YESSSSSSSSS now you got my attention. Thank God for Deep Purple.... Jon Lord and Ian Paice are flat out ridiculous on this. Obviously so is Blackmore ;)
@@skipklauber1162 I was praying Ritchie showed up and they did it with him. Get Lars on drums, and ? on keys. Nice mid finger to the Purps for being dicks.
Both Skip and Notgiven are correct. Coverdale was god awful live. Glenn Hughes on the other hand was out of this world, and now he's gotta be 70 and he still belts it out. You should do some Black Country Communion and check out Glenn. DP MKIII should have just had Hughes on vocals. Coverdale spent half of his career trying to be Ian Gillan, and the other half trying to be Robert Plant. Didn't really work. The gauge of a great band or performer is how well they pull it off live, and poor ol' Dave just never had it.
@@paulmahon1613 I liked Cloverdale's first album or 2, before he went big hair and pretty. I saw Hughes in a club in Michigan a couple years ago,and he was friggin awesome.
"Burn" was recorded at Montreux, Switzerland, in November 1973. Although Coverdale wrote the lyrics, they could just as easily have been penned by Blackmore, whose fascination with the Middle Ages, witchcraft and the supernatural is reflected in this tale of a bewitching female. The song became a regular with the band for the next two years. Though Blackmore was the band's main songwriter, he enlisted vocalist David Coverdale, who had only recently joined the band to help. Coverdale recalled to Kerrang! May 30, 2009: "I was a complete unknown but I was involved in writing 'Burn' from the start. Ritchie was obviously the chief composer but I was given a cassette tape of the songs-in-progress and sent back to the north of England to work on the lyric with Glenn Hughes."
Ritchie Blackmore was never a lyricist. The very fact that he fired Ronnie James Dio in 1978 from Rainbow because he wouldn't write 'commercial' lyrics kinda proved that. Both David Coverdale and bassist Glenn Hughes penned lyrics for the 3 Deep Purple albums they recorded; before them, bassist Roger Glover and singer Ian Gillan would write the lyrics for Deep Purple. I recall Ian Gillan saying that he wrote the lyrics to 'Pictures of home' and was worried about Blackmore's reaction... but thankfully, Blackmore heard it and said, "Sounds good." But he didn't like the song 'When a blind man cries'.
Blackmore actually commented he really didn't care for this song and fantasy Rock. It shocked me he said that since Dio was fantasy lyric and had him for years. Of course he got bored with stuff pretty easily and said he wanted to record more Pop style music. He said him and John Bonham would talk at a famous restaurant/bar, in LA or Hollywood don't remember which, about how they liked Pop music and wanted to make more songs that were Pop. I personally think he was pulling the interviewers leg but who knows he said it.
The woman referred to in the song BURN is clearly a witch. The song itself is set in apocalyptic times. This is Ritchie Blackmore's idea of what the End of Days will be, and how Mystery Babylon will rise, and BURN mankind. This is Deep Purple's vision of how this world will end. Biblical, as the Word of God indeed states that this world WILL END BY FIRE. NUCLEAR FIRE. It will ALL BURN!!
There is a young female drummer from Japan named, Yoyoka. She covered this track and did such a great job that Deep Purple's drummer, Ian Paice.....actually reacted to her video. When you get a few minutes, you should give it a look. Not only will you get to see what a talent this young person is, you'll get an appreciation for just how impressive the drum work is in this tune.
@@bugvswindshield the first thing I learned on a guitar was The Ramones, but eventually I ended up learning smoke on the water, impossible avoiding it 😎 but, to be fair, it becomes boring to play, it's much more entertaining for listening
@@BROU-bb2uc everything is stolen from something. Led Zeppelin based their entire early career on stealing entire songs without giving credit to the original composers.
The Maestro on the keyboards Jon Lord so deeply miss he could time travel you with his solo. Every band needs someone like Jon Lord one of the most skilled people who really knew how to play an organ and give it a solid place in rock and roll. Legend and Icon.R.I.P. Mr.Lord
Nobody played the Organ like Jon Lord. For my money, Ian Paice is the greatest Hard Rock drummer of all time. His beat on You Fool No One, from the same album, is considered by many to be THE great drum beat of the Rock era.
One of the best, most powerful Purple tunes. Kicks ass with both feet. There's a video on here of them doing it live at the California Jam that is incredible.
Yeah, for those who don't know, Lord would tip his organ over, back and forth, while he was playing it onstage. Incredible musician and a showman too. What a band.
Everone's comments are right on point. A person who played the organ like that was Jon Lord's influence, "Mark Stein", of the Vanilla Fudge. This is according to Jon and Ritchie. The Vanilla Fudge was the influence for Deep Purple. Once Deep Purple ran with their new influential sound with Deep Purple "In Rock", the legendary sound commenced from that point forward. Deep Purple and all if it's band members mean the world to me. Listening to them brings back the greatest memories and feeling in my lifetime. I enjoyed you listening to them for the first time. I still get goose bumps and happy tears when see the reactions of others! David Coverdale is on his farewell tour. I will be there in Las Vegas this fall. 🙋♂️❤️
Some of us where blessed to grow up during this time musically, even more so to see Deep Purple and others live. I love watching you two react, the smiles come out, the bodies start moving ... YOU CAN"T HELP IT!
Yeah, the story in this song has a definite "Carrie" vibe...I believe part of the organ solo is informed by Bach...This was a critical moment in the band's history, and is sometimes referred to as the "Mark III" lineup. Longtime vocalist Ian Gillan and bassist Roger Glover were gone, replaced by relative unknown David Coverdale (who would later front Whitesnake, whom you have reacted to) and Glenn Hughes, who had been a prominent member of the hard rock band Trapeze. Both Coverdale and Hughes were powerhouse singers. That's Hughes doing the "you know we had no time" part...Fans of the band had been a little concerned about the changes in the lineup, and most were pleased when hearing this song that things sounded pretty good! As always with this band, don't overlook the drums! He is on fire here...
This is one of the major bands that influenced the sound and style of a lot of Rock bands in the 90's like Stone Temple Pilot....Soundgarden....Metallica......Deep Purple are among the gods of Rock n' Roll. And to answer your question>>>>YES......you guys just heard this group!!!! But YES is the Best Rock n' Roll Prog band and Rock n' Roll band...Especially in "CLOSE TO THE EDGE" BY YES.....AND I AM TELLING YOU YES PLAYS THE ORGAN AND SYTHN BETTER THAN DEEP PURPLE!!!! I CHALLENGE YOU TO LISTEN AND REACT TO "CLOSE TO THE EDGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
YES, is the best in your opinion not mine everybody has their favourites, there is no such thing as the best band across all bands. Who was the keyboardist, Rick Wakeman? they have had a couple, in my opinion none were as good as Jon Lord.
That was fire…literally. I was playing a lot of pool in other people’s basement, where we played this endlessly, when it came out in my early high school years. Good times. Seems you both enjoyed this one, which I enjoyed and appreciated.
You need to go watch Deep Purple performance at California Jam of this song live!! It’s a killer version!! Do it on your own even if you don’t react to it!!
This stage is just loaded with talent, but John Lord on the keyboards 🎹 always blows me away. Being a keyboard player myself, maybe I’m a bit biased toward that organ, but Ian Paice on the drums is also a standout on this track. ♥️✌🏼😎
Great reaction. There was a trio of guys that were the core of Deep Purple through the mid 70's ish, when they were doing their most famous stuff. They were all monster players, just great. Ian Paice was the drummer, Jon Lord was organ/keyboards, and RItchie Blackmore was the guitarist. If you want to hear another great organ/guitar workout song, listen to Lazy. Meanest organ sounds ever IMO. Jon Lord played it through a Marshall amp somehow often/alway(?), so could get a wicked distorted almost guitar like tone when he wanted. In the very old days, side 2 of Machine Head was Smoke on the Water, Lazy, and Space Truckin, a really incredible slab of music.
Ritchie Blackmore was one of the greatest riff masters, just look at Smoke on the water and when he was in Rainbow, Since you`ve been gone and Starstruck.
When Deep Purple's guitarist Ritchie Blackmore was inspired, he was on fire 🔥🔥🤘🤘and untouchable... 'Burn' was a track that he shined on... But when he was in a bad mood or irritated, he was trash... Blackmore truly did not give a damn about what other thought - he did what he wanted to do, end of story. That's what gave him such a difficult reputation... despite being one of the greatest guitarists of all time, w/ his work in Deep Purple, Rainbow, and now Blackmore's Night. There are videos of him just tearing it up live in concert... and there are other clips of him just standing around and barely playing guitar. Deep Purple's drummer Ian Paice called Blackmore a 'simple man' in many ways, but said he had a tendency to be offended or 'thrown off' by the smallest gestures or incidents that most people would just brush off. If Blackmore went on stage flustered, he would have a problem playing... and if he had a problem, the band had a problem. In 1974, Deep Purple's massive show at Cal Jam festival was being filmed, and at one point, a cameraman got on Blackmore's nerves during the set and the guitarist destroyed the TV camera (which was an expensive piece of equipment back then).
CONGRATS on reaching 200K! 🎊 I know I’m usually late to get to your reactions but I really enjoy them. Looking forward to the next goal. Btw I use the same headphones as you do. The best without being that expensive.
I grew up listening to this genre of music I’ve just turned 62 and you both more than welcome to come to any party I have love your channel the nostalgia I have just off of what your reacting to is awesome so a huge thank you for Marion in Scotland 🏴 much love to you both
I saw this tour back in 1974 in a huge open air show in Hartford, CT, Elf and Ronnie James Dio opened eyes with their set, then Aerosmith kicked out some serious jams before Deep Purple came out and it was so loud they could have heard it in New Haven, Ritchie Blackmore was immense on thunderous lead guitar, I will never forget the solo in You Fool No One, check out their version at either the California Jam or Live In Europe, they are amazing. Also John Lord is top 5 keyboards ever! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎹🎶
Love this track. Deep Purple are famed for their catchy guitar riffs, complimentary keyboard and guitar solos all driven along to thumping drum beat and layered with fantastic rock vocals.
Hi, thanks for checking out Deep Purple. One of my favorite bands. I've been watching you guys for a while now. Love your channel. Strange kind of woman, is another great song from them too.
as Tommy Bolin once said, Jon knew and could play anything. Ritchie and Jon we're classically trained as shown in this track and many others, including Rainbow. ( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)✌
@@eddhardy1054 True. Rod never had a chance, although it was "Hush" and "Kentucky Woman" that first grabbed my attention. However, the arrangements made those songs, not his voice.
One of the most fun songs to drum to in the history of rock. Also, Blackmore said he was inspired to write this riff when he heard the Gershwin song 'Fascinating Rhythm'.
Actually, no. Lord know about "Fascinating Rhytm" but he told Jon that he never heard it when he wrote the riff. But subconscious he might have, as Jon always said : it has been done before.
Actually no. I saw Ritchie say in an interview that he wrote the riff after he heard Fascinating Rhythm. Now, he may have been lying through his teeth - he was a weasel, but that's what he said. If Jon said Ritchie told him he hadn't heard FR before writing the Riff, then I'm sure it's the truth - I trust Jon Lord more than Ritchie Blackmore. So what I suspect happened is that his inspiration was subliminal - after all, that song was woven into the cultural zeitgeist of our generation - but that later on Blackmore realized it sounded stupid when he denied the connection, so he 'adjusted' his story to make himself sound better? Smarter? More musically aware?
Actually, yes! I agree, Jon is much more trustworthy than Ritchie. Ritchie loves to say things to people that's untrue to see how they react and if they swallow it the more pleased Ritchie gets :-)
The song is about withcraft. The people were going to burn a witch and she turned the tables on them by making everything burn. One of Deep Purple's finest jams. Ian Paice the drummer was called the 'Human Metronome"!
@@ronaldelliott4373 Absolutely agree. I have been playing drums for over 60 years and at my best I could not play what he laid down on this song. And the live version is insane. And the opening to "You Fool No One" live-well, I bet in that entire lead in he never was off the beat. Not a lot of drummers could do that.
@@mikegershon8528 Right on Mike. As someone who has also been drumming for almost as long, I became a fast fan of DP and Paice. The only thing I have in common with Ian is we’re both lefty’s. “You Fool No One” is a incredible example of his talents and a personal favorite as well. Even his stamina today is shocking. Regards from a fellow traveler.
@@ronaldelliott4373 I had a feeling you were a drummer and that we were from roughly the same era. Not a lot of folks know what a swing beat is, and the comment about his wrists was a dead giveaway! Rock on, Ronald!
This is one of the few hard rock groups I enjoyed in the 60's-70's. You've done a few of their songs already. My favorites are their covers of Joe South's "Hush" & Neil Diamond's "Kentucky Woman". Also like "Lazy", "Woman From Tokyo", "Highway Star", "Fireball", "Speed King", "Space Truckin'", etc.
those truly were the days, weren't they? I sometimes wish I could hear all these songs again for the first time, sitting on the floor in my bedroom, stereo cranked, not a care in the world...Rock ON!
Asia speaks likes she would have a brilliant singing voice. Her intonations and inflections are very musical in themselves. Love Purple. Take care both.
That's David Coverdale on vocals. Fantastic voice and Ego also. Later became world famous leading White Snake and the vicious song...Here i go again " and he did 😁
Please do “No no no- but the studio version please” and “Demons eye: also the studio version please” , i hate when people react to the DP live version as a 1st reaction cause the best is in their studio recording
Burn is a music experience...Some more informations . This is David Coverdale's era in vocals . A young David Coverdale the one who made a remarkable success with Whitesnake . But the high notes vocally belongs to their bassist at the time Glen Hughes .They harmonize extremely well of course. In the keyboards is the great Jon Lord . His secret, except that he was extremely skilled is that he used Marshall guitar amplifiers for his organ and that gave Deep Purple this unique sound. The great Ian Paice in drums one of the best drummers in rock music and finally Ritchie Blackmore of course in guitar who is considered one of the "guitar gods" and pushed the boundaries of his instrument at the time and influensed a lot of the next generation guitar players. Deep Purple considered one of the "Holy Trinity" of rock-hard rock-heavy metal music . The other two ? Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath .
The Late great Jon Lord on keyboards.. Ian Paice on drums, David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes vocals and yes the Great Ritchie Blackmoore on guitar.. Superband from england..
Yes indeed guys!!!. What you listen here is one of the most iconic USA instruments, played by their masters hands, first the one and only Fender Stratocaster by Ritchie Blackmore, matched to a Hammond B3 organ by the outstanding (RIP) Jon Douglas Lord. You also can check this band performing the song, the April 1974 California Jam as the opening show. You will get a lot of fun listening to this one, for sure.
Yes yes yes...David Coverdale( yes whitesnake founder), the God. Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord(best organist ever), Glenn Hughes. The GREATEST band EVER. I have close to 90cds from them.🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘. Again.. amazing choice.
I saw them perform this song live in 1972 at the Portland Colosseum. You are hearing Ritchie Blackmore on guitar, the absolute Godfather of neo-classical rock. And Jon Lord on the Hammond B-3 organ, who was the absolute unparalleled king of his instrument.
I would run into Glen Hughes every now and then. He lives close to my neck of the woods, he goes for a walk alot..super cool dude....sometimes id marvel how most ppl around has no idea theyr're in the presence of greatness and a rock legend!
Guys, you're listening to one of the three bands, along with Led Zep and Sabbath, that pioneered the hard rock/heavy metal genre. These guys, each in their own right, are considered among the best to EVER play their respective instruments. There are few bands in history more talented and influential than Purple. The lineup changed periodically, Coverdale was the lead vocal after Ian Gillan left (in fighting with Blackmore) and later Blackmore left and started Rainbow, with Ronnie James Dio on vocals. They later (early 80's) regrouped with Gillan back on vocals and made 2 more albums before permanently blowing the whole thing up. Purple did continue for many years with a variety of different pieces but the early 70's to the mid 80's were their best version of themselves. One of the Greats!
I believe it was more akin to something like the Salem Witch Trials. Deep Purple has so many great tunes with different lineups through the years but this is probably my favorite song they've recorded. The line up for this album was David Coverdale (now fronting his own band for years, Whitesnake) on lead vocals, Ritchie Blackmore on lead guitar, the late, Jom Lord on keyboards, Glenn Hughes on bass and vocals and Ian Paice on drums.
Early Uriah Heep had a lot of really good keyboard playing in it. They are keyboard players name was Ken hensley. Check out July Morning by Uriah heep.
AMEN!!!! Fantastic song…hell the whole album is fantastic and I hope you listen to more (lay down stay down, might just take your life, what goin on here…). Consider this. Prior to this, The band had just released their biggest album. The lead singer quits and they fire the bassist. For most bands that would be the end. They hire David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes snd out out THIS. Still my favorite DP album
If you don't know "Highway Star" by Deep Purple, there's an organ solo in it that I used to think was a guitar solo. There's an amazing guitar solo, too, of course. It's a good song to speed to... not that I am suggesting people speed. lol
How about a reaction to a Deep Purple contemporary, who was a guitarist in the same ranks as Clapton, Hendrix and Beck? That would be the phenomenal Rory Gallagher, the Irish guitar wizard. Check out any of The Old Grey Whistle Test videos for a sample of his amazing performances. He was an inspiration to current guitarists such as Slash, Alex Lifeson, Brian May, Joe Bonamassa, and many others. Legend gone too soon.
Don't call a witch devil a liar She'll make you burn with a wave of her hand and that's all you'll hear is BURN !! ...and there's no escape..Epic radio hit of 1974/75 !
This is what you get when REAL musicians come together ❣❣❣ Greatest organ player ever: John Lord R.I.P. My favourite gitarr player, one of the best ever: Ritchie Blackmore My favourite drummer, one of the best ever: Ian Paice My favourite singer, one of the best ever: David Coverdale My other favourite singer, one of the best ever Glen Hughes (also playing bas really well) Welcome to the greatest band in history!!
thanks for the reaction HEY a duo that is long overlooked. the Nicholas Brothers back in the 1940's These two dancers (with non other than CAB CALLAWAY doing the music) did a number that NO ONE will ever duplicate in one take. just look up " Jumpin Jive -Cab Calloway and the Nicholas Brothers " it will pop up right away , theres even a color version now. You'll say.."no way. They had to have practiced this!" Nope. They did it off the cuff. The tables and props were there, and they just did their thing!! AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!
Jon Lord (RIP) was one of the premier rock keyboardists ever to play.
The keyboards are incredible in so many Deep Purple songs, but especially this one. That solo at the end always gives me chills
Paganini's fingerprints are all over this song.

That's what gave him such a difficult reputation... despite being one of the greatest guitarists of all time, w/ his work in Deep Purple, Rainbow, and now Blackmore's Night.
There are videos of him just tearing it up live in concert... and there are other clips of him just standing around and barely playing guitar. Deep Purple's drummer Ian Paice called Blackmore a 'simple man' in many ways, but said he had a tendency to be offended or 'thrown off' by the smallest gestures or incidents that most people would just brush off. If Blackmore went on stage flustered, he would have a problem playing... and if he had a problem, the band had a problem.
In 1974, Deep Purple's massive show at Cal Jam festival was being filmed, and at one point, a cameraman got on Blackmore's nerves during the set and the guitarist destroyed the TV camera (which was an expensive piece of equipment back then).
CONGRATS on reaching 200K! 🎊 I know I’m usually late to get to your reactions but
I really enjoy them. Looking forward to the next goal. Btw I use the same headphones
as you do. The best without being that expensive.
I grew up listening to this genre of music I’ve just turned 62 and you both more than welcome to come to any party I have love your channel the nostalgia I have just off of what your reacting to is awesome so a huge thank you for Marion in Scotland 🏴 much love to you both
I saw this tour back in 1974 in a huge open air show in Hartford, CT, Elf and Ronnie James Dio opened eyes with their set, then Aerosmith kicked out some serious jams before Deep Purple came out and it was so loud they could have heard it in New Haven, Ritchie Blackmore was immense on thunderous lead guitar, I will never forget the solo in You Fool No One, check out their version at either the California Jam or Live In Europe, they are amazing. Also John Lord is top 5 keyboards ever! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎹🎶
Elf played at a party about a half mile from my home and I could hear it clear.
Jon Lord, the keyboardist, was one of the best in rock history. He, to me, was!!
Jon Lord also played the organ like that on Deep Purple's "Highway Star."
Love this track.
Deep Purple are famed for their catchy guitar riffs, complimentary keyboard and guitar solos all driven along to thumping drum beat and layered with fantastic rock vocals.
One of the greatest rock bands ever. Wanted to recommend the live version from the California jam concert. Not to be missed.
Deep Purple is one of the best rock band ever and Jon Lord playing Lazy is pure perfection.
Hi, thanks for checking out Deep Purple. One of my favorite bands. I've been watching you guys for a while now. Love your channel. Strange kind of woman, is another great song from them too.
as Tommy Bolin once said, Jon knew and could play anything. Ritchie and Jon we're classically trained as shown in this track and many others, including Rainbow. ( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)✌
Jon could play on organ anything Ritchie could play on guitar. Loved when they got into those "duels" outdoing each other...
Asia & BJ, their "Woman From Tokyo" is next for you! 201K...
Please do Perfect Strangers next! And be sure to watch 12 year old Yoyoko's video of her drumming to this song. Astounding!
I like, "hush", and "when a blind man cries". There are many other good songs as well.
Just another tune from DEEP PURPLE to show that they was the greatest hard rock band to ever play !!! Have you heard RAT BAT BLUE yet ???
Love Rat Bat Blue!!!
One of
Don't forget Van Halen.
"Perfect Strangers"
"Lazy"
"Highway Star"
Classic Purple
Got to watch the live version of this
California Jam 1974 !!
Ritchie Blackmore was great in developing riffs out of existing stuff;-) This one was inspired by George Gershwin...
Ritchie came up with some of the best riffs in his prime with Deep Purple ..Two vocalist here also David Coverdale and Glen Hughes
And it took both of them to fill Ian Gillan's shoes. Gillan has always been THE voice of Deep Purple.
Poor old Rod Evans 😔 (😉😊)
@@eddhardy1054 True.
Rod never had a chance, although it was "Hush" and "Kentucky Woman" that first grabbed my attention. However, the arrangements made those songs, not his voice.
@@bryansimmons4550 still a shame he's almost totally forgotten though
Yeah, Jon Lord & Richie Blackmore we're a great team. Deep Purple definitely one of my favorites 🎸🎹
I was thirteen years old when this album made me realize I liked hard rock.
Wow, same here. I was born five years after this album was released.
One of the most fun songs to drum to in the history of rock. Also, Blackmore said he was inspired to write this riff when he heard the Gershwin song 'Fascinating Rhythm'.
Actually, no. Lord know about "Fascinating Rhytm" but he told Jon that he never heard it when he wrote the riff. But subconscious he might have, as Jon always said : it has been done before.
Actually no. I saw Ritchie say in an interview that he wrote the riff after he heard Fascinating Rhythm. Now, he may have been lying through his teeth - he was a weasel, but that's what he said. If Jon said Ritchie told him he hadn't heard FR before writing the Riff, then I'm sure it's the truth - I trust Jon Lord more than Ritchie Blackmore. So what I suspect happened is that his inspiration was subliminal - after all, that song was woven into the cultural zeitgeist of our generation - but that later on Blackmore realized it sounded stupid when he denied the connection, so he 'adjusted' his story to make himself sound better? Smarter? More musically aware?
Actually, yes! I agree, Jon is much more trustworthy than Ritchie. Ritchie loves to say things to people that's untrue to see how they react and if they swallow it the more pleased Ritchie gets :-)
If you see then performing this song live at California Jam 1974, you'll have a lot of thrills
Fun fact....the lead singer on this track is David Coverdale who is also the singer for Whitesnake. 🤟🏻
The song is about withcraft. The people were going to burn a witch and she turned the tables on them by making everything burn. One of Deep Purple's finest jams. Ian Paice the drummer was called the 'Human Metronome"!
Paicey is one of rocks greatest swing drummers. Always loved his quick wrists, and constantly adding beautifully to the uniqueness of Purples’ sound.
@@ronaldelliott4373 Absolutely agree. I have been playing drums for over 60 years and at my best I could not play what he laid down on this song. And the live version is insane. And the opening to "You Fool No One" live-well, I bet in that entire lead in he never was off the beat. Not a lot of drummers could do that.
@@mikegershon8528 Right on Mike. As someone who has also been drumming for almost as long, I became a fast fan of DP and Paice. The only thing I have in common with Ian is we’re both lefty’s. “You Fool No One” is a incredible example of his talents and a personal favorite as well. Even his stamina today is shocking. Regards from a fellow traveler.
@@ronaldelliott4373 I had a feeling you were a drummer and that we were from roughly the same era. Not a lot of folks know what a swing beat is, and the comment about his wrists was a dead giveaway! Rock on, Ronald!
Classic track from a superb album..
Check out the incredible “ you fool no one “ ( stunning harmony lead vocals with Glenn Hughes) and “ sail away “
This is one of the few hard rock groups I enjoyed in the 60's-70's. You've done a few of their songs already. My favorites are their covers of Joe South's "Hush" & Neil Diamond's "Kentucky Woman". Also like "Lazy", "Woman From Tokyo", "Highway Star", "Fireball", "Speed King", "Space Truckin'", etc.
those truly were the days, weren't they? I sometimes wish I could hear all these songs again for the first time, sitting on the floor in my bedroom, stereo cranked, not a care in the world...Rock ON!
Flight Of The Rat.
Asia speaks likes she would have a brilliant singing voice. Her intonations and inflections are very musical in themselves. Love Purple. Take care both.
That's David Coverdale on vocals. Fantastic voice and Ego also. Later became world famous leading White Snake and the vicious song...Here i go again " and he did 😁
IAN PAICE on drums !!!!
worth watching Yoyoka on her youtube channel drumming along to this...jaw droppingly awesome
Please do “No no no- but the studio version please” and “Demons eye: also the studio version please” , i hate when people react to the DP live version as a 1st reaction cause the best is in their studio recording
Burn is a music experience...Some more informations . This is David Coverdale's era in vocals . A young David Coverdale the one who made a remarkable success with Whitesnake . But the high notes vocally belongs to their bassist at the time Glen Hughes .They harmonize extremely well of course. In the keyboards is the great Jon Lord . His secret, except that he was extremely skilled is that he used Marshall guitar amplifiers for his organ and that gave Deep Purple this unique sound. The great Ian Paice in drums one of the best drummers in rock music and finally Ritchie Blackmore of course in guitar who is considered one of the "guitar gods" and pushed the boundaries of his instrument at the time and influensed a lot of the next generation guitar players. Deep Purple considered one of the "Holy Trinity" of rock-hard rock-heavy metal music . The other two ? Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath .
The Late great Jon Lord on keyboards.. Ian Paice on drums, David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes vocals and yes the Great Ritchie Blackmoore on guitar.. Superband from england..
Saw them in concert 2x's at Pirate's World in Florida back in the early 70's with Quick Silver Messenger Service; great concerts.
Yes indeed guys!!!. What you listen here is one of the most iconic USA instruments, played by their masters hands, first the one and only Fender Stratocaster by Ritchie Blackmore, matched to a Hammond B3 organ by the outstanding (RIP) Jon Douglas Lord. You also can check this band performing the song, the April 1974 California Jam as the opening show. You will get a lot of fun listening to this one, for sure.
This album is great.. I wish I still had it... you know what... I'm going out to buy or order this album again..
Saw them in the 70’s at The Long Beach Arena. Loudest Concert Ever!!! And I’ve seen over 100🤙🏽👍🏽😎
Congrats on 200,000!!
I admire everything, both the personal deep purple, the recording technician and the creation of this song.
I love Classical music and I love Rock; this track just fills the soul.......💕💕
two vocals, incredible this phase!
Yes yes yes...David Coverdale( yes whitesnake founder), the God. Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord(best organist ever), Glenn Hughes. The GREATEST band EVER. I have close to 90cds from them.🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘. Again.. amazing choice.
Yes DP mark 3 were great, sorry but DP mark 2 were the Bees knees.
@@davidmorgan5312 absolutely no doubt. Totally agree 100%. But I absolutely love the song stormbringer from 1975. I actually have that on purple vinyl
My favorite DP cut is old school Joe South song: "Hush". Also sang by Billy Joe Royal, but Purple does a fire version
You need to watch this track live on California jam 1974...
Jon Lord set the organ on 🔥 fire... Not your typical church music huh!!! This is rock at its best ...Love you guys...
It was about Middle- Ages and burning witches. By the way Ian Paice is the Drummer. Richie Blackmore always said "Ian Paice is the Motor of the Band".
Deep purple c est immense 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👍👍👍
How many songs have a drum solo going on behind every set of lyrics? What a masterful song.
DEEP PURPLE IS AMAZING!!!!
The Live at California Jam 1974 video of this is a must watch. One of those epic Live performances.
I saw them perform this song live in 1972 at the Portland Colosseum. You are hearing Ritchie Blackmore on guitar, the absolute Godfather of neo-classical rock. And Jon Lord on the Hammond B-3 organ, who was the absolute unparalleled king of his instrument.
Got to admit I never knew they performed the song before it was actually written...Jeez that's how f*cking good Purple were 😉😊
@@eddhardy1054 Oops, typo. I meant '74. Still have the ticket stub. ELO opened.
@@phoenixmichaels no worries mate, I thought it might be something like that. ELO are another cracking band 🥰🥰🥰
I would run into Glen Hughes every now and then. He lives close to my neck of the woods, he goes for a walk alot..super cool dude....sometimes id marvel how most ppl around has no idea theyr're in the presence of greatness and a rock legend!
Guys, you're listening to one of the three bands, along with Led Zep and Sabbath, that pioneered the hard rock/heavy metal genre. These guys, each in their own right, are considered among the best to EVER play their respective instruments. There are few bands in history more talented and influential than Purple. The lineup changed periodically, Coverdale was the lead vocal after Ian Gillan left (in fighting with Blackmore) and later Blackmore left and started Rainbow, with Ronnie James Dio on vocals. They later (early 80's) regrouped with Gillan back on vocals and made 2 more albums before permanently blowing the whole thing up. Purple did continue for many years with a variety of different pieces but the early 70's to the mid 80's were their best version of themselves. One of the Greats!
No mater what version of "purple" - always amazing!!!!
I believe it was more akin to something like the Salem Witch Trials.
Deep Purple has so many great tunes with different lineups through the years but this is probably my favorite song they've recorded. The line up for this album was David Coverdale (now fronting his own band for years, Whitesnake) on lead vocals, Ritchie Blackmore on lead guitar, the late, Jom Lord on keyboards, Glenn Hughes on bass and vocals and Ian Paice on drums.
I call this a drum solo with vocals and guitar thrown in.
Ian Paice was the man.
Not A Drum Solo With Vocals and Music Just Phenomenal Drumming !! They Are Called Drum Fill's !!
@@skiptowne5724 In 85 I watched Ian play a solo that lasted somewhere from 15-20 minutes. It was wonderful.
Early Uriah Heep had a lot of really good keyboard playing in it. They are keyboard players name was Ken hensley. Check out July Morning by Uriah heep.
You're right Heap absolutely
Yes .🎹🎶🎶🎶🎶
AMEN!!!! Fantastic song…hell the whole album is fantastic and I hope you listen to more (lay down stay down, might just take your life, what goin on here…). Consider this. Prior to this, The band had just released their biggest album. The lead singer quits and they fire the bassist. For most bands that would be the end. They hire David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes snd out out THIS. Still my favorite DP album
You are among the few reactors and their audience who know what a riff Is 👍
If you don't know "Highway Star" by Deep Purple, there's an organ solo in it that I used to think was a guitar solo. There's an amazing guitar solo, too, of course. It's a good song to speed to... not that I am suggesting people speed. lol
Glad you guys liked this one. There are a couple of live versions you can view that really lay it down. Try the Whitesnake live in london.
How about a reaction to a Deep Purple contemporary, who was a guitarist in the same ranks as Clapton, Hendrix and Beck? That would be the phenomenal Rory Gallagher, the Irish guitar wizard. Check out any of The Old Grey Whistle Test videos for a sample of his amazing performances. He was an inspiration to current guitarists such as Slash, Alex Lifeson, Brian May, Joe Bonamassa, and many others. Legend gone too soon.
Jon Lord was always my favorite keyboardist,So Good
Don't call a witch devil a liar She'll make you burn with a wave of her hand and that's all you'll hear is BURN !! ...and there's no escape..Epic radio hit of 1974/75 !
This is what you get when REAL musicians come together ❣❣❣
Greatest organ player ever: John Lord R.I.P.
My favourite gitarr player, one of the best ever: Ritchie Blackmore
My favourite drummer, one of the best ever: Ian Paice
My favourite singer, one of the best ever: David Coverdale
My other favourite singer, one of the best ever Glen Hughes (also playing bas really well)
Welcome to the greatest band in history!!
Ritchie Blackmore is a guitar God.
The late great JON LORD on hammond organ 🤘🏻excellent reaction guys 👍🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
The first solo is a guitar brother , the great Ritchie Blackmore
The great Deep Purple! Possibly Steven King's inspiration for "The Firestarter"
thanks for the reaction
HEY a duo that is long overlooked. the Nicholas Brothers back in the 1940's
These two dancers (with non other than CAB CALLAWAY doing the music) did a number that NO ONE will ever duplicate in one take.
just look up " Jumpin Jive -Cab Calloway and the Nicholas Brothers " it will pop up right away , theres even a color version now. You'll say.."no way. They had to have practiced this!" Nope. They did it off the cuff. The tables and props were there, and they just did their thing!!
AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!
That's Jon Lord on the mighty Hammond B3, and yes, you won't hear much of anyone else rocking it like that!
