see the official release finally :-)
Brian in Fort Worth 🎶
Oh?
Now you have to do "Smoke on the Water". One of the most famous guitar riffs in all of Rock.
Oooh
this was the first performance of this song and this was in germany in 1970 on a tv special and well they were a little polite and in awe a bit i think.
Not surprisingly, Deep Purple is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Awesome!
This was part of my preteen introduction to music
🩷🩷🩷
CYMBALS !!!!!!

Ah the good old days, Deep Purple, drinking Newcastle Brown and smoking Afghani black hash in the store room of my mates Mums off licence.😂
LOL 😂😂😂
Deep purple 💜 always sounds good 👍
Yesss
Only a child born today could miss the point.
ON ANOTHER POPULAR SONG OF THEIRS , "SMOKE ON THE WATER" RICHIE BLACKMORE , THE GUITARIST , WHO WROTE THE SONG SAID IF BEETHOVEN WAS STILL ALIVE , HE'D OWE HIM ALOT OF MONEY ! CAUSE WHEN HE WROTE "SMOKE ON THE WATER" , HE INVERTED BEETHOVEN'S 5TH SYMPHONY , ON THE INTRO !
Niceee
You have to consider the time this video was recorded. Adolescence (late '60s and early '70s) was a little different. All this music in that time was so new, so... different, so surprising. They LISTENED to the songs with interest and didn't jump around wildly like they do with all the normal garbage that exists today.
Ahh okay!
The crowd came to see "SLEEP Purple," apparently. (Actually, they were told -- many audiences were around this era -- to stay still and quiet, lest the sensitive mics pick up THEIR sounds , as editing tech was not then what it is now. And Deep Purple is WORTH every . frozen. muscle. LOL)
Ahhh
As others have said, this was a studio where they were recording for what would be a live album track. Back in 1970 the equipment was delicate in the extreme. It was almost first generation transistors evolved from valves. No digital recording, no silicon chips, just analogue rudimentary tape. Many of the senior sound technicians had a background in RADAR from the war and were extremely protective of their delicate equipment. The instructions to the audience were to not make any noise that could ruin the recording - it was probably made very forcefully with threats of violence.
Those were very different times, the ability to post process isolated tracks and fix them digitally was many years into the future. Of course, that's the real genius of what you hear, it's what they played and sang.
That Hammond organ ... it needs it's own Top Gear show.
Cymbals. Anyway yeah Deep Purple is amazing
Agreed! Thanks!
1:25 - I can always tell when reactors have musical knowledge by their sudden reaction to the dissonant notes played by Jon Lord in this part of the song. 😉
So cool!
Extra! Very very nice. Super reakcija 😍✨
💖
Great song
Agreed
Yes the crowd situation is strange but it's rent a crowd turning up. They have probably been told to sit quiet and not distract the cameras if its a BBC recording.....in a way its best so the musicians can lay down this superb recording being appreciated over 50 years later
Oooh
This was a recording session not a concert.
So cool!
It was on Granada reports for the people of nw England
If you want to listen to the most beautiful Deep Purple concert listen to Made in Japan, you can find it on TH-cam, in audio only version, apart from an old video recording of Starway ti Heaven, legendary....
Love your reactions matty love you ❤
💖💖💖
Yes indeed, unreal, masterful performance and that is the tip of the iceberg with Deep Purple. Unreal influence group for all heavy music to come, of the most highly skilled musicians you could find. They were huge and rightfully so. Try another stellar live performance with the video of the California Jam 1974, they were there with Black Sabbath and ELP amongst others in a great show before 250,000 fans going nuts. Try Deep Purple and You Fool No One, one of Ritchie Blackmore's best guitar solos. Also War Pigs by Black Sabbath there and ELP doing Karn Evil 9. Great music that needs to be heard , Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
100%!
Thanks Maddy. I think you feel that DP is a great band regardless the tempered crowd reaction that others have mentioned here. I wondered the samr when I first saw this video. They did many of their hits during that same live studio session. Highway Star is always a fan favorite and copied by many fine bands as well..(see live Sammy Hagar w/his band Chicken Foot - great tribute rendition!)
Also, alittle footnote about Ian Gillan, DPs vocalist, he was Jesus on the original album soundtrack for Jesus Christ Superstar, the rock opera. Highly recommend it. A great listen!
Definitely
About the audience: "how could you not be dancing to that?" 1. In those time well-behaved people used to know how to sit at a cultural event. 2. This song is a tragic anti-war appeal, not a disco theme. How DO you dance to scream of dyings men, soldiers stricken with panic under the rain of "flying lead, waiting for a ricochet"? 3. They were asked not to make noises that might disturb the sound quality on the recording. I hope this answers your wonderings on the subject ( I felt bad not being able to answer about the influences on the Martian Voltas)
Ahh okay
The guitarist is Ritchie Blackmore who after Deep Purple went on to form Blackmore's Rainbow. Now he is singing with his wife in Blackmore's Night with his wife Candace Night.
