Someone on another video told me that Purple's music was watered down Led Zep riffs, and they sounded like King Crimson and Led Zep. Not sure if he was taking his meds or not. 😕
Adam Curry doesn't have a clue. He didn't listen to Deep Purple and knew absolutely nothing about the band or their music. The WRONG guy to do this interview, indicative of the level of respect MTV had for Deep Purple.
Adam Curry's biggest achievement in life is having been married to Patricia Paay. Pity Blackmore wasn't there, he would have given the most nonsensical answers he could think of.
Красавцы, великолепные музыканты, без пафоса и выпендрежа. Жаль, Лорд покинул нас физически, но всё равно среди нас живёт, пока жив хоть один его почитатель!
Excellent points here, particularly re. Bon Jovi. I think BJ were fairly influenced by DP, especially David Bryan/Rashbaum. When I first heard them, I thought some of Purple and UFO had gone into American hard rock. The blend of heavy guitar and classy keyboards - you can't beat that. Lizzy seemed the only HR band that didn't need keyboards, but even they got a keysman in from 1980.
Yeah, it's not in the same league as their all-time-classic "Made in Japan", and Purple all said as much. Blackmore made a huge mistake in switching to a different type of guitar, and Gillan blew out the highest range of his vocal chords on Black Sabbath's "Born Again" tour. The surgeon told him to rest his vocal chords, but Gillan screamed his head off, instead. That's why you hear almost no screaming at all on the "Perfect Strangers" album, other than a few seconds on "Not Responsible." "Nobody's Perfect" was a major letdown and reflected Ian Gillan's alcoholism - as Lord said, Gillan couldn't remember the words on half of the 17 concerts they recorded. That's why the disc was/is garbage. More than 30 years later, Gillan was still singing and sounding good on albums and terrible in concert. Sad, because he was one of the great live singers of all time in the 1970s.
@@AlbertEinsteinSpock To be fair, after Child In Time on In rock, there wasn't an awful lot of screaming on the studio albums. Gillan did scream a bit Live, as can be heard On Made In Japan...Strange Kind Of Woman.
A couple of the songs were edited together, the first half from one date and the second half from another. Ritchie broke his hand during the show in Phoenix, which is why there's an x-ray of a hand on the record sleeve; not sure if it's included in the CD booklet. The Japanese version of the album is a double-CD and has one or two extra tracks, making up what would have been their set-list at the time (more or less).
Gary Unsworth - Yeah, it’s pretty awful. They simply weren’t at their best. It’s widely known that Gillan was sloppy at the time but Blackmore’s playing (live, anyway) was pretty atrocious in the 80s DP.
Concordo, há muitas bandas ótimas ms em meu coração DP e LZ estarão sempre em primeiro lugar 😊 (acho que é hereditário sabe, meus pais eram e ainda são fãs deles)
They were doing it only for the money at this stage ... they’ve admitted recently. However they regained their dignity when Steve Morse joined on guitar and they made Purpendicular, one of the best rock albums you are likely to hear .... by anyone. They now have no 1 albums 50 years into their career . Infinite was no 1 in Germany and Austria. New album due in a couple of months ... 2020... called whoosh!
I thought they were going to tell the story behind the bet lol. Heard the background story of that several times. Was new fact to me that it was in fact arson.
@@AlbertEinsteinSpock Nah I was joking, I'm sure it was just coincidence. David Coverdale wrote the lyrics to Burn and I doubt that he was thinking of SOTW when he wrote the song.
@@CB-xr1eg In that case, you have a good sense of humor. Coverdale may've written the lyrics, but Blackmore selected the album title and the song title.
@@AlbertEinsteinSpock What has " humour " got to do with it? The album was titled ater the song Burn which has lyrics and title by David Coverdale. The tune was by Ritchie and is based on Fascinating Rythym by George Gershwin.
The WORST album ever released by the Great British Dragon, that was, Deep Purple. If you don’t believe me, just look at how awkwardly, Jon Lord is answering these questions. I know and he knows….this was shite 👌
Why oh why did they put out that album. The only tracks they played without being sloppy were Bad attitude and the studio jam Hush. I am a huge fan but that album should not exist.
Never understood why they released that version of hush which was very sloppy. They even spent money for a video which could have went towards a better song.
For most fans this version (with Gillan) has become the definitive version of Hush, it’s harder, wilder and alot more brash than the tame 60’s original.
Nobody looks and sound like them, they were the perfect Rock Band.
Someone on another video told me that Purple's music was watered down Led Zep riffs, and they sounded like King Crimson and Led Zep. Not sure if he was taking his meds or not. 😕
They have been ;)
Yes
What a nice, polite young lady asking the questions.
Real hard rock guys. Health to Glover. RIP our dear Jon.
Two quality gentlemen of one of the greatest rock bands ever, Jon's hair is perfect I love it
Was that a wig?
@@EdubertoPalitroke Nah.
No..he was getting older.
This was 31 years ago, rest in peace Jon lord 😎👍
One of the greatest of all time. 😢
Ritchie always present even when he's not.
I always feel that as well 😆 it's like he's controlling everything behind the scenes 😏
Saw D P play Melbourne, Australia in 1985 for the Perfect Strangers tour.
A great memorable night.
Still have the ticket stub.
R.I.P. Jon Lord.
Saw them both nights in Chicago lost my ticket stubs
Jon's passing was such a devastating loss to the music world. R.I.P. Jon.
GREETINGS FROM ITALY🇮🇹 I LIKE SO MUCH YOUR MITIC BAND🔝👏💿🎶🎧💿
Big fan of Deep Purple. Fantastic rock band.
🇬🇧✌️☘️

@Craig Eyler
Yeah and Adam asked "why a live album this time? Hadn't written any new songs?" What an idiot. But he had really great hair.
Adam Curry's biggest achievement in life is having been married to Patricia Paay. Pity Blackmore wasn't there, he would have given the most nonsensical answers he could think of.
Jon Lord = Hammond Gold Genius .........
Graham bond was the ultimate genius on the organ
"Jon Douglas Lord🎹"(R.I.P)
Великие рокеры !
Гении Столетия !
Rest in Peace 🙏🙍
Richey Blackmore's influence & presence on DP no doubt was always There!
Interessante conversazione cari Deep Purple ♥ Grazie mille …
John Lord eterno!
Great guys!!! For me Jon Lord, sure!!!
Se veía que Jon lord era un tipo muy gracioso. Descanse en paz Maestro
Красавцы, великолепные музыканты, без пафоса и выпендрежа. Жаль, Лорд покинул нас физически, но всё равно среди нас живёт, пока жив хоть один его почитатель!
Согласна! Добавлю ГЕНИИ!!!👍💜

Cream didn't need keyboards...and yes they were heavy rock. Also in the 70's Quo didn't always have keyboads.
Roger e jonh manca solo paice. I miei grandi amori. I musicisti migliori al mondo.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Hello, i really appreciate your love and support and i hope you never stop listening. How are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
Saludos desde lima PERÚ
Glover & Lord are as awesome as Adam's hair is big
The Interviewer who is 15 years younger than Glover and Lord today looks more dated than the Purple guys
Yes and coat sleeves pulled up to the elbow? It was in for about 10 weeks in 1988.
MTv itself is but a prehistoric relic by now.
@@AlbertEinsteinSpock lol. I was saying the way lord and Glover looked back then is less dated then the Interviewer 🤨
guys noticing other guys fashion...lamo
@@dashriprock5720 you know what ZZ Top said.
Jon looking every inch the mansion - dwelling debonair rock star here.
Perfect description.
@@GreenerHill Thank you old bean.
Very good interview
Hi I like you’re music a lot!
I got to see Deep Purple at giants stadium. Guns and Roses opened and Purple middle spot then Aerosmith 💜. Loved Purple stole the show.
Jon Lord reminds me of Mick Fleetwood the way he talks/accent
Nobody's Perfect is not a patch on Made in Japan
Every Live album that isn't Made In Japan, is not a patch on Made In Japan.
Yeah, it's not in the same league as their all-time-classic "Made in Japan", and Purple all said as much.

80s style! 80s rules!
great interview
10:32 - Jon Lord: 'We used an x-ray of his (R. Blackmore's broken finger) hand on the inside cover (of the live album)...'
Jon "the lion" Lord?
Maybe I’m a Leo?
@@fotioskatsoulis99 The best!
He's a Gemini.
Dupla incrível 🎼🎸🎹
Que dupla! Na verdade, que quinteto!
O Deep Purple é um quinteto de outro planeta! 🎶🎤🎸🥁🎹🎵😊 (e se vc me permitir, o Led Zeppelin também é um quarteto de outro mundo!) 😁
Permissão concedida! Excelentes bandas e olha que tem outras .
Concordo, há muitas bandas ótimas ms em meu coração DP e LZ estarão sempre em primeiro lugar 😊 (acho que é hereditário sabe, meus pais eram e ainda são fãs deles)
Oi Márcia, você tem um ótimo gosto musical. Falo do DF e você?
NOBODY'S PERFECT
LIVE CONCERT TRACKS
ROCKS INDEED IT DOES
Weed Me
Huh. Never knew that John Lord was lead singer for a while in 1973.
He wasn't. *JON* Lord never sang. Not sure why you think he did. Roger clearly explained that David Coverdale replaced ian gillan in 1973.
Where the hell did you get that from?
gillan grew a beard in 1973....just before he left D.P.
but you should get your eyes tested....
Trouble was brewing again and Gillan was about to be fired...
4:10 Drum sound on MiJ is so much better. Why?
Just a horrible sound overall and a terrible live album
They were doing it only for the money at this stage ... they’ve admitted recently. However they regained their dignity when Steve Morse joined on guitar and they made Purpendicular, one of the best rock albums you are likely to hear .... by anyone.
They now have no 1 albums 50 years into their career . Infinite was no 1 in Germany and Austria. New album due in a couple of months ... 2020... called whoosh!
With the talent they had, doing it just for the money, was still amazing
I agree 100%
They never lost their dignity you tune
Hair!
I thought they were going to tell the story behind the bet lol. Heard the background story of that several times. Was new fact to me that it was in fact arson.
Me too, this interview is the first time I heard that. Is it a coincidence that a later album of theirs was called Burn?🔥🔥
@@CB-xr1eg No coincidence. "Smoke on the Water" was their best-known song, so it made sense to go with the "Burn" title for an album in 1974.
@@AlbertEinsteinSpock Nah I was joking, I'm sure it was just coincidence. David Coverdale wrote the lyrics to Burn and I doubt that he was thinking of SOTW when he wrote the song.

Made in Japan was not made in 1971, and nobody corrected this interviewer. 4:07 - 4:13
Nobody’s perfect 😅
The WORST album ever released by the Great British Dragon, that was, Deep Purple.
If you don’t believe me, just look at how awkwardly, Jon Lord is answering these questions. I know and he knows….this was shite 👌
I agree one hundred percent! A pathetic live album.
Why oh why did they put out that album. The only tracks they played without being sloppy were Bad attitude and the studio jam Hush. I am a huge fan but that album should not exist.
Yes the album is quite an embarrassment
Jon's hair interesting here...
I'm a huge purple fan but this is a horrible live album.
1988 must be the worst hair-year ever. (About the interviewer only)
terrible questions!
