My first concert-age 13. I was right on the stage-so loud-Lord's keyboard hovering above me. Blackmore breaks a string. Roadie doesnt bring him a new guitar but instead a replacement string. Blackmore puts it on in 20 seconds-in time for the solo. When the show is over I hop up on stage and grab that broken string as a souvenir-then sit on the edge of the stage and talk to my friends. Not a single security or roadie bothers me. Evansville Indiana-Roberts Stadium. Billy Preston opened. 1971....Rocks greatest year ever. So grateful I got to live in the greatest ever era of music.
blatant plagiarism of the introduction to the song "Maria Moita", by Carlos Lyra, composed eight years earlier. And, instead of giving due credit, he claims he was inspired by Bethoven. Big mess. the greatest riff in the history of rock is a ripoff of bossa nova
FANTASTIC - congrats to Deep Purple, and a big hand for the guys giving this touch of colour and visual innovation to a truly iconic, truly immortal song. 👏🏼🤘🏻💯
As someone who discovered Deep Purple last year I feel they deserve more popularity. Like the original Smoke On The Water video has only 100 million views, and is one of the first riffs guitarists learn. Long live Deep Purple!
I feel like a lot of people know Smoke On The Water, but not a lot of other songs by Deep Purple. There's so much more to them than just Smoke On The Water.
@@tobismusicchannel3033 it’s true and incredible .. Deep Purple are underrated. 😀 Yes .. 23 studio albums and another is at the writing stage. Such variety of musical expression over their whole catalogue .. from 1968. I love their first 3 albums. Great ideas, invention and musicianship in each .. and that’s before this Gillan Glover line up which became the biggest selling act in the world 1973 to 74 (No1 Billboard chart)
Most people on this earth who know and love Deep Purple and this song don't have TH-cam or press like on songs. You can't judge a song by its likes. 😊😊😊

I'm absolutely loving these legacy bands making music videos for their capitol songs made before videos. This might be the best so far.

The absolute best. I was skeptical when I saw it come up, and remained so for the first few seconds during the vinyl sequence... but then it reached the "surface" and I was like "this is interesting and INCREDIBLY well made", and couldn't stop watching. Put on my headphones 1 minute in and I don't know if they also did something to the audio or if it was just the expanded audiovisual experience, but I was completely and absolutely blown away. Know them since the late 90s when my older brothers got really into DP (Machinehead, Burn, Made in Japan, the "Come Hell or High Water" VHS were all on constant rotation at home when I was 12-15), so this is also a multigenerational journey and the video is a mindblowing contribution to what is already a masterpiece--and that is an incredible feat. And an incredible tribute to this lineup, "the" lineup, including those that left us too soon either due to "personal differences", or due to unfortunate and untimely illness. Glad it comes out while still the rest is around in their 8th- 9th decade of life, for them to just enjoy and look back at the foundation they built and the legacy it delivered. Bravo.
@@Cabamacadaf Haha, I was going to ask exactly the same thing because I'm not usually a fan of heavy metal or whatever genre this is. But this song even for me is great, and then wow, THIS VIDEO!
Went into a Record store , asked for Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers on CD Clerk said , whats the name of the album ? I said Perfect Strangers , Again the clerk said , but what's the name of the album ? I said its Deep Purple and the name of the album is Perfect Strangers, he shows me sone album with a band called Perfect Strangers , i said NO , That ain't it , The Bands name is Deep Purple and the song is Perfect Strangers, I don't have he said , i will have to order it . Guy must have been having too much Smoke on the Water ?
@@levivolaju883 Doesn’t really matter how you classify them. Genres are just rough guides anyway. The main thing is that it’s good. But in my personal classifications I view the likes of Zep, Purple and Sabbath as heavy rock, which is what it was called initially. Then I associate heavy metal with bands who formed the New Wave of British Heavy Metal - Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Motörhead etc.
We were cruising 8 mile in Detroit when this song came out for the first time and we went wild, loved it, Detroit back then was the heart of RnR and was the best time to be alive, and for Detroit...💯👍
*Apparently* that's partly because the original track does a fade out earlier at the end so you don't really get the full organ solo like you do here. Which just makes this even cooler.
Yeah, I specifically like that the most about this version. In other remixed / remastered releases, the organ often lost some space in the mix (on account of guitars being considered more 'cool' and 'modern' perhaps?). I'm glad that that's not the case here and we can hear some interesting nuances in Jon's playing that were buried before. Well done!

@@WagnerSilva-mg5tr Growing old is a privilege denied to many. Fifty years ago tonight, a few weeks after high school graduation, I met my first college sweetheart. Nineteen months later, he was killed in a car accident. He’ll always be a handsome 19 in my memory. Regardless of how our romance would have otherwise turned out, I still grieve for all the life he didn’t get to live and give thanks for my advancing years.
My mom EVE CHARTIER loved Ian Gillian and the whole band and of course Black Sabbath. This video gave me the chills and tears in my eyes knowing she was watching it with me. So many story's of her and the band.
I was thinking the same thing when I came across this. The real kicker.... what kind of car should be "The Highway Star". I once saw the most immaculate '69 GTO that was done in a truly unique white pearl with medium silver and very light smaller gold contrasting flake lacquer job... mid-blue pinstriping and across the trunklid "Highway Star". It was outside a small country bar in far northern WI... went in, hit the head... kind of scanned the bar to see if I could identify who's car it was to compliment them... heard this rumble... stepped-out front door to see it RIPPING down the highway... no idea who's it was, but the healthy rumble assured me that was no stock motor and if done as fine as the rest of the car... it qualified as "THE Highway Star". Had opportunity to meet and have dinner with Ritchie Blackmore 27ish years ago at House of Blues in Orlando... being polite and respectful, I let him lead conversation directions he desired... but regretted not asking afterward. "Did you guys have or see a specific car that inspired it?" @Skeletron7 - what car would you choose?
@@Skeletron7 Not a bad choice! As an old guy who built a lot of 60s muscle cars. I've had '64, '65, '69 Impalas. Had my neck broken in the '64. Rear-ended by a car going 35mph on impact... the lowback bucket seats with no headrest or should restraint did me no favors, but the big solid frame might be what kept me from being paralyzed and able to walk. 42yrs of chronic pain, yet I consider myself very lucky.
@TomRolfson That's mental! If the car you were in was any more fragile, things could've gone even worse. The thing about muscle cars is that they're extremely stable machines.

And you see a big world star carrying a tray, making his way through the crowd and carrying two cognacs. And I said: "Boro, go to... Return to Belgrade. Dismiss all the bodyguards." I decided to remain normal and to go to the betting shop, to the market, to the pub and anywhere completely normal"
