Except original keyboardist (Jon Lord) who passed on about 12 years ago, most of the originals (Mark III Lineup) are still playing today. Roger Glover (Bassist), Ian Paice (drums), and Ian Gillan (singer) are still in Deep Purple while original guitarist, Ritchie Blackmore is still doing his own solo band and his other band, Rainbow. All of them including Mark IV members, Glenn Hughes, Bassist and David Coverdale singer (They replaced Roger and Ian Gillan after Ritchie fired them) were inducted into Rock Hall of Fame. Speaking of Coverdale, he is retiring from touring after his own band, Whitesnake is finishing touring.
Momma Gap notice the audience being quiet. Reason is that this clip was from a live show. Live shows back then like today has rules for the audience when event is broadcasted on a network. Now, live events are delayed few seconds just in case of miscues, bad words, and wardrobe malfunctions.
It's about Vietnam . A lullaby for the people and soldiers there in the war . Nice to see you ladies enjoying one of the most exceptional performances ever caught on film .
No fué para Vietnam...es contra la guerra en general. En esa época, también por la guerra fría. Deep Purple es un grupo británico, de la "trinidad", junto a Led Zeppelin y Black Sabbath. Influenciáron a muchísimas bandas, entre ellas, a Iron Maiden y Metallica 😊
actually at that time in europe, we were attentively listening (to music and words), then cheering. it was meant to be polite. especially in classical music you´re not supposed to utter a single sound, to this day. that being said, this is 1970. deep purple, led zeppelin, black sabbath, uriah heep originated about that year. so, people were exposed to what was to become heavy rock for the first time.
Child in time is about the young kids sent the Vietnamese war and alot was conscripted it's actually a very haunting song the screams in the song are about the pain and agony the boys/men went through
This was always billed as an anti war song. My husband served in Vietnam along with two of his friends and he told me once all the the energy expended in the song sounded like the chaos that was war. Fortunately, they all came back alive. He saw them back in the day right after he came back from overseas and together we saw them a few years ago outside of Houston where we now live. Ian Gilliam is the frontman once again but at his age he cannot hit the notes he used to. No matter, we thoroughly enjoyed the concert! And yes the audience was told to be quiet because they were taping and this was in Sweden.
Your comment around 11:11 about the audience: as far as I know, this performance was recorded 1970 in a BBC TV studio. Those were still the early days of Heavy Metal. A lot of folks in the audience, especially the older ones, didn't know what to think; I guess they were stunned into silence. Reminds me of "2Cellos - Thunderstruck (Official Video)" on TH-cam. Worth checking out. Love your reaction and comments. Thanks!
Deep Purple is one of the greatest ensembles of talent you could put together in one band, with each of them feeding of the other’s energy to give their best performance.
Waktu q umur 10 tahun denger lagu ini,,, pas lagi main gundu.. Reflex badan q goyang2.. Ikutin irama nya?.. Pas q umur 17tahun baru tau klo lagu ini dari band legend deep purple,,, semenjak itu q mengidolakannya terutama gitaris ritchie blackmore... ! Woowww... Sweet memory..???!!!😊😊😊
Deep Purple in Rock was my 2nd Rock Album. They became my favorite band. I saw them in concert many times. I lived in Germany and they were there often. I bet that crowd was German.
The show was meant to be part of a radio show, and in that era you were told to stay as quiet as possible. You will see crowds reacting to a lot of different bands the same way in that era.
Reminds me of old Jimi Hendrix live concert recordings. The wildest, most infectious, most high-energy music is playing and the audience is dead quiet until the song is over. Then everyone politely claps and maybe someone will whistle. I think people just hadn't learned how to react to that kind of music yet back then.
The song was about the Cold War. The late-great Jon Lord on the Hammond organ; Ritchie Blackmore on guitar; Ian Gillan on vocals; Ian Paice on drums; Roger Glover on bass. They stopped playing this song years ago. At Ian's advanced age now, it's too difficult to hit the high notes; at least, without throwing his voice out for a week. That video was recorded more than 50 years ago, but Purple are still touring and recording as of 2023.
This band is full of rock gods. One of my all time favorite bands. Ritchie Blackmore guitar, John😢 Lord keyboard, Ian Gillan vocals, Ian Paice drummer Roger Glover bass ❤❤
This was filmed to be used as a promo, and the audience were told to keep it low. Quite common at the time. Seeing Deep Purple live at a concert in the seventies, that was a whole other thing.
the best live video ever recorded of the best live band in rock history. For those discovering them now ... I recommend the live Made In Japan, but and especially because it is the best live performed by Deep Purple: Live in Stockholm 1970. To say they are insane is an understatement. No one has ever managed to mix hard rock, jazz and classical music as well as they did.
This was a TV recording for a programme called “Doing Their Thing”. It is (or was) available on DVD. It’s about 35 minutes long and it chops some songs because Purple songs of that era were very long and involved a lot of improvisation. I have a 17 minute live version. They are incredible musicians.
@@yanki198 I read up on mandrake, via Lewis Carroll, but i've never heard the song. Will tune in to it, and who knows, turn on mr Leary's sentiments !!
So glad you enjoyed this classic hard rock song. Ian’s vocals are otherworldly. I also wanted to wish you a belated congrats on your subscriber milestone!
I think someone is going to every music reaction channel and requesting this song to be reacted to. But it is with good reason. I knew of Deep Purple since I was maybe 10 years old in 1985. I never heard this song until 2006 when I was 31 which is a crying shame. This is the most underrated track in all of recorded music history
And that was 1970 Live NO Amplifier or Synthesizer Voice Enhancement one of those, just what you see pure Talent on all Levels. This was the Time, when was still pure and a great Voice was a great Voice like Ian Gillian. The only thing i always asked myself, how t the People could sit so calm, no Movement or Excitement but then Live Auditions where held, in Big Stadiums as well as in little Music Shows, so that the Audience could nearly touch the Performers. Thank God i could be a part of that Time and Thank You both for listening to another Masterpiece and Great Band. Kudos
Thank you Ralph! I agree, so surprised to see the crowd very calm. I understand they were told to do that, but I wouldn’t have been able to stay still!
@@generationgapreacts Sometimes they record shows like these and don't want all the background noise. The Beatles stopped touring because they couldn't hear themselves on stage.
Deep Purple were part of a rock trifecta. There are three rock bands that are considered the pioneers of heavy metal. They are Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple. All 3 groups came along around the same time and influenced all heavy metal rock bands that came after them. "Child In Time" is one of Deep Purple's best songs. For another Deep Purple suggestion, you should try "Smoke On The Water". It is their most popular song and a rock classic.
Agreed. They should listen to the Live version of Smoke on the Water from Made in Japan. One of the most powerhouse live performances ever for my $$$. 🔥🔥
Great reaction guys...Glad you enjoyed it... I have just been to see Deep Purple 2 weeks back Live in Manchester UK.... 4 original members, SINGER, DRUMMER, KEYS and BASS player, and these guys ROCKED it... It blew me away !! Drummer is 73 ! and Singer a bit older and MY GOD, the power and energy of the show was outstanding...
@@wolfgangwalk337 Yeah, it was Don Airey, i couldnt remember before as i was at work, and the name sliped my mind... Don has been with them since 2002.. still at the age of 74, amazing stuff from them..
Thank you very much for reviewing this song. Deep Purple were very big here in the UK in the first half of the 1970s. Most people probably know them because of "smoke on the water". However, "child in time" has always been my favourite track of their's. I think it really shows off the capabilities of the whole band, particularly Ian Gillan on vocals, but also the excellence of Jon Lord on the keyboards, Richie Blackmore on lead guitar, Roger Glover on bass and Ian Paice on drums. In the UK at that time Deep Purple were thought of as part of a holy trinity of rock bands comprising of Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. Some would argue that Uriah Heep were also worthy of consideration to make it a foursome. The Deep Purple lineup in this video (Gillan, Blackmore, Paice, Lord and Glover) is my favourite. The band continues to perform today and three members of that 1970 lineup are there now - Ian Gillan (lead singer), Ian Paice (drummer) and Roger Glover (bass player). Very glad that you both liked the song.
Hi ladies - in this song the "legendary Hammond organ" is used - which is characterized by the fact that rotating speakers are installed in the cabinet. It produces that wonderful tremmolo sound. By the way, this organ is also played in a song you have already watched - "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" by and with Gary Brooker (RIP) and Prokol Harum in the OpenAir with the Danish National Orchestra.
Deep Purple was one of the premier hard rock bands of it's day and some call them the first heavy metal band. In any case they were a big part of my teenage and early adults years. Great memories.
Classic song, classic band with the classic line-up. Ian Gillan, best wail and wounded moan in rock (by the way, he was Jesus in the original-and by far the best-recording of Jesus Christ Superstar. Another Deep Purple video I love is their Beat Club performance of “Highway Star”-the song was still not completely fleshed out at that point, but the performance is all gloriously raw, electric energy…
OMG. OMG. I never knew that!!! I absolutely loved that movie with him as lead for JC! Now I recognize the voice!!! Amazing talent - some acting & incredible artist. Ladies, I recommend you watch that version of JCSS. All the music in it is phenomenal - by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Excellent movie. 😍😍😍
Deep Purple is one of the best bands ever and at one time had the record for the loudest band. Ritchie Blackmore is my favorite guitarist and Ian Paice is my favorite drummer.
You are getting better and better at pausing at the right times Ladies ! YES, that audience WAS told to sit still and politely clap at the end...lol I had a fantastic few Concert going years in my Hometown of London in the early 1970s and saw both Deep Purple and the following week: Creedence Clearwater Revival at The World famous: Royal Albert Hall in South West London with 5,000 others on each occasion and as both Gigs sold out, they let us in "Up In The Gods" for 25 PENCE or 34 CENTS....😀
@@generationgapreacts Hi. Thanks . It's 3.25am in London. I can do better than that ! I, also, saw Pink Floyd ' debut:"Dark Side Of The Moon" with 18,000 others @ Earls Court, South West London, and they, outrageously, charged £1 or $1.34 and that Album broke the USA record for being in The Billboard "Top 200" for 14 successive years. ,lol and had a ticket for Led Zeppelin @ Wembley Arena in North West London for 75 PENCE so 4 World Class Groups in major London venues for £2.25 or $3 in 4 separate gigs. Downside? I'm 68 😥
I loved deep purple in my teens they had been going a long time then. I drove my mum mad with this song. I had all their albums, I think at this time they were more popular over here in the uk🇬🇧
Is an electric guitar still a guitar? It has its acoustic resonance and amplification sound box replaced by an almost dead board but uses induction-based pickups to feed the string's vibrations into an amplifier. I am inclined to still call the electric guitar a guitar. This Hammond C-3 Jon Lord put through an overdriven Marshall stack to fit in with Deep Purple's hard rock sound [wiki]. Tone generation - as in "synthesis" - in the C-3 is in an electro-mechanic way that is mechanically more complex than a church organ. It even needs lubrication that must frequently be topped up. There are no mechanical vibrations that are picked up and amplified. Here I am inclined to reject saying it IS an organ. That said, Jon Lord with his e-organ and classical deep music education, may have been the biggest influence musically in the incarnations of this group, and may have had a powerful vote in reviewing candidates to be admitted into the group.
Everyone is surprised by the behavior of the audience. Please remember that this kind of music was revolutionary at the time. The audience was well-mannered people who may have never been to a rock concert before. They behaved seriously, as if at a symphony concert. There are plenty of videos of Deep Purple concerts where the audience goes wild. The lyrics were written by singer Ian Gilan, who also performed on Broadway in the musical Jesus Christus Super Star and is considered the best in this role. Child In Time for me is the greatest rock song ever with prophetic lyrics predicting the present times
I commented on the audience on another reaction vid, and apparently they were told to keep perfectly still and quiet out of respect. And yeah, the song is reported to be about Vietnam specifically, and war and suffering in general.
Great reaction to an amazing song. I'm so glad you DID rewind it a little bit after pausing. You are so right to recognize the iomportance of doing so. I think you said "you neve know if it's going to be paused at an awkward spot." So (TOO!) many reactors pause and say their thing (which is fine--we like the commentary, for sure!) but then go RIGHT BACK into it. SO many cool transitions, crucial words, great fluidities are missed by doing this. Audiences are like "D'oh! NO!" So good on y'all!
I saw this lineup (MKII my favorite lineup) 5x in NYC, Ian Gillan (vocalist) always introduced this song as their slowest fastest song. Even back then it was evident that Ian & Richie Blackmore (guitarist) didn't like each other. Interesting side note was that each time Fleetwood Mac (with Bob Welch & Danny Kirwan, before Lindsay & Stevie joined because Bob & Danny were no longer with the band) was the warm-up band for them. Great shows. About the audience, I think this was recorded in Europe, but in America we also didn't often get too rowdy till the song ended, mainly because we were high (you would get a contact high just breathing the air).
I think the audience were so in shock from the brilliance of the performance that they couldn't move. That's the only reason I can come up for their reaction, or lack thereof, I should say.
I don’t know if you have heard of Deep Purple but together with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin in the three years around 69 to 72 were held as the Gods of Heavy Rock everything heavy rock started with them!!! Cheers Girls Enjoy
When I saw them in concert in 1974 trust me no one was sitting quietly. We always sat or stood up to the stage by the band and rocked out with them. You could get close to the stage then. They performed for the joy of it not just to make the almighty dollar. That's why tickets weren't expensive. Anyone could afford to go.
Got goosebumps when i first bought in rock in 1970 i was 12 am 65 now still get goosebumps
Me too dude!😊👍
Always surprised that a band that was so huge in the 70s, that has sold 150 million albums is unknown.

This song like others of 60's Generation was anti-war song on Vietnam War. Deep Purple members are from the UK seeing the carnage in Vietnam.

The golden age of music.

Amazing song this live version is better than the album version
Deep Purple truly Amazing band glad you liked it
Everytime someone tells me he/she never heard of Deep Purple i'm thinking like "did you lived under a stone?"
But at least you fixed that now.
I grew up with my mom listening to Motown, so deep purple wasn’t exactly the style of music I had ever heard before.
Certainly one of the iconic bands to come out of the late 60's with each position legendary. Crowd was told to be quiet for the filming.
Well we'll well welcome you to the world of Deep Purple !

@@kevinmclaughlin1092 And my intro to heavy music in general.
Lot's of great memories from my early years. The music from that time was as good as it got in my opinion.
Heavy metal has a completely different feel to heavy rock. Not the same at all.
The keyboard was an Hammond organ played by none other than the late Jon Lord, who is probably the greatest player of his generation!
One of the best bands of all time, I saw them live 3 times in the 70s. Brilliant. Try my personal favourite "Fireball".

I, also, saw Pink Floyd ' debut:"Dark Side Of The Moon" with 18,000 others @ Earls Court, South West London, and they, outrageously, charged £1 or $1.34 and that Album broke the USA record for being in The Billboard "Top 200" for 14 successive years. ,lol and had a ticket for Led Zeppelin @ Wembley Arena in North West London for 75 PENCE so 4 World Class Groups in major London venues for £2.25 or $3 in 4 separate gigs. Downside? I'm 68 😥
@@Isleofskye You are so lucky to see so many fantastic concerts. I’m jealous!!! 😃❤️😊
I'm "Space Truckin' " again!
I saw these guys live, probably around '74 ? Great show. I remember they were billed as the loudest band in rock and roll!
Well, more than this guys you saw.. coverdale, hughes and then the rest, of that guys!
Deep purple 💜 😍 ♥️ 👌 💕 ❤️ 💜
5 really skilled músicians
Ok i'll give you that one. good reaction.
ha, ha, ha a new generation....this was my youth 50 years ago...
Looking forward to your next song request livestream show! The last ones were a lot of fun and enjoyed hearing some new and different music
I saw them live in a Summer Jam In the late 70’s at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City! Great reaction 🔥❤️☮️👵🏼
Together with zeppelin and sabbath one of the greatest 70s bands! The great
Agreed! We have really been enjoying these bands
I loved deep purple in my teens they had been going a long time then. I drove my mum mad with this song. I had all their albums, I think at this time they were more popular over here in the uk🇬🇧
You two are amazing!!
Thank you Hilda!!
I grew up with Purple zeppelin sabbath great music and stands the test of time.
Sabbath is another great band we haven't dived into yet.
Oh, see if you can find the tribute to Jon Lord, you'll both love that!
This was filmed for a TV broadcast by the BBC - the crowd was specifically told to keep quiet and not to dance.
Excellent choice! Loving these reactions!
Woohoo thank you for watching again Gfink :)
Highway Star. Another one of their songs. You two will enjoy. Promise. 🙂
Keyboard sounds like an organ because it IS an organ.... other than that, GREAT reaction, ladies!
Is an electric guitar still a guitar? It has its acoustic resonance and amplification sound box replaced by an almost dead board but uses induction-based pickups to feed the string's vibrations into an amplifier. I am inclined to still call the electric guitar a guitar.
This Hammond C-3 Jon Lord put through an overdriven Marshall stack to fit in with Deep Purple's hard rock sound [wiki].
Tone generation - as in "synthesis" - in the C-3 is in an electro-mechanic way that is mechanically more complex than a church organ. It even needs lubrication that must frequently be topped up. There are no mechanical vibrations that are picked up and amplified. Here I am inclined to reject saying it IS an organ.
That said, Jon Lord with his e-organ and classical deep music education, may have been the biggest influence musically in the incarnations of this group, and may have had a powerful vote in reviewing candidates to be admitted into the group.
Everyone is surprised by the behavior of the audience. Please remember that this kind of music was revolutionary at the time. The audience was well-mannered people who may have never been to a rock concert before. They behaved seriously, as if at a symphony concert. There are plenty of videos of Deep Purple concerts where the audience goes wild. The lyrics were written by singer Ian Gilan, who also performed on Broadway in the musical Jesus Christus Super Star and is considered the best in this role. Child In Time for me is the greatest rock song ever with prophetic lyrics predicting the present times
Me and my sister used to dance like crazy to this! Tanx👍🏻
Some of the greatest musicians ever. Ian Gillians voice is amazing. I think this was a TV production.
I commented on the audience on another reaction vid, and apparently they were told to keep perfectly still and quiet out of respect. And yeah, the song is reported to be about Vietnam specifically, and war and suffering in general.
Amazing song & performance, great reaction too, loved it 😊
hehehe..."the keyboard sounds like an organ" ...that's because it is an organ :)
Fantastic 🤘
Great reaction to an amazing song. I'm so glad you DID rewind it a little bit after pausing. You are so right to recognize the iomportance of doing so. I think you said "you neve know if it's going to be paused at an awkward spot." So (TOO!) many reactors pause and say their thing (which is fine--we like the commentary, for sure!) but then go RIGHT BACK into it. SO many cool transitions, crucial words, great fluidities are missed by doing this. Audiences are like "D'oh! NO!" So good on y'all!
I was fortunate enough to see Deep Purple in concert twice in Germany in the early and mid 70s. the crowd was nothing like this tv placid version
I saw this lineup (MKII my favorite lineup) 5x in NYC, Ian Gillan (vocalist) always introduced this song as their slowest fastest song. Even back then it was evident that Ian & Richie Blackmore (guitarist) didn't like each other. Interesting side note was that each time Fleetwood Mac (with Bob Welch & Danny Kirwan, before Lindsay & Stevie joined because Bob & Danny were no longer with the band) was the warm-up band for them. Great shows. About the audience, I think this was recorded in Europe, but in America we also didn't often get too rowdy till the song ended, mainly because we were high (you would get a contact high just breathing the air).
Es deep purple amiga querida! Disfrútalo!
a brilliant opening analysis by this lady to one of the great songs of the last century
You know the "keyboard" sounded like an organ because it was an organ!
Im a very early 60's baby and Deep Purple was awesome......Bong toke!
I think the audience were so in shock from the brilliance of the performance that they couldn't move. That's the only reason I can come up for their reaction, or lack thereof, I should say.
I don’t know if you have heard of Deep Purple but together with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin in the three years around 69 to 72 were held as the Gods of Heavy Rock everything heavy rock started with them!!!
Cheers Girls Enjoy
Great British band my fav as a schoolboy.
When I saw them in concert in 1974 trust me no one was sitting quietly. We always sat or stood up to the stage by the band and rocked out with them. You could get close to the stage then. They performed for the joy of it not just to make the almighty dollar. That's why tickets weren't expensive. Anyone could afford to go.
