Ned from Spain here. As a drummer this is at the top of my cover tune wish list. The problem is finding a band who can rock and lock in like that. These days no one wants to do the simple things like digging in deep and working that brutal groove. Pacey is forever awesome, everyone plays so well, the recording is slightly over the red line and Gillans lyrics and delivery are spot on, funny and the absolute truth. A BANGER !
And here we are today, 2024, and Purple is still out there on the road touring, and recently released their 23rd studio album “= 1” (equals one). Lot of great tracks on the new album too. As for the Fireball album, still one of my favourites, right up there with In Rock and Machine head. Cheers,
When I was 16, my introduction to rock music was when I bought Machine Head. And Made In Japan. They’re all I know of Deep Purple. No One Came is a rockin’ one.
ian Gillan once said that this was his favorite DP album because it is their most versatile one. For exact that reason it is my favorite, too. Or with other words: Mr. Gillan has an excellent taste.
One of my favorite, if not the best, Deep Purple hard rockin songs. My favorite album; you should listen to it from start to finish. Thanks again for widening your horizons and spreading the love 🙏🏼
This is by no means a funk song, but the members of Deep Purple in the early 70s had a knack for funky playing (and this was long before Glenn Hughes, David Coverdale or Tommy Bolin got involved with Purple). Ritchie Blackmore, who always said he didn't like funk, was instinctively funky in his playing (helped by Jon Lord, who was no slouch in that department!). Great track!
FINALLY!!! Been waiting for this forever. A great song. Brilliant lyrics about a fading rock star wondering if it was all worth it. This was the last song done by the Mark II line up, before their brief reunion later on. A song I just want to hear over and over.
I absolutely agree with you about the song, but it wasn't the last one Mark II did before the '84 reunion. You seem to have forgotten 'Machine Head' from '72, 'Made In Japan' from '72 and "Who Do We Think We Are' from '73. Usually It's the Fireball-Album that people seem to forget 😅
Superb song, and while the entire band are awesome and the solos are perfect, the most striking thing about it, I think, is how Ian Gillan manages to take a step back and observe/analyze the makings of fame and stardom in rock and show business, and how Rock'n'roll mythologizes downfall and careers that ended much too soon: "I've come and I've gone in the blink of an eye/ no one even cared enough to say goodbye" - but the ending still suggests that the guy in the lyrics lives on as one of those mythic rock stars, one of the "27 Club" perhaps? Gillan wasn't even 25 years old at the time and he and the band were on a bolt upright path to worldwide fame, but he was still able to take a calm look at the way this kind of fame works sometimes, behind the scenes - I find that so very impressive! :) The question he is asking from the start is "How much of yourself, of your own truth, can you get through to the public as a rock singer star? - and who decides whether you'll even get tp have a chance of doing it?". It's a kind of parallel to what Bowie did soon after on the Ziggy Stardust album.
If you are a drummer there are not many better drummers to get inspiration from than Ian Pace, the man knew groove, not to mention fast hands. Pictures of home is one of the best drum intros ever.
I remember years ago one night jamming tunes that by the time I got to this one I had it cranked up so loud, this one brought the cops out! I remember telling them I just wanted to FEEL it! What a jam.
Lee, I looked to see what Purple songs you did so far. The drum cover for Child In Time, really. Dude, you have to go & listen to Deep Purple's live version from Made In Japan or there's video from 1971 I believe that's them performing it live. I'm telling, every person I see react to this is blown away. Ian Gillian's vocals are just amazing.
Wow coincidence. I was just watching Ian Pace (drummer) this morning in that concert McCartney did at the Cavern club in 1999. (Also had Mick Green Paul Wingfield and David Gilmour)
An overlooked Deep Purple song, there are quite a few of those, that I like a lot. An amazing groove, and possibly the most interesting set of lyrics Ian Gillan ever wrote. For someone still so early in his success to be able to cast such a cynical eye over the music business, it's no wonder he fell out with Deep Purple's management. Other Deep Purple songs to check out: You Fool No One, Why Didn't Rosemary.
There are at least five songs better or than this on on the album, so you are in for a real treat if you like this one and persist with the album you are in for a real treat. In my humble opinion :) Fools and Demons Eye are the top tracks.
L33: Well, well, is it great to see you get pulled in to this riptide of a groove from the greatest album this band ever made. And before Epic by Faith No More, before Walk This Way by Aerosmith and Run DMC, even before the original 1975 recording of Walk This Way, look what Deep Purple does in 1971: give us the first marriage of hard rock and rap before rap even existed. Add my voice to the strong suggestions you check out this entire album. Chills!
Awesome reaction dude. This is one of their most overlooked albums next to Come Taste the Band. You should definitely check out the video of Mandrake Root live in London 1970. You can almost hear the foundation of speed metal being laid. Jon Lord's organ solos were just as meaty as any guitar solo.
Well i think this song is class! Funny lyrics great sound track great lp. As for bowie lp you gotta lissten to david live double lp absolute classic, on par with lou reed live for guitar work
For more amazing Paice, Blackmore, Lord, Glover, and Gillan, listen to the STUDIO version of "No, No, No." (The live version on German TV that's around is too goofy.) For context, it's a finger-pointing song at their management, with that aspect encrypted in the lyrics.
You really need to check out the songs Fireball and NO. No. No from this same cd "Fireball". The drumming in the song Fireball will be like a religious experience for you and the song No, No, No is just a really great song. Check it out. You won't be disappointed. Kurt from Maine
The organ solo at the end sounds like it’s played backwards. What Jon Lord did was record a solo on tape, cut the tape up in bits, piece it back together in random order and play it.
It's a piano solo and it wasn't cut into bits and pieced back together in random order. Just the whole thing played backwards, and it amazingly fit the track perfectly on the first try. th-cam.com/video/kbQVDYRob3Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=euEez4c1vZw7RIEk
If I told the truth and nothing but the truth, could I ever be a star.

Highly overlooked album by Deep Purple. Title song is a freight train.
Fact!
And here we are today, 2024, and Purple is still out there on the road touring, and recently released their 23rd studio album “= 1” (equals one).
Lot of great tracks on the new album too.

THAT DRIVING BASS GUITAR N BASS DRUM …. MY GOD WHAT POWER
NOW I GOTTA GO LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM. 💪🏻 THEN FOLLOW UP WITH… RAT BAT BLUE. ROCK ON 👊🖖
Another classic Deep Purple song !
Been a fan since the 70’s. This is a great album!
Black Sabbath,Led Zeppelin,Deep Purple the holy triad of rock music🤘
When I was 16, my introduction to rock music was when I bought Machine Head. And Made In Japan. They’re all I know of Deep Purple.
No One Came is a rockin’ one.

GREAT TUNEEEE!!!!!!!! FIREBALL THE KING OF PURPLE DEEP CUTS, PLEASE REACT ALL ALBUM.

Fools, Fireball, Demon’s Eye, The Mule, No No No … you will not be disappointed
Fools 💥🔥🔥😎
The entire album!!
Great song and reaction!
More from this Album
Fools, Fireball, Demon’s Eye, The Mule, No No No … you will not be disappointed
'The Mule' from the Fireball album and 'You Fool No One' from burn are 'THE' tracks for drums.
Ian Pace is and still a top 10 drummer in the world. In his prime he's in the same conversation of the great bonzo. He was a top 3 drummer.
SIN DUDAS PAICE EN SU APOGEO ERA UNA BESTIA!!!💜💜🔥🔥🎸🎸
One of my favorite, if not the best, Deep Purple hard rockin songs. My favorite album; you should listen to it from start to finish. Thanks again for widening your horizons and spreading the love 🙏🏼
Effin' awesome solos by RB and JL.
No one came, a beautiful made fun highly instrumental song, very unique love it !
"Woman From Tokyo".
Since you did this one, you gotta do "No No No" 🔥🔥🔥
Beat Club top performance
Yes! Then get on to Who Do We Think We Are and do Stand In Line. Purple's best tracks were never on radio....
Yes the beat club is a bit slower but heavier!!!!!!!!!
What a great Deep Purple pick! My favorite track from this album is The Mule. I also recommend Rat Bat Blue from their album Who Do We Think We Are!
One of my first rock band loves! Fantastic pick, Kristian! Ty!
Love to see you getting a bit of the beaten path - so many gems in their catalog.
Many bands would have killed for a song and a sound like that, and they ended the album with it!
LOVE the deep tracks! You should check out "Hard Lovin' Man" from their In Rock album - killer stuff
Fireball is a great album! No One Came is one of the best songs on a bloody good album. Where's my Robin Hood outfit? ....
This is by no means a funk song, but the members of Deep Purple in the early 70s had a knack for funky playing (and this was long before Glenn Hughes, David Coverdale or Tommy Bolin got involved with Purple). Ritchie Blackmore, who always said he didn't like funk, was instinctively funky in his playing (helped by Jon Lord, who was no slouch in that department!). Great track!
Fireball was a great album--- I need to respin this one soon! Thanks for the reminder,Lee...rock on! T
FINALLY!!! Been waiting for this forever. A great song. Brilliant lyrics about a fading rock star wondering if it was all worth it. This was the last song done by the Mark II line up, before their brief reunion later on. A song I just want to hear over and over.
Glad you enjoyed bro. These guys bring the house down every time

Going to see Deep Purple next week!!
Love this album!
Ian Gillan with some proto metal rap..
Great closer from my favourite Deep Purple album.
Jon Lord was a beast!

Yes! Someone who knows and understands the song. Not many people do. Even casual Purple fans, for some reason.
Gracias por apreciar a una de las mejores bandas del mundo!!😊
💜💜💜💜💜

Loved FIREBALL! Played it to death back when it out!❤
This is stupendous!
Deep Purple unglued 🎸
DEEP PURPLE NUNCA DECEPCIONA!!💜💜🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rock and roll !!
I remember years ago one night jamming tunes that by the time I got to this one I had it cranked up so loud, this one brought the cops out! I remember telling them I just wanted to FEEL it! What a jam.
Could have been written today. Timeless messages.

One of the Best!

That's a great dvd
@@DavidRold-pt3ng sure is; although I watched it on a computer feed Run Devil Run is also a great album. ALSO choba b CCCP

Yes!!!
One of my fave DP songs. Speed King is another good drum track. So is You Fool No One. So many good ones.
jon lord is amazing!
Fireball and Tarkus were the first 2 albums I bought with my own money back in the day. No One Came - Gillan doing proto rap!
Ian wrote some highly entertaining lyrics. Funny and smart.
Backwards Piano Solo at the end! Yay!
There are at least five songs better or than this on on the album, so you are in for a real treat if you like this one and persist with the album you are in for a real treat. In my humble opinion :) Fools and Demons Eye are the top tracks.
Cool tune, great band! Next, check out “Jam Stew (the instrumental),” released in 69. ✌️

Lay Down Stay Down has as ome crazy drumming. Rat Bat Blue has an insane technical solo by Jon.
Awesome reaction dude. This is one of their most overlooked albums next to Come Taste the Band. You should definitely check out the video of Mandrake Root live in London 1970. You can almost hear the foundation of speed metal being laid. Jon Lord's organ solos were just as meaty as any guitar solo.

Check out April from the self-titled album Deep Purple. It's 12 minutes long, and a beautiful combination of classical music and rock.
Uuusual choice for such a seminal band. But u can't go wrong with the Purps

You talked over the 3.00 fill!!!
Rat Bat Blu by Purple is a good one.
The organ solo at the end sounds like it’s played backwards. What Jon Lord did was record a solo on tape, cut the tape up in bits, piece it back together in random order and play it.

Having fun finding the roots of the music you like @L33?
I love love Deep Purple but this album Fireball was hit or miss. Strange Kind Of Woman is a good tune but I wasn't a real fan of this album
Love this band but not that crazy about this song. Would have chosen something else from this album.
Well, go ahead, then 🤗
Man this song is f*****g amazing, I don't know why people say it's a bad album , this is a great heavy rock album from the 70s
THEY GOT THAT BACKWARDS SOUND FROM THE BEATLES
